[ Walking by his house, also wrapped up... ah. This is so weird.

But whatever, man, she'll start doing whatever he's doing, too. brb hopping around in the snow. She's mentally twelve so it's all good. ]

Merem, hi! [ waves at ]

[wise_king]

[waving back in his pristine and angelic way]

Having fun, Miss Taiwan?

[hwamei]

[ That's kind of scary. ]

Uh huh. It doesn't snow where I live. [ she holds out her hand and tries to catch snowflakes ] It looks like you're having fun, too. Do you like winter?

[wise_king]

I'm still unsure about it. It doesn't usually get this cold in Rome.

[hwamei]

So Merem is on the fence about winter. Does that mean you like summer? [ hoppity hop. she looks like a fat penguin in her clothes, so balancing's a little hard ]

[wise_king]

[whoops slipping and landing on his back

but he still speaks up]

I've seen so many summers, I can't quite say I have a preference.

[hwamei]

[ that looked like it hurt ] Are you okay? [ sits right next to him ] I like it, though. But Japan says that ghost stories are really popular in the summer.

[ Oh. Oh. It all makes sense... ] Do all demon hunters have summer vacation?

[wise_king]

[sitting up] Something this small can't injure me irreparably. As for vacation, there's no need. I spend the majority of my time indoors doing what I wish.

[hwamei]

Merem is a shut-in. I see!

But doesn't that get boring?

[wise_king]

Not at all. With the Church, I get new toys to play with frequently.

[hwamei]

There are toys in the Church? What kind?

[wise_king]

The usual. Legendary weapons...holy relics...

[hwamei]

[ haha... laughing nervously a little ] Those don't sound like normal toys at all.

[wise_king]

When you get to be my age, these type of things become extremely interesting.

[hwamei]

I'm older than you, though!

... How old are you?

[wise_king]

Somewhere over 3000 years old, I suppose.
