[Merem frolicking in the snow was a sight that had never been expected to register in her visual processor. Yuki blinks from a distance. But she continues to walk forward, nonetheless.]

[wise_king]

[herp oh hi there]

...hello, Miss Yuki.

[bogusmagicker]

Hello.

[pause. uncharacteristic continuation of conversation.]

. . . Please continue to enjoy yourself.

[wise_king]

Why don't you join in?

[bogusmagicker]

[Yuki considers this.]

. . . That is a request?

[wise_king]

It was certainly a question.

[bogusmagicker]

Ah.

Answer:
The temperature of the body would drop below the point of 'comfort' as arbitrarily defined by most humans.

[wise_king]

Such a thing does not inhibit myself...and I doubt it would be an issue to you also.

[bogusmagicker]

. . . Additionally, I am uncertain as to the meaning of the activity.

[wise_king]

You're looking too hard, Miss Yuki. These type of things, you simply do them because you can.

[bogusmagicker]

. . .

[Yuki stares silently at him for several long seconds and it seems she is simply opting for one of her blank stares. But after a lengthy period of time, she slowly reaches out with one hand and closes it around a snowflake that is drifting down from the sky.]

[wise_king]

Well?

[bogusmagicker]

[She opens her palm. Predictably, there is nothing there.
Is that what is called . . . 'gentle oblivion'?]

I have done it because I can.

[wise_king]

I would be careful though. If you begin using that as an excuse, you will end up like me.

[bogusmagicker]

[What does that mean? is the look on Yuki's face.]

[wise_king]

Just like you caused that flake of snow to melt...the same could easily be done with a human life.
