Julian wasn't paying a lot of attention to the snow. Now and again he had the sense that one of those snowmen was coming after him, and kept using his powers to steer clear of them. After what had happened to Victor, he wasn't taking any chances.

That was why he wasn't exactly surprised when he heard a voice coming from one of them. It was a muffled voice, so he didn't recognise it, but he thought it sounded like a girl.

"Hang tight, I can probably--"

He took a step back and used his powers to search for whatever was inside the snowman, and try to pull it out.

[ He's wearing this by the way! ]

Rose, on the other hand, did recognize the voice. She hadn't spoken to enough people directly to have anyone to confuse him with, frankly. So there was a moment of relief, and embarrassment, upon knowing Julian had apparently stumbled across her.

At least she'd probably not be trapped in the snowman for long.

She felt the creature...if it was a creature...falling apart under Julian's powers, and a moment late she spilled out into a pile of snow and slid several feet, on her back, her arms out on either side as she looked up at the dark sky.

And then she just lay there for a moment, before she let out a little sigh. Damn it.

Julian gave the breaking up snowman an extra blast of telekinesis to get rid of it once she was free. He still thought there was a chance it'd reform and try to sneak up on them again, since these snow dude were basically the city's answer to cheap slasher movies from the nineties. He rolled his eyes and turned, looking for the girl he'd pulled free. He found himself standing over Rose, who he stared at for a minute before offering a hand up.

"You got some kind of knack for running into trouble, girl," he said. "You good? These things are all over. Nasty sons of bitches."

Rose said nothing for a moment as she considered the hand being offered out to her, her violet eyes slightly narrowed. She was half tempted to stand up on her own just out of spite, but what was the point?

"I did not run into anything, it snuck up on me." She declared as she reached out to take his hand and stand, carefully brushing snow off her clothing. She turned to survey the remains of her attacker, considering the pile of snow.

"You don't leave much in your wake, do you?"

It was certainly a unique kind of enemy, but sans any clients, threats, or even rivalries friendly or un to occupy her time with, Kasumi had to admit it was sort of nice. Well, save for the phone ruining her attempts at stealth if she brought it along, but that was solved easily enough. This, however, was something new.

"That can't be comfortable."

Rose couldn't quite hide the relief she felt when she heard someone approach, and after some shifting about her violet eyes spotted the woman walking towards her. Upside down, of course, since everything was currently upside down for Rose. That comment though, got a narrowing of her eyes and a little noise of frustration that wasn't quite a growl.

"It's fine," she managed after a moment to settle her control. "I always spend my afternoon upside down in snow goons. It makes it easier to think."

"Ah, and it's almost evening. Time for the change, hm?"

It wasn't a mocking tone, more one of consideration as she circled the snowman for a moment. It wouldn't serve to be sucked in, too. It really wouldn't be great for her future gloats about being the best thief around when Shepard had to come melt them out.

"No one else stuck in there, is there?"

"I suppose I've been thinking long enough, yes." She conceded, grateful Kasumi hadn't pointed out just how ridiculous her shoddy defense was.

She shifted a bit in the snow man, barely moving at all, and frowned while Kasumi was out of sight. She couldn't help but be relieved when the other stepped back into view.

"If they are, I can't see them or hear them, which means they're probably dead. And I really hope I'm not sharing my think-snowman with a corpse."
