I am so intrigued now! This scene hints at a real depth in the relationships among the players, as well as working very well as a scene in itself. Loved the line "capable of inflicting messy death." And all the physical action in the piece is well delivered.

Everyone here feels real, but Toni especially comes across vivid and his interaction with the others reveal their personality on a deeper level. Their carefree-ness in the snow until he comes along.

As always your pacing, quick and fluid, is impressive.

Ooooh, snow golem FTW! Ha, I wasn't expecting that, but I love the tension of the piece and the action - it's got a lot of excitement throughout the piece.

AAAAAAAAAAH I hope you somehow tie snowed-on palm trees into this same bit, because the suspense is slightly cruel. :D

I love this drabble, though; the completeness of the scene - the situation, Will's character, the weather, all of it - is so profound in so few words. ajfkdklsj *fangirl*
