Elphaba lay in her bed with a pillow clutched over her head that morning. She was so upset she could scream.

It turned out, really, that Colorado wasn't quite as accepting of her verdigris as Fandom. It was a harsh and cold reality check, and while she'd been keeping her cool about it all, that morning she just didn't want to get out of bed.

Of course, when she turned and managed to knock the green glass bottle from under the other pillow onto the floor, she instantly let out an actual cry of desperation and reached for it... and it thankfully tumbled gently onto the floor, undamaged and unbroken. She picked it up quickly and clutched it to her breast, for the moment not caring if her trip roommate heard her cry or saw her in her bedclothes. That bottle was the important thing, that it was safe and sound.

The empath across the hall, of course, felt Elphaba's distress and the spike of anxiety when she knocked over the bottle, though she didn't know the source of that emotion. But it did result on Raven throwing her cloak around her and crossing the hall to gently tap on the door. "Elphaba?" she called. "It is Raven."

Elphaba took a moment, but set the bottle carefully on the bedside table, and then walked over the the door, a blanket pulled around her. She opened the door, her eyes blinking a bit wearily without her glasses. Her hair was mussed, and she looked like she'd just gotten out of bed.

Of course, she had, so there was that. She wore modest pajamas, a long bed dress that went nearly to the floor. "Yes?" she said, pretending like nothing had happened.

She wasn't a good liar.

Rosalind, this morning, could be found on the patio area reading her faery book with a cup of coffee to go with her breakfast.

It was peaceful, here.

Hinata had... finally decided to, you know, actually go out and try skiing. On the beginner slopes. Very very slowly. To the point where the instructor spent a while attempting to tell her to go faster.

It was either go super slow and not fall, or increase her speed slightly and fall and Hinata had... no wish to make more of a fool of herself. (In her own head.)

Besides, even at her pace, it was kinda--fun. The instructor was gently, but firmly, told so and Hinata was left to her own devices.

Tara was willing to give skiing a go.

Of course, this meant starting with a class mainly made up of people ten years younger than Tara was, all of whom were more interested in poking each other with ski poles than anything else. She scooted a bit away from them, hoping she'd at least start going down the slopes before she got bruised.
