[Rin actually is outside when the storm first hits. As things get worse he takes refuge in one of the things in the plaza - Seventh Heaven, actually - but as it gets progressively worse... well. He's worried about Shiemi that is. So, he decides to head out in the blizzard sometime on the 16th. So you might see him struggling out there, and possibly willing some blue flames into existence around him just to keep warm.

He's trying to keep those a secret, yes, but who in their right mind would be outside trecking from the plaza to C1 in this minimal visibility high snow weather?

Feel free to run into them there, as he arrives at C1 late in the day, or before he leaves in Seventh Heaven]

[And in the middle of the snow on the 16th, a shadow appears. And then there was a wolf following you, Rin, a wolf with...wings?]

[flameson]

[Fortunately or unfortunately, visibility is low right now. So is scent (at least for Rin, win is blowing into his face and all) so he does not notice the shadow just yet. He's too busy being miserable as she trudges through the snow and ice and-

He wills some of his superhot blue flames to try to warm up his arm. As a result some of the snow near him briefly catches fire before just stopping because it is, well, water. Bah]

[dun_measure_up]

[The creature recoils from the flames. Flame-weilding individuals, by and large, are not people he ever cared for. Still...he decided not to let any old idiot freeze to death, and so he moved after the fire died. Despite disliking going upwind, he does so, planting his large frame squay in Rin's path. Basically, kid, turn around.]

There must have been some magic in that old silk hat they found

With Buffy and Raine away on the draft, Jack found his duties very clearly laid out for him: watch over Jilly and Elizabeth as much as necessary, and take care of Fabio. And since Jack Sparrow is practically a Weather Prophet, he knows well before the 15th that they are in for some serious snow

never such a blizzard before

[ snow... again. hermione's getting tired of it. she'd arrived here this time in the middle of snow and it almost felt like the white stuff hadn't melted yet. well, what better way to get used to things than to keep up the routine?

she's getting used to her wand again, after so long of not having it. so if anyone needs help shoveling or wants to make snow angels or men or something, she's more than willing to oblige. she can be found magically shoveling House 25's walkway on the 17th and 18th, staring up at House 26 for a time on any day - generally wondering if anyone's in there - or any number of other mundane tasks on any day... or trying to get her spells back up to snuff in the forest. ]

[After the snow gets bad, anyone still outside might chance upon a wolf (another individual kidnapped from home, if the wings on his back are evidence enoungh) wandering through the snow. Far from hunting, this line individual will instead be aiding any who seem to need it...mostly by leading (or dragging) them towrds the nearest safe location. This continues through the night and the next day; encounter him anywhere, but don't expect much conversation. Also, unfortunatly, despite his current occupation, there is no cask of brandy about his neck. Sorry.]

[Murray has found himself sitting on top of one of the many snowmen in the village, bringing this particular snowman a sense of completion, albeit a macabre one.

The weather's not much concern to him being already dead and all, however once it begins to pick up and he starts to get buried, anyone still outside can expect to pass by a bitterly complaining snowman.]

[cakeblocked]

[Luke was just passing by with two squirming bundles under his coat. He's heading to House 1 for food and warmth, and he needs to get his pets there, too. Otherwise they'll just stay in the apartment, and...

As he goes on, he looks to the side, searching for anyone else who might be stuck out here, and notices the skull on the snowman.

Huh.

He stares for a few seconds before he ducks his head and trudges on. It's not quite a weird sight... yet.]

[evildoorstop]

BOO! Bwahaha! And the 'giant snowy ape' thinks he's scary. HA!

[cakeblocked]

[The BOO does make him jump a little and look back at the snowman, and then he just... stares, slack jawed. First a talking skeleton, now just a talking skull?]

... Snowy ape?
