I have never been one to focus on holidays. I take note of New Year's, and I somewhat enjoyed the observation of setsubun, in my home, but Christmas was never particularly important to me. Respect-for-the-Aged Day is... well. It isn't uncalled for, anyway.

That aside. What redeems this time of year is that I'm a little fond of the cold and of snow

...burrow? You don't sound much like a rabbit.

[Liquid sounds amused.]

If you're going to sit in the snow, there are ways to stave off hypothermia. Avoid alcohol, caffeine and nicotine and be sure to eat plenty before you go out there. Also it's best to go out there when you're at peak energy. Hypothermia is more likely to set in if the wind chill is especially sharp or if your clothes get wet. As long as you wrap up, you should be fine even if you're small.

I'm well enough acquainted with your father.

And how do you know that I and not Brother was the one to inherit that trait?

I like to keep on eyes on parts of that man. I was acquainted with him before this place, as well, after all.

...You mean you've been spying on us?

Peripherally... Don't feel bad; I am an unnoticeable thing, so rarely caught when watching.

With that hair you should stick out a mile away. You must be very good.

I am excellent.

No wonder he keeps you around.

I-

Ah. So you are to him as Kadaj is to me. I understand.

I am nothing like that little boy.
