The little cabin was out of the way; the only way to it was a half-hidden branch of the main path - though it was easier to see now, when there weren't so many leaves in the forest to hide it, only a dusting of snow. It wasn't hard to get there once you knew where to look, and in fact it was close enough that from the main path you could hear the

Rainbow Dash raised a brow, looking around her as if to identify where the music was coming from. She had to get out of the Hotel for a while -- there was no way for her mind to be clear when she was within its walls. Also, it was the first snow of the season, and she wasn't about to miss that.
Seeing a small, scraggly path leading away from the main one she was on, the tomboy decided to investigate a bit further. Re-adjusting her dark purple scarf around her neck, she ventured along the path, the music getting louder. She soon happened upon this little cabin, with someone playing guitar on the porch. She dared to walk a bit closer, but froze when he finally recognized he wasn't alone anymore.
"Heh, sorry about that," she said, nervously scratching the back of her head. "I hope I'm not botherin' ya. I just heard someone playing guitar and I wanted to check it out. You're pretty good." Rainbow smiled softly at him.

Zel wasn't, actually, entirely sure whether this was outside or not. Certainly the hotel was perfectly capable of having rooms and floors that mimicked being outdoors quite well - but then the hotel was perfectly capable of quite a lot of things, few of which made any real sense.

She leaned against a nearby tree, her multicolored hair now decorated with the thin, white sparkles of snowflakes. Some fell on her nose and she crinkled it just lightly -- she loved those little bursts of cold against her skin.

He noticed her holding her hand, though, and set the guitar down carefully before stepping down off the porch to come over to her. He couldn't help looking concerned, his mind running through the ways her hand might have gotten that way. "Are you alright, Amelia? It looks like you're hurt..."

She blinked, a little puzzled at first at his approach, only to realise what he was looking at, removing her hand to glance down at the marks across her knuckles. "Oh, that. It's nothing, just the result of a couple of hours training, I can fix it easily enough." she shook her head, preparing to mutter another recovery incantation. As per usual, Amelia didn't think much of the scrape, since she had suffered through worse injuries, many of which Zelgadiss knew of, so she didn't think it would cause much worry.

"May I join you?" Marceline smirked at him, casually brushing some snow off of her red dress that gripped and accented her curves beautifully. "...after all, I'm CERTAINLY not dressed for the weather out here, and I'm getting mighty cold..."

He held out a hand to help her up onto the porch, grinning down at her a little.
