Belle came up, dressed warmly and already smiling from the prospect of getting to go sledding again. She waved at the girl with bright blue hair that was pulling her sled up the hill. "Hi!"

[charmingwaist]

"Hi!"

Levi waved back with one mittened hand. She didn't know the other girl, but Levi didn't mind. Friendly to a fault.

"You gotta watch out," she informed the other girl as she ascended the hill. "There's an icy patch about halfway down, it'll trip ya up!"

[bookloverbeauty]

Belle grinned as her toboggan slid up behind her and she picked it up, looking at the hill. After a moment she looked back at Levi.

"I'm Belle by the way, we just talked on the network. This looks great, I haven't been sledding for so long!"

All the while she's getting her sled into position, finally getting it where she wanted it and taking a seat. "Okay, push off!" She wiggled a bit to help, but the sled mostly moved by itself, acting quite like someone had pushed it and soon Belle was squealing with delight down the hill, hitting the aforementioned icy patch and skidding off in a new direction, narrowly avoiding a tree before coming to a stop.

She turned and waved up at Levi with a grin "This is great!"

Man I wish I could actually remember how to speak french

[charmingwaist]

"Belle, eh?" Levi said, and then switched languages: "That's a very beautiful name," she said in fluent French, making a pun that Belle had no doubt heard a thousand times before switching back into English. "I'm Levi," she said by way of introduction.

She watched as Belle took off down the hill, wincing when it looked like she was headed for the tree but breaking out in a grin when she avoided it.

"Close one!" she shouted down before pushing off on her own sled, riding it down to meet Belle at the bottom.

Tris, dressed in warm (and sensible) clothes, stood at the top of the hill, staring down it dubiously. She was not entirely sure this was a good idea, but since her siblings were all off being idiots and the libraray here was not, actually, as good as she'd been hoping...sliding down an icy hill atop a piece of neon plastic would have to do.

She sighed, and tucked her hair back behind her ears with mittened hands. Tris pulled her toboggan (snatched from a shed behind the school, yes thanks ever so for the lockpicking lessons, Briar) to the top of the slope and sat down in it.

Well. Here went something.

And she pushed herself over the edge.

"Aaaaaaahhhh!"

[Bumblebee is dressed up in his warm winter gear and sledding down one of the hills at a high speed on his yellow toboggan!]

[Lucy is bundled up tight, wearing a big puffy coat and a adorable hat with ear flaps and a little puffball on top. She's staring at the hill and the toboggans with a rather dubious look on her face.]

Are we sure this is safe?

[charmingwaist]

[Comes up behind her, gives her a friendly (but firm) smack on the back.]

Totally! Just don't hit anything, and you'll be fine.

[jigglingkeys]

[Insert flailing and arm waving here]

Oh, okay...wait, how do I do that!?

[charmingwaist]

Well, just don't point at anything hard when you go down! You can steer a bit with the rope at the front, too. [demonstrates]

Worst comes to worst you can always just jump off. Snow's soft, after all, it won't hurt a bit. Especially in that big puffy coat!
