1st Snowfall

Who: Everyone
Where: Everywhere
Summary: The first snowfall of the year!
Warning: Only if you hate snow and fun

After the (mostly) harmless chaos of Halloween, the city lies dormant for a few days in the aftermath. Otherworldly quests, demonic pranks, and of course, the continued threat of the 13th Hour has no doubt worn down both citizens and Visitors alike. It's time for a bit of R&R and good old fashioned fun. Early the morning of November 4th, the first snowflakes begin to drift gently to the ground as the weather eases gently into the winter months...

By the time the city awakens, a light dusting of snow already lies upon the streets. Responsible citizens emerge to shovel the walkways, but it's soon evident that their efforts are of little use. The snowstorm, though not fierce, continues unabated throughout the day and by early afternoon, a good foot of snow covers Hinoto-Ri. Most have given up on accomplishing anything useful, preferring to wait out the storm, and the majority of shops and businesses unceremoniously remain closed.

The weather clears enough by 2PM to become the perfect atmosphere to enjoy a day off. Laughing children emerge to hold snowball fights in the middle of the streets, snowmen and sleds appear all over Capricorn, and the general atmosphere is congenial, relaxed, and soothing. Feel free to participate in the games or simply to sit with your friends by a cozy fire, playing board games or reading books or drinking a mug of cocoa. If you're particularly altruistic, you may even get a jump start on shoveling off the streets. The first snowfall is always a magical time of year. You almost can't help the feeling that it's... too peaceful.

Sarah mulls that over for a few seconds before replying.

"Is this 'come over to my place and we'll chat', or 'come over to my place and we'll go at it like sex-crazed apes'? Because I can do either right now."

...the hell.

Okay what. Shura is so surprised she stops dead in her tracks and almost gives herself whiplash as she looks at Owl. "... are you serious?"

Sarah raises one eyebrow.

"Should I not be?"

Shura considered the offer for a few moments. For one, she already had a girlfriend she loved very much. On the other hand, she hadn't seen said girlfriend in over a year and had been chaste since then. She was really starting to miss it, need it even, especially with her job at the Penguin's Nest.

"I guess this comes with the no nudity taboo thing? ... Seriously, no strings attached?"

"No strings attached."

Sarah pauses for a brief second and continues, perfectly deadpan.

"Bondage isn't my kink."

Shura rolled her eyes. "I guess I walked right into that one." Still, good thing she had no fanclub today... they would have teased her at the sight of her flushed cheeks.

"You can say no; I won't mind. I was just putting the offer on the table."

Shura replies by grabbing Owl's hand and pulling her toward her apartment, flushed even redder, and not from the crisp air or from the run.

Behind Shura, Owl smiles, a tiny little grin.

Happiness, apparently, is finding out how far the tattoos extend.
