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.

"If you're going to be that way..."
He'll just sit up and start piling the snow on Taro!
no subject
Taro just laughs as he starts being buried, and suddenly there's a golden retriever bounding on Hizumi.
no subject
That's legitimate surprise as he reflexively holds his hands up to keep the dog from trampling on his face.
"Hey, that's not fair!"
no subject
He nuzzles Hizumi a bit, panting softly.
no subject
But he's grinning again, reaching out to scratch Taro behind the ears.

And then, rather abruptly, Hizumi will attempt to roll the raccoon/(dog)? off of himself for a chance at getting back on his feet.

And Hizumi scrambles into a crouch, throwing up an arm just in time to shield his face from the snow.
"-Are you sure you're really a tanuki and not a dog?"
