I did not see much snow before I arrived here.

It is peaceful. Lighter than air, lying heavily on the ground.

Really? 'Cause if you ask me, the best thing about snow is going inside to get out of it.

[It's always nice to see that Rei's happy, but man Louie questions her judgement sometimes.]

[instrumentally]

This is understandable. The appearance of snow necessitates the appearance of cold.

[talkyourwayout]

Yeah, exactly. And sure it's pretty-looking now, but as soon as it gets warmer it's all slushy, muddy grossness.

Also, have you ever had to ride a flying Pokemon in this kind of cold? It's the worst.

[instrumentally]

It is very slippery, too. It would be easy to trip.

[talkyourwayout]

Exactly. I guess I can sort of get enjoying snow from inside somewhere where it's warm, but otherwise? Hard pass.

Even then, I don't really get the big deal? It's just white fluffy stuff. That's like... Feathers.

[instrumentally]

I think I would not mind if feathers fell from the sky every winter.

[talkyourwayout]

You know what? Yeah, I think you would be into that.

And I mean, for me it would be creepy, but I'd still take that over snow.

I didn't see much snow myself, either. The only place we really get it is up on the Knee, and only missions got me up there so I never had a chance to enjoy it.

It's... nice.

[instrumentally]

Yes. I think so, too.

What is the Knee?

I'd never seen it in person prior to coming here.

It's pretty but I don't like how cold it is.

Re: text;

[instrumentally]

The cold is very difficult to get used to.

[thetombkeeper]

It is.

I can see why people enjoy it though. It helps set the mood for the holidays.

[instrumentally]

Yes. A blank canvas on which to decorate.

[thetombkeeper]

As long as you don't go overboard.

There's something relaxing about untouched snow. It's almost otherworldly.

[instrumentally]

There are many such things in this world. Icicles that form on tree branches and bright sunshine that burns cold.

[thetombkeeper]

Yet another thing I'd never seen before. Those are beautiful. It's amazing what nature is capable of.

[crystalmaster]

It is pretty nice to look at, isn't it? It's fun to look at and play in. Not so great for driving or biking in.

[Hey wait, isn't that...Rei Ayanami? Huh.]

Where I'm from, it snows all the time. You can go snowboarding or skiing, or sledding...there's a lot of fun things you can do in the snow.

Also hi, I'm Cloud, I had you for Secret Santa.

Re: [text]

[instrumentally]

Your gifts were appreciated. Thank you.

[nimbuster]

Oh um. No problem. Did you want to know more about snow sports, or...maybe I'll just send you some info.

[Since she doesn't really seem like she wants any more conversation. It's fine - he's no good at conversation anyway.]

[instrumentally]

Yes, I would like to hear more about them.

[nimbuster]

[Oh! Shows what he knows, Cloud guesses.]

Oh okay. Well, sledding is the simplest one, you climb to the top of a hill covered in snow and then sit on some kind of flat surface and slide down the hill on it.]

[instrumentally]

How do you stop when you reach the bottom?

[nimbuster]

You just slide to a stop once you get to level ground. So don't sled into any trees and you're fine. Sometimes if you're going too fast or you hit a bump, you might fall off, but it's no big deal.

It's cold and wet and freezes your tail off.

Re: text

[instrumentally]

It is best to avoid freezing, yes.

[nightyorb]

Kind of impossible when there is snow everywhere.

[instrumentally]

Do boots not help in this matter?
