Eighth firefly - [accidental video]/[action] - Early afternoon on the 18th

[Accidental Video]

[The first thing to be recorded is Seto falling down on his butt in the snow. His face and hair now covered in snow, as if snowball at hit him square in the face. Which... one did actually. He hadn't seen it coming. He blinks once, then twice, then brushes the cold snow off his already pink cheeks, giving someone that can't be seen, a pout.]

What was that for??

[And then another voice in the background replies] Ah... That's just how ya play the game. Sorry, Seto!

...Oh... [Totally unsure of what game this is, Seto decides to go ahead and give it a try himself. Mimicking what he saw Firo do, he gathers up some of the snow into a ball then hurls it at his target. Luckily it hits right on]

H--Hey! [Firo pauses for a moment, then laughs] ...Good job.

[Seto just grins then stands up, reaching down to pick up the journal] What's that game call-- [The feed cuts off as he shuts it]

[Action]

[ Anyone about town may spot two Luceti residents taking full advantage of the winter wonderland. Seto and Firo can be found racing through the snow and happily pelting each other with snowballs or pooling their efforts to make a snowman that's only slightly lopsided.

It's such fun that Firo's too distracted to try for a pretense of maturity and Seto has overcome his worry about the snow. Though perhaps the loss of fear due to the many layers of winter clothes he's swaddled in, which make Seto bear some resemblance to a marchmallow. The snow splatters on their clothes show that they've been at this for a while.

Stop by and join the fun? Or perhaps get caught in the crossfire? ]

(ooc: Blue is Seto, green is Firo. Action threads will be 3-person threads, the order will be You -> Seto -> Firo! If you decide to reply by video/voice/written, those replies will come only from Seto. )

Aren'tcha gonna do somethin', Seto?

[ He tries to move out of the way of Iria's snowball, but it still smacks his shoulder. He tosses another one in her direction. ]

_{[Iria laughs a little, seeing the snowballs Seto is making, then answers Firo's question.]}

But can't you see? He's obviously preparing to attack.

_{[She dodges the snowball, then she makes two and throws them one by one aiming at Firo.]}

[Iria's got the idea! Once Seto has enough little snowballs at his feet, he stands back up with one in each hand and grins. Since he can't decide if he should aim for Firo or actually try hitting Iria, he decides to throw one snowball at each of them.

This makes things a lot easier!]

[ Iria's first snowball hits before he can duck behind a tree. As he moves away from the second, he's pegged by Seto's snowball.

It seems Seto has a nice idea working, so Firo copies it. He peeks out for just long enough to toss a snowball at Iria and another at Seto. ]

_{[she yells at Firo, when he hides behind the tree.]}

That's not fair!

_{[She got hit by both Seto and Firo, and now she decided to do the same as those two - she makes a few more snowballs. However, considering that Firo can duck behind the tree again, Iria chooses Seto as the target for her snowball.]}

[OH GOD TWO INCOMING SNOWBALLS. Seto tries to make it behind his own tree in time but gets hit by both, one in the back of the head and the other hits his back. To make things more dramatic and funny, he flops on the snow]

I've been hit!

So what if it's not fair?

[ Firo watches Seto fall over with a laugh. But then there's the nagging thought that maybe he isn't completely okay. It can't hurt to check on him. Firo leaves the safety of his tree to go check on Seto, still chuckling a bit. He knows Seto's probably okay, he just wants to make sure. ]

You alright?

_{[But now, when Firo is no longer hiding, Iria aims at him with another snowball. Hopefully, she'll hit him this time!!]}

[Seto rolls onto his back, stays like that for a moment to just stare up at the falling snowflakes, letting a few land on his red cheeks then sits up, smiling brightly at Firo]

Yeah, I'm okay! [He would love to just lay down like he was for a moment or two longer, but this is war! Not time to relax. Nope. He glances over at Iria and jumps a little]

Look out Firo!

[ Firo laughs, completely unaware of Iria's incoming attack until Seto mentions it. ]

Wha-? Hey!

[ The snowball smacks him right in the face. He wipes the snow off and growls in annoyance. That's got to be a lot more unfair than him hiding behind a tree! ]

And you said I don't play fair?

_{[Iria, on the other hand, just stands there with a smile on her face.]}

But that was fair! Don't you know that you shouldn't turn your back on your enemy?

[Despite Firo's annoyance, Seto starts laughing and ends up lying back down in the snow, holding his sides. Okay so it was a bit funnier than he originally thought, but at least he's not laughing at you Firo! He just thinks this whole situation is amusing]

[ Firo crosses his arms and frowns. ]

So's takin' shelter when the enemy's tryin' to hit you.

[ He hears Seto's laughter and glances over at him, feeling a little betrayed. His defeat isn't that funny! ]

What're you laughin' for?

Oh, c'mon. We're only playing.

_{[She grins even more seeing Seto laughing. She walks up to him]}

You okay there?

This is all so funny!

[He lets out a few more chuckles then sits up, palms pressing against the ground to hold himself up] I'm okay but...

[Reaching behind a tree next to him, he grabs two snowballs and throws them both at Firo and Iria. See? He's learning how to do this pretty quickly. Grinning, he stands up] Got you!

Ah- Hey!

[ The snowball hits him right on target, and Firo's startled by Seto's sudden action. Then he can't help but laugh. Well done. ]

Good job.

_{[Surprised, Iria falls down as she gets hit by the snowball.]}

Now tell me, who's not playing fair here...

[Seto beams and stands up, dusting off his pants to get the snow off. Walking over to Iria, he holds a hand out to her to help her get up]

I-I'm sorry...

[ Firo watches Seto be a gentleman and chuckles quietly. ]

At least he's polite to make up for it.

_{[she takes his hand and gets up.]}

...Unlike someone else. _{[she says, looking at Firo. Then she looks at Seto.]}

Don't apologize.

[He gives Iria a confused look. But wasn't she just upset that he knocked her down?]

B-But...

[ Firo nods, pretending to not understand that she was directing that at him. ]

Yeah, he's definitely a heck of a lot more polite than you are.

[ He then turns to Seto. ]

And you should never apologize for a good hit in a snowball fight.

_{[twitch. Someone is starting to get on her nerves.]}

And what was that suppose to mean?

_{[she's still smiling, but that smile doesn't look friendly anymore.]}

I assure you, I am more polite than you could ever be.

[oaehrguoa Oh god she looks annoyed. Flailing a little now, he steps in between them]

L-Let's not talk about this.

Oh yeah? I'd hate to see your version of politeness.

[ Even if Iria doesn't have her guns out (yet), Firo doesn't want Seto getting tangled up in this. He steps forward and tries to nudge him out of the way. ]
