[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. )

Oh, yes, I love the snow! It's so pretty, and you can do all kinds of fun things in it.

Yeah! Did you ever have snowball fights back in your world?

[ It never stays pretty for long in Firo's city, but out here, away from smog and pollution, he has to agree with Grune. ]

It does look kinda nice out here.

[ It would be strange to think of a world where kid wouldn't find some way to play in the snow, so he listens curiously for Grune's response to Seto's question. ]

Hmm.... [For some reason, she feels as though she hasn't seen it snow on the Legacy before. But that can't be right, can it?

She gives up.] I wonder.

You don't remember?

[Blink]

[ Firo can't imagine a winter without the city getting buried in snow, and that's always followed by kids roughhousing in it. ]

But there is snow there, isn't there?

Oh, yes...I think.

[Better ask someone else from the Legacy, Firo.]

You can't remember?

[Has she been away from home that long?]

It seems like somethin' like that'd be hard to forget.

[ If she's been away from home so long as to forget simple things like that, it's pretty frightening. ]

Oh, do you think so?

Yeah! Unless you've been away from home for too long. [Just going to say what they've both been thinking]

And that'd be a nightmare.

[ He's heard of people being in Luceti for 2 or 3 years, but surely forgetting would take much longer than that. ]

A nightmare?

[But Luceti is a nice place.]

Well being in Luceti for a while isn't so bad, Firo.

[The main reason he's saying that is because he actually has friends here and he would rather stay here for as long as possible]

[ But Firo's got things to do back home! He refrains from mentioning that; it would just be cruel to remind Seto of what he was missing in his world.

He looks from one of them to the other. ] ]

Don't all those experiments get annoyin'?

Oh, no. The experiments aren't annoying. They're fun!

[Grune has an interesting idea of what's fun.]

S-Some of them are at least.

[Laughing sheepishly]

Fun..?

[ Call him crazy, but he doesn't find all the strange compulsions and falling moons and explosions to be that enjoyable. He glances between the two of them, looking incredibly confused. ]

Yes, that's right. Like the fairytales!

[Those were a lot of fun!]

Yeah! That one was fun.

[He got to eat a lot of honey, and it was pretty yummy actually]

I guess that one was...

[ And he doesn't want to mention the moon one, so Firo will just fall silent, still looking a little puzzled. ]

[Don't worry, Firo. Being confused is normal when you hang around Grune.

And, in not too long:] Oh, here we are!

[It's that house with the massive garden! Except the garden is currently covered in snow, so it might be hard to tell that there isn't exactly much of a front yard left anymore. Or a backyard.]

[Once they get to the house, Seto kinda stares at it for a moment, just examining ever little bit of it. He's never been to Grune's house before! So with a big ol' grin, he looks up at Grune]

You have a very pretty house!

[ It's good to have a distraction from his hopeless confusion. Firo studies the house, trying to recall if he's seen it before. Smiling, he nods and repeats Seto's compliment. ]

It does look nice.

Thank you! [She heads up the nice, clear front walk (thank you, Walter!) to open the front door.]

I'm very happy to live here with everyone.

[Action] it's okay! they're being pretty icky for me too ;O;
