༺ Dfu ༻ Voice / Action

[It has already been snowing for a day before Rikku decided it would be interesting enough to go out and see. She really isn't a big fan of the cold. In fact, she would rather be back home in the desert, but it's pretty enough to make it okay to go outside.

She doesn't go far though, but she ends up seated on the ground, right in front of the fountain. For a while she's just playing with the snow, but she's a quick learner when it comes to making snowmen. But she just can't leave it there, she has to add ice to the mix...The end result is a snowman surrounded by a clear ball of ice neatly sitting on the edge of the fountain....and it's a fairly decent size.

Hopefully people like pretty ice things.

Later in the day, when she's back being nice and warm in her room]

I have a weird request. Would anybody be good at cutting holes in some clothes for my wings while I'm wearing them? It's sorta confusing to explain, but it would be very helpful, and I promise I will do something for you in return...since there's no money here. I just really don't want to have them binded again...that hurt.

So you need someone capable of cutting them while you're wearing them? [He remembers that Samurai one and why that might be a problem.]

Pretty much!

And you trust those following these journals to do something that delicate? [He might be a little concerned about your safety.]

Well, yeah. I don't know that many people here yet, but I wouldn't let anyone that sounds crazy do it. [And she likes to think the best of people.]

[Natural ninja paranoia makes him twitch at that answer.]

I'm not entirely adapt with cutting clothing, but if you haven't found someone you know to do it yet, I'll help you.

It's just cutting a straight line. [Except with her Samurai dressphere. The bindings are gonna need to be messed with.] If you don't mind doing it, that would be nice.

Certainly. [He does kind of owe her for dragging him all around the shops and gathering his clothes after all.]

Is there some place in particular you'd like to meet? [Preferably not outside in the cold.]

How about where I live? [Because yelling 'owowow' inside a CH building isn't awkward at all.]

[There's a pause before he answers, not because he disagrees with the idea, but its not often he's invited into anyone's living space.]

If that's where you'd like to meet. I may need directions.

[Well, it won't really look like she lives there. She's used to sleeping in an open room, and keeps her stuff hidden.

She also really just didn't want to get bundled up, and go out today.]

I'm in the Ground building. Behind the Ice building there's a path that leads right to it.

I think I've passed the building before. What room number?

Number nine!

I'll meet you there momentarily.

[And its not too much later that a very bundled up Gaara is knocking on her door.]

[And a very not so bundled up Rikku will open the door. Yes, she makes sure it's nice and warm inside so she can stick her tongue out at the cold snow outside.]

Come in!

[Well, doesn't she look warm? He might just give her a brief jealous look before he's quickly accepting her offer and stepping inside.]

I hope this weather doesn't plan on lasting long. [And he rubs his arms for a brief moment before he's slipping the large gourd of sand off his back so he can pull off his jacket.] Are you enjoying it?

[Well, he can be warm inside now, since she's closing the door.]

I think I heard someone say this is just the start of the cold weather. It'll be like this for a few months. [She actually needs to think about that...]
Well the snow is fun. I never got to play in the snow before here, but I won't be a happy camper until it's nice and warm again.

You?

Months? [And if that doesn't cause a bit of a scowl, before he's shaking it off. He won't be here for months. He can't afford to be.]

How do you play in the snow? [Its new for him too, but then, so is "playing" in general.]

Yeah, I don't like it either. Going through different seasons isn't fair.

Well, you can make snow castles, snowmen, apparently very large bowling balls...though I still don't know what bowling is. There's snowball fights, and probably a bunch of other things.

[Its strange that comments like that seem to make him smile slightly, but that they share the same desert style upbringing makes her somewhat familiar in a place that is anything but.]

I've recently learned what sand castles are, I assume snow castles are the same? And you're able to make clones from the snow? [And he simply shakes his head at the bowling ball comment, he's no help there.]

[That makes her laugh. She didn't think about that.] They are a lot like sand castles! Only easier, and colder. But...clones?

[He didn't think snow could possibly be easier than sand-but perhaps that was just for him. Kirk, after all, had made a rather disappointing looking castle from the sand.]

Are there any built? [He'd like to see a decent version.]

Clones, replicas of people made for the purpose of battle without accruing injury. [Yep, snowmen.]

I made one. [You can tell it was a first try, but she was proud of it.] I can show you after you help me.

If you take the time to make it look like someone, yeah.

[The words remind him of his purpose here and he nods at her, pulling a kunai out of his tunic.] I would like that.

[She gives that a sideways look. She doesn't even know what that is...] I was thinking scissors, but if you think that'll work better..

[He glanced at the kunai and shrugged.] I've always used these to cut things. Even my own hair when I was younger. I'd rather use something I'm familiar with. [He would hate it if he managed to hurt her.]
