❄ it's quiet
and the snow's beautiful tonight

snowfall;

stage i; none, streets are already blanketed in white.
stage ii; very light and intermittent.
stage iii; light - moderate. lasts longer periods.
stage iv; continuous, heavy snowfall.
stage v; the hardest of cores - blizzards, snowstorms, you name it.

scenarios;

① fuck the police, this is the best time for a walk. hope you've got a nice thick coat on.
② stranded in the buttcrack of nowheresville? weren't you watching the time? now you've gone and missed that last bus out of there. or maybe you're lost, somehow. what do?
③ literally chilling, in this weather, is quite easy to do. sitting around relaxing in it is a wee more difficult, but sometimes much more enjoyable, especially if shelter can be found. the snow is beautiful to watch, after all.
④ the weather's not going to stop you. your snow fort's packed full of ammo and ready to go. those aren't snow angels over there; they mark where the poor souls you've downed have fallen. be careful with that snowman's head!!
⑤ you're about fifty miles from civilization but there's a roof over your head, so never mind the chilly draught, right? right. you mightn't be the only one lucky enough to stumble upon this little shelter, though. remember to share the blanket.
⑥ everyone stuck outside should be jelly. you've got a fireplace and hot cocoa and damn if it isn't awesome. a heater's not quite so romantic, but it'd do. there'd better be a backup generator in case the power trips.
⑦ mix and match, or make up your own.

[ Next thing everyone knows he's going to be boop'ing all the noses.

Is he getting rid of the snow because he knows ~~mom~~ Mercy will yell at him if she looks at the security feeds? ]

Snow check.

[ The wrench stops spinning before she points it at him, wagging it. ]

You're not backing out, are you?

You have to finish maintenance. I have to submit a report.

[Just standard check-in procedure, of course. It's not like he isn't used to the paperwork.]

Unless you'd rather do it.

[ Boring stuff. ]

Yuck. No way. If it's on paper, that's for you oldies.

[ With that, she turns to her MEKA but doesn't start anything yet. ]

But if you need help with it, whatever, I could check in with you when I'm done here.

[ To make sure he really does play video games with her, really. ]

Sure. Check in with me later.

[Said like he needs someone to check on him--she might be able to hear the wry smile in his voice. He offers a raised hand as a gesture of departure, turning on his heel and starting down the hall, further into the base.]

The rec room. [In case she was doubting his commitment to video games.] I'll see you around, Song.

[ She can't see his facial expressions but she can definitely hear the smile in his voice. Flustered at how things turned out, she bangs her wrench gently against the arm of her MEKA... and then talks to her under her breath. ]

His jacket was smelly.

[ Not in the way that was terrible, though. Just old and like those pulse munitions he always talks about. A smell Hana was used to when she participated in military training.

It brings back memories she's not sure what to do with. ]

Be there or be square! You're going down, pops!

[ Ah, now she feels better. ]
