( let it snow )



❄ it's quiet
and the snow's beautiful tonight → a winter open meme

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 ‧:❉:‧

Well it's not like I knew she had blood in her system at the time.

[personal profile] youngestson 2013-02-07 10:42 am (UTC)(link)
[He waves a hand, equal parts irritable and dismissive.] I'm not upset at you, just anticipating the next several centuries of brooding and mooning.

easily: (so I can feel infinity)

[personal profile] easily 2013-02-07 10:46 am (UTC)(link)
[She nods a little.] An unfortunate side effect of the situation, but Elijah will pull through, I'm sure.

[personal profile] youngestson 2013-02-07 10:47 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, but will we? [It is, though well disguised, affectionate mocking.] You plan to stay here and carry on with 'high school'?
easily: (ain't youth supposed to be beautiful?)

[personal profile] easily 2013-02-07 10:50 am (UTC)(link)
I believe in us. And if he's too annoying we will just have to find other things to distract him with. [That's what family's for, right? At the question she nods a little.]

That is the plan. I am tired of living on the run.

[personal profile] youngestson 2013-02-07 11:07 pm (UTC)(link)
It seems Klaus is... setting up headquarters, here. I think I may kill two birds with one stone, or whatever the stupid metaphor is, and see if I can convince Elijah to come with me for a bit. Stop him brooding and keep me company.

Or you could stick around for a while. There's always that option. [She's missed her brother's company.]

[personal profile] youngestson 2013-02-08 12:13 am (UTC)(link)
[He offers her his hand, in a simple, if childish, gesture.]

For a while. If I stick around too long, I'll scare off all your prospective... fun. [Read: Dates] Or kill them. One of the two.

[personal profile] easily 2013-02-08 12:14 am (UTC)(link)
[She takes his hand, nodding her head.] I suppose I can't let you ruin all my fun, can I?

[personal profile] youngestson 2013-02-08 12:16 am (UTC)(link)
Please. I didn't ruin Matt, I broke his hand. I can though, if you change your mind and accept my offer to defend your honor. [He is probably playing, but that doesn't mean he wouldn't, given half a chance.]
easily: (I want to be an idle teen)

[personal profile] easily 2013-02-08 12:33 am (UTC)(link)
Really, he didn't do anything to hurt my honor. [She gets why Matt isn't quick to forgive her, even if it is frustrating.]

[personal profile] youngestson 2013-02-08 12:39 am (UTC)(link)
Did he hurt anything else?
easily: (I wish I'd been a teen teen idle)

[personal profile] easily 2013-02-08 12:41 am (UTC)(link)
My feelings, I suppose. I replaced his truck, I don't see what the big deal is. Elena's even alive -- in a way.

[personal profile] youngestson 2013-02-08 06:32 am (UTC)(link)
They're all so easily... offended. I've never understood it.
easily: (I wish I'd been a teen teen idle)

[personal profile] easily 2013-02-08 07:17 am (UTC)(link)
I suppose it's part of being human.

[personal profile] youngestson 2013-02-08 07:50 am (UTC)(link)
Were we like that? Do you remember?
easily: (Only to find I've come alive)

[personal profile] easily 2013-02-08 08:04 am (UTC)(link)
It's hard to remember but I'm sure I was more sensitive back when I was just a girl.

[personal profile] youngestson 2013-02-08 03:10 pm (UTC)(link)
A different kind of sensitive, perhaps. I wouldn't say you lack sensitivity now.

thank you for pointing out the mistake

[personal profile] easily 2013-02-09 01:46 am (UTC)(link)
Most wouldn't agree with you

[personal profile] youngestson 2013-02-09 03:21 am (UTC)(link)
Most are idiots, Rebekah. Honestly.

[personal profile] easily 2013-02-09 06:30 am (UTC)(link)
Very true. I have noticed that problem.
