revivalproject | ♤ In a Winter Wonderland

WHO: Cayde-6 and yoooou
WHERE: The Deep End and around Temba in general
WHAT: Snowmen invasion and bar hangout times
WHEN: Mid to late January
WARNINGS: N/A
NOTES: Will match pose pref!

Ramen Bar
There's a crude wooden sign that's been stuck in the snow just outside of the Tower Residences out in the orange district. It has a picture of a bowl of ramen, for those in the know. An extra sign's been hung up outside of the doorway- within the hallway of one of the middling floors should one be curious enough to seek it out. Of course, it might be a surprise for those who frequent The Deep End to realize that it's the bar that's advertising ramen.

It's not a crafty ploy to draw in people! There's a paper sign folded there on the bar counter that proclaims a special for spicy ramen(!) (instant), and (frozen) pizza. Cayde's not far, either heating up some water or throwing darts at the crooked dart board on the wall or tapping at the fish in his little aquarium.

Attack of the Snowmen
Maybe you've seen them around. Maybe some of them even look familiar. Maybe one even looks like you!

They're not the most well-crafted snowmen, appearing like someone had been caught between a hasty job and a desire to add enough detail that would make them identifiable. Most of them seem to be built specifically within an area that a said person may frequent, either in passing or live nearby.

The culprit in question isn't really trying to be that covert about his operation. One might catch him in the act of packing snowballs or adding a few finishing touches in the form of leaves, twigs or pebbles to make your very own snow-you!

Everything went very still as though collectively holding it breath.

"-uhhh, no one but us snowmen?" came the hesitant response.

"Snowmen?" Terra asked, pulling back a little bit. The voice didn't sound as if it was coming from the snowman itself so he pulled back. Sure talking things existed in his world, so this wouldn't really be anything unusual.

Except he couldn't locate the voice.

"Where are you?"

"Pff, what of question is that?! I'm right in front of you!" insisted the snowman.

The voice might not exactly, sound like it was coming from the snowman, but it was still relatively close that it was a possibility. Mostly because the Hunter insisting on this silliness was sitting hunched behind the snowman itself.

"Really?" Terra asked, pulling back. He wasn't sure that snowmen could talk in this world. Of course that could be a possibility. The keyblade wielder knelt back down in front of the snowman and poked its little berry like nose.

This was interesting and he was almost amused.

Cayde stifled a snicker, ducking his face against his shoulder. The snowman wasn't too wide, so it was possible the extra movement could be caught just beyond its peripheral.

"Hey- what're you doing there??"

At the moment Terra had stood but was looking elsewhere. This was weird and he took a step in the other direction to locate the source of the voice before he heard the question.

Turning back around, he looked at the snowman again. "I don't understand, this.." And he approached the snowman and happened to look over it this time.

Ok...

"Cayde? Is that you?"

"Wha- no! -oh, hey Terra," the Exo amended as he glanced up. He gave a little wave with his fingers, like he wasn't just trying to convince the man that snowmen could talk here.

"What are you doing back there?" Terra asked, who hadn't made the connection quite yet. Moreover his brain was surprised to see Cayde crouched down in the snow.

Cayde blinked. "Uh. I was um...looking..for...my sunglasses!" A bit of slight of hand, not that he needed much effort at this angle. "-found 'em!" he said as he held up a pair of shades that he'd brushed through the snow before flourishing them.

"Your sunglasses?" Terra asked. But then Cayde presented them and he didn't think much of it after that. He wasn't sure about asking if he'd heard the snowmen or not, so he didn't. But still, he couldn't help but look around a little bit.

The Hunter even slipped the slightly wet pair on as though to further prove a point, not that it seemed necessary, and the shades had a bit of trouble staying up for the lack of a nose...and well, ears.

"Ahem..." Cayde went ahead and slipped them off, wiping them off before tucking them away. He got to his feet, brushing off snow.

He saw the shades go on, even if they looked a little odd to the keyblade wielder. So he just smiled of sorts and had to think a moment.

"I've never seen you wear those before."

"They're new," Cayde said. "Actually I'm borrowing them from a friend. The way the light glares off the snow? Gotta protect your eyes!" He technically wasn't lying, at least.

"Anyway, what're you doing out here? Not too cold?"

"Ya." Terra nodded. He had noticed that when the sun hit the snow it did turn a bit bright. But then Cayde asked his question and he smiled with a small shake of the head. "It's not too cold yet. What about you?"

Because he's traveled in space.

The Hunter grinned, waving a hand. "Nah. There's worse places than this. Europa's entirely frozen over and stays that way. This is nice. And no blizzards have hit so that's a plus."

"Blizzard." Terra repeated as he thought of his spells with that name. That of course popped a question in his mind, as he was still listening for those snow people to speak again. "Do we have those here?"

Cayde blinked, then shrugged with the accompanying noise that vaguely sounded like an 'I dunno!'

"Best to be ready for anything around here, I guess. I mean, it is still an alien planet."

Terra nodded. Cayde was definitely giving good advice here and if the weather was just going to get worse, it really was better to be prepared than not. That was the idea when he traveled to different worlds back home too, so it made sense to continue that tradition here.

"It's a good idea, I'll keep that in mind."

"You do that. Also, be nice to snowmen."

Cayde gave the Snow-Terra a pat before looking around. "Anyway, I got things to do. I'll catch you around, kid."
