Fourteen Snowflakes

[sugarwaffo]

[Sugar hasn't been herself lately. More and more friends kept vanishing, leaving the snow fairy sad and lonely. She had gone quiet and lethargic, enough to worry her roommate. The fairy was lying on her desk when finally frustration kicked in.]

AUUGH, what is wrong with me? This isn't what he would have wanted at all!!

[She sits up and walks over to Bunny's letter. She had read over it many times, but now the words sparked

"Hope... Find it and spread it around. Hope needs people to keep it alive, I'm entrusting this job to all of you now."]

Right! That's what I'll do!

[For the rest of the day, Sugar searches through the castle for anyone who looks down or needs help. She'll do her best, Bunny! She's gonna bring people hope!

...Hopefully.]

((OCC: Backdated to the afternoon. Open to action, especially if you want an overeager fairy to try to cheer your character up or "help" them.))

[Have a grouchy looking robot lounging about in the lobby.

...Good luck Sugar.]

[Oh dear, a tricky case! Sugar ponders this scene for a moment. Hmm... what could she do...?

Ah ha! Sugar knows! With a florish, she pulls out her flute and begins to play a light melody. No magic this time, so snow does not fall down, but the music is pretty.]

[whistles_the_blues]

[Sugar, you may have found one of the few ways to actually get to his dying robot heart.

...He'll tilt his head in her direction and listen to the tune for a little until he has an idea of what how the tune is going to go. Then he might actually start to whistle along with it, quietly at first.]

[Chell's staring out a window, looking... well a little hopeless. So many people are gone. Who's going to be next? She'd definitely like some company from a certain snow-fairy. She just doesn't know it yet. ;) ]

[sugarwaffo]

[Oh, it's Chell! She sure looks like she could use some hope. Now, how would Bunny do this?

Oh, of course!

Sugar zooms away to get some supplies from the kitchen. Fifteen or so minutes later, she returns, rolling an egg covered in chocolate sauce. Yes, a chocolate egg should do it. If she had more time she would decorate it with some paint, but a plain chocolate egg should do it. Somehow hers seems to have turned out differently than Bunny's, but Sugar doesn't let that get her down! Hope is hope.

Her destination is marked with a chocolatey path on the floor. Once she reaches the ground near Chell's feet, she hides it on the floor below the long window drapes. Then she flies up, nonchalant except for the chocolate smears all over her dress.]

Good afternoon!

[silentrunning]

[Chell blinks, looking away from the window and noticing Sugar. Even as rotten as she feels, a tiny smile lights her face.]

Hey Sugar. How're you?

[She notices the chocolate smears but doesn't say anything. But just by her presence, the little snow fairy had managed to get a teeny smile. Which is a darn good start.]

[And here's Utena, on her hands and knees, rummaging desperately through the cushions of the chairs and couches in the lobby. If one were to look at her hands, they'd notice that the signet ring she wears at all times, the silver one with the pink enamel rose, is no longer on her finger. How odd!]

[sugarwaffo]

[Sugar hasn't noticed the missing ring yet, but she sees Utena. The fairy flies over.]

Utena! Hello again!

[princelyspirit]

[Muttering under her breath]

...now where the heck is-Oh!

[Looks up at Sugar, both hands gripping the cushion, and just gapes silently for a moment. It's not long until she recognizes the fairy, though; it's just that the last time they talked face to face, she was a good deal bigger]

Oh, uh, hey there, Sugar. Long time no see, huh?

[sugarwaffo]

Uh huh! I haven't seen you in a while.

What are you doing?
