Uh...

[MOSTLY CONFUSION WHICH SHOWS ON HIS FACE. He just got poked in the cheek by a cute little pink puffball. Not only is he still getting used to people actually touching him without him doing it first, but that's just weird. But after a quick moment of confusion, he laughs it off]

Ahahaha, we should probaaably get back to work.

[wilder]

[he groans]

I guess we got no choice if we want spring to come, but still...!

[wilder]

Well no. Aren't these crops supposed to be for the townspeople?

[themistress]

Then why are we doing this work? I don't see the townspeople up there, taking care of us.

[heal_theworld]

It is, isn't it? [Considering her hair is green, and she dresses in green?] It's the color of growing things.

I cannot resist.

[heal_theworld]

[Martel sees the little girl and her-moving computer?-sitting away from everybody, so she sidles over to see her.] It's not that bad, you know. I made one to keep for myself.

[nothingtobelieve]

True.

[Call it morbid curiosity. He'd never learn a thing about this ridiculous place if he spent all his time in his room. As tempting as that thought was, at the moment.]

[wilder]

[He shrugs; Zelos doesn't have anything against the principle of helping a village out with something like this- JUST that the castle is holding the spring he's wanted for MONTHS hostage]

Guess it's the neighbory thing to do?

[huntersdaughter]

[Jo smiles, nodding.]

Of course. [She'll reach to grab a small ziploc out of her small cart and tucks a few into the bag. Because snow = water.]

Marshmallows to go and a cocoa. [She'll hand the cocoa over slowly.] Careful, it's hot.

[huntersdaughter]

There seems to be a bit of that going around. [She'd seen Gwaine wandering around, but she hadn't really talked to him yet.]

Does it make you uncomfortable?

[themistress]

[Oh, but Zelos! Winter is the perfect excuse to ~share body heat~. Anyway, it's not that Mistress has anything against the townspeople -- she would be just as obnoxious if she were being asked to help anyone that she didn't perceive as valuable.

So, essentially, anyone who doesn't fall under the category of "pays tribute", or "fuckable".]

Well, these... villagers hardly seem neighborly.

[accidentalrebellion]

[It's talking to her. WHY IS IT TALKING TO HER. This is weird; mutts don't usually talk. At least, not in full sentences like this anyway.

... Unless this is something new and sick they've managed to cook up. Which wouldn't surprise her. She's still not fully convinced this whole situation isn't somehow....

Her gaze begins to narrow, and when she speaks, her tone of voice has an edge. An edge to cover the fear.]

What are you?

[billiardsplz]

Pokemon. They're from my world and its cousins.

[fanstheflame]

Thank you very much. ... [he reaches out to take it, then realizes--]

I don't have anything to trade you for it. ... Not - not right now. What's your name? Can I get something to you, later? When we're done here?

Got your wings yet?

[doublethefun]

['Cause the blue pony is gonna lead the team over to the area above the farms and then slowly make their way towards the forests.

She works steadily, humming a certain song under her breath while pushing the clouds away so that the sun can shine down and help melt the snow on the fields. Once a while, she'll buck a cloud into nonexistence or use her wings to blow a bunch of them away.

Help out, goof off, make cloud sculptures, play aerial tag, whatever! Because honestly, they've got time - melting the snow too quickly will apparently deluge the little burrows of the cutesy wutsy hibernating animals or something. But most of all, threadjack!]

[someoneto_carry]

Good.

[She grabs the reins and pushes them towards his hands] Hold onto these, it'll help control and steer.

[thebutz]

Yeah true! Okay!

[he shovels some dirt] ...How about I shovel and you plant?

[huntersdaughter]

[She shakes her head and waves off his offer.]

Not that I don't appreciate manners, because they're very nice, but I own the Lux and you guys are doing all the work. It's just my thank you to you guys.

lmao

[doublethefun]

[and she blinks at this unresponsive human, looking a bit concerned.]

Art thou alright? Dost thou wish to return to the warmth of the castle?

[can humans live in the cold anyway? They don't have enough fur, honestly.]

[fanstheflame]

[he doesn't know what a Lux is, but he figures it must be sort of important, if she feels generous enough to do this for everyone.]

Wow. Um. [he blinks a little, then raises his cup in a toast to her] Thank you. That means a lot.

... My name's Gale.

[doublethefun]

[and she'll follow him up into the sky on broad, easy strokes of her wings]

By melting it, we help the teams in charge of clearing the snow.

[huntersdaughter]

It's nice to meet you, Gale. I'm Jo and if you ever want something to eat, the Lux is just inside the lobby. Toward the back. [She gestures over her shoulder, as if everyone can just see through the castle to where she's pointing.]

[doublethefun]

We are tasked with clearing the clouds so that the sun can help melt the snow.

[she trots on over the cloud she grabbed, the one that's parked a couple of feet above the ground] I know that thou canst fly, but art thou able to touch clouds?

[and she hops onto the cloud like it's solid ground.]

[siebter]

How do I use them?

[ Taking hold of them, though. ]

[save_the_souls]

I see. What's the north like?

Ah...I see. At least...it's family here?
