What is ─ [ Dany's voice is cut off by the screeching on dragons as they, quiet literally, flop about in a pile of snow. The Targaryen herself stands outside the castle holding her hands out to catch the snow, this is a new experience for her after all, she's never honestly seen snow!

It is so cold, and white, and cold.

The dragons screech some more, play fighting with each other while rolling around in the snow, regardless that it melts slowly as their move. Dragons are fire made flesh after all, their scales are always warm to the touch. ]

This is snow?

[ She inspects the flakes that have fallen on her hand with child like curiosity as more falls on her shoulders and hair. ]

[Zelos was on his way to the house in the city, trying to ignore that he was in snow when he hears the voices and the wing flapping of someone familiar. He'll pause to watch them a bit, since you know, they are kinda a sight. ]

[draca]

[ Dany doesn't notice him, not straight away, she is far too transfixed by the falling snow, watching it melt in her hands. ]

[wilder]

[He notices that, and he decides to take a few steps closer]

Enjoying it?

[draca]

[ She looks up, smiling. ]

Yes, it is beautiful, I have never seen snow before.

[wilder]

Heh.

Then it's a good first sighting, Paradisa goes all out with the beauty.

[persequor]

Dany! Look! Look! It's snowing!

[ Nymeria carves paths through the fallen snow for Arya to follow. The direwolf immediately lopes toward the dragons. ]

[draca]

[ She jumps at the voice, spinning around to see Arya and the direwolf, her expression quickly turning into a wide smile.

Drogon flaps his wings wildly, kicking up some snow to fling at Nymeria as she approaches, Viserion and Rhaegal still tumbling in the snow. ]

I can see that.

[persequor]

Oh, look at that!

[ She points at something behind Dany. And the moment Dany turns around, she's getting pelted with a snowball. ]

[draca]

What?

[ And turns she does, only to let out a rather unqueenly squeak when the snowball hits it's mark. Cold snow gets into her leathers making her squirm. ]

Arya!

[biggestdreamer]

[Takato had cheerfully been occupying himself making snow digimon nearby. He stops and watches this sight for a moment.]

Is this your first time seeing snow?

[draca]

[ Looking up she smiles and nods. ]

Yes.

[biggestdreamer]

[The boy grins.]

Its fun, isn't it? We never had a lot of it at home, but I always liked being able to play in it.

[draca]

The seasons are long in my home, I was born during the long Summer and it is all I have ever known. To see snow here, it is indeed a surprise.

[fantasies]

[Henry likes the first few days of snow as much as the next kid, even if he knows that it can get pretty old pretty fast. He was out tromping around in it, but there's something out here that holds his attention better.

Namely....]

Dragons?

[draca]

[ Dragons. Yes, that word drags her attention from the snow falling in her hands. ]

They are dragons, yes. [ The dragons in question continue to play fight in the snow. ]

[fantasies]

[He looks at her like he just realized she was there. His eyes are big, and it's hard to say if he's afraid or excited. Maybe both.]

Are they your friends?

[draca]

They are my children. [ She smiles at him. ]

[songsandstories]

You have never seen snow? [But she catches herself. Of course not. The Targaryens fled Dragonstone after Robert's Rebellion.]

Winter has fallen over Westeros. The snows have reached the Vale.

dictated;

[draca]

No, I have only heard tales of it. [ And alas Essos is just not... north to have any kind of snow. ]

It has? I had not heard, will the snows reach the Essos I wonder.

dictated;

[songsandstories]

I know not. Have they ever reached that point?

[draca]

I cannot say, I have never heard of the snows reaching across the Narrow Sea.

[ladywinter]

It is indeed, my lady. [Cat is actually smiling. This is her element; a Tully she may be by birth, but the years have made her a Northerner as much as any born there. The snow is a welcome sight.]

[draca]

It is so white and cold. [ She is very much a child right now, amazed by something she had heard about only in stories and never actually seen. For a moment you could forget she walked through flames and brought unto the world three live dragons. Or that she is the last daughter of the Mad King, the last living Targaryen. ]

[ladywinter]

Snow usually is. [It's strange. She never thought she'd come to see Dany like this- like a girl more than a Targaryen. It's in these rare moments when she realizes just how young she really is.]

This is the first you have seen, isn't it?

[draca]

[ Her gaze lifts to properly regard Catelyn, her expression becoming almost bashful. ]

It is my lady, snow has never graced the shores across the Narrow Sea, at least that I know of.
