[Video - Friday morning 12/6]

[Sakura hits the journals up in the morning, relatively early; she's in a cheerful, energetic mood this morning, and feels the need to do some playing today.]

So! We got all that snow yesterday. I think it's time to have a little fun!

What does everyone think of a grand mass snowball fight? I'm talking ninja-style, very few holds barred, get 'em however you can! [Pause.] Try to avoid actually causing serious bodily harm, though. The point is to have fun. But other than that, go for it!

The whole village is fair game, but let's at least get started... hm, just to the south, I think. Plenty of space for fun, and we can spread from there!

[Action - Same day, all day]

[Sakura's out there, wrapped up warm and ready for action. It's a beautiful day for shenanigans and she's got more than a few in mind!]

There's only one rule. Make me do any actual work, and I will destroy you! [Translation: hurt someone and she'll hurt you.

She may also be starting some snow fortifications. Nothing like having the upper hand!]

((ooc: It's a free-for-all! Feel free to thread with other folks in this post, threadjack, etc etc. Come get snowy and have fun!))

[Guess who's clever enough to just assume it's an abandoned post ripe for the picking?

... yeah, this flame-haired guy and his monkey with the matching 'do.

He walks right into it, sinking like a bag of bricks leaving only his snow-splattered face sticking out (ah, a good chunk of his head wound up under the snow too, he isn't too tall yet). The little monkey's hopped off his head and landed a safe distance away on the fort.]

[Ilyana emerges from her hiding place, pumping her fist in a victory pose.]

Hehe! Looks like I got you, you little ninja!

[She glanced over towards the red monkey on top of the snow fort, wondering if it was his pet or... wait... didn't she know someone with a monkey the same color as their hair? She carefully knelt down near the trap, but not close enough to sink in, and wiped away some of the snow covering his face.]

Tell me... you wouldn't by any chance happen to have a chef brother with green hair and a green monkey pokemon would you?

[He blinked, cheeks reddening when the snow was brushed away, before the rest of his face turned an impressively deep red. He bit his lower lip indignantly.] WHY YOU— [Oh, hey, a question about Cilan?]

Edited 2013-12-07 13:34 (UTC)

Uh, yeah! That's Cilan. We're triplets. Why, y'know him?

[Pansear, the elemental monkey perched on the fort, perks up at the description of Pansage too:] Pansear-pan!

[Ilyana manages to contain her laughter at his rapid change of attitude, but only just barely. At the confirmation that he was in fact a brother of Cilan (a triplet at that!), Ilyana claps her hands in delight.]

He cooked the most delicious food for me once! Hmm... I always meant to return the favor at some point.

[Everything is high-paced with Chili! Everything.]

Yeah, he's a pretty good cook!

Oh. [So does that mean...] I really like donuts! Cilan likes Castelia cones, maybe you could fix him some fancy ice cream cones?

Oh... I... I don't think I'd really be able to do that. Umm... see the thing is...

[How could she possibly explain that she's always so hungry that whenever she tries to get someone food, she always ends up eating it herself? Well, explain it, and not come off sounding like a horrible person.]

You wouldn't by any chance happen to have something else you might like or need? Other than food?

[Or being no longer buried neck deep in snow?]

[~~How endearingly moe of you, Ilyana.~~

Oh, the snow thing? He got a little distracted by the conversation and prospect of donuts, admittedly.]

Well... Cilan's into a lot of things, you should ask him! There's those subway conventions he goes to— the guy's big on trains— loves movies too, dunno if your world has the same movies, though... fishing? Maybe you could get him some fancy lure—

[Pansear hops down and runs quickly, but lightly, over to where Ilyana is, looking worried.] Pan...!

........ y'know, I can't feel my hands anymore. Or my neck.

Hmm... Well I don't know much about fishing, but I think getting him a Lure would probably be a good way to--

Hmm?

[Oh yeah... she still hadn't released him from her trap yet.]

... Oh! Sorry about that! Here, give me your hand if you can.

[Fun was fun, but she didn't want him to get hypothermia or anything. That wouldn't be very sportsmanlike of her, and would probably break the rule of not making Sakura work to fix up injuries.

With a quick hot breath on her hands, Ilyana drove her arm into the snow to reach for Chili's hand.]

Yeah, a lu— hey, thanks!

[Takes him a second, but hey, something warm and soft and not snow! He'll grab on and kick his legs trying to awkwardly "swim" out of the snow. Pansear blew some fire into the air just around them and the snow there, to heat it up and melt it.]

[Ilyana was definitely alarmed at the monkey breathing fire, but she'd seen dragons do it... so she supposed it wasn't the strangest thing she'd ever seen. But now that she'd finally pulled chili out, her once super soft snow pitfall trap, was now a rather wet dense bunch of snow. Between his body heat, the monkey and his fire, and him kicking his way through, it certainly wasn't the trap it once was.]

Hmm... that's kind of a shame... I'd hoped to be able to use this trap more than once... but I suppose one time isn't too bad...

Hey, lady, once is more than enough! [He'll be shivering and shaking bits of snow out of his vest and trying to fish it out the back of his shirt (no way is he untucking his shirt in this weather, even if it is to get rid of snow!). Should've brought a jacket at least. Man, is it cold! A pair of mittens and a scarf aren't going to cut it, are they?

Pansear, deciding she isn't a threat, comes over to extend a paw for a shake.]

Well it wasn't going to be for you... I just thought it might be fun that now that you've been pranked, to have you join me in watching the next poor person to come along...

[Yes, that was the original plan, let someone fall into the trap, then help them out and watch the next person, and so on until there likely wasn't going to be any more victims. Of course... now there certainly weren't going to be any mor-

Her train of thought was interrupted when she noticed the little fire monkey reaching its little paw out to shake Ilyana's hand. Blinking in surprise, Ilyana reached her hand down to shake Pansear's, before her face turned into a delighted smile, and she clapped her hands in delight.]

Aww, your little monkey is such a gentlemen!

[Even more so than Chili... although that wasn't exactly fair since you can't exactly shake hands when stuck inside a pitfall trap.]

Yeah, but that trap of yours isn't exactly a walk in the park, y'know!

[Chili pouts a little at the implied slight, but it doesn't bother him too much! Hey, she half-buried him, he's allowed to be a little rude. Or a lot. Way more than he was, actually!

Pansear smiles amiably and makes a grateful, but modest sound while scratching the back of his head.]

This little guy's name is Pansear! He's a Fire Type Pokemon.

Hmm... that would explain the way he helped to melt some of my trap... How many types of pokemon are there? Are there any electrical types?

[She was... really quite curious now. She was after all a lightning mage, and any animal that was able to produce lightning from their own bodies would probably be incredibly fascinating.]

Yeah! There are plenty of Electric Types... and there are two t-trainers here in Luceti who t-train 'em! [Sensation of the cold's coming back, well, I guess that's good! He rubs his arms and sides.] Brr... Ash, the super-determined little guy with the red hat and blue hoodie, he trains a Pikachu, an electric mouse from the Kanto region! Preeeetty exotic!
And Iris, my brother's little lady friend with the huge hair, trains a little electric squirrel that flies! Well, glides, but same thing, really.

So, yeah, you're lucky if Electric's your favourite, 'cause we've got a few here right now, both friends of my brother! Go meet 'em sometime.

... just not Iris, I get the feeling she hates Ice as much as Dragons do.
