SNOWBALL HOURS ARE NIGH

Who: Everyone. All y'all.
What: Playing in the snow / snowball fight mingle!
When: Nov 1st-ish, first snowfall
Where: Out Side :)
Warnings: newly discovered levels of snow-ridden violence against your fellow man




There's a foot of snow on the ground, and you know what that means! It means that someone (Elsword) (it's always him) is dragging everyone outside at like 8 in the morning to play in the snow before the afternoon sun melts it. You can say no, but can you bear the emotional weight of rejecting him??? (Yes you can, he's not that hard to get rid of.)

About fifteen to thirty minutes after the initial wakeup call, there are growing snow-walls out in the clearing. They're not sturdy enough to stand up to someone falling into them, but they can withstand most snowball strikes... provided you didn't fill those suckers with rocks. Be careful stepping outside if you're not participating in the snowball fight, because those suckers are flying back and forth. Luckily, you don't have to fly solo – people will probably team up with you to take out your enemies if you ask. Remember that grabbing someone to throw snow down their shirt is a completely valid tactic in battle!

For those who don't want to get pelted with snowballs, though, the designated "safe zone" is by the inn, where snowmen are being built. Despite the footprints in the snow all around this area, this is also the best place to put snow angels, unless you want to make them post-snowball-to-the-face when you inevitably hit the deck. They'll be destroyed quickly in the warzone, though.

If you get too cold or hungry, don't worry, because Elsword has invited everyone to hang out at his house and eat whatever's in the fridge (mostly fish), as long as no one breaks anything. There's also the inn if you're feeling a little less like partying with everyone else.

Have fun, don't concuss each other with rocks, don't get frostbite, et cetera!

[These two causing a fucking blizzard during a light snowfall, iconic.

Anyway, yeah Gnosis gets beaned, and there's a muffled "mmghrghg" noise as the snow slides off of his face and lodges itself in his glasses. Great. Excellent. He sees how we play here.

He's taking these off, he doesn't need them to see a small Liberi, and he is going to run across the snow and try to dunk a whole handful on top of her head. We play like children here.]

[ You scoundrel!!!!! The second Gnosis gets close to her to dump snow on her is the same second she's going to grab his hand to tug him down into the very snow on the ground. Get buried, nerd. ]

[someone please draw irene in this cg im on my knees

Anyway, whether he's successful in being a shit or not, Irene manages to drag 6ft of bird down into the snow, where he lays for a single second before snapping out to grab one of her ankles. Come down here the snow's just fineβ€”]

[ Of course he succeeds, she's got snow in her feathers, now, thanks. And now in her everywhere as she's being dragged down into the snow with a small "Eep!!", landing on her back and squirming to try and right herself a bit and then...

She laughs. It's been a while since she's had fun like this.

Oh, you don't play fair, Gnosis! Don't you know there's an etiquette you have to follow in a battle like this??

[This is probably what friendship feels like. And also being thirteen again and being able to get away with these things. God, he hasn't actually had a day out in the snow just fucking around in years.

There's a smirk as he takes off his glasses and shakes the frost out of them.]


In Kjerag, there are no such rules. Vinneren tar alt.
