Who: The Fleet!
Broadcast: If you want
Action: Hotel Corona or Planet Ikke
When: December 7th onward



[After the mystery and isolation of their last destination, the Marsiva seems determined to head to brighter, busier territory. After a long journey through remote, nebula-painted space, speeding along at a brisk pace for the Host ship, the Marsiva brings her Fleet to a sudden and prominent point of traffic.

It seems that the Fleet has happened upon some sort of vacation destination! Maybe Atroma thinks that the passengers deserve some rest and relaxation... or just wants to distract them with something huge and shiny.

Welcome to Hotel Corona! Feel free to enjoy yourselves and enjoy the sites! If a hotel resort isn't your thing, you can head on over to the nearby planet and explore it's icy wonders.

In order words: it's a mingle!! Everyone get in! ]

Go for it. If it's too heavy, I can give you a hand. The head's ready, too.

[He gives the third ball a little nudge with his foot. It's all coming together!]

Though I'm not sure where we'll get the decorations...

[notzubats]

I can get it!

[A grunt and a lift!! Okay so it's not easy, but darn if he's not gonna make sure he pulls his weight. So he makes his way over, and with a heave- he places it on top yay!!]

Decorations? What kind of- [Except unfortunately he forgot the part where you have pack it in, so the moment he got distracted and lets it go, it rolls off onto the ground] - Oh c'mon!

[nerdeology]

[Heh heh.]

Harder than it looks, isn't it? Here, we'll pack some snow in to make it stick.

[He leaves the head on the ground for now and helps Sora lift the body up again, showing him how to secure it properly.]

A snowman wouldn't be much of a man at all if it didn't have a face- then it would just be a decorative pillar. Years ago Sorey and I would make little faces in snow I made, since we couldn't do the full thing- small stones or bits of coal from the fire pits as eyes, nose, and a mouth. Sometimes, if we were sneaky, we could borrow Gramps' pipe. I've read that you can give it clothes, too, if you have any to spare that might fit.

[notzubats]

Yeah. Just a little!

[He appreciates the help, lifting the head back on the body and listening to those instructions]

Really? That's a cute story. [It reminds him of them making faces in the sand out of pebbles, shells and seaweed back home] I dunno if I got any spare clothes, I kinda need them. But maybe there's pebbles and seaweed at the beach nearby!

[nerdeology]

Might be. If we find any, I can fish them out for us. I don't want you to get your gloves wet, or you'll end up with frostbite.

[Mothers reassuringly.]

[notzubats]

[...................................

Just when he was starting to distract himself from the misery that is this planet.]

Gee. Thanks. That's nice of you.

Why are we here again?

[nerdeology]

Because it's good to experience new things.

[And you're still grounded, you need adult supervision.]

Anyway, it's important to know how to survive in cold weather. What if we got stranded one day?

[notzubats]

[Bro you're like two years older than him stfu]

Uh, you'd make snow angels while the rest of us slowly turn into icicles?

[nerdeology]

[maturity and immortality adds an extra few years, shush]

Well, probably. But that's just because you haven't experienced it enough.

[notzubats]

...Experienced it enough?

[No that's not a good thing. That indicates he'll have to spend more time out here than just today]

[nerdeology]

What did you expect? The only way to adjust to anything is by repeated exposure.
