Comments

[padadin]

Yet here it is. It seems almost nothing is impossible here.

[There are all kinds of people and creatures with amazing powers - Shiro is ready to accept anything.]

This is your chance for a hands-on experience then. I know how to make snowmen, want to give it a try?

[morphitudinous]

All right. As I understand it, they're large, so it's best to get rolling...

[He reaches down, makes a small ball, then rubs his hand together.]

Right. Never plunged my hands into it before! Maybe I should start small, to make it the rabbit's friend?

[padadin]

[Shiro gives him an amused look, but doesn't comment on it. He's seeing someone discover snow for the first time, it feels special.]

We can start whenever you want - the rabbit is easy. A ball that you shape a bit ovally. But are you sure you don't want to get some gloves first? [Considering his reaction just now.]

[morphitudinous]

Oh---right, of course.

[These are the gloves he usually uses when working on engines, so they're not especially warm and they stain the snow slightly, but it's better than nothing.

His rabbit forms then, looking a bit like a dusty egg.]

...It's a black rabbit. My mother loved them.

[padadin]

[He watches Billy work with attention, not intervening unless he notices the boy needs help - and he doesn't. Shiro smiles.]

Good job. And good choice of colors too. [In-joke, don't mind them.] Were there lots of black rabbits in the place you grew up with?

[morphitudinous]

Not too many. We lived in a large city when I was small, but we'd sometimes go on a day trip to the countryside. That's where we saw them.

And...thanks. It's a favorite color of a few of my friends.

[padadin]

It's my favorite color too. [Now the rabbit is done, he moves to start on a normal snowball to show Billy how to make it bigger for the snowman.] I haven't been to the proper country side in a long time. But we'll get many chances to see all kinds of animals in the different planets.

[morphitudinous]

I'm sure it'll be something.

[He starts to roll along, and most of the grease is off by now, so this attempt looks much cleaner]

Do you have a favorite creature you've seen?

[padadin]

[It's a great attempt! Shiro is done first and waits for Billy to catch up, once again keeping an eye to see if the boy needs help. But he doesn't, he's doing well.]

Back in my world, we visited a planet that was actually a huge living creature. Its dwellers kept and giving and receiving relationship with it.
