( open ) I won't even wish for snow

Who: James T. Kirk 2.0 & YOU!
Broadcast: No
Action: Yes, planetside
When: throughout December


▹▹ ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS
[ Jim hasn't been in the fleet long, and hasn't really gotten to know a whole lot of people, but still, he jumps at the idea of gift giving. Even if he only gets presents for a handful of people, it'll still be worth it. And of course, this is the first year he celebrates Winter or any sort of Christmas-like season with Victor, so that asks for something a little more special too.

Dressed in winter gear from head to toe (including a beanie, gloves and a thick scarf), Jim strolls through the streets, carrying a few more bags as the day goes on. He's easily lured closer to some of the street stands, and he takes a break every so often for a tasty snack or a hot drink. Otherwise he can be found in a variety of stores, possibly looking like he's having an internal struggle about two different presents for someone, or maybe struggling with the bags he's carrying when it draws nearer the end of the day and he's carrying far too many presents. Oops. ]


▹▹ LET IT SNOW
[ Winter is definitely not Jim's season. He likes warmer and sunnier weather for sure, but still, he doesn't get really grumpy about it, and the novelty of snow holds at least some charm.

At some point he decides to indulge, because why not? He'll be strolling straight through the snow, feet sinking into the deeper parts, grinning and chuckling even though he's probably getting soaked all the way up to his knees. He'll also try to build a snowman, though that proves to be far more complicated than it looks in movies and TV shows. He keeps trying, but for the life of him he can't figure out how to get the snow into a round shape, and he groans when his latest attempt just falls apart and turns into a pile of snow instead. ]
Oh, come on! How can this be so hard?


▹▹ BABY, IT'S COLD OUTSIDE
[ Exploration and hiking will always hold a special place in Jim's heart. Maybe not so much on this planet, simply because of the temperatures, but he does have a very specific destination in mind: the hot springs.

The walk is a little long but absolutely worth it, Jim decides as soon as his eyes land on the surface of the glowing water. Grinning already, he strips down and hops into the water quickly, where the scars of stab wounds on his stomach are well hidden, and the bite mark going around his arm, shoulder and chest only show partially.

He sighs in relief and absolute delight, his whole body relaxing as he leans back, head resting against the edge, eyes closed. He can already feel his muscles unwind, a well-deserved rest after that walk. ]
Now, this is the stuff.

....oh.....

[And now he's at a loss for words.

Luckily he has Ao again who knows how to break the silence. Mainly by climbing onto to the top of the man's head where she fluffs herself before wiggling and then...

Jumping into the water for a squirrel version of a canon ball!]

Ao likes parties.

[He doesn't correct him. Largely because he doesn't realize that it should matter. Ao doesn't care so as long as Ao is happy then that's fine with him.

And she is. She runs up Shin-Ah to balance on his head, preening at the praise she's being given, fluffing her cheeks with her paws.]


There's a lot of food there.
