ϡ - Chapter Thirty; Winter Wonderland antics [Voice|Action]

[ Good morning Luceti if you’re in town today, and probably in the surrounding areas as well, you’ll notice some large lumbering pure white figures walking about some might even be flying. No, no, they aren’t harmful in the least, although the creatures they take after might argue otherwise, and they are not yetis or other such things that come out in the thickest of snowfalls. What they however are the products of one derpy headmaster feeling the Christmas cheer thanks to the effects the Malnosso have put in place and him waking up very early in the morning after the snowfall last night to make said creatures. There will be various mythological snow creatures walking about today though none of them can make much noise or do much of anything, they’re pretty docile actually and if you wanted to you could probably even ride on top of them they won't mind, really! There will be a dragon with icicles for horns and teeth following Helios around as he makes his way into town. He’ll be there for a good portion of the day also making a majestic Griffin, and a snow unicorn. That’s not to say these are the only things that’ll be popping up. Other mythological creatures might be seen around as well. Phoenixes, mandrakes, minotaurs, kitsunes, Kodama in the more forested areas and even Nue. The list is really endless and well Helios has been having probably too much fun doing this. Some of them will be life sized, but nothing too extravagant or outlandish, lets say the tallest would be around ten or so feet tall, while others miniature. They’ll all be moving and just mulling about and you can be sure they’re movements are quite like the real things if you’ve ever encountered one.

They can be interacted with through the entire day with Helios sometimes in accompaniment. And later into the afternoon Helios will be found in the town square with his snowy dragon companion making your standard issued snowmen, each one getting their own complimentary hat, scarf, and pipe. He'll take a break and eventually pull out his journal for a short little network post.

Ah there's nothing like freshly fallen snow to make a good sturdy snowman out of, is there? I used to do it all the time back in Romania. I believe there was even a game that whoever had the best would have to make hot chocolate for everyone...with extra marshmallows. [ A thoughtful hum. ]

I was thinking...has Luceti ever had a snowman or ice sculpture competition? I've seen some extremely good ones around as of late. I think we could have a rather good turn out, quite the competition too, all in good fun though!

[ He may not be able to summon mythica into existence here, without the dangers of the side effects it would impose on his own world, but that doesn't mean he can't build them as an alternative! And because he just has to ask... ] Are there any creatures in your worlds that can control this element or are at least generally associated with it? Yuki-onna is one of the better known ones in mine. A tall and beautiful woman with black hair and blue lips. She's said to be quite cold, figuratively and literally, but she also has a more motherly and good side to her. The Snow Queen is another one, based on Yuki-onnas, and then there's even Jack Frost too. All are very similar in the fact that they deal with this element. And let's not forget Yetis, interesting beings yetis are. They have quite knowledge of mountaineering not that I expected any less of course.

[ He totally knows this from experience guys. Not like anyone is surprised anymore. ] I suppose Santa Claus can work too tis the season after all! I wonder if the people here had anyone like him? Ah, well, left to speculation at this point hm? I do hope everyone has a good holiday though, you can never get too into the spirit of things.

[ Albeit the Malnosso seem to fit that bill at times...but, no, he is not going to let the Malnosso ruin his Christmas not this year. Finally around later in the evening all the snow mythica will go back to being their snowy, sculptural selves, and can be found throughout the village in regal more natural poses. ]

it is a splendid one

Oh, indeed we do. It's not much different from the Christmas everyone is celebrating here. Bright lights on trees, the spirit of giving, blah blah blah! [Eggman laughs.] Ho ho ho! Not to mention the food. That's my favourite part!

Oh, indeed I did, Helios! It was a real blast from the past! I had a few fun card games, not to mention the nibbles!

Ho ho ho! Yes! And most of it's by your own will, too! [It must be this Christmas spirit letting Eggman laugh about this.]

[Eggman grins for a moment and then glances back to the snow-pony.]

Hey! I didn't know you could build things like that anyway. Why do you waste your power building silly barriers when you can bring dirt to life?

[identity profile] notshadowfever.livejournal.com 2011-12-27 08:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[Don't pat it too hard, it might fall apart.]

That's true. But what else can you bring to life? What about, say, [Eggman strikes an exaggerated thinking pose] picking any old material - metal?

[identity profile] notshadowfever.livejournal.com 2011-12-28 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
Oh ho! They really could? [Eggman has a brief image of armies of magical robots stomping across the countryside.] You really should try it out! It could be fun - and besides, metal is more heat resistant than snow or dirt! [He taps his blowtorch for emphasis.]

[identity profile] notshadowfever.livejournal.com 2011-12-29 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
I know a fellow who builds things out of metal who might appreciate them being brought to life. [Eggman tries to look nonchalant, checking his fingernails... or gloves, as the case may be.]
