[Closed] Trails of Snowed In

[fiddlestick]

Who: Trails House Residents + Visitors
When: Deceuer 6th - 10th, during the snowstorm
Where: Trails House
What: Snowed in!
Warnings: Will mark as necessary

It was safe to say that the Zemurian house was always lively, but the heaviest day of snowfall was particularly so. Everyone was home, and some had invited some friends over for dinner or socializing. It was too late before they realized just how heavily they were snowed in, and that they'd be stuck together for awhile. Best to make the most of it!

With all these people, at least it was a roomy house. There was:

The Main Floor which has a living room with a functional fireplace, kitchen (half stocked with useful cooking ingredients and half with "random things the other roommates thought would be cool"), a dining room, and the music room that's been transformed into Elliot's bedroom - because of course it has.

The Second floor which houses Towa, Crow, Machias, and Fie's bedrooms. Some of these rooms have a worrying amount of weapons, try to guess which. There is also a spare bedroom with a full sized bed, for any guests. Too bad you'll probably need to share.

The Attic, which was Rean's room and made up to be comfortable for a harpy. Shiny things are all over the place, and the bed is more like a nest of blankets.

The Basement which contains Randy and Lloyd's rooms. Coincidentally, this is the easiest place to find dirty magazines in the house.

The Cellar, which houses any alcohol that hasn't been drunken already, as well as a 200lbs wild boar carcass. Lovely.

And lastly the Courtyard which is...covered in snow. What else did you expect.

Make yourself comfortable or try to make a break for it. It's gonna be a long storm.

O...kay?

[Elliot seems a little confused by it, but maybe it was just an attempt at a joke that fell flat? Surely no one would find eating people kinky...right....]

Yeah, I'd say so. It never occurred to me when we were in school that she'd be a bracer, but it fits her really well.

[bad_crowmance]

[ Crisis averted. ]

I don't think I would've thought of it either... of course, now that I think about it I can't imagine anything else.

[fiddlestick]

Yeah, not unless there's a job out there for professional napping...

[He says, keeping things light. He knows it might be awkward to talk about "future" stuff with Crow, what with his situation and everything.]

We're gonna have to get creative to figure out what to do with all that meat though.

[bad_crowmance]

[ It's awkward, but Crow would much rather hear about future stuff than have people holding back on him. Just because he doesn't have one doesn't mean he doesn't want to know everything he can about theirs. ]

If everyone takes turns coming up with meals, they should be different enough to keep it from being boring.

[fiddlestick]

I guess. As long as Fie doesn't start thinking she should make field rations, it should be fine.

[If he could go his entire life without eating another field ration, he'd die happy. Truly happy.

He coughs some, covering his mouth as he does so. Ugh. ]

Joking aside, I am happy we're all stuck here together instead of elsewhere in town.

[bad_crowmance]

[ Crow chuckles, shaking his head. ]

Haha, man that's sappy.

[ Still... it's not like Crow disagrees. ]

But let's hope the snow melts before we all get sick of each other.

[fiddlestick]

[Elliot makes a scoffing noise and a friendly eyeroll]

Please, that barely counts as sappy.

[Nothing wrong with acknowledging he rather be around friends!!]

We'll be fine. We're all pretty used to close quarters.

[bad_crowmance]

Haha, honestly... yeah, you're probably right.

[ Not to mention, he does like them. ]

I'm still gonna hope we're not here all winter or something, though. I still wanna throw my party!

[fiddlestick]

[ .... 💧 ]

Do you really think people not living here are coming to that...?

[Just how many people in swimsuits do you want]

[bad_crowmance]

There's at least one or two others I've invited, that's not the point.

[ He gestures around broadly. ]

I don't have everything ready yet!

1/2

[fiddlestick]

...Haha, I'd ask how much preparation something like this actually needs, but....I know you well enough to know better.

[It's Crow, so the answer is an extreme amount of preparation to meet his standards.]

[fiddlestick]

[But speaking of-]

That reminds me though. Thanks to the implant, I don't think I can wear a swimsuit after all.

[bad_crowmance]

What?!

[ The protest is involuntary, the surprise and dismay all too real. ]

Why not?!

[fiddlestick]

[Wow that is some genuine emotions right there]

Because it's risky? I'm fine to be around if it's covered, but if it's exposed it could be contagious.

[bad_crowmance]

Can't you just.... wear a shirt unbuttoned or something?

[ C'mon Elliot, work with him! ]

[fiddlestick]

I could, but it could be risky if it slips off somehow...

C'mon, it's not like you're gonna be missing much.

[bad_crowmance]

Says you!

[ He knows Elliot isn't exactly built like a brick house or anything but that doesn't mean he didn't want to look! He lets out a long, unnecessarily dramatic sigh. ]

Alright, alright. I get it.

[fiddlestick]

Yeah, says me because I have seen what I look like without a shirt.

[And my goddess that sigh was dramatic]

Sorry Crow. I'll find a way to make it up to you somehow, okay?

[bad_crowmance]

Yeah, and I haven't!

[ YOU'RE MISSING THE STICKING POINT HERE, ELLIOT. ]

But seriously, don't worry about that. I really do get it.

[fiddlestick]

Just how much time do you spend thinking about us without shirts...?

[Because seriously Crow he can't emphasize enough how much you're not missing out on!!!]

Good. I don't think a Cwyld outbreak is how you'd want your party to go anyway.

[bad_crowmance]

[ He could address that second part... or. ]

Do you really want to know the answer to that?

[fiddlestick]

[Oh. Oh it's that look. Elliot pauses for a moment, unsure if he's willing to proceed but...]

...Some part of me already regrets this but ...

S-Sure. Lay it on me.

[Goddess he hopes he's bluffing to psych him out and they're not about to enter some weird rabbit hole]

[bad_crowmance]

Let's see... I don't keep exact track but with the exception of Millium-- for obvious reasons-- I've thought about everyone in Class VII in varying degrees of undress at least once or twice a day pretty much every day since I joined the class. As for Towa and Gelica... well. I've known them for a lot longer.

[ Is he aware he stands less than no chance with Angelica on a personal level? Absolutely. Has that stopped him from thinking about her naked? Absolutely not. ]

[fiddlestick]

Wha....



Y-You're kidding, right?

[Everyone?? Once or twice a DAY? Where does he even find the TIME?]

[bad_crowmance]

[ Look, he said he thinks about it, not he-- well. Well, not every time, any way. ]

Nope! Not kidding at all.
