Story 16 ✐ action

[Suddenly wanting to see the people she knows face-to-face rather than just through the comm, Chihiro has decided that walking around outside to visit people all by herself is a totally good idea. Completely safe even. Is this smart? Probably not, but for whatever reason she can't bring herself to ignore this impulse. With that said though, it's scenario time!

(A) For any CR she knows, if she actually knows where you live, she is knocking on your door!
(B) For anyone in general, you spot Chihiro walking around completely unarmed outside. Stop her and ask what in the world she's doing? Ignore her?

ooc: Replies will be a bit slow. Sorry about that!]

How are you? It's been a long time since we last talked... I hope I didn't scare you.

I've been well, thank you. [This was someone she knew then? Hmm...] Oh, don't worry, you didn't scare me at all. How are you though?

I'm very good!

Just enjoying the weather, as much as I can. Even if it's really cold, the snow is nice.

[She nods, looking at the snowman Namine had been making.] Mm, I agree! It's probably been a while since I've been able to play in the snow like this.

It's really a lot of fun.

Would you like to build it with me? I could use some help lifting the middle part.

Of course! I'd love to help.

Cool! Here, come on over, I'll grab one side and you take the other.

[She goes over, squatting by one side and getting her hands under it to lift it up.] Like this?

Just like that!

Ready? One, two... three!

[And up the snowman body goes! Chihiro wobbles for a second, but she steadies herself soon after and laughs.]

O-Okay, I think I got it!

Yeah, you did! Now we can make the head... that one will be smaller, at least.

Mm, yeah! It shouldn't be too hard.

Okay! Let's get started.

I'm not sure what to do to make the eyes and mouth...

We could always look for a few rocks to use for those. If not, maybe we could try using leaves or something like that.

I wonder if we can find rocks small enough... we'll make it work! But first we can get the head on.

I'm sure we'll be able to find something, but you're right! Before we can do any of that, we need to at least have a head to put the rocks on.

That's true. Let's get that together first.

Maybe I should look for some while you make the head?

Okay! I'll finish making this into an actual ball.

It sounds like a plan! [And Chihiro will be walking around picking up stray pebbles and whatnot.]

Did you find anything?

[Upon returning, she shows Namine a good handful of pebbles along with some small leaves in case the rocks aren't enough.]

Mmhm! I think this is enough to work, but what do you think?

That looks perfect! The pebbles can be the eyes and oh! Maybe we can give him hair or something with the leaves.

Oh, that would be nice! We wouldn't want his head to be cold, right?

Mhmm! And he'd look nicer with a good hairdo.
