[ This guy has never seen so much snow. Never. It's a little alarming, truth be told, to find himself knee-deep in snow when he's lived his whole life in a kingdom just a short trip from the southern ocean. He's bundled up in about two turtlenecks and several pairs of gloves, hands on the side of his face to keep warm. It's supposed to be summer. ]

[So... he won't appreciate a snowball to the head from some random direction?]

[knighttildawn.livejournal.com]

[It will catch him so off guard that he will trip and faceplant right into a pile of snow.]

[endlessxsky.livejournal.com]

[Sora can't help but chuckle to himself, but will then bounce over to see if you're okay, his nose and cheeks red from the cold.]

Riku! Rikuuuu!

[knighttildawn.livejournal.com]

[He's already climbing to his feet, reaching to draw his sword to fight off the brute who attacked him so unfairly-- Oh. It's Sora. He should have guessed.]

Sora?

[endlessxsky.livejournal.com]

Yep! What are you doing on the ground, huh?

[He brushes some snow off of your shoulder and from your hair.]

[knighttildawn.livejournal.com]

[He appreciates that, being a touch disoriented from this whole thing.]

What? Oh. Some fiend pelted me with snow.

[endlessxsky.livejournal.com]

[The "fiend" just griiiiins, a grin that definitely says 'I'm up to something'.]

Really? Now why would anyone want to do that?

[this guy has never seen snow period, which is unfortunate. he's familiar with cold, but not the kind that comes with snow, so don't mind him coiled up on the ground, looking for all the world like a simple (giant) snake, his torso and head in the center of the mass of scaled body to try and preserve what little heat he makes. he's in the center of a patch of ground mostly cleared of snow, because once he figured out that 1) the snow was what was making him so cold, and 2) that he was nowhere near his usual shelter, he just settled down right where he was to hibernate until it disappears.

actually come bother him, he might be a DRAGON.]

[knighttildawn.livejournal.com]

[Oh fuck a dragon. A dragon is definitely his first thought. Or possibly some manner of demon, if the stories about the Spades kingdom have any bearing. Good thing he keeps his sword on him at all times, armor or no. He's going to position his hand where he can draw the sword quickly if needed as he approaches the dragon-demon-thing.]

[nagaxel]

[he's completely still, sides not even moving with breath. he might be dead, who knows~?

no he can sense Riku faintly, but only as a source of immense heat compared to the surroundings. it's not enough to bother moving, yet.]

[knighttildawn.livejournal.com]

[The survival instinct is telling him that now would not be a good time to piss off a dragon, when he's clothed only in his normal tunic plus the warmest extra layers he could find and not his armor... But he's a knight. Dragons are dangerous. They're in the middle of town. When he's only a half dozen feet away he slowly, cautiously begins to pull his sword out.]

[nagaxel]

[he can't hear the sword against the scabbard, but he can tell whoever this is has come closer, and he's hoping it's another nice person like the few he's met already, who might be willing to help him find some place close by where he could get warm and stay until the snow disappears. his thoughts aren't that coordinated, more like "warm person close, person help get warm". anyway, he's hopeful, and slowly uncoils enough to extract his upper body and peer up at Riku.]

[knighttildawn.livejournal.com]

[Riku freezes when he's uncoiled enough that he can see human features... Or at least humanoid. Something close to it. He's guessing dragon and more along the lines of demon, now. But Riku's trained for combat, and that sword is quickly held up for battle.]

[daddyhasagun.livejournal.com]

Sir Riku~!

[Kira will always be a little starry-eyed when she sees Riku, since he's a real life knight and all; she's waving from down the street, wearing a bright red scarf and sensible clothes for the weather]

[knighttildawn.livejournal.com]

[He breaks his gaze from the snowfall to look at her, arms crossed in effort to fight off the cold. His nod is more of a bow of respect, as he should give any woman.]

Lady Kira.

i can has grammar

[daddyhasagun.livejournal.com]

[that bow makes her giggle a little as she comes closer]

You look terribly cold. You should wear a warmer coat.

I was debating whether to message you about that typo

[knighttildawn.livejournal.com]

[Aw, don't giggle at his knightly duties.]

Had I the privilege of finding one I would be. But you needn't worry. I'm unused to the cold, but I can adapt.

lolz i caught it afterwards obviously XD

[daddyhasagun.livejournal.com]

[but you're very much a knight!]

I can help you then! I couldn't let a friend be cold when I can do something about it.

lucky you. I usually don't XD

[knighttildawn.livejournal.com]

[Well, yes, but it's not something to giggle at. Unless you're a pretty young lady like Kira. Then he won't say anything.]

Is that so? In that case, would you be so kind as to direct me toward more suitable wear?

[skybright]

[someone is possibly snickering a little at his attire. Sora? she's in her magic clothing. they served her well enough when she was on the mountain in the Land of Dragons, after all.]

You look cold.

[knighttildawn.livejournal.com]

I feel as if my very bones have iced.

[At least he's managing without whining! But he gives her a gentle bow. He can do that even when he's freezing.]

My lady.

[skybright]

Maybe you need some actual winter gear...

[the bow throws her off a bit, but she continues.]

...though I dunno if there's anywhere that even has any right now.

[knighttildawn.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't know. I've had little luck finding any sort of proper clothing.

[Compared to what he's used to, anyway. Sure, he has a couple pairs of t-shirts and jeans, but they're very uncomfortable to him.]

[skybright]

Well... maybe one of the clothing stores will at least have something warmer for you. Or you could just stay indoors!

[knighttildawn.livejournal.com]

[He looks so tempted by that suggestion, but he shakes his head.]

I have been here one night already. I need to head home, though I'm not sure how Dawn will fare in the cold.
