Yume's eyes went wide as she saw a snow ball coming straight for her. Ducking slightly, it passed over her and hit the tree. Looking back at the snow dropping of the tree, she picked up another ball of snow and sent it flying back at William. He had better aim than she thought as she stepped closer. "Come on William! I know you can do better." She laughed helping him out by using her voice a little.
Sirene wasn't so lucky as the snow ball hit her staight in the face. Not even bothering to call out, she shook her head sending snow in every direction around her. Looking up at Owyln, she smirked. "Fine then. Mother and Daughter vs. Father and Son."She smiled sending a ball back at him as she watched his hand with the other one he had just made.
Yume smiled brightly at this idea. She couldn't believe she was watching her mother act like a kid. This was a first for her as she saw Sirene try and get the snow off her shirt that had slid down. Laughing lightly, she was tempted the throw one at her mom but soon came back to the idea of throwing her other snow ball towards William's arm where he held his ball.

"The looser has to buy more drinks for all of us, deal?" Owyln questioned, pausing in his creation of the next snow ball as he saw the snow ball hit Sirene smack bang in the middle of her face. Almost being a gentleman, he waited for her next shot before throwing the next one at Sirene. If things went too far, then of course his side could always give in and buy drinks again. His ears flattened against his head though, the fluffy excuse for a tail behind him swishing a little from one side to the other. Glanceing over towards Cera, the man smiled a little more, watching the little girl throughly enjoying herself out in the snow.
William had almost forgotten about the drinks, his having been put down on the bench beside him. Realising now that they must have been filled with snow from the few snow balls, he picked up the small ball his dad had deposited upon the bench. Unforuntly, just as he was about to throw the snow ball, Yume's landed smack bang against his ear. Barely even deciding to brush the large chuck of snow that was melting ontop of his scarf, he threw the small snow ball back. His aim being far more accurate this time, but still slightly off.
Cera gurgled happily, raising her fist as she shaked it rapidly to one side and then the other as Sirene got hit. She shuffled a little, adjusting herself within the cold snowy base, before she leant her back up against the dog which was far warmer than the little girl had expected. So, she turned, nuzzleing back into the dogs fur before watching the snow fight once more. She frowned, noticing as her brother was hit, before giggleing as she saw he wasn't hurt - happy that he could still be happy despite the hit.
William's chin stayed locked down towards the ground. The boy keeping his smile, brushing away the snow off his ear with the side of his sleeve. His large wings stretched out, a few mottled feathers falling towards the floor, tainting the snow with the odd patch of grey beneath the little wooden bench. It was then, and only then, did he drag himself to his feet - no one could face a snow ball fight sitting down he decided. So therefore it was his turn to stand up and face the music.
"And shall we say the looser is the person who gets the most hits?" Owyln questioned, dragging his palm back, until the snow ball he had within his hand went flying over towards the woman once more. Not aiming for her face, but the same place she had been wiping off snow a few moments earlier, trying his best to catch her off guard - the man half being determined to win this one as he started on creating two new snow balls again.

"Deal!" Sirene called out stepping to the side as the snow ball passed her arm. She wasn't about to lose to him as she threw a large ball back at his chest. She may have been older than her daughter but that didn't mean that she was slower as both herself and Yume dodged the on coming balls.
Yume giggled lightly, happy to see William stand up to really get into the fight as she stepped to the side. She had a plan and was planning on taking the fight on her side as she picked up snow and formed it into a ball. Quickly, she sent it back at him as she felt one land on her arm just after she let go. "Not bad William. She called out smiling to let him know where she was.
"Is that all you got Owyln?" Sirene smiled as she threw a newly formed ball in her hand, up and down waiting for a time to throw it at him in return for the one in her face.

"No way" he called, taking the shot in his chest. The man looked down towards his jumper, the sticky snow substance having now stuck to his jumper. Letting his ear twitch slightly, he was never really one for competitive sports and normally lost down to his best friend when it came to anything physical. Though, set Owyln down onto something logical, then the polar bear anthro would wiz through it like the quiz were nothing. Saying that, he wasn't made for sports anyway, being medium height with a lanky build.
William felt the ball hit his side, the snow sliding off his coat once more. Yet, he closed his eyes for a few moments, determined to work out exactly where the sound was from. He couldn't see anything but it had heightened his strength for listening, being able to pick up most things and work out where they were from was one of his specialities. So, the boy half opened his clear blue eyes again, using the snow ball that his dad had made - he threw it right over towards Yume. Praying he had found her this time.
"Bai bai, Yu yu!" Cera called out happily, acting almost like a referee for a game which appeared to have no rules. She giggled happily, her ears twitching, causing her ear muffs to fall down towards her shoulders - exposing the large black ears to the cold air. Not that Cera really cared, she was enjoying this game far too much, happily chanting as she threw one fist from one side to the other - almost like a football fan would cheer for his favourite team.
William chuckled, a strange sound that normally wouldn't ever emit from the angels throat unless he really was happy. Listening to his sister cheer him on like that helped, his halo finding itself leaning right over, the two braids that he had plaited from his long hair now hanging down by either side of his shoulders. It had only been a week since he had told Yume everything, but his chest felt a lot lighter now - no longer having the weight of not being able to tell her exactly his feelings hanging over his halo anymore.
"Id like to see you try to do better" Owyln added, with a smirk, bending down to create the next two snow balls beside him. He realised he was acting like a total child, but for once he didn't really care, he was with two close friends and his son and daughter - who neither of them really cared how he acted either. So acting like a child or an adult it didn't really matter. Though he did make a mental note to create a snow man sometime soon after the fight with Cera.

"The show me you are worth it." Sirene smirked throwing the snowball while he was leaning over to his his head. She had played her fair share of sports and took everything she knew of them to just a simple game of throw and dodge as she watched the snow hit him.
Yume smiled hearing little Cera call out for her as well. She was watching the little neko so much that she didn't notice the ball till it was too late and ended up hitting her in the face. "MEOW!" She called out falling back into a snow drift behind her. Shaking her head, her braids went side to side as her ears stood up. He had hit her straight on and hard enough to send her off her feet. Smiling, she picked up two hand fulls of snow and created a larger ball sending it towards him.
Sirene moved closer as she formed another ball in her hand. Moving down to kneel in the snow, she watched Owyln closely waiting for a conter attack at her. She was happy to see him playing along. It was her first time seeing both of them smiling and laughing in a long time. Her tail dug deep into the snow pile behind her and wrapped around drawing more snow just in her reach when she needed it.

"Fine, will do" Owyln whispered with a soft smile. Picking up both the snow balls instead of just the one. Throwing the first one at her, then the second, making sure if she dodged one then the other one would certainly hit - no matter what happened. The polar bear anthro wagged his tail, his ears twitching right back towards his head. Unforuntly, being a tad overly cocky, the man hadn't seen the snow ball flying towards his head. The large round ball hitting him square in the nose before sliding off his face and down onto the floor.
Cera gingerly blinked, watching her father get hit square in the face, the little girl not knowing whether she should giggle or stay silent. She decided for the latter, raising her paw still in a slight wave, a laugh twitching at her lips. Yet, she forced herself to keep it down, shuffleing a little where she sat to get comfortable once more. Sure, snow was fun to play with, but it also melted if you sat on it for a while - her rump becoming drenched with the melted snow. She didn't complain - for now anyway.
William raised one wing to take the shot. The snow brushing down his mottled feathers again - taking quite a few feathers with it. Nether the less, the fallen smiled, nervously etching down onto the floor as he picked up some more snow within his mittens. Shaping it into a ball before he threw it in Yume's direction, making sure his throw wouldn't throw her off balence. Well, the shot would have been light, except he had forgotten she had bent down for the time being. So of course the shot went flying over her head.
"Sorry!" William called out, resting his palms down onto his hips, two long braids of hair falling infront of his shoulders along with the mop behind it following shortly afterwards. He didn't notice though, not even as his fringe flocked infront of his eyes. Waiting a few moments to let her shuffle around and get the next snow ball, his wings flexed once more behind him, suddenly stiff these days he pushed them to their max before pulling the large wings back to his sides.
Owyln glanced over towards the shuffly Cera, watching her, knowing full well she was getting wet. So, he decided next time, hopefully she would pelt back a lot of snow at him so he could return a defeat - wanting to make sure the child was ok over the game. He kept his gaze over towards her though, pushing more snow off his scarf and face, rolling up another snow ball within his hand.

Yume pushed herself up out of the snow pile. Shaking the snow out from her hair, she blinked and looked up towards William. Smirking, she stood up and lept towards him landing softly on the bench. "Your turn." She smirked leaping up onto his shoulders, she pushed him back into the snow behind him and lept off landing behind him.
Sirene shook her head watching her daughter before she was hit with the two snow balls. "Ah!" Sirene screamed brushing the snow off her face and arm. She shivered as she formed a larger ball in her hands as she sent it for Owyln's head.

Arafel smiled, crawling over to avery and scooting behind him so she could guide his arm and hand. "Here, lemmie help.. just.. aim and.. fire!" as she mumbled she smlowly moved his hand, aiming to the other two girls then she let him toss it.
She wasn't the best aim herself, but atleast she could help him out some. Though her new position got her hit int he face with a snowball directed at the boy. Making a "gack" noise she fell backwards, frantically trying to get het cold snow off her face. After that was done she layed there playing dead "Avenge.. me.." gaspdeathdramadie
Colette blinked "mom!" she giggled a bit at the womans over-dramaticness. Nodding her head, she didn't know what avenge ment.. but.. she saw it on tv. and from what she knew it just ment hit them back for me.
Taking a snowball she chucked it at Sere.
Yuki was bright red, he was trying to hide it.. and he wasn't all too sure why he was so flustered.. just was. and he didn't like it. "u-um.. I..I.. I'm not cute.. not at all..." besides.. being called cute was something for girls wasn't it? He hated when people mistook him for a girl..
His mind told him she didn't really mean it that way.. so he ignored it.
He kept his head down, hoping Hatori and Ayame wouldn't notice his.. condition.

Rime realized she was really embarassing the poor kid, so she let up, saying, "Hey, it's okay. I was joking, hon. And it's okay to be cute, you know. Alida's cute--" and here the girl dimpled at her mom, before Rime continued, "--Avery's cute, Sybil is cute. Ayame's... well~l, maybe growing out of 'cute', but definitely handsome."
Not wanting to leave anyone out, she patted Ritsu's shoulder and pointed to Hatori. "Ritsu's cute. Hatori's handsome." She winked at the dark-haired teen. If I'm going to fluster people, I may as well fluster everyone, she thought.
Avery wasn't flustered, but he was also oblivious to the conversation. He threw the snowball as hard he could in the direction Arafel had helped him aim, and he stayed above the fort long enough to see it fly true. Then he ducked back down and peered over at Arafel. He flopped over, and was leaning above her with his hands on her shoulders, grinning down at her. "If you're dead.... we should give you a good burial, right?" His grin grew wider.

Yuki blinked looking up shyly and looking to everyone she was talking about. He mentally scolded himself, She was complimenting you, you should have said thank you or something..!
Stuttering he smiled up to her "A-Ano, Then Rime-san would be.. pretty then?" he smiled a bit.. in an attempt to return the compliment. He was about to choke, expecially with Ayame there.
Arafel opened one eye, looking at Avery suspiciously "Burial..?" she didn't like the sound of that. Nor the look on his face...

Aqua makes a meep sound, and ducks down, avoiding the snowball just barely, causing it to fly behind her and smack into Sere. She grins apologetically at her, and scoops up another snowball, chucking it in between Arafel and Avery.
Sere shrieks a little as she feels the cold snow slide down her collar, and dances around, trying to shakes all of her out. "Aiee, cold! Cold!!"

A boot nudged at Arafel's side suddenly, a figure seeming to have suddenly appeared- Of course, he hadn't. He was just quick. Blue eyes regarded her curiously, a tilt given to the weremutt's head, "Hm.. I dunno. She seems pretty alive to me." An arch of the brow and a small, warm smile.. Although, it wouldn't last too long. Sooner or later the male would most likely be ducking for cover as well, but for now, Freize just observed the scene infront of him with amusement. "Have you seen Hatori and Spiro?" A hand lifted to run through dark hair.
Hatori snapped back to reality at the mention of the other Sohma's, although he wasn't really listening, his mind decided it was odd for someone to mention so many of them at once.. He regarded the woman curiously, a single brow coming to arch. Him, handsome? Well then. It bounced off rather efficiently, after a certain age, women's compliments were just little things to the Sohma's.. Atleast, that's how Hatori saw it. After all, it didn't really matter what they told them, it wasn't like it made a difference... Besides, Hatori, flustered? What a preposterous idea. The only change in his expression was faint amusement and curiousity, barely visible on the calm teen's face.

Ritsu, sitting next to Rime, felt he should be melting the snow with the way he blushed at the compliment. His face felt hot, even with the cold air. He ducked his head, and kicked his feet alternately into the air above the ground.
Rime made a small moue of disappointment at the lack of any sort of reaction from Hatori, then shrugged, and returned her attention to Yuki. She chuckled when he called her pretty. "I don't know, I suppose I am. I've never really considered it before. But thank you. That was sweet." And the chuckle turned into a grin. She never got many compliments, not even from kids. She guessed she was just sort of... there, most of the time.
Sybil just watched everyone with her strangely unblinking gaze, looking both completely aware and half-asleep at the same time. Her head swiveled back and forth between Rime and Yuki as they conversed.
Avery jumped when Frieze spoke up, and shied away with a bit of a guilty look. He answered Frieze's question with a shake of his head, but the grin quickly returned, and he said, "It's a miracle! Commander Arafel is alive again! Yippee!" He threw a double handful of snow up into the air in celebration, letting it rain down on the whole group.

Arafel blinked, opening her other eye to look up at whoever had just kicked her.. Smiling a bit, her tail making a flopping noise on the snow as it wagged. "It was a direct hit to the face! oh the agony.." she whined, pulling a woe am i pose before rolling over and pushing herself to her knees.
"Spiro fell down thet hill.. then he went off that way, and Hatori is near the tables i think."
Colette blinked nodding "Spiro was laying between the hill and here.. I-er.." she trailed off, relizing she didn't want to admit the fact she had tripped on him. She tossed another snowball, blinking as it hit the blue girl and giving alittle yip of joy.

Avery had gone back to throwing snowballs, they were more interesting than the conversation... even if it was about Spiro... Avery hadn't seen him all day. He began to get curious...
