Istas giggled and grinned, even with slightly red cheeks from the cold this was an awesome day. So many people to help make a snowman. "Do you think we could make the worlds biggest snow man?" She asked them.
She waved at Bo. "You'll help too right?" She called to him up in the tree. She wondered what'd it take. As she was helping push the snowball that was getting larger, and larger! If they made it taller than the girl that was 5'7 maybe they needed a ladder too?
"Hum... If we make it that tall do you think we'd need a ladder for the top?" She asked curiously head tilting and curls bouncing. She looked at Zac, he seemed a little miffed. She paused in helping with the snowball rolling to bop over to give him a hug.
"I get called short and shrimp and squirt too." She said hoping to make him seem a little less mad. She was perhaps the shortest one here, but she was 9. "It's not always so bad." She paused then whispered, "Maybe we can get free ice cream out of it later?"

"Geeze and here i thought i was tall." Dietrich was a good 6 foot tall himself, He looked up wide eyed at Bo, which he couldn't help but think 'little bo peep lost her sheep?' with that name.
Dee bit his tongue just in time for THAT one. "Nice to meet you both!" He nodded also at Bo and Lily.
"Maybe it would be good to make the base not too large, we want to make a snowman now a snow globe... any taller i'm unsure if we could lift the next tier up. Unless someone here knows someone taller than Bo here." He kneeled into the snow and began backing one too.
"Naaah Istas... if i had to give you a nickname it would be 'adorable'."
(( OOC edit: Had a awesome time RPing with you guys but i have a mondo headache and need to beck out for now. take care! ))

Okay, Bellonly really liked the colder months for the nice sweaters and fuzzy boots. the snow was pretty and all, but the actual cold? Nyeeeeeeeeeeeh~ not so much. Bell was on her way to the Celtic Cafe(parody of a cafe in my hometown. XD) planning to make use of their large fireplace. And of course the quickest way there was a shortcut through the park.
So there she was, coat, sweater, scarf, skirt, leggings, and fuzzy boots, headed down the snow covered path with her laptop bag slug over her shoulder. As she walked, voices seemed to grow louder. Ah, of course, children would no doubt be making good use of the first snow!
Or....one child and a bunch of over grown chil- yep. over grown children.
Bell smiled and shook her head as a familiar form was spotted. Xavier.
Well, it would be wrong to say she hadn't quite expected that.

"I don't need no stinkin' ladder," Bo said, taking on some sort of gangster accent but mostly sounded like he had a head cold.
The tall boy bobbed his head in greeting to Lily and then abruptly took a photo of her. It was just how he rolled. When Dietrich chimed in, Bo laughed. "They exist," he said, meaning people taller than him. Bo was the kind of kid who had been long and gangly all his life. Now he just had some muscle definition to fill that frame out, and the athletic ability to make his awkwardness seem a little cool.
Almost as cool as it was outside? Nah, probably not.
Another girl was making her way over, but Bo had already slung his camera around his neck and was busying himself with fashioning a snowball.

It was snowing! Later tonight Tallulah would be cursing this weather and the cold front it rode in on when she tried to patrol in her scant fuku, but right now she had jeans and a coat and vegan uggs and was warm and toasty crunching through the snow and up ahead she could see a familiar blonde braid.
Tallulah leaned over, scooped up a handful of snow, and formed it into a ball.
"Hey, Bell!" she yelled, lobbing it at the back of her friend's head. It was the first snowfall of the year, and of course this was appropriate behavior! Snow! In November! A week before her birthday!
Tallulah jogged to catch up with her friend and glanced around the assembled group. "Hi! Sorry about that, I couldn't resist-"

Lily was a bit surprised at having her picture taken, but she did not mind. No, it fun to take pictures at times like this. She turned and noticed Bell and a moment later Tallulah and oh my ... Lula threw a snowball.
Lily laughed and waved at the pair, grinning, before turning back to the group and the snowman making.

She giggled, she was probably the shortest and youngest here but that didn't bother her. She blushed when he said adorable. "Thank you~"
Istas waved at Bell as she arrived and Talluah to. "HI I'm ISTAS!" She called out as they approached she was probably about as excited as Theodore in Alvin and the Chipmunks 2. "We're trying to make the biggest snowman we can! Do you wanna help?" She asked with a grin.
She went back to helping push the snowballs. She giggled at Bo as he tried to do some sort of gangster accent. "You're silly. If we made one as tall as you we might need the ladder." She said with a giggle.
((Hope you feel better Lil!))

...uh... Bell really wasn't sure what to think of the snowball. It wasn't like she got to have fun with snow like,...ever, before, and she really wasn't even all that inclined to start now.
"Hey~"
Ah, yeah. patrol. She was going to have to do some serious convincing of herself to actually go out tonight. Hey...there were no rules about throwing on a pair of leggings under her fuku, right? Maybe a coat.... the last thing she wanted was a repeat of last winter. Guh, she had like....three colds, and that was even after being hyped up on orange juice and getting a flu shot....

"Oh, Bell, lighten up!" sighed Tallulah, brushing snow from her friend's hair with a mittened hand. "Hey, Lily!" she called over to the redhead by the snowman as they approached, and then blinked at the over-enthusiastic blue-haired child.
"Hi to you, too, Istas," she answered with a giggle after a moment. "Well, we've certainly got more than enough snow to make it massive. I'm Tallulah."

Ohohohohohoho Hi Tallulah.
"Please escuse me a moment, Lady Lulu." He offered to his young friend. "I need to do something real quick."
Xavier Avery and Tallulah Cowden were brother and sister. The only thing that separated them from being actual siblings was that pesky blood relation thing. This meant a few things, though.
And the relentless attack on his girlfriend only strengthened his resolve. He slid away as soon as he could, and he seemed not to have spotted him.
Good, good.
Sometimes, she won landing the first snowball of the year. Well, to be honest, most years she won landing the first snowball of the year, But nuh uh. Not this year. He awkwardly used his casted hand to create as big as a snowball he could possibly manage - it was a snowball of love, really.
And so Xavier charged, chucking his snowball right for the teal-haired girl.
"HI TALLULAH WINTER STRIIIIIKESSSS EARRRLLLYYYYY THIS YEAAAAARRRRRRRRRRR~~~~~"
Really. It was love.

Tallulah's hands went up around her ears and she shrieked, part in shock and part in laughter. "Zay!" she exclaimed, rounding on the boy and scooping up a handful of snow as she did so. "Zay you son of a-- I am going to freeze you into the next interglacial period."
Snow in hand, she leaped at her friend and tried to mash it into his hair. "REVENGE IS A DISH BEST SERVED COLD!" she bellowed, scooping up another handful and trying to put it down the back of his coat.
Just like brother and sister indeed. And this was little more than a sibling squabble. They'd be best friends again in under an hour.

Istas wasn't even thinking about patrolling. She was thinking about snow! Thus the fact she was a senshi didn't even come up as she giggled when Xavier made a snowball and chucked it at Tallulah.
"Nice to meet you Tallu....lah." Poor Istas found that Tallulah's name was perhaps the weirdest one of them all on her tongue. So it came out funny, when she tried to say it, 9 year old, master of cute, not master of words.
She frowned, and wiggled her nose as she pushed around another snowball. "Tallulah?" She tried again. At least Dee had a nickname in case she accidentally butchered saying his full name. So did Lily, "Nice to meet you Liliana~!" She said towards the red head with a giggle, "You have a pretty name."
She grinned, there were so many people here. All older but she didn't mind as long as they seemed to enjoy themselves. Plus it seemed she wasn't going to get picked on either. Even better! Considering her classmates tended to sometimes find pleasure in picking on Istas' sometimes over joyful self. It was the snow really, any other time she'd probably been tempted to clam up and hid behind Xavier or Bo since she knew both.

Oh, he was laughing. He was laughing even as he started to get dragged about and assaulted by all sort of various amounts of snow. He didn't seem to care that he was making a complete fool of himself in front of his girlfriend.
"That's what you get for that relentless, heartless attack upon my girlfriend." Oh, this was on like donkey kong.
"Also." There was snow all over his hair. Tallulah always went for the hair, predictably. "How does it feel to get owned by a guy with a broken arm ?!"
He hissed a bit when the snow slid down his coat, but he was quick to attempt to return the favor, trying to keep her at bay with his cast. It wasn't like he had much of a choice, with only one hand !
He was still laughing like an idiot, though.

Lily smiled at Istas, she was so cute and at the compliment her smile widened. "Thank you very much Istas. You name is lovely too and you are so cute," she said with a giggle. She enjoyed interacting with little kids. Singing for them at the community center had been so much fun when she had time to do it.
Lily turned watch Tallulah and Xavier rough house in the snow, with various amounts of snow. She could help, but to laugh at the moment. Ones like the current one, seemed so few and far between.
Lily bent scooping up some snow, before patting it into a nice ball and lopping it at the pair. "Come on you two," she called, "we still got a snowman to finish."
((Gonna call it a night now .. getting late ... will check back in the a.m))

Bell hadn't bargained on a snow ball fight when she'd chosen this short cut. None the less she stood there in somewhat silent amusement. She couldn't be much of a party-pooper. Not when moments of care-free happiness were few and far between.
And now that she'd been spotted by people who knew her, she couldn't just slide off and continue on her own way. That would be rude.
