Characters: Kidou Yuuto and You
Setting: Floor Thirty-three, in the morning till the afternoon!
Format: I'm starting with actionnnn
Summary: He really likes snow ok he doesn't need a reason to play in it he's a kid
Warnings: None!

[If you happen to walk onto the once warm field of farmland, you'll see that it's covered in a small blanket of snow much like the other open floors. Another thing you might notice is a child sitting off in the distance with a red hood over their head. It's hard to tell who it is from afar, but upon closer inspection, you'll see that the child is wearing those familiar teal goggles. Now, who wears those things other than Kidou Yuuto?

Why is that boy sitting out here in the snow by himself, you ask? Well, for one thing, he isn't exactly alone. Waddling only a few feet away from him is a single little penguin. There are little penguin footprints in the snow around Kidou and every now and then it starts to get too close to the edge of the floor, and Kidou gently picks it up and moves it close to him again. It's hard to say how long he and the little penguin have been outside, but he's not about to leave soon. He's perfectly content with watching the little penguin roll and waddle around in the snow. And if you're really lucky, you'll catch him actually playing with the penguin... tickling it's belly or sides, or hiding it with him in his cape, or maybe he's just sitting with it in his lap.

It's actually really nice, getting away from other people every once in a while. Though, that isn't to say he wouldn't be happy to get some company. And the penguin sure wouldn't mind another person to bother.

(you were expecting this to be a post of kidou making snowmans or something weren't u well jOKES ON YOU HE'S NOT THAT MUCH OF A KID unless of course you ask him to join you in making a snowman or something then yeah ok he will there's nothing stopping him)]

[He's still staring at the penguin the slid into him but it seems it's faster at recovering than he is since it's already jumped up and waddling away. Nodding slowly at Kidou's question, he replies:]

Yeah. I think. What are penguins doing here anyway?

I went to the aquarium earlier and I noticed this little guy all by himself, so I thought that maybe he'd like to spend some time with me in the snow.

Oh. That's... thoughtful of you.

[Because what else is he supposed to say when his friend decides it's a good idea to lug a penguin through a dangerous tower.

He gets up but doesn't stand. Instead, he remains seated on the ground, legs crossed.]

He definitely looks like he's enjoying it though.

[Because right now it's back to sliding around on its stomach as if it didn't knock someone over earlier.]

[Hey, he made sure the penguin was safe :///////

He sits down next to Sakuma, then, and brings his knees to his chest.]

Yeah. I don't think these penguins have had the chance to leave the water before, so it's probably having a lot of fun exploring.

[Except he's more worried about the smart one doing the lugging around.]

Now that you mention it, probably not.

[A pause.]

They're kind of like us, aren't they.

[He tilts his head.]

They're like us?

Well, if you think about it, the aquarium to them is kind of like the tower to us. Sure it keeps them alive but they're still stuck there.

[It's something he's come to realize after spending so much time in the aquarium, watching the penguins swim around endlessly in their tanks. For some reason that only makes him fonder of them.]

[He's quiet for a moment, before nodding.]

Yeah... I see what you mean. [He looks to the penguin, then to the snow. A small smile finds its way onto his face as he idly picks up a handful of snow.]

Though even though we're stuck in this tower, like the penguins, we're stuck here with our friends. [And then he dumps the small handful of snow onto Sakuma's head]

Hey!

[He frowns, but only for a split second, before he brushes the snow off his head. If Kidou wants to play it that way then...

Quickly, he grabs a handful of snow himself and throws it in Kidou's direction. Then he scrambles up and moves a few steps away before his friend can retaliate, chuckling a bit. Even though he's constantly worried about his friends here, he can't argue with the fact that they can still make his day better.]

[Kidou's grin widens as he gets a facefull of snow and he gets up himself, crouching down to get another handful of snow and make it into a nice ball. Then, he chucks it at Sakuma.]

[Sakuma ducks. As he does so, he scoops up some snow and then he's off running away again as he packs the snow into a ball. He quickly throws a look over his shoulder to see if Kidou's following and if he is, well, he has a 'gift' for him ready.]

[Kidou does follow after Sakuma; After getting another snowball that is.

If you think you're going to get away from Kidou Yuuto in a snowball fight that easily, you've thought wrong.]

[Since Kidou's coming after him, Sakuma quickly whips the snowball in his direction. He doesn't wait to find out if it hit or not and he's already making his escape, stooping down to grab more snow as he runs.

Unfortunately, the only cover here is a shed. He makes a quick decision before he heads towards it.]

[Wow that snowball missed him completely it's almost as if you're half blind or something.

Oh wait

If you think you're going to hide in that shed, then he'll wait outside of it for you. He's standing next to the shed, crouched down and making a pile of snowballs. If you dare to come out of there Sakuma, you're going to regret it.]

[While Kidou's busy making snow balls, Sakuma's quietly climbing out a window on the other side of the shed. He's pretty sure Kidou's going to be waiting by the door for him so he's not planning on being a sitting duck.

Quickly he packs together some snowballs before he sneaks around the shed again, trying to make as little sound as possible in order to ambush Kidou.]

[It's a good thing for Sakuma that Kidou has pretty limited vision thanks to his goggles because he heard some crunching behind him and looked over, though Sakuma wasn't in his line of vision.

He goes back to piling more snowballs together as he waits for the boy to leave the shed, completely unaware of the impending doom behind him.]

[When Kidou looked around, Sakmuma immediately backsteps so he's around the corner again afraid that he's seen him. But some time passes and the other boy doesn't come looking for him so Sakuma sneaks a peak around the corner to see Kidou still making snowballs.

Well, this is good enough time as any.

He immediately throws snowballs at Kidou's back one after another in quick succession.]

[He lets out a surprised yell and stands up, gathering his snowballs in his arms to start throwing them back.

You're such a little shit Sakuma, sneaking up on him like that!!]

[Sorry but they're in the middle of a battle now and anything goes.

Sakuma stays around the corner intending to use it as cover. When he does look around, it's very quickly-- enough to get an approximation of where he should throw a snowball.]

You should give up already.

[Kidou lifts up his arm to use his cape as a shield, before chucking a snowball right at Sakuma's face as he looks around the corner, hoping to get a hit.]

I'll never give up until the end!

[Who does he think he is, Batman???

Sakuma ducks behind the corner of the shed again when the snowball comes flying towards him. He doesn't get a break though because it hits the wall and breaks apart, making snow go in his face and hair anyway. He splutters a bit then wipes it off.]

Okay but you'll be sorry!

[Because Sakuma isn't willing to give up either. He backs up what he says by throwing a snowball, aiming for the arm Kidou is using to hold his cape, quickly followed by another one.]

[Okay, even Kidou knows he's going to lose at this rate, so it's time for plan B!!

Which is hiding around the other corner of the shed once there's a chance and thinking of a plan B. Hopefully he can think of something quick...]
