There may be people stranded in their houses by the buildup of snow. As this was very likely not the end of the snowfall, shorter winters or not, it would be beneficial to all of us to organize a group that can take over clearing the paths through the village and to the doors of houses and apartment buildings. This isn't a task one person should attempt alone, even using artes or this world's magic. There's just too much snow for that.

Please be aware of new arrivals, also, and the unstable conditions of the snow outside the village, particularly in the mountains.

You could help me clear from the house to the road, then. It should be easier with two people.

[Action]

[wingedreplica.livejournal.com]

All right. Just tell me what to do.

[Action]

[silversnowfall]

First you have to promise to stop and take a break if you feel tired.

[because everyone should do that while shoveling]

[Action]

[wingedreplica.livejournal.com]

Fine, fine. I promise...

[Action]

[silversnowfall]

All right then. Put your coat on and bring one of the shovels.

[Action]

[wingedreplica.livejournal.com]

Okay.

[Action]

[silversnowfall]

[yes, it is. And keep in mind that Nephry had been periodically shoveling this same walk before the storm]

It's best to work slowly.

I think we'd kill ourselves if we went too fast, anyways.

[Action]

[silversnowfall]

All the better not to, then.

[starts shoveling, careful not to throw more snow onto the parts they haven't done yet]

Good plan.

Did you have to do this all the time in Keterburg?

[Action]

[silversnowfall]

The city employs people who do this most of the time. But after big storms, sometimes, or when I find the walkway to my door is starting to look a little dangerous, I'll do it myself.

[against the advisement of her secretary and other underlings]

[Action]

[wingedreplica.livejournal.com]

Mm, I figured. You like to take care of things.

[Action]

[silversnowfall]

It wouldn't do for people to slip and fall on their way to speak with me.

[Action]

[wingedreplica.livejournal.com]

Do you get lots of people coming over all the time?

[Action]

[silversnowfall]

I don't have a lot of casual visitors.

[Action]

[wingedreplica.livejournal.com]

Must be kind of boring then....

[Action]

[silversnowfall]

I don't know many people with jobs in the government who find it interesting. ...Aside from recently, that is.

[Action]

[wingedreplica.livejournal.com]

Huh?

[Action]

[silversnowfall]

Ah...with everything that's been going on with the Score, and treaties...

[Action]

[wingedreplica.livejournal.com]

Were things going well...? I never got to see.

[Action]

[silversnowfall]

...Yes. I think they were.

[Action]

[wingedreplica.livejournal.com]

I'm glad. I knew the world would be okay without the Score.

[Action]

[silversnowfall]

Well...in a way, hadn't it gone on quietly without the Score for your entire lifetime?

[Action]

[wingedreplica.livejournal.com]

What do you mean?

[Action]

[silversnowfall]

I...I'm not sure I know the whole story. But to my knowledge, replicas aren't...weren't part of the Score.
