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.

[and she doesn't know how to phrase it, but she'd like to hear from her friends. The ones that weren't in the house with her, anyway]

It might, in some respects, but I wouldn't wish this situation on anyone, especially for the sake of my own convenience.

Theoretically, it would be their job. Though, the matter of payment is void in Luceti, so I see your point.

No one else from Keterburg needs to be here and face these experiments, Professor.

[Action]

Whoever said they need to be from Keterburg? Personally, I'd enjoy watching those Malnosso get their hands dirty for once. It might even be a productive way for Luceti's more notorious residents to spend their time.

[Hah, they'd be doing community service.]

Here in the village, cleaning the paths? [...in a way she agrees, but having them so close at any time...shudder]

...Though perhaps it would be good as a sort of consequence.

It would certainly be a nice alternative to locking them away in the tunnels. They might not take to the suggestion as much as we do, though.

[This translates to: They might say "screw you" and stab you through the gut with the snow shovel.]

[Action]

[silversnowfall]

Well, I suppose they would have to be apologetic first.

[Action]

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

There might be a few ways to persuade them, though I'd prefer if they came to their senses themselves.

[Still fervently sticking her shovel into that snow, ayup. After working with the Order of Lorelei, she knows perfectly well people don't easily stray back to the righteous path.]

[Action]

[silversnowfall]

[getting back to the shoveling herself. Though she's been at this since earlier this morning, so her work is slower]

[Action]

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

[Well, if she's been at it for this long, surely there can't be too much snow left. Once they're done, they can go inside for some nice hot tea.]

[Action]

[silversnowfall]

[this was more about connecting it with the main road, since house 1 is set back in the wilderness basically. A few shovels more and they should be finished]

[Action]

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

Do you think we should continue after this path is done, or would you rather take a break first?

[Action]

[silversnowfall]

I'm...I think I need a break.

[Action]

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

Then, let's head inside for a while.

[Action]

[silversnowfall]

[nods and heads back for the door, holding it open for the Professor]

[She'll follow, giving Nephry a courteous nod as she passes her.]

Thank you.

[Action]

[silversnowfall]

You're welcome. I would offer you something to eat, but I haven't had the chance to get groceries yet.

[Action]

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

That's fine. I had a good lunch before I left home.

[Action]

[silversnowfall]

Would you like anything to drink?

[Action]

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

Some tea would be fine, thank you.

[Action]

[silversnowfall]

[into the kitchen, then, and hopefully His Majesty hasn't used up the last of that, too]

[Action]

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

[She'll follow and take a seat at the table, then.]

[Action]

[silversnowfall]

[doot doot tea. ...Actually, Nephry is not at all a 'doot doot' action sort of person. She's too tired to hum or talk while she makes it, though, and looks very relieved to sit down at the table, opposite Gelda, when she brings the tea over]

[Action]

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

[Not to worry, Nephry. Your exhaustion isn't quite going unnoticed, so Gelda won't be forcing you back out into the cold any time soon. Instead, she'll purposely take her time sipping that tea.

OOC: Want to fade to black, considering your hiatus, or did you have any more plans?]

[Action]

[silversnowfall]

[[ooc: I don't mind a fade to black now, unless there's something you specifically wanted them to talk about. In general I'd like them to talk more once I'm back though.]]
