[Mia's enthusiasm is simple and direct.]

It's snowing!

[something she hasn't seen since that brief detour to the southern tip of the world. It makes her miss home like nothing else. That won't stop her from throwing on her heavier cloak and standing outside in the light snowfall, hands extended as if to catch the flakes.]

It's really snowing! I wonder if it will stay.

I hope it will. I want to make a snowman! [Or a snow dragon. She can dream.]

[voice]

[frost_jewel]

Have you ever done that before?

[voice]

[i_am_not_cute]

A few times! I've made snow angels, too.

[voice]

[frost_jewel]

Is there a lot of snow in your home?

[voice]

[i_am_not_cute]

There is during winter. [Stating the obvious!] But there's not a lot of space around my apartment building to play around in the snow. I have to go to the park for that.

[voice]

[frost_jewel]

Oh, you have an apartment like the ones here?

[voice]

[i_am_not_cute]

Kind of, yeah! There are apartment buildings like the ones here in my world, but the apartment I lived in only had three stories, with one apartment on each floor. But my apartment was a bit more spacious -- we had our own kitchen and dining area and such.

[voice]

[frost_jewel]

I had never heard of an apartment before this.

[voice]

[i_am_not_cute]

Really? I've lived in apartments all my life...
