[So she's been awfully absent from the public view for a while now. Mixed in are the disappointment of not getting onto the draft but shrugging it off, and the whole stagnation she's been experiencing lately due to her inaction. This clearly needs to be fixed as soon as possible, and she has just the way to do it... So now she's out and about, ready to do a little snow shoveling since it's already piled up around the house.

...Suffice to say, she's not having a pleasant time of it. Housemates and visitors alike can see her trying to clear the general vicinity of the house.]


How the hell did this build up so quickly overnight?

[Once that's done and over with, she starts on her usual routine, albeit decked out in her suit of armor due to the chilly weather. One can find her running around the town, stopping now end then at various places--wherever people run into her is up to them.

Of course, there's always bothering her when she makes her voice post on the journals.]


Anyone have recommendations for a hot drink to counteract the winter? I don't feel like taking a cup of coffee to my desk today.

Yea, I do Alia. When you get back to the house I'll show you how to make it. My friend Lando back home called it hot chocolate.

No, I generally don't like it myself. But this was something a friend of mine back home showed me. I've grown rather fond of it.

Best thing for a cold night. Or day, really. There should be some in the cabinet over the fridge. Get some it out and start heating up some milk and I'll be home in about ten minutes.

Trust me.

[Ten minutes later, Luke enters the door with some bags of groceries and heads into the kitchen with a bit of a goofy grin. Hot chocolate is one of the things that makes him go more derpy than usual]

Morning Alia. Got everything ready?

Thanks.

[He had noticed, but he wasn't sure who'd done it. Either way, it was his turn tomorrow :P

He meandered over to the table and started mixing up the drinks.]


Enjoying the snow?

Yea, I know the feeling. This is a far cry from Hoth.

[He passes her a steaming mug, taking a sip from his own]

What's the worst weather you've seen?

I'm all ears.

Sounds like Hoth, honestly. Nothing but a freezing ball of ice, and so cold at night that it freezes metal. Heh, I nearly froze to death there. And the wildlife is nothing to scoff at either.

[He shrugs, taking a long sip from the warm drink]

Windows, even transparasteel windows, were a liability for keeping heat in, so we didn't have them.

Echo Base was built underground. Sealed up tight and hollowed out of the ice on the crust. No need for windows when you've got that. And it was largely hidden, masked as a pirate outpost.

[He shrugs]

And we had heaters, heavy coats, and hot chocolate.

Well, the wildlife, and the near absolute zero weather at night was bad enough.

And we did have to maintain regular patrols.
