Winter Wonderland [Event]

”Good Morning passengers. Today is day Twenty Four of the month of Catfish. You may wish to look out of the window.”

As passengers wake in their beds they will indeed notice something different about the light. If they look out of the window, instead of the ever changing void they will see white slopes of mountains, flakes of snow alling down around them and frost covered trees zipping past the windows. If they glance at the ICP on the table they will see a message.

Investigating the dressing cart they will find the drawers and cupboards unlocked once again. However, instead of the fantasy-esque clothing of world #25768 they will find thick winter coats, hats, gloves and scarves. There are heavy fur lined boots and even some ice skates.

Entering the garden carriage they will see that the glass dome of the roof has opened, leaving the carriage exposed to a bright blue sky. Any nonsense of the past few weeks has vanished, leaving the carriage pristine. Not that that is easy to notice as it is covered in a thick layer of snow. The paths are clearer, a light dusting of snow but easy to talk through. Around the paths the drifts are high, perfect for snowman building or a snowball fight.

The streams and the pond in the centre are solid ice. Anyone brave enough to try to find the ice holds their weight for ice skating.

And the ICP message was correct. There is hot chocolate in the stores.

He grimaces.

"Sorry, Madoka-chan. I really didn't think I'd scare you!"

happyends: (songs of praise all very well)

"It's okay, it's okay!" At least that does seem genuinely meant. Even if she did really get spooked, there's no way someone like Madoka could ever carry a grudge over it. Or even feel angry for the slightest moment.

She smiles at him.

"I know you were just trying to pull a prank, right? I'm sorry for being such a scaredycat.." To put it lightly. "I think I'll be fine as long as I just sit down for a moment.."
stealsyourheart: (my first crush)

[personal profile] stealsyourheart 2019-12-22 03:27 pm (UTC)(link)
"Yeah." He smiles at her.

"Why don't we find someplace warm to sit?"
happyends: (i'll explain all i know)

[personal profile] happyends 2019-12-22 05:51 pm (UTC)(link)
She nods.

"Is there a place like that around here? Or do we have to go to another part of the train?" Considering all the snow here, there probably aren't a lot of warm places.. but on the other hand, she's kind of nervous about possibly having ruined his snow fun, so she doesn't want him to have to leave.

"Why don't we head back to the kitchen car? That way you don't get any more nasty surprises." He offers, still feeling bad about how horribly she reacted.
happyends: (i'll explain all i know)

[personal profile] happyends 2019-12-23 06:45 pm (UTC)(link)
The guilttrain just keeps going with these two at this rate, huh. Thankfully Madoka does agree after a moment. He offered, so he'd probably not mind, right? She hopes so, anyway.

And so she does start heading to the kitchen car.

"Maybe we can drink something warm while we're there, if you want..?"
stealsyourheart: (smile for me)

"I saw someone passing out hot chocolate earlier." He offers her with a smile.

"Why don't we go pinch some?"
happyends: (beyond all estimation)

[personal profile] happyends 2019-12-25 07:55 pm (UTC)(link)
"That sounds nice.."

The snow is rather cold, after all.

"Let's do it."
stealsyourheart: (search by moonlight)

[personal profile] stealsyourheart 2019-12-26 12:06 pm (UTC)(link)
"C'mon then." He grins at her. "Sadly, there are no marshmallows."
happyends: (i'll explain all i know)

[personal profile] happyends 2019-12-26 02:40 pm (UTC)(link)
She starts walking.

"A-Ah, that's alright though! Just a hot drink by itself is nice when you're all cold, don't you think..?" Especially since Madoka is most definitely cold. Not even just from the snow he threw at her - she already had been playing out there in the snow for a while before that without thinking of pausing to warm up.. "I think it's really nice that there's hot chocolate to begin with. They said it was a treat for us.."
stealsyourheart: (smile for me)

[personal profile] stealsyourheart 2019-12-27 04:47 am (UTC)(link)
"True! Well, hopefully there will be plenty then."

He grins at her. "It's good of them to remember that we're here for their sake. Bribes are welcome, in such a situation."
happyends: (to walk into the void again)

[personal profile] happyends 2019-12-27 12:45 pm (UTC)(link)
"Huh? Bribes?"

Yes, Madoka is truly too innocent and sweet to even have considered thinking of it that way..

"Isn't it more like a reward?"
stealsyourheart: (ahoko)

[personal profile] stealsyourheart 2019-12-28 01:25 pm (UTC)(link)
"I guess you could think of it as a reward too. But considering we've been kidnapped I'd call it a bribe..."
happyends: (songs of praise all very well)

[personal profile] happyends 2019-12-28 07:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh Kaito, why did you have to call attention to cruel cold reality. He's totally right, of course, but if Madoka would view everything as it was she'd feel way too bad to do anything.. Viewing things optimistically is the only solution.

"I.. I think kidnapped is a bit too rough of a word.." Despite being totally true. "I'm sure the train didn't think of it that way!"
stealsyourheart: (card trick)

[personal profile] stealsyourheart 2019-12-30 01:03 am (UTC)(link)
Look, you hang around with detectives long enough....

"Just coz it doesn't, doesn't mean it's not true." He shrugs. "But hey, hot chocolate is a nice bribe."
