DAY 51 - [Action] | Some...route! 4th Wall!

[babel_hacker]

[It’s very, very cold.

Well, why wouldn’t it be? This route is practically covered in snow. Wait, where did the snow come from? The weather is just foggy, not snowing.]

Hee hoooo!

[But before anyone can ponder it for too long, snowballs are flying! It’s a snowball fight! And these strange snowmen are throwing them! (Which may be somewhat familiar looking to some people…)

Not that far from them, Atsuro can be seen playing, er, competing in the snowball fight with the Jack Frosts and hiding behind a tree. If he notices someone, he would call out to them before he throw a newly made snowball at his opponents.]

Hey! Get out of there, unless you want to get hit!

[Why is he playing along? Why not? At least the Jack Frosts aren't actively trying to kill people, and he can keep an eye on them.]

[The warning came a second too late for the new arrival. He turned to dodge the first snowball he saw coming his way but - he forgot to take into account the snow already on the ground.

He turned way too fast, slipped, and fell flat on his back into a medium sized snow mound. -- O-Ow . . . there was rock under all that snow, why . . . and it did not miss his head . . . I-It's okay! It doesn't hurt that much!

Like a true sport, he makes a valiant attempt to shake it off. College student-boy attempts to sit up but he has to duck back down. The snowball fight was still in full force! Why is this happening where is he why is it snowing]

[babel_hacker]

[Oh man, too late. The poor guy got hurt and the snowballs are still flying. The "HEE HO" being shouted by the Jack Frosts, too.]

Are you alright!?

[...Only to get himself hit by a snowball on the head. Ooph!]

[kafkaesk]

I- oomph!

[-- gee, that sure was a snowball to the face. He ducks further down this time. Maybe if he stays out of sight... He does raise one arm.]

I-I'm okay! [Really! He is okay! His face is red and maybe he has a concussion, but he is totally okay!]

[babel_hacker]

[Urgh, that snowball kinda hurts? At least his hat stays on. He shakes his head, letting the snow falls off him and hides behind his tree.]

Try heading for the trees!

[kafkaesk]

[Trees? Right, ducking for cover and all that. He manages to dodge a few more before getting to the safety of a tree of his own. Give him a second to catch his breath.... whew . . . ]

What are those things? [He means the living snowmen. Last he checked, snowmen weren't sentient.]

[babel_hacker]

[Yeah, the trees makes for some good covers. Against normal snowballs, anyway.]

Those things? They're Jack Frosts, snow fairies and demons!

Hee hoooooo!

[kafkaesk]

[...There are abnormal snowballs? College-boy furrows his brow at that. Last he checked, Jack Frost was a singular creature.]

Okay... [He can't exactly doubt this information in the middle of a snowball war... They could be benevolent but. Hmmm...] H-How do we fight against them?

[babel_hacker]

Since it's just a snowball fight, I guess we could win if we defeat them in this battle.

[There's always letting loose the fire type moves! But that's a last resort.]

And honestly, using fire attacks against them would be a last resort.
