[OPEN EVENT] Weekend Winter Wonderland
Characters: All?
Date: March 8th-11th
Location: All of Keeliai
Situation: It's been a stressful month thus far for a lot of people, but Jack is determined to Make All The Happy and decides he needs to get back to his wintery roots by giving the city a proper snowing.
Warnings/Rating: People high on snow glitter?
NOTES: Actionspam OR prose, whatever is preferred! (Settings were just easier to prose.) Make your own thread headers if none of these suit! ♥
Jack had spent the last three hours balanced motionlessly on the top of a flagpole, head tilted back as he listened to the wind and the sound of the city below. Where is Winter? it asked. I'm here! the spirit replied, but he knew it didn't mean his physical presence. He'd had too much on his mind and too much in his heart and in that sense he had indeed been absent these last few weeks.
Eyes closed and thoughtlessly trusting, he tipped forward into open air, letting the wind catch him and hurl him upward into the misty cloud cover that scudded across the stars tonight. At his touch they thickened, fat and pale grey against the indigo backdrop and Jack swirled them up, the motions so ingrained in him they felt just like breathing. In the small hours of the morning snowflakes began to fall on the sleeping city, specks at first but then quickly becoming heavier.
Now with a fresh canvas to work with, Jack was really in his element. He could never have done something like this back home, not anywhere in his world. It would have been too strange, too inexplicable, drawn too much attention. But here on the turtle, things were different. There wasn't really a semblance of normal and Jack poured his imagination and heart into the things he wanted most to share, and from the snow rose gleaming swirls of snow and blue light, forming things of exceptional detail and delight.
By the time the sun rose, a solid three feet of the snow had blanketed the city, glistening and crisp and Jack went rocketing down the streets, rapping on doors and windows to leave spirals of frost on every surface.
"Whooohoo! Snow day! Get up sleepyheads, everyone come out and play!"

"Ah -- I see. On many planets I've visited the weather generally acted of its own accord." 'On its own'.
"Why can't I see you?"
no subject
That was something that had on his mind lately. But his attention was refocused when she asked why he wasn't visible to her and Jack thought, well, might as well tell her the truth.
"Because I'm a spirit and the way things work where I'm from, you can only see us if you believe in us."
no subject
"A spirit?" That has her interested, head tilted a little. "I've never encountered something like that before, here or at home. What is your name?"
no subject
"Jack Frost," he answered. "It's nice to meet you, ma'am."
no subject
"Inara Serra. It's a pleasure to meet you, Jack."
Pausing, Inara considers her next question before speaking.
"If one begins to believe, do you become visible?"
no subject
"That's the way that it worked at home, yeah. Here... things are a little different, but that's still the best rule of thumb I have to go by. So if 'Spirit of Winter' doesn't really ring true, it's probably gonna be voice-over only."
no subject
“I suppose that believing in something that is invisible yet directly speaking to me isn’t such a difficult concept.” She pulls in a breath and smiles, eyes briefly closing. “My beliefs aren’t limited to the tangible; it’s no leap to put my faith into you. If you say you exist, then you do.”
She opens her eyes and peeks – would he be visible now?

"Well wonder of wonders...isn't that something?"

"It's not so hard to believe in something like you these days, I don't think. Especially when you are in front of me and talking directly to me."
no subject
"Some people still manage," he said. "But that's all right, it can be a big thing especially for adults."
no subject
"I suppose you're right. But..." She hesitates and leans down to run her fingers through the white powder.
"I...rather like the idea of keeping an open mind. It makes a person more receptive to new experiences."
no subject
Jack smiles, matching her move to scoop up a handful of snow, molding it into a little figurine of a bird, which took off from his hand and swooped around Inara.
"... a little more special."
no subject
"It does. I admit I feel...refreshed, today. I don't know how else to explain it." She winks at him. "Maybe meeting new, special people has something to do with it."
no subject
no subject
"I will. Thank you, Jack."
