[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!"

You don't give yourself enough credit. I don't really have much of an eye for art, but I believe these are better than the statues around the city. [Might be slightly biased. He glances over at Kaldur after a moment.] If you'd like help with your training, you only have to ask. Mera knows more about your abilities than I would, but I'm sure she wouldn't object either.
no subject
[If he was to better my skills, then he should do it on his own terms rather than going back to expecting her to take on a pupil that chose another over her. It seems rather rude, having decided to leave twice.]
My skills are not nearly as up to par as others who studied sorcery would be. I can only advance so far, but it is not something that distresses. I made that decision.
no subject
You don't have to impose those limits on yourself. We should always strive to be the best we can.
no subject
You are right, but I still feel it is better to see how far I can progress on my own first. I apologize if that is an insult to either of you, it is not my intent.
no subject
I suppose I've been pushing, haven't I? I think I'm just used to Lorena constantly being on my fins. [He exhales, expression fairly relaxed despite everything.] I only want you to know that you can come to us, if you feel like you need to.
no subject
No, it is not that. Please do not blame yourself when I know that you are only trying to accept things as they have happened. It is my own hesitation causing this...discomfort. I...[This is a lot harder to admit that he thinks it should be, but he does not want to say anything that might come across the wrong way.]...It is only that I would like to settle you in my mind as an individual first, so that I am not making assumptions on you and what our...roles with each other should be.
no subject
He manages a small, slight smile, though it isn't tight, it's a natural expression for him. He hasn't smiled much since the Spectre's rampage on Atlantis.] Take all the time you need. I don't blame you, you probably know your world's version of me better than I knew my world's version of you. Is there anything I could do that would make things easier?
