[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!"

"I regret waiting so long to do this," he said softly, his smile receding slightly, though it remained no less heartfelt. "It'll be spring soon..."
no subject
The last one had been Rann, after the war, but even then he'd been kept busy with the terraforming efforts. Not enough to notice that he could measure his loneliness by the hours.
no subject
Jack's brain caught up with Kyle's words and he gaped at the Lantern. "Not like... a little one, right? A whole planet?"

He looked over at Kyle, his grin becoming fond. "I think I'm starting to understand why Zatanna said superheroes are good people," he said.

'Oh? Do tell.'
no subject
"We got talking about them and she said that they were some of the best people she had met in her world. She said that you could tell what kind of person someone was, even if they tried to hide some parts of themselves."
no subject
(When had he become this paranoid? he wondered. After Parallax?)
'You can, if you know how to look.' It's not full of his usual conviction as it would be. Lately he's found his own optimism faltering. 'She's used to being around them - us, but some of the best people I know don't wear capes at all. They don't have to.' And some of the people who did weren't exactly those you wanted to spend time around. He was reminded of how much simpler Zatanna's world was, compared to his own.

He knocked on the door and a moment later, a kedan woman answered it and her gaze took in Kyle and Jack before she gave them both a smile, addressing the winter spirit. "Wore her out, did you?"
"Yes ma'am," Jack replied cheerfully and transferred the sleeping child to her mother's arms. "Can she come and play tomorrow as well?"
The woman gave him a wry smile. "Oh you're a cheeky thing, aren't you? But I don't see why not."

He looks away, and up at the sky, waiting for Jack to rejoin him.

Then his expression slips a little bit, slinging his staff over his shoulder and setting an ambling gait back towards the center of the city. "But hey, I wanted to ask you something, if it's all right. And um, you can not answer if it's not right for me to bring up."

It made him think of what Connor had once told him, that they didn't get along because they were too alike, too obstinate.
'I'm still giving him space.'

His feet slow until he comes to a stop.
"... safe."

"That's something that we have in common," he replies. "Thank you, Kyle."
