[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!"

[The challenge has been accepted, perfect. Kon obviously has no worries about pelting a king with the snowballs either. As he's about to make another snowball he staggers back a foot or two as the snowball smacks his shoulder.

He could cheat, but where's the fun in that. He snorts and quickly makes one to throw back.

Who needs manners when you've got style like this?

[Former king, technically, not that it would even matter here anyway. A royal has no real power without the might of their kingdom behind them. Arthur finds it pretty amusing, though, that this one has an idea of who he is and doesn't seem to care. Garth was kind of the same way.]

Is that what you call a lack of common sense these days?

[Wel, former king makes it all the better. Well, if they were back home it would, or something like that.]

Lack of common sense? Ouch. Bring it old man.

[He ducks down to scoop up more snow.]

[Ah, youth. He's struck for just a moment how he'd probably be doing this same thing with Garth, but it's getting easier to push that away. He rolls another large snowball and approaches, tossing it up a couple times.] With age comes wisdom, junior. I promise not to tell Superman about this.

Tell him what? How you got your ass whooped by a kid?

[He grins and his cheeks are starting to hurt. He hadn't really had much opportunity to play with snow back home. For the majority of his life, he'd lived in Hawaii and even when visiting other places, he never really had the time to play like this. So this was something he was going to remember.

Kon packs up the snow and launches it as hard as he can towards Aquaman. Carefully watching the one he had.
