Who: Sidney Prescott, John Crichton, Illyana Rasputin and Toph Bei Fong (posting order set as people answer)
What: "Forced Fun" in Sidney's Words
When: Day 25
Where: Alpine Slide
Rating: PG-13 for possible language
Status: Complete

Sidney was not a happy camper as she walked towards the alpine slide, finding the note on her door about "forced fun" was not her idea of a good time after how rough the last few days had been on her mind and soul. The Weasley twins had gotten her to lighten up a notch and that helped but she was still having the worst time with being social and being around other people. So there the pale brunette sat, wrapped up in a simple trench coat she had located before braving the trip outside. "Wonder if anyone else is not so happy about this either" she mused to herself while watching things along the hillside. But anyone could see how rotten Sidney was still feeling in the emotional and mental sense of the word.

Illyana made her way toward the Alpine Slide in a relatively good mood. Fortunately, the little note she'd found on her door came with directions on the back. She'd been mildly annoyed at finding she was part of some sort of group activity, since she hadn't signed up for it, but the weather was still delightfully cold, and she could still see some of her snowman army from her window, which did much to brighten her spirits. Perhaps others she knew would be going to this Alpine Slide as well, and the thought of seeing one of the few familiar faces on the Planet also served to lift her spirits. And really, the more people she met, the more likely it was that she'd find someone whose power or ideas could boost her own, and they could figure out how to get home.

So, Illyana had dressed quickly and gone out to play in the snow for a while by herself before it was time to meet up with the mystery residents for their activity. She added another to the army of snowmen, and began building a fort for them just inside the woods. It was silly, but it reminded Illyana of home, of Piotr and her parents and Kitty, and of her fellow New Mutants, who would no doubt have pegged her with a dozen snowballs by now. She brought a little packed lunch with her to the edge of the woods, so she ate outdoors, perched on her wall of snow.

"Time already?" she asked as she saw one of the stone golems approach her. It nodded and beckoned her forward. She scowled at it. Being told what to do by a stone was worse than being ordered around by the Professor or Magneto. "I'm coming, don't worry," she told it. She tossed it her paper lunch bag. "If you can dispose of this for me, I'll get going much faster," she said. She pulled out the little note and read over the directions. Then, she slipped it back in her pocket and headed out, not bothering to see what the golem did with her lunch bag. In all likelihood it had already disappeared, as things on this Planet that weren't needed tended to do.

What was an Alpine Slide anyway? Illyana had never heard of one before, nor had she seen one. She figured it was something fun, since it had the word "slide" in the title. As long as it wasn't one of Arcade's slides, that was. Those were never fun. She trudged up the hill, cheeks pink from being out in the cold all morning, and smiled as she noticed a young woman sitting alone. Perhaps this was one of the other "guests." She raised a hand in greeting. "Good afternoon!" she called. "Are you here for the sliding as well?"

As she drew nearer to the woman, Illyana could see that her fellow participant wasn't exactly thrilled to be out in the cold. Perhaps she was used to warmer climates. "It's a lovely day to be outside," she continued, stopping just in front of the woman. She held out her hand in greeting. "Illyana Rasputin. And you are?"
