WHO: Tonks and Illyana, Marcus, Astor, Faith, Mercy, Violet, Snape, Sam, Andy (posting order)
WHAT: Snowball fight!
WHEN: Day 29, afternoon
WHERE: The snow forts
RATING: PG at most, I should think
STATUS: Complete

After showing Mercy around, she'd had a little bit of a run in with someone over the journals. But Tonks was nothing if not resilent, and she didn't let him hurt her feelings for long. Instead, she decided that exactly what she needed was some physical exercise. So she changed into some warmer clothing, swapping her normal t-shirt for a thick sweater, and then, she was off.

There were people there already, so Tonks picked a fort nearly at random and crouched behind it. The witch then spent quite a few moments simply packing snow into snowballs, but now she was ready. She had quite a pile to work with. Showing that she wasn't always clumsy, she clambered to the top of her chosen fort and cupped her hands around her mouth so her voice would project further. Of course, she could use magic, but that seemed like cheating somehow.

"Hey, guys! Let's get this going on!" As usual, her voice was full of good cheer and high spirits. And she immediately had to duck down as people from both sides flung snowballs at her. She had been a bit of an idiot, making herself such an easy target and then taunting everyone. Her uncharacteristic nimbleness went away very quickly under the rain of snowballs, and she half-fell half-slid back to her pile of snowballs. It was turning into a pretty fun fight, she thought. She was having a good time.

Sam had agreed to meet Andy for the snowball fight. Gray was safe with Jack and Ianto was off his back for the time being. He'd eaten breakfast, had coffee...yeah all there was left in his not-quite-routine was to bundle up and head out. So that was exactly what he did.

Trudging out into the snow, as Andy approached, he could see that there were plenty of people already out there and he paused only momentarily when he noticed Snape amongst the bunch. Hopefully, they could avoid a live and in-person confrontation. Or, if not, Sam was huge and Andy didn't mind being called a coward if the situation called for it. In any case, he hadn't let his disagreement with Tonks stop him - even if the two of them had fixed it before he'd left with Gray - so why should he let the same thing with Snape stop him? He shouldn't, he decided. They were both adults and they could handle being in the same place at the same time, he figured.

Speaking of Sam, he noticed the other man standing off to the side a little and grinned. He leaned down and scooped up some snow, making a large, bulky, and pretty badly misshapen snowball which he lobbed forcefully at the back of Sam's head, laughing loudly. "You gonna play or just stand there, Sasquatch?" he teased.
