Who: The whole town. Yes, you too.
What: The Great Snowball War of 2k19
Where: The whole town
When: December 1

She had heard a great deal about this snow ball game that was going to be played and Nebula was ready for it, had been since it had first been explained to her by Sirius. But apparently they had needed to wait until there was enough snow for such a thing? Though how much snow was enough was not something she had understood, what made for enough? These were all questions she still had.

But the town had been covered in a blanket of snow over the last several weeks, with large piles of it build up along the edges of town as well as butted up against their houses where the snow had been blown during the days where it had been windier than others. And it seemed that they had finally reached that point of enough, though she saw no particular difference in the amount compared to some other days. This would be her first time though so she supposed that she could allow the others to decide when it was ready for their game.

And so there they were ready for the snowball game, teams dividing up, some playing individually, and others pairing up, as she and Remus planned to do - it was time for a great battle.

Harry Osborn | Peter B Parker

Peter felt his heart ache while Harry told him how it had felt from his side of things, when he didn't know - when it just looked like his friend was abandoning him for something that he'd never quite been able to tell him about. And he wished he'd been smarter, braver, less focused on his own perspective at the very least and seen what it was doing to his friend. "It was hard in the beginning." He admitted after a moment, "Trying to figure out how to balance everything and feeling like I had to do it all on my own." Because after Ben? Well Peter knew he couldn't take the risk that anyone else that he cared about might get caught up in all of this.

"I don't know how much of our lives the other Peter and I share, but for me -" Peter began, feeling a little bit like he could explain in the way he never got the chance to explain to his Harry, "My uncle Ben was killed, and it was my fault." He told him, "I could have stopped the guy who did it before he ever got near Ben, but I was too stupid and too prideful and I didn't think about how anyone could get hurt by what I was doing and then Ben was just there - the wrong place at the wrong time and everything changed." Even now all these years later it still ached, he hadn't been surprised that the wound was still raw for the younger Peter when he'd mentioned Ben to him too. "I couldn't risk that happening to anyone else I cared about, so not telling you, not telling him - it was always just to keep him safe. I never thought about what he must have thought about it all." Not at the time, he was still young then, still trying to figure it all out, though that feeling never had quite managed to go away.

He winced a little when Harry told him how things had gone when Peter had finally owned up to it, nodding, well it wasn't as bad for him as it had been for himself, so that was something. "Sounds like there are a couple differences there. But I'm glad to hear you two worked it out." Harry had always been one of his very best friends, it was good to hear that one of the Peters managed to keep him. "That sounds about right, you always were an amazing friend, not at all what I expected you to be in the beginning." He grinned, pleased for both Harry and Peter hearing that they'd managed to inspire one another like that.

"I'll come by soon then, I want to see it." He promised Harry, who was obviously pretty pleased with himself and his work, and eager to show off. How could Peter turn that down? Even if he worried about what that might become, for now Harry was just Harry and away from the influence of his father, things could be different here.
