Harry sat up so he could brush the remains of a snowball off his chest. "Quite a few of the twerps would probably try and eat the sodding snow," he pointed out. "Still fresher than the shite on the Isle." His fingers stilled against the material as he watched the magical tornado. The sight of magic still was a tad strange for him, but he had gotten over the whole minor feeling of panic. Well, for the most part. He still wasn't overly thrilled with the idea of consuming anything magic.
Sleeping spells were serious things.
To truly destroy your enemy, get them to trust you and then betray them when they least expect it...
A snort escaped him as he rolled his eyes. "Aye, water is her thing, but she tends ta like it a wee bit warmer. Less frozen." He reached out and clasped his hand around Mal's forearm so he could pull himself up. An exaggerated gasp escaped him at her words and he couldn't help leaning into her personal space. He grinned wickedly as he narrowed his eyes.
"Them fighting words, yer Majesty. Water is where I am most comfortable as well," he took a step back as he threw his arms wide as if motioning to the entire domain of snow. Sure, the tips of his ears were getting a bit cold, but that was hardly a reason to stop.
He flourished a hand through the air and held up a finger. "I'll give ye a head start this time," he teased. "Think ye can outrun me?" Running in the snow slowed anyone down and he knew they both would end up looking like failing penguins if they raced in the snow. "We run ta that wee snow...owl?" He cocked his head to the side and tried to figure out just what snow creature was in the distance. People had really seemed to embrace the whole winter thing judging from the various creations out in the white expanse.
"We can even make a wee wager, if ye like?" He grinned at her as if they had never been enemies. They had years of history, but being in this place meant they both had the freedom they had craved. Freedom to actually be happy.
