Who: Abra and Dan What: Reunion! Where: Park to begin When: Directly after this thread, 7th January
Dan made his way through the snowy park as quickly as he could, towards the blinding light that was his niece. He kept his sore arm tucked in close against his chest, swore out loud at the snow both times that he skidded, and somehow managed not to go on his ass either time - he did not want to break his other wrist, after all. And all the time, he kept in touch with Abra. He didn't actually swear while talking to her, but he figured she'd know about it anyway. She usually did.
(the snow isn't always here) he sent, once he'd righted himself after the second skid, (so it's not always this cold or annoying)
He got to where the path should have been, and sure enough, the snow wasn't nearly as deep. But the path meandered through the park, and Dan had been heading in a mostly-straight line, avoiding the worst of the snow as he went. His jeans were covered in snow up to his knees now, and it was starting to melt and get uncomfortable. Fuck, but he hated snow. At least Abra was closer now. The sooner they met, the sooner they could get back down to the warmth of the apartment and into dry clothes. And then he looked up and could actually see her!
(i see you over by those trees, honey) he sent, zip-zip, and trudged off the path towards her again, the fingers on his bad hand tucked into his armpit now to keep them warm.
