Oh the weather outside is frightful...

☀THE WARM AND TOASTY MEME☀
The situation: It is dreadfully cold. Think 'ice cave where all those slash fics are set'.
The goal: Keep each other warm tonight!

☀ STEP ONE: Comment with your characters. One comment for each character.
☀ STEP TWO: Other people reply to your characters.
☀ STEP THREE: Both participants are aware that they should/must keep nice and warm. To do that, you need to bundle up nice and closely, however grudgingly. No, killing your threadmate and cuddling the body doesn't count.
☀ STEP FOUR: Keep 'em warm! Hot cocoa, hot coffee, hot tea, hot mustard, or other suitably warming beverages will be provided if you cooperate.
☀ STEP FIVE: Lulz ensue!

((Basically just a winter-themed cuddle meme, with evil ideas from Shae and Col. Add some cuddle urges in the air if your characters won't otherwise cooperate but you want them to.))

[Shakily nods]

I have flown in thin atmospheres. It is...unpleasant, but survivable.

[bluebrassmonkey.livejournal.com]

Eee. Rrrr-enne did once...But it noh be in Orrrrigin. It be wahrrrm therrre. Was...

::"The Origin", his word for his native land. "Warm" however, might be the understatement of the eon for any Human::

[morphitudinous]

[From what he knew of Renne's people...]

You're used to warmth that I would consider unbearably hot, right?

[bluebrassmonkey.livejournal.com]

Eey-ess. It be hurrrt to Hew-mahns, it be.

::That's why he has such strict control over his core body temperature, heat recirculation and anytime he simulates his native lands. He really wouldn't want to turn anyone into a pile of ash.::

[morphitudinous]

[Nods and curls his furs closer]

And you survived the cold with cover like this?

[bluebrassmonkey.livejournal.com]

It noh nehverrr get cohld. Th-is be...be prrres-ent frrrom in Rrrrih-Din.

::Chirp. Burrow. These are indeed from his years in Rhy'Din, when he'd gone far up to the north::

[morphitudinous]

I'm thankful you were given the gift.

[With the tea and everything, this isn't so bad.]

[bluebrassmonkey.livejournal.com]

Eee. Do Bee hunt in cohld? Fohrrr to eat?

::He too is getting warmer and this is indeed, not so bad. It could be a whole lot worse::

[morphitudinous]

I suppose I could if I needed to, since I've learned some of the skills here, but on my world most people don't hunt. There are people who hunt en masse, then sell their food to others.

[bluebrassmonkey.livejournal.com]

Oooh. Do Bee eat frrrom hunt?

::Chirp. He's about half through his coffee by now. Usually he downs the stuff in one go but he's enjoying it this time::

[morphitudinous]

Only once...remember when we ate that snake?

[He hadn't liked it too much, but it had been a learning experience]

[bluebrassmonkey.livejournal.com]

Eee, eey-ess. Bee did goo-d.

::Chirp. He's polishing off the coffee now and calling up a steaming mug of cocoa. That's an offer for you, Billy.::

[morphitudinous]

Not that well. I still have a lot to learn.

[Smiles slightly and nods] Cocoa?

[bluebrassmonkey.livejournal.com]

Bee, yeu is...Ahrrre. Too harrd on yeu.

::Chirp, nuzzle:: Eey-ess. Fohrrr Bee.

[morphitudinous]

I know, I'm trying to change that. You're helping.

[Smiles and snakes a hand out for the mug.]

[bluebrassmonkey.livejournal.com]

Bee is good. Rrrenne say wha-t Rrrrenne know.

::He's not far behind you Billy, with a refill on his Sumatra::

"Well you know where I'm from," she said, carefully putting away all of the clothing and making sure that Billy was ok. She grabbed him several pillows, and while he was talking, she was already starting up on the hot chocolate, glad that she's already gotten the hang of using these modern heating devices.

"What's it like, in California?" She asked, starting to put in those strange, mushy white candy things she liked.

[morphitudinous]

Billy stripped to his dry layers and sat, still rubbing for warmth under the blanket. He covered his head with the blanket and settled, only his eyes peeking out at her.

"It's very warm. We wear thin clothing for most of the year, and there are always green plants. It's all covered in concrete in the large cities, but we lived in a less densely populated area outside. To our west was the ocean, where we'd often spend a day at the beach. To the east was a desert where the Command Center was hidden. I grew up in a colder inland city, so it was a welcome change."

Was he really out in the cold that long? Hopefully the warming would get easier as he remained in the cocoon.

[kaya-waterwave.livejournal.com]

Without even thinking about it any longer, she threw a long, fluffy blanket over Starfire. "You're shaking! Here, come along, you'll get warmer, ok?"

She brought her toward shelter and was already starting on getting more blankets.

[starbolts]

[Wraps herself up and floats behind, like a floating burrito in the sky. Mmm, delicious.]

Thank you. How do you know this area so well?

[voiceofserenity.livejournal.com]

[ And this would be Kaylee shivering away next to him. ]

...oh gorrammit.

[ She sighs and scoots up against him. Stop being cold, Kang ;_; ]

[kaya-waterwave.livejournal.com]

She smiled. "Sounds pretty nice, for a lot of the people who live there. This kind of weather suits me just like being home again! I pretty much had to adjust to the weather that you're talking about. This is pretty fine for me!"

It sounded pretty though. She always appreciated others kinds of climates too.

"Here," she said, and crawled next to him under the blankets. "It'll be a lot easier for you to warm up this way."

[voiceofserenity.livejournal.com]

[ Kaylee's trying not to make it too obvious that she's shrinking further and further into her coveralls while trying to rig something that might warm the place up. Bit hard to do with frozen fingers, though... ]

[morphitudinous]

"I'm glad you're comfortable, at least," Billy murmured, smiling up at her. He would catch up, eventually...with her help, he realized, as she slipped in beside him.

He would be shifting closer now, feeling the chill start to fade. "I hope this isn't too uncomfortable."

[governorkang]

...Kaylee. There's nothing for a fire.

[He can't help leaning into her, drawn by the warmth she emits.]
