A Visit from the Magical Snow Fairy

[whyarewehere]

This comm has been quiet for TOO LONG.

The ship is now full of snow. Seriously. It's in the hallways. It's in your bedroom. It's all over the mess hall, the sensoriums, and of course the city. How did it get here? WHO KNOWS! It's just everywhere snow should be and then a whole lot more.

NOW DEAL WITH IT!

(Meme is, as usual, open to literally anybody. Ever.)

"Okay, the name was bad enough," Grif said, "But goblins and hobgoblins? Really?"

He exhaled heavily, as if this were a grave and serious matter. "I'm sorry Kang, but I cannot take your bad guys seriously. They sound like they were off some saturday morning cartoon. I mean, no offense."

Kang laughed, and turned to give Grif a serious look, "I used to be one of those bad guys. Until the dragonarmies screwed us all over by treating us like shit, and we lost the war because of their incompetence and greed.

"I know it all sounds a lot like some silly fantasy novel from your world, but on mine, it's reality."

"Well, armies screwing people over is apparently universal then."

His voice rose a bit. He loved complaining about this nonsense.

"I got drafted into the Red Army because apparently they were one guy short. And they stationed me out in a box canyon in the middle of nowhere to fight a bunch of blue guys. No aliens, no glory, just a bunch of cockbites and a stupid flag we were supposed to steal from 'em."

[governorkang]

"...that was it? For a game of capture the flag? There has to be more to this."

"Yeah, I know right? Then there was the guy yelling about how Red and Blue are the same, but I honestly think he had sunstroke. That kind of happened a lot."

He scuffed at the snow by his chair with one boot. "I kind of gave up on Command making sense a long time ago. I was just gonna live through all that bullshit and go home. You know, ride it out."

"I don't know what the hell kind of bullshit that was, but whoever was in charge there should never be responsible for soldiers ever again," Kang's tail lashed once. "Real officers don't do that."
