[Today there is a girl dragging a sled full of presents through the snow. She probably has one for you!]

((OOC: For all of your gift exchanging needs! My schedule is kind of wonky the days leading up to and after Christmas, but feel free to tag in and I will get to you! Let's have holiday fun ♥!))

[sits just outside the inn, watching a slowpoke play around in the snow curiously.]

[00_07]

Jesse! What is that?

[boldstarring]

- Vanya, hey.

[looks up and over, then nods back at the slowpoke, who is experimentally flipping some of the snow up in the air with her tail.]

This is Snow - she's a Slowpoke.

[watches her]

She's cute.

[boldstarring]

Isn't she? We kept her indoors for the last few days when the snow was really falling heavily, so she was starting to go a little stir-crazy.

[00_07]

She really seems to like it, though. Is that why you named her Snow?

[boldstarring]

No, uh, that was all Finn. He named her before she even hatched from that egg, because ... I don't even want to get into his thought process, it's borderline ridiculous at times.

[00_07]

It's a good name for her.

[reaches out a hand toward Snow]

... um, can I pet her?

[boldstarring]

Yeah, sure. She's pretty friendly. - hey, Snow.

[boldstarring]

[stops flipping snow in the air with her tail and turns, cocking her head to the side.]

[00_07]

[crouches down next to her and holds out a hand]

Hi Snow. I'm Vanya. I'm glad Jesse has a pet like you.

[sniffs at it for a moment before butting at it lightly, playfully with her head.]

[boldstarring]

I wouldn't really call her a "pet," exactly ...

[00_07]

[petting Snow now!]

She's more like a friend?

[boldstarring]

I suppose. I'm not really one for labels.

[00_07]

Because they're not important? Or they can be different? My friends here told me I could define family any way I wanted...
