[ It's midway into dinner preparations when Alf opens the journal for some noise; it's shortly after when he decides to do small talk. ]

It snowed again, today. Maybe it's just me, but there's something about the blanket of white that calms the mind. Not to mention, you can do a lot with all that snow.

Is everyone enjoying the weather?

You know I'm not usually one for the snow, actually. Gives me a few bad memories- the stuff here isn't that bad though. [Though the way he says "bad memories" - it's clear he means something jovially bad, not honestly traumatic]

[hakoiri]

Is that so? That's quite a shame. But it's good to hear that it isn't so bad here. [ He'll humor the tone. He means what he says, though he's not taking it overly seriously. ]

Well, I confess it's a big help it's relatively warm here compared to the spot I got in mind.

[hakoiri]

Oh? It's true that it has yet to grow too cold, even from my perspective. With a blanket and hot drink, you'd be warm in minutes.

Right. Weather like this, makes me feel like I could run around in my skivvies and not get frostbite.

[hakoiri]

[ . . . oh, wow. ]

You really must have endured incredibly hard times to feel that way.

Well, I couldn't actually do it. But the in-laws place is cold enough to freeze your blood, so the comparison works wonders.
