*Why isn't there any store that has hooded cloaks? The most he can find are short hooded coats of sorts, but those won't fit over his armor, and then there are these short shawls that are never deep enough to accommodate his neck guard.
Preoccupied with the above, he doesn't even notice the fort in progress until he spots Castle's movement. He stops and watches for a moment. He's so confused he has to speak up.*
[The fact that it's snowing doesn't seem to be enough of a deterrent in keeping B from wandering out of doors ... near the bridges where he used to see a wall ... without a coat. 8| And when he spots Castle, he casually wanders over to silently inspect the other man's handiwork, lightly nibbling at his thumbnail while he watches.]
[By this time, Castle had finished his fort- though it looked apt to fall apart at any second- and was now shaping snowballs. He acknowledged Ryuzaki with a nod, reaching up to brush snow out of his own hair and shoulders.]
Ahhh, good point. No good having a snow fort if it's going to crumble!
[Castle picks up a few branches and bits of brick to shore up his crude construction. He knows the subject of the murder is likely to come up, and half wants to let Ryuzaki bring it up himself, but decides there's no point in stalling.]
... So. About that murder you discussed. Who was murdered, and why didn't the rest of us hear anything about it?
[While he's making that obligatory pile, a snowball will come sailing through the air and peg him on the shoulder, hurtled by a chortling troll who's only concession to the weather is a huge purple and red striped scarf he's looped around his neck, the ends trailing nearly all the way to the ground, despite his height.]
Huh? Why would a motherfucker be all up in getting his cold on? [Gamzee blinks as the snowball gets him right on the chest, then he grins and leans over to scoop up more snow. It's probably interesting to note that where the snow hits him, or touches his skin, he gently steams a little.]

Preparing for the inevitable throwing of snowballs, of course.

*Enoch has seen snow from Heaven and there was some snow on the silver mountain between Heaven and Earth, but he's never seen people play in it.*

You'll want more reinforcements on that side, I think. [He points to one of the areas that looks most apt to crumble.]

[Castle quickly scoops up some snow and lobs one back at Gamzee, laughing.]
Hey, aren't you cold?
