[After a certain incident resulted in Ion leaving House One for a week, it was finally fime for him to make his way back home. He'd spent more than enough time feeling guilty about what had happened, and for leaving in the first place. He couldn't just keep avoiding things forever, could he?]

[Of course, it'll take him a little while to actually get

[While Ion is on his journey to the plaza, he may notice Yui along the way, playing in the snow. There was a mid-size snowman near her, but it was missing a head. She was busy rolling that head right now, humming to herself.]

[Action] 1/2

[soreplaceable]

[Actually, he notices the snowman first, staring at it with a look of wonder... wh-where was it's head!?]

[Action]

[soreplaceable]

[Oh. Then he sees Yui rolling up another ball of snow. That's good; the last thing Luceti needs is a bunch of decapitated snowmen. Seems kind of morbid...]

[But that was enough of a distraction to pull him out of his thoughts for the moment. He waves as he calls out to her.]

Hello, Yui.

[Action]

[thederpyhalf]

[The snowman just decided to celebrate Halloween too. Yui looks up and then waves back at Ion.]

Good afternoon, Ion! How are you doing today?

[Action]

[soreplaceable]

I'm all right. I was just taking a short walk around the village... [He looks back at the snowman.] Did you make this yourself?

[Action]

[thederpyhalf]

Mhm. I haven't thought of a name for him yet though. Maybe you could give him one.

[Action]

[soreplaceable]

A name? [Looking back at the snowman... hmmm...] I think perhaps he needs a head more than he name first.

[Action]

[thederpyhalf]

That too! Just a moment. [She has to be really careful this head won't break on her. At least it's not as heavy as the body was. So once she has it positioned properly on top, she takes a step back to admire her work.]

We need to dress him up now, want to help?

[Action]

[soreplaceable]

[His smile brightens a bit.] I'd love to.

[Taking a step towards the snowman, he moves his hand to his chin in thought for a moment before he unties one of his scarves (yes, he is wearing two, he is a cold bby) and wraps it carefully around the snowman, so as not to knock off the head. Then, he folds his arms over his chest as he takes a step back.]

Ah, I think perhaps a hat would be appropriate as well.

[Action]

[thederpyhalf]

Oh, I have one! [And she pulls out a blue hat from her bag and carefully reaches up to plop it on his head. There, all ready for the winter!]

Hehe, he needs a face now too. [And she already came prepared for that as she pulled out a bag with some pebbles, a carrot and buttons inside.]

Let's decorate his face together.

[Action]

[soreplaceable]

[Okay, the pebbles and the buttons he gets, but why the vegetable?] All right. But if I may ask... why did you bring a carrot?

[That actually gets a chuckle out of him. He hasn't seen too many snowman in his life and the idea of a carrot nose just isn't the sort of thing he'd assume right off the bat.]

[Action]

[thederpyhalf]

[Well let big sis, Yui explain it to ya, Ion]

It's for his nose! The snowman needs to have a nose so he can breath, right?

[Action]

[soreplaceable]

[Another laugh. This is just so silly to him... but that just makes it better!]

I see! And a carrot would be a much better choice than just another rock, right?

[Action]

[thederpyhalf]

[But that's how it works Ion 8(. You want the snowman to suffocate?]

Well you could give him a rock for a nose, but I think he'd breath easier with a carrot.

[She offers the carrot to Ion.] Here, you can do it.

[Action]

[soreplaceable]

[...b-breathe easier, huh...]

Ah, all right. [He takes the "nose" from Yui and turns to the snowman, carefully putting it on so as not to accidentally knock the head off... and yes, he puts it on right.]

Like this?

[Action]

[thederpyhalf]

Perfect! [Yay! The snowman won't suffocate now!]

Here, we should give him a mouth and eyes too. [She offers Ion a few pebbles]
