[GP] SNOW DAY
Thor and Loki got an early start, because there was a lot to do. Almost two weeks to the day since their first small-but-successful experiment with snow, Loki was confident that he'd improved enough for a bigger experiment. Still snow, because Thor wanted it and it did seem like a decent way to try something big-ish without causing Loki unnecessary grief with the other residents. (It was an arrival day, so there would perhaps be some grief with any new arrivals, but that was entirely acceptable.)
It was before dawn when they went out into the grounds. Thor called up clouds and loaded them with water so they hung low and heavy, covering the sky so that the sun, when it rose, wouldn't ruin the event. Loki took his frost giant shape and staff (now very familiar to his hand) and concentrated on dropping the temperature. Just around the Inn and grounds, but that was enough to be serious effort.
When the snow first started, the flakes were big and wet, and melted as soon as they hit the ground, which was still on the warm side. As they melted, they cooled the ground. After an hour or so, the flakes were smaller and more powdery - real snow, not glorified slush - and they were starting to stick to the ground.
By mid-morning, the Inn and grounds were covered with a thick layer of snow, and it continued to fall.
***
Meanwhile, indoors and inspired by the snow, Hurley and Xavin decided to try and make cookies. Cooking together was fun, since neither of them exactly knew what they were doing apart from 'follow the recipe', but since the point was 'try to make cookies' they ended up with a lot of cookies. Sugar cookies, gingerbread, all kinds.
There was no way they'd be able to eat all of them.
Instead, they loaded them onto trays and hauled them to the cafe, then brought out various frostings and candies for decorating. This had been completely intentional. Completely.

Re: Bo & Dean
"I suck at basic kid art." She looked back at Dean, smiled a little, and then climbed to her feet. "I keep trying to think if I sucked as a kid, too, but I don't remember."

Re: Bo & Dean
"I see enough monsters usually, I'd like to just make one nice thing that isn't a total pinterest fail." Lauren would probably be fantastic at this.
Re: Bo & Dean
Re: Bo & Dean
"Sure." She smiled to him. "And if this one sucks, you can at least take have the blame. So it's a win-win situation." Plus, she enjoyed Dean's energy. it had some weird familiar vibes to it.
Re: Bo & Dean
Re: Bo & Dean
"Hey, it's my word against yours and I've got eyelashes to bat and lips to pout." She also began to build, but she sent him a playfully challenging look.
Re: Bo & Dean
Re: Bo & Dean
She laughed. "I don't think I've seen a guy pout and flex their muscles at the same time. Would you be using some sort of German accent too to round out the look?" Bo was picturing some buff male model.
Re: Bo & Dean
He gave her his best blue steel look and a German accent. "See what I mean?"
Re: Bo & Dean
She definitely had not seen Zoolander. When he demonstrated, she laughed. It was more adorable than anything else. Now she had to convince Alec to make the same face so she could compare notes.
"What's the girl version of blue steel?"
Re: Bo & Dean
Re: Bo & Dean
Bo sent him her best pout, but it probably wasn't a fair comparison as that sort of look came naturally with extra pheromones.
Re: Bo & Dean
Re: Bo & Dean
"Great. I'll add that to my list of skill sets now." She smiled to him. She enjoyed Sam's family a lot.
