[Sneeze and you break it filter to CR at around 4 am this morning.]

I'm back. I'm fine. I hope everyone's okay. Good night.

[So then Katara wakes up much, much later and will be just puttering around the house for a while for those who are inclined to catch her in serious conversation. She sends notes to Trafalgar and to Gelda to let them know that although she's back she feels like she needs to take a few days off... she's still very tired, and as of yet not feeling like being around people.

All that changes, however, on Wednesday. She needs to get out of the house, she needs to do something life-affirming and fun... and isn't it fortunate that she's been working on building several insane monstrous intense snow tracks for people to go sledding on? She decides to go check on them and to bring her journal with them.

Finding that their structural integrity hasn't been too damaged without constant maintenance and that the cold weather still holds... she decides that today is the day to show them off.]

Hey, everyone - I've been working on something the past few weeks and if you like sledding then... [She trails off and flips the journal over so that the journal feed will reveal three sledding tracks. She's made good use of all the snow in the past month or so, the clearing is very nearly bare of it - instead, there is the very large one, made completely of tunnels and requiring snow-cut stairs to ascend and once dared will necessitate a few on-the-walls themselves turns, there is the slightly less large one that seems to be composed mostly of sheer drops, and there is the normal-sized one that is essentially one long spiral down to ground level.] then grab your sleds. Don't worry, I've had a few people test them and they've held up just fine! It's south of the barracks, by the river.

[OOC: If anyone wants to come sledding, please do! Threadjacks of all sorts are welcome!

Also, if I could get those who attend the school, work in the clinics, or attend combat medicine lessons to give this a quick glance and offer input, that would be awesome! \o/!]

Tell me about it. I have to go shopping for new clothes every single day. I'm hoping I'll stop before I die of old age, you know?

[Her words are light and teasing.]

[markofthebrave]

[She laughs a little.]

You probably don't have to worry about that here.

[...she hopes.]

[mikanthief]

I hope not! I'd miss out on all the best years of my life! It'd be so depressing.

Anyway. Are we friends?

[markofthebrave]

[Heh.]

Yeah. We are. I'm Katara.

[mikanthief]

Well, you already know who I am. Nice to meet you. Uh, again.

Sledding, huh?

[markofthebrave]

Yeah. [Grin.] Want to come check it out?

[Like... you hadn't before, but. Whatever.]

[mikanthief]

Sure! I've never been sledding before, though. You'll have to teach me.

[She'll pick it up ultra fast 8|]

[markofthebrave]

[Heh.]

Come on down. I've got a feeling you'll be a natural.

[mikanthief]

South of the barracks, you say? [She's standing up.] I'll be there in a few minutes.

[markofthebrave]

Great! [Weird. But great.] I'll see you then.

[mikanthief]

[And Nami will indeed front up at the tunnels, looking a lot shorter and a lot...flatter. >> Eyeing these tunnels with a measuring glance and a faint smile, because she's never sledded in the snow or anything in her life. This represents a challenge.

Where you at, Katara?]

[markofthebrave]

[Basically? Katara is at Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

Coming off the big slide.]

[mikanthief]

[...yeah okay, that looks like fun. *_* Finding her way up top now.]
