Rancis had already pregamed before coming to the festival, so he was already having a good time. It was a different scene than his usual down at the tracks, so he couldn’t complain, especially with the spiked festival drink in his hand to keep his spirits up. “Yo, the drinks here actually aren’t shit like I thought.”

Unlocking the front door, Anna held it open wide for Hans to enter first, mostly thinking about how they needed to get that baby girl out of the cold before anything else. The lights were still on and heat was flowing through the ducts despite the fact that nearly every other home and business around them seemed to be out of power. “We have backup generators,” she explained as she followed behind him and slid around to start heading out of the foyer and into one of the living rooms, waving for him to follow along. “You two can stay here as long as you need. Until the snow stops or slows down and it’s safe enough to go back out.” Up until this moment Anna hadn’t thought too hard on the sudden blizzard or where it could have come from, but once she stopped at the entrance of the living room to see Elsa pacing across the room, realization dawned on her. Her magic! Elsa could stop this! “Elsa!” she calls out excitedly, rushing forward to her sister. “Why haven’t you stopped the storm yet?” It’s a question said without any thought, though luckily vague enough that it doesn’t give too much away - for it was as soon as the words were out of her mouth that Anna remembered the other person standing in the room with them. “Oh… uhh…” she starts, coming up with some excuse off the top of her head as she looks over at Hans then back at her sister. “Because you know - you know so much about weather patterns….. I didn’t mean why haven’t you stopped it, that’s wrong wording. I meant why didn’t you warn me? Or uhh… yeah.” @hansoftheisles​ / @elsarendelle​

as she slowly began to re-enter consciousness, the first thing poppy realized was she wasn’t alone in bed. which was a bit concerning until she cracked open her eyes and saw angelo laying beside her, their legs still entangled together. it should still be concerning, honestly. but in her still groggy state of mind she’d yet to remember the fact that they hadn’t been together for well over a year and this shouldn’t feel as natural and normal as it does. her eyes close once more for a brief second before fluttering back open, this time paired with her arms reaching upward in a stretch. she’s careful not to move too much though, afraid of waking angelo, before she looks over at him and realizes he too is already awake. “morning,” she says in an almost whisper, offering him a still sleepy smile. the realization that this isn’t normal for them anymore has yet to dawn on her, though the fact that something might not be right is starting to sink in as she takes in the look on angelo’s face. “you okay?” @angelosanger​

Slipping away from Sebastian hadn’t been hard, but as Ariel roamed around the festival in search of a friend or any type of familiar face they were starting to realize maybe it would just been better to stay with him. Getting in line to enter the Ice Palace, they grin at a girl who looked to be maybe around their age. “Hey! Do you think they’re going to do any shows here later? Or is it just open for everyone to skate on their own all night?” Either way Ariel was down, but they’d always wanted to see a performance at the rink and doing it at the winter festival seemed like the perfect chance. “Are you in line? Do you want to skate together?” @wcndybird​

With an arm wrapped tightly around Tyler, the blonde floated a few inches off the ground as they made their way to the festival grounds. While technically impossible, Tink was still determined to keep an eye on all of her boys for the entirety of this event - especially Tyler. No repeat of the incident from the fall fest was going to happen on her watch. Not that she’d likely stick around for long, chances high that she’d get distracted by something or someone else soon enough - but for now she wasn’t going to leave his side. “So, Toots - what are we doing first?” @tylertootlesanderson​

With Helen off doing the wine and design with her friends and Lucius nowhere to be found, Bob was relaxing on the sideline of the festival with no plans to move until someone came and found him. He couldn’t go home, not with Jack-Jack still running around here somewhere, but there wasn’t really much at the event that really caught his attention. Or at least there wasn’t until he spotted his other son darting by, running a bit faster than he should be in such a crowded place. With a sigh, he almost just let it go but he could already hear his wife scolding him for just the thought of not addressing this issue. “Dash,” he called out, a bit harsh and loud enough that he knew the boy would hear as he stood from the bench he’d been sitting at. @dashiel-dash-parr​

staring at the menu above one of the booth stalls, fred couldn’t help but make a face. “this all sounds so fancy,” he complained as he continued to look over all of the options. nothing was appealing to him - everything had cranberries and that just seemed wrong. cranberries should only be in desserts as far as fred was concerned. “we should just bring burrito bros over here. do you think they’d let us do that?” @imgoingghcst​

Wandering the festival grounds as she killed time until she was going to meet up with Joey later in the night, Kanga stopped in her tracks when she noticed a familiar woman up ahead. Seeing Cass outside of the cafe was a first, but not something that she was going to be upset about. Her own circle of friends fairly small that seeing anyone she felt familiar with was always a welcome surprise. “So you do exist outside of the Lucky Cat,” she teases as she approaches the other woman with a smile. “I was starting to think maybe you were actually just one of Hiro’s more well built robots.” @hamadaunt​

With two smores hot chocolates in hand, Mason made his way over to the spot he knew Genevieve would be waiting at, holding their spot in line for the sleigh ride. It should probably mean something to him, the fact that he was looking forward to sharing this moment with her more than he had been for coming to the festival with Flora, but it’s not a thought he lets linger. This was their tradition, like with most events the island hosted, so of course he was going to be excited to continue it in any way he could with Gen. That was normal, right? “I taste tested mine before bringing them over. So I promise it’s good,” he reassures as he offers over the drink. “Not as marshmallowy sweet as you’d expect a smores hot chocolate to be.” @quccnofhcxrts​

“Ay, beautiful,” Rancis smirked as he approached Vidia from behind, recognizing even the back of her head from far away. His hand brushed against her shoulder casually, as if it weren’t obvious that he missed her touch. He was glowing from the buzz that he had going. “... You didn’t come here alone, did you?” @10kvidia​

When Mavis originally signed up for the gingerbread house decorating contest, she hadn’t realized it was a pairs event. Which led to both excitement and disappointed when she realized she was going to be paired with someone else to create her little cookie house. The majority of her was thrilled that she’d get to meet someone new and work on a fun activity with them, but she couldn’t help but be a bit sad that it likely meant she wouldn’t get to build a miniature version of her father’s hotel for her entry. Though perhaps her partner would be okay with that! Maybe the thought of a monster hotel would intrigue them. Or at least, she hoped it might. And when she saw someone approaching the table she was already sitting at, waiting for her partner to arrive, she jumped up to her feet (a little too fast but she hoped he wouldn’t notice) and offered a small wave. “Hi! I’m Mavis. And you’re Stitch... right?” @stitch-pelekai​

Biting their lip, Riley stared at all of the cookies in front of them, trying to decide which direction they should go in. Stopping at the cookie decorating booths seemed like a good idea when they suggested it to Joy - a warm-up for the gingerbread house contest they were both entered in later during the festival. But now actually faced with the task of decorating it was as if there were no ideas in their head at all. “Should we make ours match? Are we going for any type of theme here?” @jcytothewcrld​

Rushing up to the booth she knew Tiana was working at, the blonde bounced on her feet a bit as she looked over the menu. It took a moment before her lips twisted into a small frown, though it doesn’t last long because she spots one of her favorite coworkers coming out around the counter. “Hey! You guys don’t have hot chocolate here?” she asks, unable to hide the disappointment in her voice. She’d been looking forward to that s’mores hot chocolate she’d heard about and had honestly... just assumed she could find it anywhere and had really wanted to buy it at Flo’s specifically so she could give Tiana the business and tip. @tiasbeignets​

With Lily Rose spending some time with Hans, Poppy was free to spend a bit of time at the festival to herself. Which meant, of course, she had signed up for the gingerbread house making contest as soon as she heard about it. She’d never met the girl she’d been paired with, but that didn’t bother her. In fact, she was excited that she got to work with someone new - it meant an opportunity for a new friend. Getting to their station early, she beamed as a young college student approached the table. “Are you Lil?” she asked, wanting to make sure this was actually her partner before she got too excited. @devillelil​

The moment they’d made it into her apartment building, Tink had all but ran up the stairs and towards her apartment, assuming Peter was following behind her. “It’s fucking cold,” she complained again, for what must have been at least the hundredth time. As she opened the apartment door, she wasn’t even surprised to find Peri wasn’t home - her sister loved the snow and probably had no issues being outside in this oncoming blizzard. What was a shock, though, was the way the lights didn’t turn on as she flicked the switch by the door. “Fuck.” The power must be out, which meant the heat wouldn’t be working either. With a heavy sigh she continued into the main room and just stood there for a second thinking before she turned back around to face Peter. “Alright. I guess we need to grab some candles and blankets.” @picdpipcrpcn​

Location: Winter village - Arandelle

Walking among a crowd of people who were too noisy and without any respect for keeping a distance to avoid being hit was not Pascal's favorite activity, who looked like a kind of a green plump penguin because of all the layers of clothing he wore to protect himself from the cold, even if it was an exaggeration why it wasn't so cold to justify so much protection. The only bright side of all this was that the pockets were large to store anything bought for Christmas, including a plush toy of some kind of dangerous-looking bear with the phrase 'small but fierce' written on the chest. Just like Lil. And speaking of the queen of Rome, Pascal smiled with a certain mischief as he grabbed a bundle of snow to build a perfect ball. It was a more difficult task considering that movement was limited but perseverance helped keep the pace. Now he just needed to make the perfect pitch. "Hey Lil! Catch it!" As soon as he finished the sentence, the projectile was launched to hit the woman's shoulder from behind but bad luck meant that she turned around at that moment, causing the ball to hit the central area of ​​the coat. "Oh no." Seeing her gaze, one that promised trouble as soon as her hands reached him, Pascal tried to make the only action withmost sense at the moment. Running away even if he wouldn't get very far. @devillelil​
