let it SNOW.

[So much for the necessities. So much for the orchard. So much for all the lovely places that have been created here--

--the only thing visible this morning is a thick coat of snow, white everywhere, broken up only by ominous shadows and lights.

Aren't you lucky to be inside? Inside a plain little stone house, with a sleeping bag and at least one other person. There's a bathroom, but it's not very good at giving you hot water. Everything's cold.

And outside, the wind howls...]

I understand the distinction... I'm just pointing out that you may be wrong.

[bishoujo-ga-yoi.livejournal.com]

I will not hole up, held like a bird in a cage.

Also, I'm hungry.

[isntthatsad.livejournal.com]

I-I am too but... well, we're not going to talk about that.

*Shifting about uncomfortably.*

As long as you understand the risks I will come with you.

[bishoujo-ga-yoi.livejournal.com]

you would hardly find me an convenient meal in any case.

[isntthatsad.livejournal.com]

I did notice something strange about you but I wasn't going to ask. As long as you aren't a member of the church I think we'll get along okay.

Oh, um, I'm Satsuki.

[Doesn't trust her enough yet to not use a pseudonym]

Saber.

[isntthatsad.livejournal.com]

Okay! Um, despite the circumstances I'm glad to have met you.

[bishoujo-ga-yoi.livejournal.com]

Well, I suppose that's only natural. [Ego much, Nero?]

*Sacchin just laughs it off. She's a good sport!*

We should investigate this shack the best to our abilities before heading out. We wouldn't want to miss out on any provisions that might have been left here.

[bishoujo-ga-yoi.livejournal.com]

[A brief search turns up nothing besides a bathroom and a sleeping bag.]

This place is so drab and empty...

[isntthatsad.livejournal.com]

I suppose we would have had to leave sooner or later to find food for you.

[bishoujo-ga-yoi.livejournal.com]

While the thought of it is dreadful, I could go without. I am honestly more bothered by the lack of a bath.

[isntthatsad.livejournal.com]

*Sacchin giggles again.*

Ah, so you're that kind of girl?

[bishoujo-ga-yoi.livejournal.com]

And what is that supposed to mean?

[isntthatsad.livejournal.com]

Saber is the kind of girl who values her appearance.

[bishoujo-ga-yoi.livejournal.com]

It's important for a performer to do so! What's more I simply enjoy my baths.

[isntthatsad.livejournal.com]

I used to enjoy that kind of thing as well.

[bishoujo-ga-yoi.livejournal.com]

Why no longer?

[isntthatsad.livejournal.com]

Vampires are forced to live on the underbelly of humanity. We don't have any luxuries like being able to take baths when we want to so I was forced to accept that I couldn't look my best all the time.

[bishoujo-ga-yoi.livejournal.com]

I don't understand. It's not that hard to get a bath.

[isntthatsad.livejournal.com]

It is when you don't have a house to live in.

[bishoujo-ga-yoi.livejournal.com]

You're homeless?

... how tragic.

[isntthatsad.livejournal.com]

Y-Yes. Some vampires have big fancy castles to live in but a lot of us are forced to be nomadic.

[bishoujo-ga-yoi.livejournal.com]

I see. [So you're typically royal man-shaped mosquitoes.]

[isntthatsad.livejournal.com]

*You've got it, Saber.*

Ahaha, um, anyway that's enough about me... What about you?
