There's like one place is Australia that snows consistently (Mt. Bulla; which is also the name of an ice creme brand), and I've only been once. The cold was so traumatising that I've never been again. I was out "playing" in it for about five minutes and had to spend the rest of the day thawing our in front of a heater. It was awful. Is American snow different or?
Idk if it’s different bc I have never interacted with Australian snow but yeah it’s pretty fucking cold!! When I was a kid and I’d go play out in the snow for hours, I’d come back in and my hands would hurt so bad from warming up that I’d cry lol
But if you’re doing a physical activity in the snow like skiing or snowshoeing or hiking, and you’re wearing the correct layers, then you actually start to OVERheat and you’re sweating buckets. And most of the time you’re not standing around in the snow, anyway, so you don’t get cold enough for it to matter

✦ ۫ 𑄼ల۫  ۪ DEC 8TH — FAVORITE WINTER ACTIVITIES
Tumblr media
featuring: heizou, childe, xiao, albedo, diluc, itto, scaramouche, al-haitham x gn! reader
genre: fluff, crack ૮⍝◠ ·̫ ◠⍝ა | event.
Tumblr media
✦ 𝐇𝐄𝐈𝐙𝐎𝐔
decorating the house
for heizou and you it was important to decorate and celebrate a warm and warm-hearted christmas vibe, the atmosphere being filled with both kindness and compassion, symbolizing your love to each other and the new season.
"how does this look?"
heizou held a dainty figurine in his hand, symbolizing an angel, wrapped in a white little garment as he held it on to the drawer next to the big christmas tree, being unsure if it would fit.
"I love it! it fits the white ornaments on our tree."
your glowing face was definitely better than the wintery season itself, the sides of your lips were split in an enticing smile as you walked towards him.
"i love the sound of 'our' tree."
flabbergasted with joy and delight he put the small figurine on the desk so he could place his hands on your waist, drawing you closer.
a kiss, only one, saying more than one thousand words, that threw you off reality, feeling like your feet barely touched the ground anymore.
upon pulling away, you held his cheeks in your palms, continuing, "we should continue to decorate." grabbing the silver ribbons and glitter off the table you tried to pull away from his grasp as he hooked his hand into you.
watching him with a confused expression, you continued, "there‘s still things to do on the tree."
"OUR tree, don't mess it up now."
✦ 𝐂𝐇𝐈𝐋𝐃𝐄
ice fishing
with ajax having an immense advantage surrounding this particular hobby— due to his father and him spending lots of time ice fishing together when he was little, he made it his duty to show you all the little tricks he had up his sleeve.
"wait, hold it like this."
your fingers were desperately cramping around the fishing rod, your hands struggling as he took them in his palm, wiggling you into the right direction.
"see, isn't that better?" his warm breath on your cheeks surely made you experience another familiar feeling, your smile being wide as you drew your eyes to him, thankful. "you're right."
"father and i always came here on the exact same spot, he showed me everything I'm showing you right now."
of course, you knew ajax was a big family person, his family was everything he had with you counting as a member of it as well.
the first time you met his parents you could still remember how excited he was, contentment warmed him from within when you were gradually opening up to them, laughing at each others jokes. He was so proud.
proceeding to let out some line from the fishing rod— so you could set the hook much further, you eagerly listened to the stories ajax would tell you about his childhood.
between the physical cold of the wintry day in snezhnaya, you shared each others company. An icy beauty was roaming, gently, a white sparkle as fine as any crystal would be when it began to snow, making the day very much more beautiful.
✦ 𝐗𝐈𝐀𝐎
sledding
with a puffy winter coat, xiao and you decided to go out sledding, well, not quite.
you actually had that brilliant idea and xiao followed suit, he wanted to make sure nothing was happening and that you weren't going to catch a cold, as if he could prevent that in the first place.
"are you sure you aren't too cold? we can still go back."
there it was again, your laugh echoed through the icy area as you turned around to watch xiao place the sled on the ground, his brows being slightly scrunched together in thought.
"i'm fine, are you ready though?" obviously, teasing him was one of your favorite things to practice, xiao never went sledding before and he was quite fond of the idea to share a new experience with his s/o.
"why shouldn't i be?" embarrassingly shifting his weight from side to side, he crossed his arms over his body, the cold air continuing to color his cheeks in a red hue.
"nothing nothing, we should start the fun!"
sledding every cold season comes and goes, but doing it with your s/o sure leaves its own impression, one that will always be remembered within high esteem.
with the sled down, you could feel the spine chilling wind run across your bodies when you sank onto the ground with xiao following suit.
you were sitting right in between his legs, he wanted it that way even though you had suggested to change positions, xiao still wanted you to sit particularly like that so he could drape his body over yours.
upon sliding down your faces changed with yours glistering in joy and excitement, you were pretty high up the hill, meaning that the sled was far faster than you had expected.
screaming and laughing you snuggled into xiao who held his breath because he didn't know what to do or what to say, nuzzling himself into your body and watching you well up with happiness.
it brought him a ray of happiness as well, seeing you like this.
✦ 𝐀𝐋𝐁𝐄𝐃𝐎
ice skating
you were moving in tandem with the crystal cold on you, albedo holding your hand as the both of you skated over the frozen lake in mondstadt.
if there was beauty in teyvat, it was here, in this moment, together with every weight lifted off your soul, it felt as if you were floating with him by your side.
"how are you so good at this albedo? you said it's your first time."
it was somehow hilarious how your boyfriend seemed to literally know everything by heart, even hobbies he had never tried nor thought about before.
"it is actually quite simple, the mass of the ice is nearly perfectly constructed to hold the people of mondstadt." yeah, that wasn't what you meant but you decided not to press the conversation any further, more so would he end up telling you all about the mass and construction of ice.
either way, those little quirks surely made you fall in love in the first place, albedo's fluffy hair was engulfed by the icy air, hiding significant features of his handsome face.
with your hand tightly shut around his, you continued to dance around the ice and albedo was barely able to conceal his delight. Of course, he was always itching to learn and experience new things and now, doing that, together with you?
truly the best way to greet the cold season.
✦ 𝐃𝐈𝐋𝐔𝐂
wrapping presents
every year, gifts were an exchange being made by friends and family, naturally diluc and you were quite entranced by the idea of sending various little goodies to your close ones, or at least, you were.
truth is, he could be a bit overwhelmed with it, when it came to gifting someone something he wasn't the most creative one either, really, he was struggling his butt off so he was happy to at least have you by his side.
"jean will love this homemade bread and hand written letter, I'm sure of it."
with that you looped a golden and red string over the packaged gift, placing it to the other already done goodies you had been working on earlier.
your eyes next, fell to diluc who was surprisingly struggling, his fingers were clumsily squeezing the wrapping paper over a dusty notebook.
"who is this gift for?"
curiosity caught the best off you as you rested your head against your palm, watching diluc add an ungodly amount of wrapping paper to the small book.
"kaeya."
how emotionless he let that name out, maybe he was too focused or he didn't want to talk about it. "you're gifting kaeya an old notebook?"
"it was my fathers, he should have it."
the next sight was adorable in your eyes, whenever diluc would get embarrassed his cheeks would flush red, sometimes the color would fade incredibly strong that it rivaled his hair.
"aw, that's so nice of you master diluc."
laughing and smiling, you rose up to wiggle yourself into his lap at last. Your boyfriend of course, let you, adoring nothing more than being close to you as you continued to watch him finish up kaeya's gift:
the gift he told you he wanted to wrap up himself.
✦ 𝐒𝐂𝐀𝐑𝐀𝐌𝐎𝐔𝐂𝐇𝐄
building a snowman
"this is stupid."
lets be honest here, you knew scaramouche wasn't fond of the idea of quote on quote playing in the snow, yet you still desperately wanted to build a snowman right in front of your home to uplift everyone's mood on the new developing season.
"come on, don't be a dealbreaker, you promised."
his eyes rolled in the back of his head as you spoke, but he didn't say anything, an annoyed groan was the last word you could perceive as he nearly finished the bottom of the snowman.
you could swore you saw a tiny sprinkle of a smile on him, maybe you were delusional but there was something that made it difficult for scaramouche to simply walk away or complain to you more.
"I'm only doing this for you so you better be thankful."
his focus was completely on you now, crystalized eyes watching you and waiting for some sort of reaction, or answer.
"i know and i‘m grateful for you."
knowing full on well it will make him flustered, you added a small giggle to your words as you brought your attention back to the headless snowman, attempting to grab onto the finished head.
"wait, let me do this." every person needed a harbor, a secure attachment and for scaramouche there was never a person like this, before you.
so even though he still despised the idea of building something as time consuming and stupid as a snowman— which will melt anyways, he wanted to at least try and show you that he was serious about another thing.
with a tiny bit of your help he settled the snowball on top of the body, you came prepared and added a tiny red scarf and a hat with scaramouche holding onto the carrot and two buttons.
in an attempt to give them to you, you turned away, beckoning him to do it himself as he followed with a deep sigh.
he was a bit rough at first so you had to make sure he wouldn't destroy the head of the snowman with his brute strength, but after careful guidance the both of you backed away to watch your craft it its full glory.
"our own creation."
with that, you wiggled your fingers into his. This sentence meant a lot to him, reminding him of a string of pain, with his eyes holding something akin to freedom.
✦ 𝐈𝐓𝐓𝐎
baking cookies
"DON'T TOUCH THIS ITTO IT‘S HOT!"
your screaming fell on deaf ears as itto grabbed onto the hot plate on the kitchen counter, squealing out upon making contact with it and almost throwing all of the cookies on the ground.
"ow, what the fuck?!"
with the way he was smacking the plate away, some of the cookies broke into tiny pieces as you sighed out at what your clumsy boyfriend had just did.
"noooo, we need to do it again now."
you weren't getting frustrated that often with itto's little schemes, in all honesty, you were used to it and quite accustomed to whatever measures you had to take to bath out whatever he would do or let happen.
"i didn't mean to, i swear"! worry was written all across his face with his brows being tightly scrunched together, anxiety wrinkles tickling on his forehead.
"i know, i know, lets do it again."
rubbing your eyes you walked over to your boyfriend who had an expression akin to someone who just saw a ghost as you placed your hands onto his cheeks, playfully squeezing the flesh.
"you need to concentrate."
his lips trembled as happiness threw itself at him like a comet, nodding frantically at your words as a newfound dedication swelled within him.
"okay, lets do this!"
breathing out a long sigh while shaking your head, you grabbed onto the big bowl from beforehand to start over, itto following your every step like a lost puppy who didn't know any better.
with being already familiar with the recipe, it didn't take you long to finish the dough, just a few ingredients being missing before you could go on to prepare them for the oven again.
"you know." he suddenly spoke, taking the sugar off the counter to hand it over to you with a overly confident smirk on his lips.
"what if i *did* do it on purpose to spend more time with you?"
✦ 𝐀𝐋-𝐇𝐀𝐈𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐌
stargazing + winter camping
under the darkened sky, between the clouds, in their usual mesmerizing appearence, the glow of the stars were prancing through the transparent clouds and illuminated the world within.
al-haitham and you were nuzzled together in both heavy winter coats and a couple of blankets, sipping on a cup of tea he had prepared as you gazed away.
it was intimate, but not in a sexual way, simply in a pure, soul blooming way you sadly weren‘t able to experience all the time with the both of you being busy on a daily basis.
"did you hear about the story of teyvat and their three moons?"
his warm hand was seeking you as he looped his arm over your shoulders, drawing you close.
"no, what is it about?" even though he would deny it, al-haitham had a way with words and on how to explain certain things, quite contradicting as the akademiya‘s scribe, yet it made him the perfect story teller in your eyes.
"once there were three moon sisters, named aria, sonnet and canon living in a lunar palace."
"sounds like a fairy tale." raising your brow with a giggle you nudged yourself closer to him with al-haitham‘s eyes glued to the sky.
"it might be, but who knows? the sky is endless."
you could see the stars twinkling in his unique colored eyes. No words have been spoken for a while, the proximity filled with pure calmness as the cold air was signifying the start of a new season.

Tumblr media
heeseung - as soon as he sees the snow he fr RUNS out there with you ofc. but he’s so excited and then you’re like “babe we have to put on warmer clothes we’re going to get sick!” and as much as he does want to be sick so he could be pampered by you, he decides a snow day is much more fun. together you build a snowman and he pushes you down a hill with a sled :)). and you like insists on pushing him down but he’s like no bc he doesn’t want you to do the work for him :( and when you get inside he makes ramen and hot chocolate 😭😭 </3
jay - he wakes you up bc he’s made soup and hot chocolate to contrast the cold day :( and when you’re about to go outside to play in the snow he literally puts every single jacket on you known to mankind 😭😭 and you’re like “jay that’s too many jackets! i’m sweating right now!! 😠😠” and he’s like “hun i can’t have you being sick :(“ but in the end, he makes you wear three layers plus snow pants and a hat that covers your ears :). together you make snow angels and (try to) build a snowman ☹️
jake - actually drags you out of bed to play in the snow. and like jake i feel like is the kind of guy to make tiktoks of you two dancing in the snow if your relationship was out he would post it on the enhypen acc but if it wasn’t he probably has a private account he would post it on. but you guys literally spend like an hour making that video because one of you two keeps messing up. then when you get back inside you watch corny christmas movies together and cuddle :)
sunghoon - he’ll take you to a frozen lake and he’s so happy bc he bought skates for the both of you and he like teaches you how to skate properly :((. hes like “y/n-ah you’re so bad at this” and you’re like “i know 😒😒”. and eventually you give up so you both make snow angels and he turns it into competition obvi “y/n my snow angel is way better then yours!” “no sunghoon yours has your boot prints in the legs mine don’t so mine is better 😒😒” and you keep arguing and you know he’ll never give up so you give up and gives you his lil gummy smile ☹️☹️ guys im crying
sunoo - he would get a driver to drive you guys to the city so you can see all like the tree’s with the lights and snow on them 😣😣 and he like writes on the sidewalk “y/n <3 sunoo!” but he know’s it won’t be there for long so he takes a picture of it :((. when you’re admiring the scene he secretly takes a photo of you bc you’re so cute and he wants to remember this moment forever :(. and he asks a random person walking on the street to take a photo of you two and you both make it your wallpapers 😖😖
jungwon - would make hot chocolate for you guys and add like whipped cream and peppermint bits to make it all fancy and things :(( and once you finish it you has to make sure you’re warm by putting you in his jackets 😏😏 and when you’re outside you have a little walk stopping sometimes to throw snowballs at eachother :(. then when you get back inside you two would make gingerbread houses and eat them (maybe idk i find them gross)
niki - he literally doesn’t care about getting sick so he puts on a jacket but you its different he puts you in his warmest jacket! and a sweater underneath obvi. and the whole time you’re throwing snowballs at eachother and running away from eachother and you make a life sized snowman which takes sooo long and when you make the head he has to put it on and he teases you for it obvi “y/n aish you’re so short, here i’ll put it on for you like the best boyfriend i am.” and you’re like whatever 😒 and when you add all the decorations to the snowman he gets a tripod and takes a picture of you two :( then he try’s to knock down the snowman by running into it which fails terribly.

im hoping I did this justice but like.... honestly this fic is so cute. enjoy!!
Tumblr media
The first snowfall of the year was consistently your favorite day every single year. You loved the cold, loved the snow covering every inch of nature like a beautiful pure blanket, you loved snow angels and the memories of sledding and building snowmen with your family and hot cups of coco and a million other memories clouded deep in the individual snowflakes of your childhood. 
So, when your daughter experiences her first day off from school because of the snow you’re practically more excited than she is. You’ve been awake since six, curled up in your favorite chair next to the window rotating between watching the snowfall and becoming engrossed in your favorite book. 
It takes Jeremy another hour or so to get up, you listen as your husband stirs from his sleep and sits up to see the light glinting off the snow creating a halo effect around you. You pick your head up out of your book and turn to see the definition of a prince sitting in bed looking at you. Jeremy has one arm up and resting on top of his head, his body half reclined with tired eyes roaming your figure. The blanket on the bed has slipped so most of his chest is showing and the tired but loving smile on his lips has you melting like the snow will in a couple of days. 
“Good morning,” he murmurs in that deep voice reserved just for you. 
“Morning,” you smile widely, a natural reaction around your husband. 
You place your bookmark inside your book before getting up and climbing back into bed with Jeremy. He pulls you into his side and you rest your head on his chest while his fingers trace lazy patterns on your body. 
“Do you have practice today?” 
“No,” he says, pressing a kiss to the top of your head. 
“Should we go wake up Livvy?” you ask, lifting your head so your chin rests on his chest. 
“No I think-” 
Your husband doesn’t get to finish his sentence, the words cut off by your daughter bounding into the room. She climbs up onto the bed and immediately throws herself down in the middle of you two. 
“Dad it’s snowing!” she squeals in excitement, tugging at Jeremy’s hand so he can look out the window. 
Your moment is paused from then on, your daughter dragging Jeremy to the window and eventually downstairs to eat breakfast and out the door for sledding. You join them as they start to make a snowman, grabbing all of the clothes your daughter asks for. She grabs them from you and starts to dress the snowman her and Jeremy have built. 
Jeremy steps back, making his way over to you and sliding an arm around your waist. You look up at him and he leans down to press a kiss to your lips. 
“Y’all having fun?” you ask and he hums in agreement against you. 
“Momma look!” Olivia calls and you turn to see the snowman dressed in a bruins jacket, a bruins baseball hat, stick arms, a carrot nose and a smile made out of rocks. 
“It looks perfect baby.” 
The three of you head inside for dinner and Jeremy offers to put Olivia to bed afterwards. You’re standing in the bathroom brushing your teeth when your husband sneaks in behind you, wrapping his arms around your waist and pressing his face into your shoulder. 
“Is she asleep?” you ask around a mouthful of toothpaste. 
“Out like a light,” he promises. 
He kisses your cheek before letting go and brushing his own teeth. The two of you talk for a bit before heading to bed, Jeremy holding you close while you drift to sleep. 
When you wake up, there’s a tugging on your arm and a quiet voice in your ear. Your eyes snap open realizing it’s your daughter and she has tears in her eyes as she looks at you. 
“Livvy baby, what's wrong?” you ask, sitting up in bed and dragging her into your lap. 
You pull her close, one hand cupping her head to your chest while the other fumbles for the lamp. Once it’s on, your free hand nudges Jeremy until he’s awake before you’re back to focusing your full attention on your daughter. 
“Dad read me a story about a snowman walking around town at night and stealing Christmas presents,” she chokes out, crying hysterically in your arms and you cast a glance at Jeremy who has nothing but regret on his face. 
“It’s not real baby, snowman can’t move,” you promise and your ever defiant daughter sits up in your lap and shakes her head. 
“Yes they can! I saw ours moving when I looked outside!” 
You sigh quietly before carefully maneuvering out of bed and carrying Olivia to the window and pointing outside. 
“They’re not moving baby,” you tell her but she’s still unsure. 
“What about the other snowmen?” 
So, that’s how you, Jeremy, and Olivia end up in the middle of the streets while it’s still snowing, taking a stroll to show her that snowmen don’t actually move or do anything at night. She gazes at them with fear in her eyes at first, but after seeing two or three, she’s moved on to being in awe of the Christmas lights decorating each house. 
The snow has started up again as you walk, and Jeremy pulls you close against him, a soft smile on his lips. 
“You got some snow,” he starts to say, brushing it off your hair and you smile up at him. 
“You look pretty covered in snow,” he starts to say and even after all these years you blush at his words. “Guess that’s why they’re called snow angels.” 
“Oh,” you drag out, dramatically bumping your head onto his chest. “You’re so cheesy.” 
“You love it,” he smirks. 
“I really do,” you respond and his smile widens. 
“Let’s get my girls home, yeah?”

"Who needs a sleigh when I can just ride you?"
"Someone spiked the eggnog!"
"You gave me WHAT?!" / "They gave you WHAT?!"
"Happy holidays, baby."
"I'm not drunk!" // "Oh yeah? Then why are your eyes crossed?"
"Turn on the heat." // "Oh, I will." // "No, I literally mean the heat! It's like ten degrees in here!"
"Have you been on the nice list this year?"
"I know what you're getting for Christmas..."
"It's just a wish, I know wishes don't come true." // "Who told you that?"
"Yeah, yeah, I know. You hate Christmas."

Dating Van Palmer Christmas HC’s (1996)
She also likes Christmas quite a bit
Again, not about Christmas, but Van seems like she has a few siblings
I feel she spent most of her time taking care of others, either her mom or if she had younger siblings
Her mom was there for Christmas, but she wasn’t really fully there
I feel Van would always try to have fun with Christmas, regardless of the circumstances
Unlike Jackie, I feel she loves snow, all aspects of it
She loves snowball fights, snow angels, making a snowman, shovelling snow to a certain extent, and going sledding
You and her have a snowball fight, and she’s so overly dramatic about it 
She falls over on the ground, clutching her chest like the nerd she is
Tackling you in the snow after she has been “revived” 
Making like a whole snow family with her
Walking out to a hill near her house and going down on a sled together
Type of person who, while your walking down the sidewalk, to push you into a snowbank (I definitely haven't done this to anyone)
I feel Van is not super hot or super cold at anytime
It’s nice when you sleep with her because you will never too cold or warm
Likes fudge
I feel she also likes mint flavoured stuff
Like candy canes, those peppermint patties, and not Christmas-related but like mint chocolate chip ice cream
Big fan of Christmas sweaters
Definitely the ones with the dirty jokes on them
Just in general, I know Van has funny ass shirts
Or, like really specific niche subjects on them
Christmas movies!!!!!
We can all agree that she is a huge movie buff
Older her owns a freaking video store, for fucks sake
She would be all over the holiday movies
Rewatching all the classics every year
Buying her a VHS tape of her favourite movie so she can watch it whenever she wants 
Type of person to talk all the way through a movie and quote it even though she has watched it a million times
Makes so many Christmas puns and dad jokes
“Hey, you know what's different about the Christmas alphabet?”
“It has noel”
“ wait ! I have myrrh puns”
And she laughs her ass off, no matter how stupid it is
She’s the type of person to not be able to hold her laughter in while she’s trying to tell you the joke, only for the punchline to not even be that funny
I feel like Van really likes Christmas trees
Loves setting it up each year and decorating it
If the place you live has a huge Christmas tree, lighting she would be very excited to go 
(Do people actually do these ? My town doesn't do that stuff; I only see it in movies)
Also loves making gingerbread houses, but is way less serious than Shauna
Your trying to build it and look over, and she is eating that icing straight from the bag and any candy or chocolate you have to decorate it 
She is very bad at wrapping presents
They are all very messy and folded, and you can see part of the gift
But it's the thought that counts
She smiles as she hands you a present horribly wrapped with a mountain of tape around it 
Or she would be the type to get you a gag gift for a joke and then give you the actual present 
Like the box inside the box thing
But in the end, the gift is so sweet and thoughtful

okay ill give you two options so you can pick.
jordelia with cordelia doing a dance like in the books and james just simping
or
thomastair having a date in the snow with sledding :)
I did a bunch of Jordelia ones yesterday and also still have a Jordelia one in my inbox, so I'm opting for the Thomastair one :) Will definitely keep the Jordelia in mind for future potential fic fodder, though.
-
"Angel," Alastair said, looking out the window of the bedroom he shared with Thomas Lightwood. "It's as though the heavens decided to unleash some cosmic punishment against all of London's residents."
Thomas wrapped his arms around his middle, and Alastair relaxed into the touch. "Cosmic punishment?" His voice was soft. "For what?"
After careful consideration, Alastair shrugged. "The ridiculous quantity of eggs that the denizens of this city use in a single day? The terrible trend of wearing decorative plumes in one's headwear? Who is to day?" He sighed and ran the hand that was not cupping Thomas's through his hair. "I am not looking forward to shoveling this behemoth of a snowfall. Is there any chance that you might do it all?"
Thomas kissed Alastair's ear. "No, we agreed to split such things, and even your wonderful nature cannot tempt me to take all of it upon myself. But as a sort of consolation prize, I will warm you up afterward."
Alastair chuckled. "Alright, I agree to your terms."
"But," Thomas continued, and Alastair could see his eyes shining in their reflection in the window. "I do wish to do something fun before we go down and begin toiling away at our much-dreaded task."
Alastair raised an eyebrow. "Oh?"
He tried to continue, but Thomas grabbed his hand and pulled him through the front door.
-
"I do not have very many kind things to say right now," Alastair sniped. "The only thing that will not make you chide me for my rudeness is that your thought process is unique. I don't know that I have ever ridden in a sled before outside of horrific events that I spent praying to the Angel would end."
"I didn't get to go sledding much as a child, either," Thomas said. "In case it would upset my fragile constitution. My parents preferred to keep me indoors during the cold weather; one year, Uncle Will took me to the market, and I caught a chill that convinced Mother that it was the end. It was not worth the anxiety it caused them, after that."
"Oh," was all Alastair could say. "Well, I suppose that I ought to indulge you, then. Attempt to keep an open mind as we embark on this new adventure together."
"Alright," Thomas said. "I think the first thing to do is sit in the sled." He paused. "You might wish to go first so I can settle in behind you; you are smaller, moosh-am, and I would not wish to take up so much space that you cannot squish in."
"Do not call me a little mouse again," Alastair said, settling into the sled. "I do not wish to become cross with you, Tom."
Thomas stuck out his tongue. "Well, I'm sorry about this, then."
"What are you apologizing for?" Alastair asked, before realizing belatedly that he had settled into a sled on the top of their hilly yard. His weight pressed the sled down the slope, and he was sent down to the bottom of the incline, cursing in Persian.
Thomas rolled down the hill after him, laughing. "I think that was quite a good lark," he said. "Though I will have you know that I am taking the next slide with you thoroughly nestled between my thighs."
"I am still not over this," Alastair said. "I may hold a grudge forever. I still may get you back for this."
"Alright," Thomas agreed. "I-"
But his response was too late. A lightly-thrown, soft snowball hit him in the face. He sputtered, but Alastair was already laughing.

We don't get snow where I live so I get to live vicariously through this fic
Tumblr media
(Sfw) Playing in the snow with Venti
Tumblr media
Characters: Venti x GN!Reader
Warnings: None, the reader is implied to be taller than Venti and strong enough to carry him
WC: 841 words
Tumblr media
"C'mon Y/N! The snow's at the perfect thickness!"
You let out a sigh and take a moment to stop pulling the sled, instead glancing up at your lover, who's standing at the top of Starsnatch Cliff, flashing you a wide grin. The harsh winds and freezing temperatures had forced the bard to switch out his usual attire for something warmer. The hand-knitted scarf that you had wrapped around his neck was loosening a bit, letting you get a peak at his Rudolph-red nose and see his breath puff out with each exhale.
“I’m coming, I’m coming…”
You flash him a tired smile and keep tugging the sled uphill. When you manage to catch up to Venti, you take a moment to really appreciate his appearance.
The snowfall had decorated his hair, forming what almost looked like an ice veil down the strands. When he blinked, you could see the tiniest of snowflakes clinging to his lashes. The tips of his ears, just like his nose, were bright red and despite his divine powers, a shiver ran through his body.
"You're staring quite a bit, Windblume," Venti teases, knocking you out of your trance. "You can stare more later. I wanna go sledding!"
He bends down and pulls the sled up as much as possible, nearly toppling over as he reaches the steepest part of the cliff. You look back in the direction you came from, cringing at the way the environment melts into the snowy landscape the further you look.
"Are you sure this is safe? I can barely see past 20 meters," you ask, squinting to get better focus on the objects in the distance.
"Absolutely! You don't trust me?"
✦✧✦✧
Snow-covered hilichurls turn their head in surprise at the sounds of you two screaming as you speed down the cliff. Snow and ice are flung everywhere and you've long since lost your beanie due to the sheer speed of the sled that’s sending you two zooming down Starsnatch Cliff. Genuine fear for your life is plastered on your face, while Venti's screams are of excitement and joy, a smile that you swear can’t get any bigger glued to his.
You two hadn't managed to hit any obstacles, something you could probably thank Venti's anemo powers for, but that doesn't make the potential danger any less imminent.
"slowdownslowDownSlowDownSLOWDOWN!!!"
You plead, grabbing the ropes of the sled and tugging hard in an attempt to stop, or at least slow down. Instead, the action jerks both of you to the side and down another path. Venti nearly gets thrown off the sled before he can react, leaving him unable to stop you two from crashing into a giant rock. The impact forces you two off the sled and sends you flying through the air. You consider for a moment, getting your wind glider out to catch the air before you crash, but by the time you move to unfurl the wings, you're lodged halfway into a giant pile of snow. Venti is quick to follow suit, his legs kicking out frantically as his upper body gets lodged in a pile of snow and ice.
You eventually manage to free yourself from the snow pile, falling back on your boat. You shiver as the cold seeps into your bones, and you suddenly wish you had put on an extra layer of warm clothes. When Venti manages to get out of the snow pile as well, he falls on his back, letting out a shudder. He turns to you, his face red all over. You want to curse at him, scold him, or even just shoot him a glare-- but the earnest smile and the excitement melt away all your frustrations.
"Let's make snow angels next, Y/N!"
He doesn't wait for a response, immediately waving his arms and legs up and down to make the snow art. You turn to look back up at the sky, the overcast weather and gentle snowfall adding to the overall ambience of your environment.
"..yeah, let's."
You mimic Venti's actions, shivering as the snow melts under your warmer body and drips into your coat sleeves. The rest of your outing is spent filling the field with snowmen, snow angels, and other snow creations. When the sky finally darkens and the sunset peeks through the clouds, you're carrying an exhausted Venti on your back, beginning your journey back to a warm home.
✦✧✦✧
The next day, both of you woke up with a high fever and the chills. The consequences of playing all day in the snow and not stopping to warm up at all. Currently, you two were cuddling under a large comforter, with Venti laying on top of you with his limbs sprawled out. His hair tickled your chin as he lay there, dozing off. You look down at him, absentmindedly playing with his hair, and you can’t help your smile slowly growing.
Despite how stuffed up and generally gross you both felt, the extra time spent together in each others embrace made up for that fact.

Snowman (Dieter Bravo x OFC!Andie)
A Merry Fic-Mas - December 28
Tumblr media
Part of A Merry Fic-Mas: A Pedro Boy Holiday Fic Calendar - click for masterlist.
Follow my writing blog @ladameecrit and turn on notifications to keep up with my writing.
Pairing: Dieter Bravo x OFC!Andie (set in the Curls universe)
Rating: Teen
Warnings: None. This is pure unadulterated fluff. For those who haven’t read Curls (and should): Dieter and Andie have two kids, Charlie and Ezra. Nate is Dieter’s agent. 
Word count: 1047
A/N: For @agentjackdaniels, with love. 
Tumblr media
Charlie Bravo’s Frozen phase came with a special bonus. 
Every time a certain adorable snowman waddled onto the screen during one of her umpteenth rewatches, she would squeal with delight and point excitedly, yelling: “DADDY! It’s Daddy!”, before collapsing in fits of giggles. 
“I could murder Nate,” Dieter mutters to Andie in the kitchen as Charlie twirls around in the family room one hot summer day, belting out a garbled version of “Let It Go” at the top of her lungs, her little brother Ezra joining in with the occasional “GO” roared in harmony. “Why did he have to say I looked like Olaf? And why did he have to point it out to our Frozen-obsessed child?”
Andie ruffles his messy curls and smiles. “You can’t murder Nate, he’s an amazing agent and probably your best friend and I can’t possibly be responsible for you if he’s not around.” She takes a step back and surveys her husband. “And anyway, babe, he’s kinda got a point.”
Before Dieter can respond, his daughter appears, in search of some juice. 
“Why can’t we have snow?” Charlie asks, sipping on her juice box with great concentration.
“Because we live in LA, sweetheart, not Arendel.” Her father scoops her up and sits her on the counter, and Charlie traces the fading logo on Dieter’s well-worn t-shirt with her pointer finger.
“Can we go to Arendel?” 
Andie makes a “change the subject” face at Dieter behind Charlie’s back. 
“Oh, it’s very far away and I don’t think you’d like the long journey, Charlie. Hey - you want to go get some frozen yoghurt later?”
Charlie turns and stares solemnly at her father. “I would rather have snow.”
***
Nate makes it happen. On Charlie’s birthday, in late October, he hands her a Frozen-themed gift box and grins as she opens it to find a soft Olaf plush toy, before immediately giggling and pointing at Dieter.
The agent takes the little girl’s hand and dances her around the room, singing. “Do you want to build a snowmaaaaan? Well, do you, Charlie Bravo?”
She nods with great intensity.
“Ah, well.” A wide smile appears on Nate’s face. “In that case, ask your gorgeous mother there to have a look at what else is in the box.”
Andie reaches inside and finds a pale blue envelope. Inside is a brochure for a family-friendly ski resort in Aspen. 
“If snow can’t come to Charlie Bravo, Charlie Bravo shall come to the snow!” Nate beams and his husband Eamon offers a solo round of applause. 
“Nate, are you serious?” Andie is agog at the gorgeous photos of the chalets and restaurants, though already starting to worry about kitting out her entire family with ski gear. 
“Deadly serious, love. Booked it for early December, should be some lovely snow at that time. Don’t feel you need to do the whole skiing thing, either - actually, Dieter? Don’t go skiing. Please, for the love of all that’s holy, don’t go skiing. I’m not negotiating with production insurers for you again.”
***
The snow was, as Nate predicted, lovely. Perfect, in fact. 
Dieter did as he was bid and stuck to some sledding and playing with the kids, discovering Charlie’s impressive aim in a snowball fight within a few hours of their arrival. 
Andie is zipping Ezra out of his bright orange snowsuit, fearful he might get too cold, when Dieter and Charlie, still clad in their brightly-coloured winter gear, appear at the door of the chalet.
“Angel, she said you need to come and help her build the special snowman.”
Charlie bounces up and down with excitement and starts to sing loudly, startling her little brother and making him wail. Andie scrambles to her feet and hands Dieter his golden-haired son. 
“You take him, watch some Bluey if he won’t calm down. Me and Charlie have been planning our special snowman build for weeks. Alright, Charlie Bravo, let me just get my boots on and then…” She leans in to her little girl’s ear and sings quietly: “Do you want to build a snowman?”
***
Ezra has fallen asleep and Dieter feels like he’s about to nod off himself. He can still hear Charlie and Andie shrieking and laughing outside, so he scoops up the little boy and wanders towards the main bedroom in search of his favourite comfort clothing: green robe and Crocs, fleece-lined for the colder conditions.
He lays Ezra down on the bed and opens the closet, rifling through the clothing Andie has already hung up in search of his robe. 
No robe.
And only his older pair of Crocs, too. Did he forget? He never forgets. Not these things, anyway. He’s been packing them for every trip he’s taken for the last fifteen years.
He is about to slip on a hoodie when he hears Andie and Charlie calling to him from the front door.
“Come see, Daddy! Come seeeeee!”
“Don’t worry about getting Ezra dressed back up, Dee!” Andie adds cheerily. “You’ll see the surprise from the front door.”
There, just outside their holiday chalet, is Charlie’s perfect snowman. Not Olaf, but her daddy. Literally.
The snowman has some twigs stuck here and there in lieu of Dieter’s messy hair, and a pair of his Ray-Bans rest on the snowman’s carrot nose. Dieter spies his new Crocs tucked in at the base of the figure, already covered in snow. 
So much for the fleece lining, he thinks to himself.
And, as the finishing touch: the green robe, carefully wrapped around the bright white figure. 
“It’s a Daddy Olaf!” Charlie squeals, and Dieter immediately forgets about the waterlogged Crocs and the fact that his precious green robe is going to be soaking wet and just revels in his daughter’s joy, pure as the driven snow.
Andie beams at him, dark curls poking out from under her bright pink pom-pom ski hat.
His girls. His little boy, in his arms. And a new, frozen addition to the family. 
Perfect.
“It’s beautiful, Charlie!” he calls out to her. “Tomorrow, how about we make him a friend, hmmm? Mama’s got plenty of clothes that would look just great on a snowlady.”

ship: Jonathan Byers/Chrissy Cunningham wc: 0.9k A/N: their dynamic feeds my love for grumpy/sunshine so much you don't understand
Tumblr media
“Please?” Chrissy asked. 
She was looking at her boyfriend with the most pitiful face she could possibly muster. She was all puppy dog eyes and pouty lower lip, and Jonathan Byers was not immune to the adorability of Chrissy Cunningham.
The thing about Chrissy was that she loved the snow. Winter was her most favorite season, and she was enamored by the way their town turned into a wonderland after the first snow of the season. She was the kind of girl who loved her color-coordinated earmuffs and mittens and scarfs, and she loved playing childish games in the snow no matter how old she got. Snow angels, sledding, snowball fights - she loved them all, and she looked forward to the first day that she was able to enjoy them every year. 
Today specifically, her heart was set on building a snowman, and she’d been begging Jonathan to make one with her from the moment she got to his house. Unfortunately for him, he hated the cold. He would much rather spend a day like today snuggled up with his girlfriend under a blanket and listening to whatever albums they took turns choosing. But, if she really wanted to be out in the cold, he was willing to go out there with her. Besides, what better way was there to warm back up than his ideal winter day?
“Go get your coat,” he said with a sigh and a small smile.
Chrissy's pout vanished instantly, and she was all smiles as she leaned in to kiss his cheek before leaving the couch to go get herself bundled up for the cold. In her puffy white coat and ice blue accessories, she was his tiny snow queen.
They’d only gotten two or three inches of snow the night before, and it wasn’t the best packing snow, but she was insistent that it would be good enough for them to make a proper snowman as long as they didn’t stomp through too-much of the untouched snow as they moved around the backyard. Jonathan’s job was to work on the base of the snowman, and she’d work on the torso and head.
They made quick work of moving about the yard and rolling up their pieces of the snowman, but it was soon apparent that this wasn’t going to be the picture perfect snowman that Chrissy had been envisioning. Because the snow wasn’t packing easily, the large snowballs weren’t exactly round. They were lumpy and awkwardly shaped, and they’d picked up dirt and grass from the yard leaving brown and green splotches against the white snow. And, by the time he’d finished the base and she’d finished the torso, there wasn’t really enough usable snow to make him a head.
“It’s fine,” Chrissy insisted. “He can just be extra short. He doesn’t have to have a torso.”
Jonathan lifted the head onto the body as Chrissy ran around the yard collecting little bits of nature to decorate him with. In the end, their stumpy, little snowman had a crooked mouth made out of pebbles, hair made out of weeds, one rather large pine cone eye and a much smaller one, and stick arms that were considerably different lengths.
They stood back to admire their handiwork, and both were silent for a moment.
“This might be the ugliest snowman I’ve ever seen,” Jonathan said as he tried to stifle a laugh.
“You would call our child ugly?” Chrissy asked, her eyes going wide.
“He’s our child?”
“We made him together, didn’t we?”
“Well, yeah, but look at him. He’s more of a snowgremlin than a snowman.”
“I like that he’s ugly. It gives him character,” she said, stifling a giggle of her own. “What do you think we should call him?”
“You pick.”
Chrissy thought for a few seconds before clapping her hands together.
“Mr. Grumpus.”
“You’d name our child Mr. Grumpus?”
“He looks like a Mr. Grumpus!”
Finally, they both burst out laughing with Chrissy clinging to Jonathan for support.
“Okay, maybe he is the ugliest little snowgremlin I’ve ever seen,” Chrissy said once she’d finally calmed down enough to speak. “I just think he’s neat.”
“Wait right here for a second, okay?” Jonathan said as he headed towards the house. “I’ll be right back.”
When he returned, he was carrying his camera.
“To preserve him for posterity.”
He snapped a few pictures of the snowgremlin by itself before Chrissy jumped in to pose with their creation, first smiling sweetly and then mimicking the grumpy expression on its face.
“Thank you for doing this with me,” she told him once he finished. “I know you hate being out here almost as much as I love it.”
“I wouldn’t do this for just anyone, you know. But I think you’re worth it.”
Chrissy stood on her tiptoes to wrap her arms around him and give him a kiss.
“How about you take me back inside and lend me some warm pajamas?” she suggested. “As a thank you for putting up with the cold for me, I’ll let you pick the first three albums we listen to as long as we can have cocoa, too.”
“That sounds pretty doable to me.”
He gave her one more kiss before leading her back into the house knowing that even with her offer, he’d still choose her favorites from his collection for each and every one of his turns.

If you feel like it, can you write something where Max (and any of your other favourite TIG characters) has a cute snow day with his partner?
Thank you so much for your request, I absolutely love that idea. 🖤
Let's start with Max this time.
Tumblr media
As soon as the first snowflake falls to the ground he would be excited like a little boy. He'd love to go sledding with her, laughing and joking around while constantly falling in the cold snow, playful fighting and kissing her cold nose.
Tumblr media
He was never someone who enjoyed being out in the cold but since him and his girlfriend are together he loves nothing more than taking long walks in the snow. Taking in the beauty of nature and admiring her red cheeks and nose. After that he'd light the fireplace at home, making some tea and spend the rest of the day cuddling on the sofa watching old movies.
Tumblr media
His girlfriend has to beg him to go out with her cause he hates to be in the cold. But when he sees how disappointed she looks he'd give in. He still wouldn't be in the best mood so his girlfriend starts a snowball fight and as we all know Terry hates to lose so he would give his best, and would have some fun even when it's cold. They would end the day having a nice hot bath together.
Tumblr media
Cash does everything to make his girlfriend happy even if it's freezing cold and she wants to go to a beautiful, small, christmas market, having some hot chocolate, looking at all the stands with handcrafted things. Cash is more the serious type but at the end of the day she could convince him to make snow angels with her.
Tumblr media
He loves to be outside with his girlfriend. He has a very dangerous and exhausting job so he enjoys every single second he has with his girlfriend. He loves the winter especially when it's cold outside and everything is covered in snow so he always has an excuse to wrap his arms around her, holding her close to his body. Life is too short to be dead serious all the time so if she wants to build a snowman they build a snowman. And it would be the best snowman ever.
Tumblr media
He absolutely loves the winter. Riding through the snow, playing catch with his girlfriend to release all the stress and tention he feels as a general. On these days he's just Taligaro having some quality time with his beloved, especially at night at the campfire when he keeps her warm.
Tumblr media
Seasons didn't really matter to him until he met his girlfriend. She loves the winter and mostly ice skating. It would be weird to him at first but when he sees her gliding over the frozen lake with so much elegance and beauty, he couldn't help but join her,holding hands and getting lost in the moment. He would hold her close to his body dancing with her till it's time to go home.

December 12th, Snow disking.
Tumblr media
Today will be your first time snow disking. Matthew has been doing it for years and is so happy that you are finally going to be able to enjoy this activity with him.
"it's Kind of like sledding, except it's smaller. You just sit on this little disk and you go sliding down the snow" he explained to you.
Despite the fact that you have on at least 12 layers of clothes, you're still cold. And you know that snow disking is going to leave you even colder once you flop into the snow. But you always have fun with Matthew, no matter how cold you are. Because, you know, the his hugs and cuddles can always warm you up.
Matthew got on the snow disc and went down a small hill to demonstrate what's going to happen when you're riding the disc.
"see just like sledding" he smiled.
You gave it a try and had fun. Of course you would. As I have said, everything with Matthew is fun. After Matthew went down a particularly high hill, he rolled off of the snow disc and landed in the snow.
You weren't sure of the silhouette of an Angel in the snow was done intentionally by him, or if that was just the natural shape that he left behind.
After about an hour of snow disking you and Matthew decided it was time to call it a day. That was until Matthew decided that he wanted to make a double snow Angel with you. So the two of you laid side by side, holding hands as you made a snow Angel.
Now the snow angels were holding hands just like the people that made them.
The two of you went home and you were freezing, Matthew offered. For you to take a nice hot shower. Just like he always does after a day of snowy fun, he knows how cold you get. And wants to make sure that you are always warm and comfortable. When you come out of the shower, you see that there is Chinese cartons lining your coffee table.
You walk over to the couch wearing your red Christmas pajamas that have snowmen all over them. You see all of the cartons all over the table, two plates and two forks. Matthew knows that you still won't be up to the challenge of eating with chopsticks. 
"How long was I in the shower for?" You asked putting your hand on his shoulder."
"Not long. I ordered all of this when you were at the top of the last hill. I was hoping that I would be able to get it delivered while you were in the shower and surprise you when you came out." he told you.
"well you did" you smiled.
"I got all of our favorites like last time, and this time I even made sure that we got our fortune cookies. Last time. They didn't give them to us."
"Good. I always enjoy reading The Little Fortunes." You tell him, leaning forward and picking up a carton of fried rice to place some on your green plate that Matthew has provided for you.
Matthew chose the movie to watch tonight, Jack frost He thought it was appropriate to have a movie about a snowman after such a fun snow day.
After the two of you ate your dinner, Matthew brought over three fortune cookies. "They gave me 3 this time." He told you.
Handing you two of the fortune cookies before sitting down next to you, "are you going to open up your cookie and read your fortune?" He asked you.
You opened the first cookie, "What does it say inside?" He asked You. "
You are going to have a wonderful, happy, joy filled Christmas that will be truly magical.Wow, that is oddly specific." You told him with a smile
"Open the next one", he told you. "Why don't you open yours? I want to know what yours says. It's not fair that I get to open two cookies before you even get to open one".
"OK,"he says with a chuckle. "You are going to spend Christmas with the love of your life. Sounds true to me", he told you before popping a piece of cookie in his mouth.
"Why are these cookies so specific? You asked him before opening your second cookie, removing the piece of paper from inside and reading it.
"I'm going to love you forever today, Tomorrow for the rest of my life." you read the words on the piece of paper.
"How did you do that?" You asked him. 
"It's magic Honey, I can't tell you. A magician never reveals his secrets. Just know that everything that was on those papers is true". 
He told you before kissing you and reaching for the blanket that's on the back of the couch and covering the two of you up so that you could finish watching the movie. The red fluffy blanket provided warmth, but not as much warmth as Matthew's loving arms. You knew that the words on those papers were true, and that Matthew was going to make sure this was the most magical Christmas ever.
