Who: YOU
What: SNOW
When: DECEMBER 4th
Where: EVERYWHERE
Warnings: SNOW

As a quiet Sunday morning dawned on the school's campus, one could perhaps...feel it in the air. A creeping chill, a silent, barely-detectable indication that yes. Today would be the day.

Today, it would snow.

And if Chibi were a more conventional wolf cub, Jon would have reciprocated with a quick and gentle nip on the ear to focus his attention back on the speaker. However, he didn't relish the idea of being smite-ed by Ameratsu, so let the boy pounce around as he pleased.

"Let me show you." he said, placing his hand deliberately down in front of Chibi. "My paws and yours are pretty different, but it works the same either way - spread your toes. Like this." He lay his hand flat. "New, fluffy snow will still make you sink a little, but if you move fast, yeah? Flat paws spread your weight better, cause the snow to sink less."

He gave a wolfish grin. "Wolves and snow go together like bears and woods, or rabbits and pasture. We've a long history of snowy hunting grounds."

"Hunting?" Chibi said, trying out the little trick. He pushed his paws down into the snow and seemed delighted at the newfound resistance. The big wolf-man might just know what he was talking about!

"I wouldn't know about that! I've never been hunting!..except for demons, I guess." He gave a few experimental trots in a circle, trying to get the hang of this newfound way to run.

Ahh. Hunting demons. Interesting - was this little wolf going to grow up to be a Darkhunter? A little canine B. B. Hood? Cute but deadly? Who knew.

"Never been hunting? How old are you? You look old enough to at least be brought injured, weaker game. Though if you're already hunting demons, then maybe hobbled rabbits and rats are behind your capabilities."

He sat up a little straighter in the snow, watching the smaller wolf test the movements out. "The more you practise, the more natural it will feel. Eventually, you'll be able to run as fast as you please, even over fresh or slushy snow."
