WHO: All of Navi’s passengers.
WHAT: A winter wonderland visit with your new brainmates.
WHERE: All over Vivamion City - and on Navi, if you want.
WHEN: The next three weeks (Dec. 7-28).
WARNINGS: Add these to your comment subject lines as needed! And if you get taken out by a super snowball, please report it on the death page.

Gooooood morning passengers! Time to rise and shine - with a very important Navi announcement incoming:

Attention, passengers.
We'll be landing soon on the planet Trelnar,
near Vivamion City.
We'll be docked for three weeks, local time,
which coincides with the city’s annual winter festival.
Should you require any weather-appropriate clothing,
I will handle the bill for your expenses.
Please stand by for atmospheric entry.

Have fun! As Navi said in their message, any passenger who requires a warm winter coat, scarf, hat, gloves, and/or boots before joining the festivities will be able to select such items from one of the shops near the docks, charged to Navi’s account. Passengers will also find a bank counter just past the docking terminal, where your new windfall of Navigems can be exchanged for credits (the universal currency). Try not to spend it all in one place!

Let it Snow let it snow let it snow.

Honestly despite Canada and hockey and everything, Alex has lived in the Pacific North West her entire life which means that her snow days have been pretty few and far between. Even in her time in Seattle, it's only snowed a handful of times, so for the moment Alex Reagan is rather entranced by the world of white around her. Just like herself, she of course gets too involved in things like snowball fights, and snow angels. So, feel free to be hit with a snowball or something like that before there's a giggling apology.

Toe pick!

While there wasn't a lot of snow in Vancouver, one thing that there was tons of: ice rinks. While Alex doesn't think that being able to skate and loving hockey is quite as much of a law as some people may claim it to be, it definitely was one in her house. One of the first things that had happened after her adoption was that the Reagans had taken her and taught her how to ice skate, and Alex took to it like a fish to water. Well, frozen water in this case. Perhaps more importantly, though, Alex played hockey in high school.

Come on, did you really think she didn't?

So, she can be found twirling her way around the ice rink. Alex skates both forward and backwards, but she does it with power and speed of a blunt sort--there's not anything that's pretty in it. But Alex is a good teacher if someone doesn't know how to skate.

a very late tag-in oops

Guess who's walking around and not expecting to get beaned in the head by an errant snowball - it's this little Archivist! Jon is in fact so startled by the stray projectile, he's knocked clean off his feet and topples over into a small snowdrift on the side of the path. He lands with a short yelp, spilling the contents of the package in his arms onto the ground. It's just a few tins of various specialty teas - luckily sealed tight - and they end up scattered nearby.

Jon is too bewildered by the accidental assault to do anything but lie there, stunned, for a long moment. At least the snowball wasn't hard enough to leave a scar?

While Alex considers herself to be able to throw a mean snowball, she never would have thought that she would have been able to knock someone down with one. No matter who it had been who'd met that fate, she would have rushed over to try and help them up, but of course she'd definitely do it for a friend. Moving quickly and with a certainity that she's not going to slip on anything, Alex heads over to him, snatching up the tea that's in her path on the way to him.

"Jon?" Her voice is quick, and she leans over him. "Are you okay?"
