t's very, very cold. It's cold enough that you'll see your breath fog in the air before you, that goosebumps appear on your arms and legs and a chill goes up your spine. You're inside, in a huge palace with sweeping arches and rooms, but it's no real shelter from the cold -- it's just as cold inside as out.
There's a throne room, a kitchen, various rooms and even a dungeon to be explored -- and outside, a frigid, frozen garden, a lake that's naturally frozen over, and miles, and miles of snow as far as the eye can see.
But be careful while you explore. The snowflake soldiers are naturally dangerous, but even more dangerous than that...there's that creeping sensation of numbness going up your arm, a pang through your chest, and the slow, slow freezing from the inside out.
Try not to leave any of your friends behind, okay? Even if they might look a bit too uncannily like some of the statues hanging around for decoration when they're frozen over.

You think mine's any better? [ Choubee decides to approach the knight that he had defeated, reaching down to pat its body down for anything that could be useful. There's nothing of value, of course, and he clicks his tongue while deciding to continue down the hallway. ]
How bad is it anyway? [ A short pause. ] Your vision, do you gotta wear glasses all the time?
no subject
Well, yes. My eyesight used to be a lot better around last year? But it slowly deteriorated over time... Even this pair doesn't cut it these days, but I suppose this is better than wandering around blind without them.
[ he'll. just have to hold onto the guy's wrist for now as they make their way down the hall towards... uh. ]
Where are we going, by the way?
1/2
But it's something to note over, in Choubee's perspective. Tsumugi without his glasses would be more of hindrance and the thought alone of having to carry him across this damn castle is more work than he's bargained for.
so ugh... protec... ]
Y'know! We're going to uh --
no subject
Oof!
[ cause choub's just slipped on some ice stairs and now their tumbling down.
listen i thought about this all day and couldn't stop laughing please ]
no subject
tsumugi falls along with hi, rolling down the stairs quite comically until they reach the ground with an oof. his glasses drop off from his face and onto the floor with a clatter as well, the lens gaining yet another crack from the impact. ]
Uuu, a-are you okay?
[ okay hold on, let him just find that pesky pair again by pawing on the floor for it. ]
no subject
No, I'm not fine, all that's cushionin' my fall is fuckin' more ice!
[ But he'll live through it. Complaints aside, Choubee is quickly shrugging off any initial numbness and spotting the way Tsumugi moves across the floor in search of his glasses from the corner of his eye. His lips press tightly together, and after a small search he's nudging the younger man by his shoulder. ]
Here. [ And in his hands: glasses! ] They're cracked, though.
