❄️

“Ehh I think it might have to do with humans liking the heat more because of all the extra vitamin D or something, makes you feel good so you want to be in it, I am sure many of them do bundle up when it gets cold though, I mean not me, I like not being bogged down by many layers…” The other did seem to have an idealized view of his creation, Able knew the cold could be just as deadly as the heat. “Heh I mean both have their dangers, and both have their beauties, but if you are cold on a Winter day, bundling up and watching the snow fall with a hot drink seems mighty fine~”

“There’s nothing at all that could be beautiful about that dreadful hot weather! Nothing at all!” The Snow Miser lifts his hands up in the air in an exasperated gesture.

He’s aware there are plenty of crazy people in this world who feel otherwise and he’s content to agree to disagree with them. Fighting gets a person nowhere. He’s old enough to know that. He rolls his eyes a bit. “Least not to me.”

“Well EVERYTHING about me  makes hot weather uncomfortable for me, heh the sun hurts my eyes, it burns my skin, it’s overall rather hot, I do like warm, but I don’t like HOT..” He chuckled and shook his head. “Most people preffer the hotter weather, I guess I’m just a bit of an odd duck eh?” He wouldn’t lie about what he was, and what he was was an oddity~

“Odd duck...” The phrase seems to amuse the Snow Miser. He presses a finger to his own lips and grins. “The odd and the unusual ones are always the most interesting and always the ones most likely to be remembered.” Never a bad thing to be a unique individual.

He then rests a hand on his chest. “I can’t make a bit of sense of anyone with a preference for the terrible heat! Even if none of you can enjoy the cold as much as me, couldn’t you just.. bundle up? But when it comes to the hot weather, there’s nothing you can do to escape it! Best you can hope for is a bit of cold to save you!”

The touch while cold was not unpleasant, and he held his hand, shaking it exactly three times, a little waif of steam escaping between their fingers, as something really hot, and something really cold met. “Yeah heh, s’ just how I burn, it’s hot… but it makes the cold nice~! Not so cold that I’m freezing, I can enjoy days like this in a tank top if I wished~”

“Interesting. Does your heightened body heat mean that hot weather is more uncomfortable to you? I would have thought you liked warmth!” The Snow Miser lifts his hands and pokes at the air. He’d like to curiously poke at Able’s cheeks, but he’s concerned that may be condescending or rude. So he resists the temptation to poke at his new friend.

“It’s a pleasure to meet you Mr Snow Miser” He said and chuckled, it wouldn’t be a bad thing to have Winter as a friend, hell friends were never a bad thing, and Able didn’t see a problem with too many. At the offer of a handshake, he tilted his head and chuckled, holding a hand out. “Cold never bothered me anyways, hand shake it is..~”

The handshake is a bit like touching ice. Even before Able makes contact with the Snow Miser, he can feel coldness in the air around him.

“..Able A pleasure I am sure” This was definitely some form of nature spirit, best to stay polite and cordial, after all the man had done nothing but be the same in kind, and hell  it never hurt to be nice to  anyone. “And yourself? Though I feel it almost goes without saying hn?~”

The Snow Miser smiles a friendly smile. “I’ve been called by many names over my long existence. Most of my close friends call me the Snow Miser. I would be happy to consider you a friend. If you’d like to call me by another name instead, I doubt I would mind it. I’m a big fan of fun nicknames!”

“It’s good to meet you, Able. I do not get out and talk to people outside of my palace often.” This meeting is special indeed! “If you don’t mind a bit of the cold, we could shake hands! But if you prefer a tip of the hat, I can do that too!”

“Yeah I’ve met a few, shame, it’s a lovely time of year~” The little bit of a show made him grin, snow moving to stick to his shirt, and lightly bite at his  skin. “ Their loss I’d say~ Winter’s a vital thing..”

“Smart lad!” Even if a person doesn’t like the cold weather, it’s necessary to balance the world. Mother Nature could tell a person all about it. Frankly, Snow Miser wouldn’t mind it much if the world went out of balance towards Winter’s favor. Another Ice Age would be a delight for him.

“Heh ofcourse I am~ I’m always burning hot, so the cool weather and soft snow are a welcome relief, heh finally a part of the year where I can wear a short sleeve shirt and NOT fear the sun~!” He grinned lightly. “Hey we all got our biases, you rock your look too~”

“..Oh, thanks” He ran his hand through his hair, smiling a little bit, the red dig however, almost made him roll his eyes. “Heh yeah, the red shirt’s to counter balance ya know’” Tapping near his eye then. He was quite far from human, well nowadays he was anyway.

“I quite obviously have a bias.” He can recongize that. The Snow Miser gestures down to his own outfit. “It’s only cool colors for me!”

“Oh dear. Seems we got a problem here.”

He taps his finger against the side of the cup and in an instant the contents are frozen into a solid chunk. A chocolate ice cube.

There they are .. and they are so much more aligned than she originally thought. Bella tilts her head at the little snowmen, tailing behind them with a pensiveness. They’re so tiny … and so alike. She can’t help but study them from behind ; their details and their little shoes, ears twitching to perk for any further sound they make.

So curious.

—- And upon entering the chilling chamber, realization hits. Even to a half-breed vampire, this chill is enough to make her eyes shrink and hands draw up to her arms, instinctively rubbing at them for warmth! Even though she’s bundled up beneath the cloak she previously put a warming spell on, this cold is .. well, it’s in its element. Any magic she had cast was not going to be up to par with Snowmiser’s, so there’s still a chill nipping at the tips of her pointed ears and her little pale nose that immediately begins to turn red. 

Momentarily, she fell behind as the mini-misers went on, huddling into herself and succumbing to a momentary embarrassment. But! From the satchel hanging at her side, she does retrieve a very small fire opal ring and slides it on … and immediately finds some relief. She shakes her head and shoulders a little, muttering apologies to the mini-misers before following them along in tow! And she just.. looks around the palace ; curiosity flourishing right into childlike wonderment sparking as little stars in half-lidded eyes now widening to full width. 

It’s so pretty. When ice is in a collective like this, it really emits its subtle, gorgeous color of blue and white .. the icicles hanging from above! And — machines? 

Her ears lower. Now, what are those? There’s such a collective ..

“Is that a visitor I hear?”

And her ears perk again, standing straight like antennas the moment she notices Snowmiser. 

Her hair fluffs … ! Her crystal beams a bright, icy green .. ! 

A reaction that only those lovable Holiday legends can inspire. Her chest momentarily puffs with a held breath, and her heart starts skipping a quicker beat.

— Starstruck!!! ✧

Bella meekishly sinks into her cloak, burying beneath her hood. 

words.

words would be good.

“hello.” 

more words?

“.. it’s an honor to meet you. are you really snowmiser? I mean, of course you are, I — ugh, I’m sorry.” Sinking further. “I can’t .. seem to formulate myself … I’m so sorry .. It’s just so amazing to meet you —”

not at all answering his questions, but it’s mowing over into a fan gush. A timid one, but none the less! Give her juuuuuust a moment to reboot. 

....Oh! Isn’t that adorable? It’s been quite awhile since someone was so excited to meet him. How good it is to have a mortal-wait.... No.

This one isn’t a mortal....

The Snowmiser watches Isabella in silence for a moment, trying to assess and identify. Frankly he isn’t too involved in these sort of matters. His interest is in the cold, the ice, the snow, the weather.. He doesn’t always pay much attention to all the various residents of the planet, so he can’t always identify everyone flawlessly... He can now see she has the markings of a vampire, but.... Something is different. He did for a moment think she was human....

Ah, well. Not his concern. Point is, it is simply adorable to have someone who seems to admire and respect him! It doesn’t happen often, especially among human beings. Those humans so easily forget how important and necessary he is.

“Aren’t you cute, you little sweetheart. What’s your name? Can you tell the old Snowmiser your name?”

“Honey please, it’s always under 40 degrees whenever you’re around.” Yes, that is fire. That is burning hot blue fire burning on his head. It’s practically a stop sign, and yet.. “How ya doing, babe? Haven’t seen that beautiful face of yours for a whole year!”

Complimenting the Snow Miser’s face means little to him. If Hades wanted to give him a meaningful compliment, he would say something about the Snow Miser’s work.

“I’m fabulous! It’s one of my favorite times of year! Winter is coming in the Northern hemisphere! I just hit the Midwest in the United States with a grand blizzard!” He cackles, absolutely delighted with himself.

“Of course you’ve got all the whiners and the complainers. Oh no, my flight’s delayed, oh no, I can’t drive my car, I have to shovel my driveway! So inconvenient! How can we be having snow when it isn’t even December yet? Most of them only want snow one day a year, Christmas Day, and then poof! No more of that!”

Touching the Snow Miser isn’t advised. He is uncomfortably cold at best and could freeze a mortal to death at worst.

Generally physical touch works best if it’s not direct. Like.. touch him while you’re wearing gloves and you should be perfectly fine. But of course that’s only if he’s receptive to it. If he wanted to he could easily transform anything into snow or ice, rendering protection useless.

The following aren’t really rules, it’s just information about how this blog will be run.

Shy Mun Note

I am warning you that I am a very shy person out of character. I might not always want to speak or reply to things. It’s nothing against you, I’m just very nervous. Too much talking will scare me out of my own account! I can also be very forgetful about replying to things.

Blog Content Warning

I’m not sure that there will be any consistent dark themes with this character, but I am someone who likes to write dark or adult themes. If it bothers you that I would do that stuff using a character who appears in a children’s Christmas Special this isn’t the blog for you. I can RP some pretty intense stuff sometimes. This is a warning!

I don’t consistently tag triggers. I’ve learned through previous experiences that I am very forgetful with tagging and my forgetfulness causes people problems. If you have any serious trigger it’s better for you to stay safe and not follow. I try not to follow anyone who requests triggers being tagged in their rules because I know I will probably forget.

No Drama

I don’t like Tumblr drama. I will unfollow if someone posts too many call-out posts and stuff like that. None of that is what I’m here for. I’m here to RP. I’m not keeping track of people who do bad stuff and I don’t have any interest in keeping up with those things. I will write with people who’s viewpoints and opinions I don’t agree with. The beliefs of the people I rp with do not reflect my own.

No Shipping

I am absolutely not interested in doing any romance related at this time.

Following/Unfollowing

If I’m following you then that means I think you’re neat and I do have interest in rping with you. Anyone I’m following is always welcome to make a random starter for me or appear in my ask box or anything.

I will RP with people I don’t follow, but I also won’t RP with any and everyone. Not RPing with someone doesn’t mean I dislike them. Some people my writing style doesn’t mesh with well and it frustrates me because sometimes there are people I do genuinely want to RP with but I just never seem to be able to come up with good replies for them.

If I unfollow someone that doesn’t mean I dislike them. I unfollow for all kinds of silly reasons. For example, I can be highly anxcious and sometimes my anxiety gets set off over dumb things, so I have to unfollow for my own sake.

Extra Stuff

My intent is for this blog to be kind of casual and my activity will likely be very inconsistent. Sometimes I’ll reply a bunch and really fast, sometimes I’ll be quiet for days. Sometimes I will only be replying to certain threads, this doesn’t mean I’m ignoring you or I dislike you. There are a lot of reasons I have an easier time writing the threads I’m replying to (like I know the person I’m writing with really well or I have a lot of muse for the rp etc) I will sometimes drop threads because I’ve lost interest. You can always just start another one! Sometimes I do just lose track of threads too. I’m forgetful and disorganized. If this bothers you a lot then I’m not the blog for you.

Mun and muse are not same. I don’t agree with everything the Snow Miser says and thinks. We’re both very different from each other.

Bonus Info

Now here’s a section I’m adding because it seems like these things kind of stress people out sometimes and I want you to understand you don’t need to be worried about this.

THESE THINGS DO NOT BOTHER ME EVEN SLIGHTLY:

Late or slow RP replies

Extremely short replies. If you give me one sentence after I wrote you multiple paragraphs then it’s ok! I know I get wordy sometimes. You never have to match me!

Threads with no icons. Heck I love not having to stress about icons I love no icon threads.

People dropping threads and starting new ones. You don’t need to tell me if you dropped a thread.

Less than ideal spelling or grammar. Just as long as I understand it’s cool.
