( CLOSED ) pink puff party vs persistent perfect partison

WHO: Mochi House (Akira Kurusu, Yusuke Kitagawa, Goro Akechi, and Elliot Craig)
WHERE: Magatus
WHEN: backdated to 12/8
WHAT: They went shopping and got teleported by snowflake statues to Magatus. Here, they encounter wintry creatures and the yeti, then have to compete for the best snow~~man~~ sculpture.
WARNINGS: NONE... Will update if anything comes up.

[ They were just on their way to shop for their loved ones, at least the ones that are still in Recolle. While shopping isn't the most exciting thing, going in a big group is, so Akira is rather looking forward to relax after talking to James and cycling through ideas on how to go about investigation.

At least... This was supposed to be a shopping trip. Snowflakes keep spawning on their trip through the mall, eventually blocking their way until they pay them some mind. When they do, in a flash they're taken to a different place. About seven hours away, they're in the familiar Magatus—at least familiar to Akira and Yusuke...

The perpetual northern lights take hold of the sky, but there's something odd about the area. The creatures are out and about like they're in some Christmas movie. As he peeks out of the snow he landed in, he squints at them. ]

... Is that the Coca-Cola polar bear?

[ Akira asks this instead of pointing out the yetis that look at them with such glee. ]

[Ah...... Goro's the only one who hasn't really seen Magatus in its snowy splendor outside of Akira's photography, this place was a desert last he'd seen.

So this is quite the delight. It's easy to put from his mind the conversations this past week, the worry and strain over the past months, with the sight of a snowy wonderland from fairytales. Goro's unlucky enough to have been dumped face first into the snow, but he doesn't bother with the pieces in his hair as he sits up, staring at the sights.]

Do you think the Island of Misfit Toys is on the lake?

[Don't worry, he's already taking out his phone to document the yetis, that's just obvious. Show those nonbelievers.]

[ Yusuke's face is just the face of someone who has been to Magatus once and had a Bad Experience and doesn't want to be here. Combined with a side of "my boyfriend came here once and a tree tried to get him to break up with me" in his eyes as well.

He might be eyeing the snow covered trees with something like annoyance and just a little anger. ]

...

[ Oh right. He's here with other people. ]

Did we just teleport here? It does not take that short an amount of time to get here from Recolle.

[ As if hearing Elliot, the yetis wave at him!!!!!!!!!

Akira follows the direction of Yusuke's gaze, wondering if there's some kind of looming darkness over to the forest nearby. Flashing into the Third Eye doesn't really show anything worth glaring at? But... Maybe his friends is merely thinking on something.

Contemplative is very Yusuke. He follows suit with Goro, taking his phone to take pictures of Magatus' new wildlife. ]

I guess so... [ It's. Weird. ] We can check out the lake, but I'm worried the armed fish might still be in there.

[ Cursed fish. ]

I'll make nabe with them.

[This is the only thing he cares about right now. How to make those fish taste good. Please ignore him.]

H-How about we leave the fish alone? I've had my fill of them...

[Having to kill and cook someone's pet arm fish was the Worst. Rest in peace Mr. Clean]

We should probably focus on all the polar bears and yetis anyway. They haven't attacked, but they clearly want...something...

Yes, the arm fish are... well. I would not like to run into them again.

[ HE'S STILL EYEING THE TREES. FUCK U TREES. ]

I wonder if they speak a common language? We could just ask them, if that were the case.

You wouldn't eat them, anyway.

[ It's not like he's still grudging over having to eat some armed fish!!! Because someone told him he wouldn't!!!!!!

They didn't even have an issue since they were carried by Zoro across the frozen lake, but he agrees with Yusuke. He nods before waving at the Yetis who.

Wave back? And approach them. ]

Who wants to speak to them?

[ Akira would, but he thinks they're all quite eloquent diplomats. Let him pass the torch. ]

[Babe... You could have accepted defeat, it's only because of your pride you didn't. That incident is entirely your own fault. Goro does make a bit of a face at that, a lowkey pouty one, but Akira's probably right.

His own pride, of course, says he definitely would, so expect at least one dinner in the future to include those fuckers.]

Well, I don't have an issue with hairy people, and I do have many questions to ask them... But I'll offer the floor to you two first. I tend to get sidetracked a little when I'm excited after all.

[and he really wants to see elliot or yusuke talk to yetis. the differences in greeting alone would be fascinating.]

What?

[Elliot will IMMEDIATELY shake his head, looking pale at the thought of it]

N-No thanks! P-Predators can smell fear, so sending me would be a bad idea.

[I AM LITERALLY A PILE OF MUSIC PUNS AND ANXIETY OKAY. ]

[ Trees. The worst. ]

If they want something, they can be polite about it. At least they waved back, rather than just turning around and running at us, teeth bared and ready to tear our flesh from our bones.

[ Important note. ]

[ Nice excuse, Goro... Anyway, Akira is here to protect Elliot at all cost, so he isn't going to push him to talk to yetis so fast. Elliot must warm up to them before he would throw him at them.

This means they only have one person to rely on now. ]

Yusuke, you're up.

What.

[ Um? ]

Why me? I am not skilled in the art of conversing. Especially not with yetis.

[ The yetis sure are ambling much closer. If they can look friendly though, then that's how they look. They are friends, or potential friends. ]

Don't be silly, Yusuke, you're perfectly skilled in the art of conversing... And I don't think they'd be men or women of many words, anyway. They may even use pictograph instead of any spoken tongue.

[... Art, they might use art. Goro's moved onto taking pictures of Magatus's snowy fields, though Akira'd better prepare for a sneak attack of cold hands soon.]

Besides, they're creatures of the cold! And who better than the ice-wielding Goemon user himself to speak?

[Thank you Akira, you are a good boy. Elliot will try to be encouraging to Yusuke]

Yeah, and you were really good with those horses we dealt with back in May! They liked you a lot!

[ Akira will not be expecting any attacks cause he's invested in watching Yusuke engage with these yetis. Snow White this shit, bro. ]

To be quite honest, I always considered you eloquent with your words... Less flamboyant and extraneous than Goro, though.

[ Tilting his head, he looks to him. ]

You're more poignant?

If I don't understand them, I don't think whether I am considered eloquent or not will matter...

[ But. Well. Hello. Here are the yetis? So there's no time like the present. ]

... Hello? Did you need something?

[ There's a big ol' uh... exaggerated wave going on there. How do you do. Please don't snap his spine in two. ]

[Behind him, Goro's absolutely sticking his hands under Akira's clothes. Thank you for donating your warmth.]

[Elliot just...take a step away from the handsy Goro. Yeah, you two do your thing he'll just be over here away from PDA.

The yetis seem friendly! Looks like they're trying to encourage them to do some winter games. ]

[ He was going to direct Yusuke in this conversation, but instead he jerks up and shuffles forward fast when cold hands come in contact with his skin.

Sorry, Yusuke, but this means running into you and both of them falling into the Yeti's arms...

Who hugs them very gently. Hello, new friends. ]

[ Oh.

This is where his life has led him. To this moment. Where he is being hugged by a gentle yeti who seems very happy they are here to play winter games. ]

...

... This was not what I expected when I woke up this morning.

[It may not be how Yusuke expected his day, but the yetis are thrilled. Taking no rejection as absolute acceptance of their circumstances, both Akira and Yusuke are being lifted and

taken away, another yeti gesturing to Goro and Elliot to follow. There's plenty of snow and they have some fun ideas for them..!

... Hm. A glance to Elliot, and then Goro's starting after.]

You don't think we'll have to win them back, do you?

[Elliot was about to react to the sudden hugging yetis that took Akira and Yusuke, when suddenly he gets hit by a memory. It's a memory that seems to stun him- for he's unresponsive, with his hand still out as if he's frozen in shock]

Uh....Uh...!

[Was that what he was really like...?]

[ Hm... There's not much he can do here? He's getting suffocated by this yeti's warm embrace, but he isn't going to die yet. For now, he'll just hug Yusuke with the yeti.

Can't beat them, join them... But the yeti seems to be motioning them towards an ice arena? What the hell. ]

We're alive, Elliot.

[ Goro, come here. ]

[ This is... oddly cosy? Terrifying in a way, but very warm and gentle. What even is this. ]

Are you okay, Elliot? You look a little shell-shocked.

[ It's notable, even in this field of ice and potential games and Elliot frozen to the ground and stuttering like someone walked over his grave. ]

[At least his friends calling him snaps him back to reality. He's still a little pale, but he looks over...oh. They're still being hugged, but at least they don't look terrified or anything.]

O-Oh, sorry. Got hit with a memory...but I'm okay.

[not stepping near those yetis though]

....Are they taking you somewhere?
