Warp forward a few months... and we find Snow falling on Fort, ledges covered
 in snow and in some places ice, icicles hanging from ledge edges and weyr
 openings. Trees and ground covered in a nice white blanket, and that lovely
 snowy haze hanging in the air. It's Nearly turns end time, and oddly enough
 R'ish is getting rather into the feel of the celebrations... And having
 swiped some food and an eggnog like substance from the Kitchens.. has it all
 spread out on the table in her weyr as she decorates the weyr. Whistling
 softly as she  hangs a string of branches along the wall.. affixing glows to
 it in random places. Whee!

One would think that Klari would have gotten the hang of walking on
 ice-slicked surfaces at some point in her life by now. But her excitement
 sometimes still gets the best of her. Out on the ledge as she jumps down from
 Daemith's neck, her feet instantly go out from under her. Splat! Klari /was/
 carrying goodies.. but her fall was startling enough to her that the goodies
 were thrown and manage to slide right off the ledge. Having missed that part,
 Klari slips and skids around trying to find them. Daemith? He saw it /all./
 The ole' blue sits as he stares over the ledge. Darn.

The next one to arrive and possibly add to the calamity of the moment would be
 Elsveth and her companion Madri. Likewise carrying bundles of goodies and an
 air of frivolity this one-time High Reaches native finds easy to navigate and
 thusly offers a helping hand to Klari. Elsveth? She'll mirror the Daemith in
 glancing over the ledge just because whatver he's doing looks interesting.
 "Hello? Hello?" Madri calls out, in merry tune as Klari is offered a
 mischevious glance. "Gotta watch ice, has a life all it's own really."

OOC: R'ish says "The dragons are all like... "Bet it hits that ledge down
 there.."  "Naw.. Bet it lands on someones head!""

R'ish pauses in her glow affixing as Klari lands... and then... lands again.
 Eyes getting wide as the bluerider falls  and the goodies go skidding. Trying
 to get down from her ladder as quickly as possible, she ends up getting a
 foot tangled between  the bottom rungs.. and has a bit of a fight with it
 before she manages to get to the ledge... Just after Madri. "Hey!" She greets
 cheefully, glancing down to Klari, who Madri's offering to help up. "You
 okay?" Once finding out that Klari is indeed alright she gives her head a
 little shake and a laugh. "gotta watch the ice." R'ish just chalks it up to
 the woman having lived in Ista for so long. Never mind by now she's been at
 fort for a great number of turns.  Like the dragons though.. R'ish edges her
 way over to the side and peeeeeeeers over. "Least it was only the goodies
 that went over the edge?" heh.

Klari's too busy at first checking Madri out, a little on the obvious side
 with that smirk Klari gets on her face. But then the bluerider takes the
 offered hand. For a moment, her feet skid quickly in place as she puts forth
 quite an effort to get up when finally she gets it. Daemith rumbles a few
 quick times as he stares over the ledge, must've hit /something./ "Thanks.
 Tell me about it." Said to both women as they warn her of the ice and its
 intentions. Blue eyes shift to R'ish as Klari can't help but laugh, "Yeah but
 they were good ones, Ri. Daemith said he could have caught them but it
 wouldn't have been as much fun."

Madri will likewise check out Klari, thought probably not in quite the same
 fashion as she's getting in return. One quirked eyebrow is quickly given
 before the greenrider hefts her own parcels off Elsveth and heads on in.
 Evidently she's accustomed to just wandering about this weyr and dropping of
 items as she pleases. Once deposited she'll saunter on back, adjusting the
 hat that adorns her head to a more secured, if angled position. It's a prized
 hat, one that evidently has three owners depending on who's walked off with
 it for the moment. She too will peer down over the ledge, "Oh? What kind of
 good area we talking about?" Was that a far and distant yelp from down below?

Should the owner of that Yalp look up up up way up.. they'll see two dragons
 and two.. (three?) women peeeeering over that ledge. R'ish offers a wave, if
 they can see it or not.. and cups her hands around her mouth to give a shout.
 "HAPPY TURNS EEENNND.." Though.. oddly enough.. the shout and the echo.. and
 it could be the dragons peering over and making vibrations that knock a few
 icicles off the ledge.. down down down... "WATCH OUUUUT!" She winces slightly
 and ducks back fully onto the ledge to look between Klari, Madri and Daemith
 and Elsveth..  Maialeth is off.. likely trying yet again to master the frozen
 lake. It's been a battle almost every turn. He's not very good on large
 patches of ice either... especially when he wants to swim. "Were they?" R'ish
 asks about the goodies.. She'll roll her eyes at Daemith and shakes a finger
 at him. "If you'd caught them.. we could've actually aimed them!"

Klari had made an attempt to get closer to see where it might land herself but
 didn't get far at all before the ice attacked her feet again. This time the
 bluerider does a quick spin and in trying to straighten her feet back out..
 Splat! Back on her rear. Slid back a little ways, even. Daemith huffs out a
 bit of warm air in R'ish's direction. The blue gives a simple twitch of his
 tail.. "Ooof!" And sends Klari sliding from where she was sitting, /almost/
 to where she would need to be just to go inside. Even though it was a pretty
 good slide, the woman can't help but turn a nice shade of pink from all the
 trouble she's having.

Bluerider antics draw a bemused glance from Madri, though it is not without
 sympathy either. R'ish is next to get a glance and finger point in Klari's
 direction. "Think we should go give her a hand?" Elsveth has opted to just
 settle herself where she is and continue to glance down over the ledge. If
 there's an icicle or two within her reach, it might just be that a wayward
 talon chips away at it, setting it free. "I brought drinks!" Madri chirps up,
 "And more decorations, and... a list." To the last she'll just blink.
 Innocently.

R'ish blinks at Daemith and Klari.. and tilts her head. "Thanks..." She says
 with a little laugh and a smirk at the blue... though she will nod over at
 MAdri. "YEahh.. Maybe we should.. before she breaks that lovely neck of
 hers..." She offers Klari a cheeky grin as she takes a few careful steps
 towards her and offers a hand out. "She's already bruised her ass up
 enough.." Loving smile. She only teases becuase she cares... "Ooh! Drinks and
 decorations.. Come on.. You can finish decorating the weyr...." Cough.. "er..
 help... finish.. " yeah that's it!  PAuse.. " a list?"

See the things is though, Klari probably will wind up with a bruised ass. She
 sticks her tongue out at R'ish with a grin before taking the brownrider's
 hand. This time Klari adjusts her feet a few moments before even attempting
 to get up. It helped. A little. "I still can't believe you're decorating..
 Celebrating doesn't surprise me." Just the decorating. Finally up off of the
 ice, Klari does her best to carefully step inside and away from the slippery
 stuff.

Madri throws her hands out in a playful gesture, "Ah but decorating can be a
 part of the celebrating!" It's all just a matter of perspective, see? She'll
 riffle through her bags and begin tossing various frilly, sparkly or
 otherwise festive items at the pair. Who said anything about decorating the
 walls? An exagerated glance and sigh, "Just keep anything about her ass to
 yourself R'ish." TMI! But wine and another more odd shaped bottle is waggled
 for others to see. "Wine or /spiced/ rum?" What better way to ward off winter
 chills than with the right type of drink?

R'ish wrinkles her nose up at Klari.. "Don't stick it ou..." Pause.. Oh..
 Right.. Company! R'ish  darts a mischevious glance back over at Madri as she
 helps Klari get back into the weyr. "What's so hard to believe about me
 decorating eh?" Aside from the fact that too much clutter often sends R'ish
 into a cleaning frenzy? Though then Madri's tossing frills and sparkles about
 and R'ish's eyes widen as she's suddenly.. attacked by them... SHE HAS
 FRILLS.. she looks rather horrified by the idea.. and starts trying to pick
 the frills and sparkles off of her. "It's a nice ass!" She comments idly at
 Madri... "And she fell on it. Thus bruised." Getting a strand of the frilly
 things off of her she moves to drape it over Klari. "There's nog on the
 table.. you can put some of the rum in that!"

"Because you never decorated?" Klari then can't help but let laughter take
 over. "But the frilly sparkly things looked good on you!" And then they're
 all on Klari who starts to examine the pieces, likely judging where they
 would work best on the body. Twisting slightly, she looks behind herself and
 then to the other 'riders, "What's wrong with my ass?" Yes. Klari looks
 /actually/ worried now.

"Oh! Nothing's wrong!" *Toss* "I just happen to like someone /elses/ ass."
 Madri pauses long enough in her decore rummaging to glance towards Klari
 first with an impish grin, then lock her gaze on R'ish. "Unless you want me
 go on about N'tan's ass?" She could! At length no less.... Again more frilly
 bits are tossed /at/ the others to the point it could even be called
 deliberate. See, Madri agrees with Klari on that point, "She's right R'ish...
 and imagine the surprised looks on folks when they see you!" She's evidently
 searching for something and anything else said falls to the level of mutters
 and grumbles.

R'ish scrunches up her face and bats at the frills coming her way.  What's
 wrong with Klari's ass? "It's covered." R'ish lets slip out before she
 snatches a bit of the frill out of the air and wraps it about her head like a
 bonnet. "YEah? You think it looks good?" She snorts softly... Though there's
 a icky look from R'ish. "Please..... Don't." Ugh.. N'tan... last thing she
 wants to think about is N'tan's ass.. "You said something about a list?"

"Oh they'd have some pretty surprised looks, alright. If they even recognized
 R'ish." Klari couldn't help it, especially after the brownrider makes one
 piece into a bonnet. Klari shakes her head as she laughs, "I dare you to go
 out like that for a day." As for the pieces being thrown at Klari, she's
 started making them into wraps and such around herself. Almost got enough to
 be a dress. Well.. What Klari would consider a 'dress.'

Madri just... rolls her eyes. "No offense," is grinned towards Klari. "I am
 sure, knowing R'ish's taste, you've got quite the fine ass." In the
 never-ending bag of goodies Madri keeps searching and nods, "Yep, a list."
 She draws out the answer more because she's puzzled as to where it went, "You
 know, for all those folks who should get a gift, who shouldn't and ... /or/
 what they should get." If she's meaning the whole weyr, that could be one
 large list.... "They'd probably accuse her of being proddy, if she didn't
 ride brown." The offered with a wink towards Klari.

R'ish wrinkles her nose up at Klari. "No... Not unless you walk about the weyr
 totally naked for a day."  OF course Klari might just take that deal... but
 hey.. if she does.. R'ish'll wear the bonnet for a day.. Even as she tosses
 out a bit of frill to try and wrap it around Klari and pull her  closer. "It
 is!" She'll assure Madri, beaming. "Ohhh one of /those/ lists.." Pause..
 "N'tan better be on the bad list.."

Klari grins a little playfully at Madri, "No offense taken." Laughter catches
 her again as R'ish continues defending her ass, looping her in closer with
 the frilly stuff. Klari begins to nod her head at Madri about the proddy bit
 but the deal R'ish offers pulls her attention. "Deal. I'll walk around the
 weyr naked for a day if you wear a bonnet and frills in public for a day."
 She even sticks out her hand to shake on it.

There's an exclamation as Madri does indeed find what she's looking for and
 quite literally unrolls it to quite an impressive length across the weyr
 floor. Evidently someone's been busy! Though all this talk of walking around
 naked prompts a sigh and shake of her head, "You know... I could leave if I
 am interrupting something?" Smirk. "Oh he's definitely bad..." In a good way!
 Madri wiggles her eyebrows to emphasize the point before turning back to
 Klari. "Want me to play witness to this?" Err, the /deal/. Not the actual end
 result!

R'ish /eyes/ Klari. "By weyr... I mean the entire weyr.. not just.. here..."
 R'ish Clarifies.. just to be sure Klari's understood her correctly... and
 agreed to that?  R'ish's eyes are rather wide at the moment. She glances over
 at Madri and arches her eyebrows. Oh... "Well.. If you want, I suppose you
 could witness it."

Klari watches the list roll out and gapes. "Wow. That's actually pretty
 impressive." Klari could relate the length of that list to other lists that
 involve names but she just lets out a single, evil laugh. Then she points to
 Madri, "Yes. You heard her, she agreed to it!" As for understanding, the
 bluerider nods her head again, "I know what you meant. No skimping out on
 your end of the deal either.. And I get to pick out what you wear." This..
 Should be /great,/ Klari thinks. R'ish girly is /way/ better than herself
 being naked.. right?

Right! "Witnessed!" Madri spurts out and beams. "Now if you two lovers will
 excuse me, all this talk of nakedness has me... thinking." Ahem! She'll
 wiggle her fingers towards R'ish and Klari, perma-smirk in full effect and
 saunter her way on out towards the awaiting Elsveth. "I'd better go check on
 N'tan." And his ass. "You know, in case he's being bad." A laugh and she's
 off, even opting to leave behind both rum and wine. "Night ladies!"

R'ish arches an eyebrow at Klari. "Oi! No changing the deal after it's been
 agreed to!  I just said I'd wear the frills as a bonnet.. Nothing about you
 choosing what else I wear! I agreed to wear the bonnet!" Though she smirks.
 Heh.. Klari walking around in public without clothes.. for some reason just..
 amuses R'ish. She Gives Klari a little pinch. "The bonnet for your nakedness!
 That was the deal." And she glances at Madri. "Wasn't it?" Of course it was!

Klari starts shaking her head at R'ish, "No, no, no. I agreed to go naked with
 you in frills /and/ a bonnet. So I pick or no deal." She shrugs her shoulders
 before waving toward Madri, "Night." A gaze back to R'ish before finally
 pinching the brownrider back. Serves her right!
