It was a rather clear day out, but she knew that would change in a matter of minutes, the storm was going to be rather light but would last for afew days raining on and off... Several of her acquantinces would get colds save for one which was always cold, but stayed out of the rain to avoid becoming stuck in a block of ice. Ah, well might aswell enjoy it while she can. she lay on her stomach letting the sun fall on her back and warm her skin slightly as she relaxed... Examining some strange cards infront of her with letters like 'win big!, 6.9 million dollar prize' and other such things. She hadn't done anything with them yet although she was not unsure of whether she won or lost. She was expecting someone to interrupt her before she could check though.  |

Speaking of the cold, one who is nearly always cold but definitely doesn't mind the reduced temperature is approaching according to her expectation. He treds lightly with a sort of a reserved sort of grace that finds its beauty in the stillness about the tsume. Where his front claws touch the ground the grass there freezes and breaks in a brittle tinkle that echoes strangely in his silence. He seems to have a purpose in his stride though in reality he's quite lost. Seeing the other tsume he approaches her in hopes of finding his way out of this maze of trees.  |

"Lost again?" She chuckles alittle bit, as if she was the only one that had been let in on a joke... That most likely had to do with the other tsume "I'll give you an answer but you need to think the question through first, Do you want to know which way you will go, which way you should go, or which way you have come?" she says with a slight wave of her hand in his direction, she had barely bothered to look up as he approached, but instead turned one of the small cards over, contemplating scratching off the small bit of foil.
This one had an interesting future... But it would probably not be a very long one.

He stands competely motionless for a moment and then slowly a single eyebrow raises at her. He regards her thoughtfully for a moment and then very deliberately, it seems, opens his mouth to speak.
"I had a desire to know which way I should go but if it differs from which way I will go, then I suppose it doesn't matter, does it?"
His voice is surprisingly warm in relationship to his body temperature which is causing the grass about him to wither. Behind him are his visible tracks as broken white stars in the ground. He waits.

She slowly drags a claw across the shiny surface of the card, revealing some random looking numbers, which if you had known the numbers for the grand prize for that lottery would have seemed rather familiar... However she had no real use for the reward and would most likely not collect upon it.
Looking up and over at him she seems smiles slightly "It matters only if you beleive it does, so I suppose it does not. But you should not go anywhere, But you will go somewhere and you have come from nowhere." she says all this with a unfaultering voice, as if she had rehearsed every word that was spoken. "You have a choice, but if I tell you more you will wonder whether you truly did, or if I manipulated you into doing somehting." ... She's talking like she has already had this conversation with him and is just recapping for his benefit, strange...

He blinks.
Though by his nature he is generally a creature of calm her words fluster him a little. He'd only wanted geographic directions out of the Orchard so that he could return home and perhaps settle down for a nap. He is a simple creature at heart and her words cause him some mild anxiety not for his future but because he simply doesn't wish to follow a conversation of this sort.
"I, I'm afraid I don't understand you. Forgive me, but I simply required a physical direction that would lead me to the exit of this particular Orchard. I'm afraid I've gotten turned around in the most literal sense."
He glances about as if to justify this.

She looks at him then shrugs "The way back to chaos hills is to the north, for those with no other means of travel... But keep in mind I have warned you Yukizora." she sighs and looks down at the rest of her tickets, twitching her tail slightly, the slight movement of it seemed rather unnerving for some reason... But the feeling was definitely one that it being swung in your direction would be very, very bad... Probably because of the way it seemed to cut the light when moved at certain angles...

He raises an eyebrow again at the mention of his name but doesn't move. For a long while he continues sitting, apparently eying her tail which appears to have transfixed him. He stays this way for so long that the grass under his claws grows a layer of frost so that it is no longer visible. Behind him his wings which are equally cold fan slowly and thoughtfully, sending waves of cold about his silvery blue body.
He seems frozen literally and metaphorically. Perhaps he is. However, he soon breaks the silence by speaking once more.
"I think it proper," He tells her quietly, "That if you know my name I should know yours. I won't be able to properly introduce myself otherwise. Though you already appear to know me. No matter, I think it still right to introduce oneself."

She begins to hum some sort of tune to herself while he remained frozen, or transfixed with her bladed tail, stopping when he came out of that trance, Waiting a moment after he finished speaking to reply "Oh, I keep forgetting that this is once again our first meeting... I am Aimser'lan, A pleasure to meet you once again." she says with a small grin.
After that brief introduction she checks her pocket watch that ticks- err well, it doesn't seem to make any noise whatsoever but the hand still moves despite this fact, The watch, despite her appearance did not seem very fancy and seemed to be more there for keeping track of time than looks.
"You may introduce yourself once more if you wish." she says as she looked back to him.

"We've met before, Aimserl'an. Good day, I am Yukizora." He says this as a statement and not as a question. He has no idea what is going on but something about the other's general poise and character leads him to believe her without question. Well, without much question.
"Excuse me, but ....we've met before?" A moment of disbelief escapes from his mouth in a quiet murmur. He looks at her, curiosity and apprehension flickering alternately across his solemn blue face. A slight breeze picks its way through the spikes on the back of his neck which rattle gently together as if they are made of ice. Perhaps they are.
"I do not understand...." His eyes dart to the clock. Something sparks in their depths. From the look on his face he doesn't seem to like the vague ideas that are beginning to form in his mind.

She gives him the courtesy of a small nod/bow when he introduces himself, then she pauses as she tries to remember when they last met, a smirk appearing at his bafflement... Surely something as amazing and powerful as her self would be immediatly recognized? ah, maybe not... "We last met tommorrow, in chaos hills." she says hoping it may clarify things alittle bit, although she knew he would not remember seeing as it had not happened yet, and indeed would never happen since things had been changed so much.
She shivers slightly when the breeze blows over him, carrying the chilled over her, then she rose to a more upright sitting position than before letting out a small sigh directed at nothing in particular "It is a nice day to become lost is it not?"

"It seems," He tells her with slight bewilderment, "That your idea of chronology and my idea of it are much different for if your word for tomorrow and my word for tomorrow mean the same thing, I do not see how this is possible." He stares at the ground for a moment as if gathering his thoughts and then sighs and shakes his head in defeat as if to concede that it is all too much for him to think about.
He is silent and then he shrugs. "Well, how do you do then?" It appears he's stopped even trying to question the strange happenings of this day.
"It is a fair enough day," He remarks, looking to the sky and then about him. "Though I prefer it colder."
The ground under him sparkles like diamonds.
(Sorry about how long the reply took. I managed to get a computer virus on Thursday and I only just got my computer up and running again.)

She shook her head and laughed again, these tsumes were always so silly... He probably had no idea what was going to happen next... "That is just because you are looking at it wrong. " she states rather harshly, glaring at the frozen ground around the other as she spoke.
"I feel sorry for that gopher," she pauses then looks back over at him "It did not expect such a harsh snow..." she says with another one of her laughs, She still seems amused by the other for reasons unknown. "It is hard for me to keep track of time here, so easy to get distracted, so please excuse me if I do not make sense."
It's too bad he falls in that lake

He peers down quickly and shifts a little. "It can't be helped. My existence means such things happen and I prefer to exist," he remarks mildly. Still, he moves a little to his left and settles down again with a slight crunch of frozen crash and tinkle of icy spines. A light dusting of snow rises off of his wings in a flurry as he moves.
He sighs and shakes his head a little. "What brings you to this Orchard?" He asks after a lengthy silence has stretched itself between them.

"Many of your kind can hold the cold inside." she says in a distant tone as he attention seems drawn off to some invisible object that judging by her gaze moved somewhere behind his head, the un-attentive look snapping back when he spoke again.
"What brings me here? What would keep me away? I don't know." she says with a shrug, although she did know why she was here and every second that passed was one second more that her long and complicated plans were being carried out... Even if this part seemed rather boring in comparison to what was to come in some minutes.
