Aaaaaa fun MYO challenge! I'm at my limit, though, so I'll just be watching. ;w; Can't wait to see what y'all come up with though!!!
What is your katkin's favorite wintertime activity?
Jayce - Sledding sledding SLEDDING! Any kind of it, so long as it's going as fast as possible! Get ready for chills, thrills, and spills! She's been known to run her Ru-Ru a little ragged through the snowy winters, having him pull her along as fast as he can. Snowball fights are also a fun winter-exclusive time waster. With Jayce, everyone's playing, even if they never agreed to it! So be careful when you see her rushing by on a makeshift sled, you might just get a faceful of snow!
Flora - Quite the opposite, Flora just enjoys holing up inside her home and making hot chocolate. She finds the wintertime a lot less stressful, as she gets fewer customers. She usually takes the down time to organize her work equipment. Flora can get a little stir-crazy, though, because she hates cold and the weather tends to keep her stuck inside her home for long periods of time. It's just too freaking cold. No daily meditation, no errands, no visiting friends, just sitting in front of a fire sipping at warm drinks while waiting for summer to come.
Does your katkin have any winter traditions?
Jayce - Aside from the annual pelt-your-neighbor-with-snowballs month, Jayce has made it a tradition to visit home to talk with her parents and make sure they're doing alright with the cold. She takes up a lot of harder labor that they can't really do anymore due to their age. Over the week she spends with them, a lot of her time is spent chopping wood and mending wear and tear on her childhood home.
Flora - Ah yes, because Flora spends nearly the entire winter in her house, she needs a way to keep herself in good mental health. To do this, she gathers up an array of her favorite books from when she was going through school and reads through them. They're mostly young adult fiction of the adventure/fantasy genre.
What is your katkin's favorite winter beverage?
Jayce - Apple cider, for sure! While she can't necessarily cook, she learned from her mom that the best way to prepare cider is to boil it and add a few cinnamon sticks to it. Let that sit for a little while, and then you've got a deliciously sweet drink to warm your belly.
Flora - Hot chocolate is Flora's favorite. It reminds her of home, when she was very little. She doesn't remember all that much of her childhood, but something about looking out at the snow-covered fields and drinking a toasty hot chocolate with marshmallows...it's nostalgic. She assumes her mother used to make it for her a lot, but even that's unsure. Certain or not, she knows that it makes her feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
