Tao hummed under his breath as he put the finishing touches to his 'snowman' in Boss' back garden. He patted down a couple of areas that didn't look as secure, but it was looking close to what he wanted it to be.
"Tao," he heard M-21 ask, puzzlement in his voice, "what are you doing?"
"Making a snowman!" he said, wiping his gloves free of snow. Wasn't it obvious? "You never seen one before?"
M-21 snorted, his breath freezing in front of him, raising an eyebrow. "Yeah." M-21 studied his snowman, shaking his head. "I've just never seen one with tentacles before."
"Then you've obviously never seen any of the good ones!" Tao said loftily, stepping back to make sure nothing had moved while his attention had been on other things. Three of the tentacles that coiled skyward were okay, but the fourth looked like it needed more support where it connected to the main body before it broke off from its own weight.
He didn't get a response to that, M-21 crunching away to where Tao had last seen Takeo.
He could hear Regis and Seira talking with them, Takeo and M-21 asking questions; he didn't pay attention to what they were saying.
Not until something smacked him in the back of the head, and he yelped as something cold slid down his neck.
He whirled around to see the four of them either not looking in his direction, or clearing their throats. Not looking in his direction.
Tao let a grin spread wide across his face. "You do realise that means I'm going to have to retaliate, right?" he said mildly, brushing the snow out his hair.
"Of course," Takeo said, wearing a small smirk.
Ah, so that was who the perpetrator was; he was going to be the first to go down. "There is only going to be one rule," Tao said, already shifting his weight, preparing for the ensuing battle. He saw the others do the same. "No snowballs near Boss' snowman." They had a big enough space to work with, but once the snowball fight was underway, there was a large chance they would mentally tag snowRai as cover rather than something to be avoided.
Everyone glanced at snowRai and then edged away from it.
"The front garden is free," Seira said, her eyes sliding to the path that would lead them there.
"…Yeah, let's go to the front garden." No point risking even one snowball going astray.

Haha, okay, I guess it was obvious that I'd originally planned for them to knock Rai!snowman's head off, and then panicking and flailing ensue, but I felt that was too close to Track and then Seira spoke up anyway.
…Help. Too much crack. Or too much Tao.
