kingdomcomes | A Little Winter Atmosphere

[Winter arrives slower than usual, thanks to the Snow Queen's mid-year horny spell giving her a bit more time before her libido kicked back in. But now she is returning to the fullness of need. And that's where winter comes from.]

[This time, the Kingdom is better prepared to engage in the usual yearly orgasm denial of a goddess. Winter clothes are easier to come by, and every public hearth has some hot something-or-other simmering away. There's a coziness and comfort as farmers retire for the winter, and herds provided all the oats and meal they need, but that doesn't stop them from rooting through the snow for withering crispy treats.]

[Not that Guards are allowed to actually wear clothes or take full advantage of that cozy warmth, heavens no. Not everything is about sex even under the Mistress' reign. Sometimes, it is about Control. She figures everyone should suffer some nipple chafing and shrinkage as a character building exercise, so they get to have some extra shifts outside.]

[The native guards will take to using the snow to prank the Apprentices in as many ways as they can dream up: anything from convoluted plans to hide extremely fresh soft snow in your entire wardrobe, to the more direct approach of "one gets you in a lock while the other dumps snow down the back of your clothes." The off-worlder guards are encouraged to join in the bullying, at least in passing. They won't actually be targeted with snow, though. Call it a token of respect, perhaps.]

[Hey Outliers, having fun out there in the snow being poor? Haha, suckers. But hey, maybe you can make some money running errands, or performing services out in the cold? Or even... "services." At least you probably won't freeze to death. The townsfolk will generally keep an eye on you, unless you're an unpleasant jerk. Then have fun being dead, nerd.]

[Maybe he's doing it to fit in with his new fellows, maybe he's doing it for the goofs. Either way he's joining in on the bullying by shoving snow down the shirts and pants of as many apprentices he can get his grubby hands on. He takes his cue from his fellow guards and doesn't target the off-worlder guards like himself but that doesn't stop him from teasing and jeering at those who refuse to join in on the goofs. In fact, he's not above throwing a snowball or two at those few guards who would respectfully leave the Apprentices all.

Either way, lookout world, Cain is ready to prank some nerds.]

[Éowyn is the sort of person who's taking it as a point of pride not to complain about the cold. Unfortunately, that kind of bravado leads to taking on extra shifts when people challenge her to, and she's spending all her working day outside.]

[She can't feel her toes.]

[Seriously, it's no colder than Rohan in the depth of winter, but the difference is that in Rohan she doesn't have to stand around in what's basically lingerie, with no gloves and boots made more for strutting in than for keeping warm. The cloak gives some relief, but it's only thin fabric, and not big enough to wrap herself in properly.]

[She's stubbornly keeping up her shifts, and stepping in to interfere with anyone pranking anyone else. Most of the rest of the time, she can be found pacing the castle walls. Keep moving, keep warm. Stands to reason.]

[Although the purpling bruises on her thighs and ass suggest she's fallen down more than once, because with snow comes ice, and again, these boots are not meant for winter wear.]

[Please don't comment if you see her fall over. It's hard to balance on ice with high heels and numb legs.]
