[Okay, as if suddenly showing up in an unfamiliar place that definitely wasn’t Vale wasn’t bad enough, there was a blizzard. It is made even worse by the fact that what he was wearing? Wasn’t something suited at all for this sort of weather. He’s pretty much discarded the pamphlet (but kept the money) he doubted it would have told him anything like “Blizzard ahead”.

He’s has to duck into the first building that he can reach, because its freaking cold out there for someone in a simple white shirt and a pair of pants. It is after that that he switches his communicator on to talk, his teeth are chattering and he hasn’t exactly warmed up yet.]

F-Funny. I-Instead of l-leaving me these little trinkets, w-whoever is responsible f-for me being here could have left a coat instead. [Because seriously, he feels like he is about to freeze his tail off.]

[Yang tilts her head when she first gets the message and views it. Then she realizes just who showed up, and ohhh how she grins. Someone's going to be happy to see him~ With a secretive and coy glance at Blake, Yang picks up her radio and heads into the hall, shutting the door to their apartment behind them. Once she's in the stairwell, she gets in contact.]

Hey Sun! You just arrived, huh? Wanna come over?

[Video]

[monkeystowaway]

Huh? Aren't you.. [She was Blake's friend. Yang, right? Kind of hard to forget someone like her. And he really shouldn't have been surprised that she was here. He couldn't have been the only person picked up in Vale.]

Nice to see you again, Blondie. Yeah, I'm not gonna turn it down. Especially if it is a warm place. [He'd need to find some place to stay for the night to avoid the cold, but he could worry about that later.

[Video]

[solar_flare]

It's pretty cozy, since we're all bunking up together in the ol' Yangcave.

[She's totally going to call it that now. Until someone tells her not to.]

Ruby's here too, and so is Blaaaaake~

[She'll have to let him know in a little sing-song voice. She's already jogging down the stairs since she doesn't trust the elevator in this kind of weather.]

Which building are you in right now?

[Video]

[monkeystowaway]

[Who would? Yangcave rolls right off the tongue.]

I'm guessing the ice Princess isn't here with you all, then? [Since he noticed a distinct lack of her name and all.]

One of the stores nearby the place I arrived. [He didn't get a look at the name or track how far it was away from the place. Though, he uses his communicator to show her the interior of the store.]

Know this place?

[Video]

[solar_flare]

Yeah, no sign of her yet.

[Weiss isn't the easiest to get along with, but the team still doesn't feel complete without her. She examines Sun's video feed thoughtfully.]

Hmmmm...

Oh! Hey, I think you're at the pizzeria! Wonder if they're open...?

[A pizza party doesn't sound half bad right about now, even if the pizzas might be frozen by the time she gets back.]

You're only about five blocks from our apartment building too, so this won't take long. Sit tight!

[Video]

[monkeystowaway]

I've got no clue. If they aren't, I'll buy you a pizza the next time that they are open. [Since he's gonna owe her after doing this.]

Don't worry, I'm not going anywhere.

[Video]

[solar_flare]

Aw, that's sweet! You don't have to do that, though, seriously. Just glad to help out!

[Especially for Blake, ho ho ho. She bundles up and grabs an extra blanket, just in case. She doubts any of her clothes would fit him, even if she is fairly tall. She gives him a two-fingered salute, and a wink, then heads out to go interrupt a moment.]

[Video]

[monkeystowaway]

Oh? Well that's just more pizza for me. See you when you get here.

[Video]

[onlybuildsawesome]

They left you cold hard cash, boy. Why don't you use that to go buy a jacket?

You shouldn't need a genius like myself to spell it out for you.

[Video]

[monkeystowaway]

They could have left me all the money in this place, but I still would have to go out into a blizzard to get one. [Not to mention he knows nothing about the layout of this place.]

[Video]

[onlybuildsawesome]

Edison's eyebrows, this is why I hate dealing with children...

A march through the snow might do you some good, it builds character.

[Video]

[monkeystowaway]

A march through the snow could cost me some appendages to frostbite. I'm not in need of that kind of character, Gramps. [He needs all of his appendages for pilfering anyway.]

[Video]

[onlybuildsawesome]

Hmph. Kids these days. Too lazy to rise up to the simplest of challenges, back in my day...

[Wily will step away from the phone for a couple seconds. He'll return with a map of Genessia that's been marked with a sharpy.]

Listen you little brat, I've made this so simple that even you should be able to understand it.

[He'll point to one circle drawn on the map.]

This is where you are now.

[His finger will move along a line drawn on the map toward another circle.]

And this is where you can purchase a jacket.

If you actually put some hustle into it, you should be able to get there before you get a widdle bit of frostbite. Think you can manage that?

[Video]

[monkeystowaway]

[Sun studies the map as it is shown. At least he had a somewhat better idle of the scale of this place now.]

And here I thought you wouldn't be helpful at all, Gramps. I've got a friend braving the blizzard for me, if they don't bring one with them, I'll head over to that store and grab one.

[Video]

[onlybuildsawesome]

Hmph. That was hardly helping, I was simply pointing out the obvious.

[descendsfromshadow]

[Blake's a little behind on this one, seeing as she's spending the blizzard wrapped up in her latest book. She finally puts it down and looks up, blinking to see that Yang's vanished.

Huh. That's unusual... it's not like her to sneak out.]

[She reaches down for her phone to get in touch with her impromptu roommate when she notices the new video and her eyes widen a little bit before she brings up her own video.]

Sun?

[And it's FREEZING out there. She's on her feet quick.]

Where are you? I'll bring you a coat.

[Not from the apartment, of course, she's fairly sure she can borrow Jaune's or something.]

[monkeystowaway]

[It's freezing, but he does feel a bit warmer seeing such a familiar face on the screen.]

Hey there, Blake. Uh..I don't know exactly. Somewhere near the place that I arrived. Your friend Yang is coming by to pick me up. [He doesn't know how close Yang is to him now, but a coat would be nice. But getting to an actual warmer place would be even better.]

[descendsfromshadow]

Hi..

[Well, this is... unexpected. Not unwelcome, but unexpected. And so that's where Yang disappeared to. What is she up to?]

Then you can't be too far. Show me.

[Because she's not sure how Yang is going to pick him up. It isn't like she has a car or anything.]

[monkeystowaway]

[Sun has no idea either. He doesn't know Yang nearly well enough to predict where her antics might lead. He uses the communicator to show the interior of the store that he is in.]

[descendsfromshadow]

[Blake watches the video feed pan around, nodding after a moment.]

I know where that is.

[Still... if Yang's already on her way, there probably isn't any need for her to go as well. Maybe it would be better to wait here....

Oh, to heck with it.]

I'll try to find a coat and bring it to you. Just in case Yang didn't think of it.

[monkeystowaway]

[Sun knows he should probably tell her not to come and to stay in and out of the blizzard but..he didn't think she was likely to listen to him anyway if she did.]

If you are sure. You just grab one for yourself as well if you really want to come out into the mess for me.

[descendsfromshadow]

Don't worry. After seeing the kind of weather this place seems to have, I made sure to get one.

I'll be there soon.

[And a few minutes later, Blake is out in the storm after taking a shortcut over the high ground (because she's not sure what's going on in Yang's head, but she gets the feeling she should do her best to beat her to the punch), and weathering it as best she can. It's still a pretty miserable trip though, even bundled up in her long black coat, scarf and hat. The wind is blowing her hair out behind her, and pelting her with snow and the cold is already starting to cut through her cold weather gear.

So, she's a rather miserable sight by the time she gets to the shop Sun's taken shelter in and shoves her way inside with her arms wrapped around a bundle she'd grabbed from Jaune's apartment, bring along a gust of cold air and snow.]

Sun?

[baconandsnausages]

...You kept all of them, right? Not just the cash and the phone?

[monkeystowaway]

Well, yeah. The only thing I tossed was the pamphlet.

Why?

[baconandsnausages]

[Relief. Not that they'd had anyone toss or leave them yet, but it's always good to check.] Because they're going to be more important than a coat.

...Speaking of which, there's probably something laying around the house you can have for now.
