set for tomorrow because apparently it's supposed to snow??? teekons wtf??

cam was on his belly, examining the slow crawl of a tiny little many-legged creature, when something very cold and wet plopped onto the bridge of his nose.

concerned, he sat up—the crawler picked up the pace in fright—and lifted his head, looking for the offender. this only resulted in yet another assault. . .plop! this time, right into his nostril, slithering down, a very uncomfortable sensation.

the boy let out an explosive sneeze, shaking himself out, shivering all over. his little face clenched like a fist as he rose to his paws and began to walk around in circles, finding that the plops were happening more and more frequently as the minutes went by. one landed on his foreleg, and he stared down at it, focusing on the sight rather than the sensation.

for a moment, it was crystalline white, small and perfect. before he knew it, it was gone, melted into his dark, downy pelt. but then more plops came, looking just like that—and cam wondered whether this was a creature he hadn't yet been acquainted with, yet. something that liked to come down from the sky and play, instead of up from the ground like everyone else.

he yipped, breaking into an ungainly run before tumbling over. plip—plip—plop— it went, frosting over his ebony fur. it was very cold, and it tickled. he giggled without really meaning to, looking around, wondering if anyone else found this situation as interesting as he did.
