[Morning Action]
[After this discussion last month about making things out of snow and the perks of doing so, there's the beginnings of a foundation for a snow castle taking shape nearby house 15. It doesn't look like much yet, but it's easy to make out the outer wall and the door of the sculpture if you come over to take a better look.
Around the castle-in-the-making are Rin and Caius (![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
accepted) who are busy packing snow onto the walls to build them up. There's still a lot of work that needs to be done to make it look like anything worthy of being called a castle, but it'll certainly end up looking good if the base of the castle is anything to go off of. Impressive even.]
[Midday Action]
[There's not as much snow around as there was before and the heatwave certainly isn't helping things. Most of the snow around the castle has been scooped up so there's only slush and grass left. At least the castle looks more castle like by this point, now sporting an archway for a door and a few thin windows one the front and back which were probably made by punching the snow out from the wall rather than them being a planned design choice.
Those living near house 15 might find someone walking around their front or back yards, gathering up some snow and carrying it back to the castle. It's just snow so hopefully no one minds sharing a bit of it, rest assured it's going towards something very cool.]
[Afternoon Action]
[Well, it's finished. It took most of the day but there's definitely a snow castle sitting outside house 15 now. There are even battlements running along the top of it, though none of them look particularly even. Some of the castle appears brown from where melting snow was packed into the walls which had picked up the color of the ground.
If you pass by you should come take a look at how impressive this thing is. Maybe even admire it or the people who built it, both of whom are walking around the castle to admire it and at times even head inside to look around. It's not as spacious inside as what was planned, so you might need to duck down a little in case you scrape your head and get a head full of snow.
This whole post is a joint thread with Caius and he'll tag it too. This was written with the 9th in mind, so it might be backdated? It doesn't matter much though]
