[mkwnminchan-blog]

Minchan couldn’t help but glare at the person nearing him, it was rather hard for him to trust people he didn’t know yet. Even if she didn’t look like someone who’d talk shit behind his back he had to be wary at least a bit. When she asked him about his bags, he took his time with replying, scanning the girl from head to toe, and when he deemed she looked harmless, he smiled back at the girl. “I would be really grateful if you could help me carrying them upstairs.” He nodded slowly.  

[mkwnrami-blog]

Rami smiled and silently nodded at the stranger she offered her help to, “s-sure!” She doesn’t know where that courage of hers came from, starting from approaching a stranger to agreeing to help him with his bag. For all she knows, he may not be a nice person either. However judging from his appearance, he doesn’t seem like a bad person either which made her agree to help him. “S-So, which room is your room at?” she clarified with him, as she picked up some of his bags. She was grateful that his bag weren’t as heavy as they looked. 

[mkwnchanso-blog]

Reaching into his back pocket he retrieved said pamphlet they were talking about, handing it to Rami with little hesitation. ‘’This is the one here. It just gives a brief overview of the whole place, activites, history, the whole lot.’’ Rami was right, there did seem to be a large amount of people here at the resort, many of them being from the university or high school. One of them being Rami herself. ‘’I get what you mean, maybe we’ll just have to get lucky about that. Hope that people don’t go to the places we want to go.’’ Chanso took a quick look around and the place was already filled with people, they were probably on their way through to reception to go do some skiing or something. The boy took the time himself to observe the sight outside. It really was something to be said, absolutely beautiful it was. Turning back to Rami he gave a small smile, thinking about if she already had some places in mind. ‘’Thinking about doing any skiing while you’re here? Or maybe sledding instead?’’

[mkwnrami-blog]

“O-Oh you had one with you already? Wow, you’re really prepared,” Rami chuckled softly and took the pamphlet from Chanso. She look through it a little and then held it on her other hand, reminding herself to read it later back in her room. Her attention on the scenery outside got drawn back when she heard his voice again. “Well, I’ve rarely tried winter sports and all i’ve done in my life was track and swimming, so i would definitely love to try both of them! Actually, i’ll love to try every single type of activity they offer here! ” she said, with a smile on her face. Sports was her favourite hobby and the only thing that she loves doing so she’ll never up such an opportunity to do so many of them on this trip. She was only allowed to perfect her swimming and track skills all her life so having an opportunity for such winter sports was something she isn’t going to give up on. “What about you? Have you decided where you wish to head to first?” she asked.

Sage was very rarely the mother figure among her friends, despite almost always being one of the oldest. There was an undeniable youthfulness to her, one that often led her to be the one taken care of rather than doing the doting on, but being the oldest one in the room changed the circumstances for the week. When Rami left her room, Sage looked up, greeting the girl with a smile. “Have you eaten yet? I was gonna go to the burger place before meeting up with some of my friends. You can come with me, if you want to.”

[mkwnrami-blog]

Rami was taken aback by surprise, as she stood there still and staring blankly at Sage. When Rami found out she was rooming with 2 other seniors from her school, she was afraid and excited at the same time. She was afraid that they might not like her but everything has been going well so far, and she wasn’t afraid to admit that Sage was one of the many nicer seniors she has met before. She lowered her head and shyly shook her head, indicating a no. “C-Can I really join you for food?” she clarified because she thought she heard it wrongly. a-am i really being invited... she thought. 

[mkwnkatya-blog]

(✾↬;;    “Not at all,” The blonde reassured her with a friendly grin to match. “It’s my first time, as well. And I totally agree. Maps can just confuse you more. We can go by our wits and also explore this place on the way to our rooms.” The idea sounded exciting enough to her adventurous spirit. All she had left in her cup was a sip and she downed it easily enough. Tongue used to swipe across her upper lip for any of the chocolaty residue that ws left behind. “Nah, I’m all set! You caught me just as I was finishing so your timing couldn’t be more perfect.”

[mkwnrami-blog]

Rami grinned excitedly just by the thought of meeting a new friend here at the resort. Never would she thought that she would end up talking to someone new here and having them not reject her like everyone else does in the past. She smiled warmly and held her luggages tightly towards her body. “O-Oh really?” she chuckled softly, “S-So, should we go look for our rooms now?” Rami was too shy to admit but honestly, she was very excited to explore the resort even though she expected to do them by herself. But this time, she finally had company. 

[mkwncho-jihun-deactivated201602]

Jihun was just thinking how the snow was beautiful in its shape but nasty in temperature. He didn’t even bother stoke up to go actual skiing as he knew he’d just rather rest in. The warmth was inviting, it felt good, and whatever it is that seems appealing for those outside– he’ll never understand. 

“Jesus…” He hissed, rubbing his head when he felt the heavy impact of some dumbass’ ski board hitting the back of his head. He turned around with a huge grimace on his face, a threatening glare and a mouth ready to fight the misfit who kept their eyes back home seeing as how they are knocking into people with no remorse. 

The familiar figure shows, the same bowing head, the same sad and nervous look. Jihun stopped for a moment, the grimace disappear left with confusion on his face, making his eyebrows knot. “You’re that klutz from the library…” He said with his finger waving at her up and down her body as if to analyze her. She looked a lot shorter now she was in her ski get-up. “Going out to freeze your ass like the rest of them?” He finally spoke minutes after debating if he should yell at her for pumping into him. Remembering how its just her nature.  He figured if he would, it’ll only make her more of the klutz and sad-looking person she naturally is and although it’ll feel good to make her feel that way, he’d been angry seeing the sights of a crowd that doesn’t belong. No ruler, but he has the money to might as well buy the title. “By all means, go ahead.” He slightly grinned, “It’ll be amusing seeing you ski.”

[mkwnrami-blog]

After finally remembering the encounter they had back in the school library before, Rami’s cheeks immediately turned slightly pink from embarrassment. Luckily, she could use the weather as an excuse for her pink, embarrassed cheeks. She cleared a throat a little and turned her attention back to him. Upon hearing his remarks, she scoffed softly in disbelief. In her mind, all she could think of was a way to get out of this cold as hell place and back to the indoors where there is lesser people and the temperature is more bearable. “If I was going to ski, I wouldn’t be standing here trying to stall as much time as I could so that I won’t have to join those friends of mine,” she uttered softly and let out a loud sigh. She drop all her equipments on to the ground and pulled off her ski goggles for a better comfort. Just as she answered him, she realised that he was just standing there and not skiing, or doing anything at all, for the matter of fact. She looked at him and raised an eyebrow in curiosity, “W-why are you just standing here when you aren’t going to participate either?” 

[94yen]

“So until the next month? It gets colder once the sun goes down, you know.” She’d explained plenty of stupid things to stupid people before, but having to clue someone in on the basics of colder weather definitely took the cake. It wasn’t always the wisest choice to judge a book by its cover, so she had been willing to give the girl the benefit of the doubt and hope that maybe her words would make up for her pathetic appearance, but she was proven wrong. The girl could have all the money in the world, but she didn’t have the guts to survive a week here, let alone a day. If Yenni had a conscience, she’d probably feel a little sorry for her. With a frustrated exhale, she decided to quit her little game and pointed to the sign hanging from the ceiling behind where the girl was seated. “There’s literally directions right there. Vending machine, check in, gym, sundries. At least try looking for yourself before you start bugging someone, alright? Or ask staff or something. I don’t get paid for this shit.”

[mkwnrami-blog]

Rami turned towards the direction the girl was pointing, and saw the exact same direction sign the girl mentioned. Oops... she thought and bit on her lips nervously. It was embarrassing enough that it seems like she had no friends at all when she came in to check in alone, but missing the direction sign and having to ask someone about it when it was right in front of her was worse. She mentally knocked herself on her head for being so dumb and her ability to embarrass herself in less than 15 minutes. She awkwardly turned back to face the girl and sincerely apologized. “I-I’m really sorry, I totally didn’t see that when i came in. I-I should be more observant in the future,” she confessed. She nervously bit on her lips, hoping the other party would forgive her for her obliviousness. 

[mkwncho-jihun-deactivated201602]

“So this is yearly…?” Jihun mumbled to himself, head turning as he looked around, eyes wider than usual thanks to the reading glasses he forgot to take off. He was hogging up the hallway to the hills but he really didn’t care. Nor showed any remorse for those that had to squeeze by to get to the exit for the t-bar and rope lift. Someone eventually pushed him or ran into him, loud noise of their ski equipment either falling from their arms or whatever have it. A startled but still unimpressed grimace shows on Jihun’s face. “Walk around me if you’re so eager to breaking a leg out there…” He hisses at the stranger behind the snowboarder goggles. 

[mkwnrami-blog]

Rami didn’t even know why would she decide to come out of her warm and comfortable room to squeeze with so many people here. She was feeling a little under the weather because of the crowd and the heavy equipments she had to carry. I shouldn’t have joined them, she thought. It was too late to regret anyways. Just as she was trying to get out of the rope lift, someone knocked into her from behind, causing her to not only drop herself but also knocking into someone in at the same time. She got up and apologized to the person she knocked into, “I-I’m so sorry, i didn’t mean too!” When he turned around, she thought he looked kinda familiar.

[mkwnminchan-blog]

Tragic. 

That was the first thought Minchan had upon arriving to the resort. He looked around, checking out people who were already there. What he was expecting was a week, surrounded by his kind of people, helping on fixing his image those stupid ass rumours circulating about him nearly torn apart. But how could it be possible when the place was full with people not that relevant? It will be a much harder work than what he was expecting. With a sigh leaving his lips he looked around, hoping he would find someone that would carry his luggage up to his room, but it didn’t seem like that. “Do I really have to drag my suitcase upstairs?” He mumbled. This wasn’t exactly what he was used to. If there was no one there whose job was to help, then God, he was more than ready to pay for someone doing it for him. 

[mkwnrami-blog]

Rami was on her way back from a short walk around the resort. She has just arrived and thought that maybe she should take a look around her surround first before participating in any of the activities. She told herself to only spend 30 minutes but she ended up getting lost multiple times and only found her way back after an hour and a half. She sighed and was getting ready to head up to her room when she notice a figure at the foot of the stairs. She thought for a while, whether to go up since it seems like he needed some help with his bags. She bit onto her lips nervously and made her way towards the stranger. “H-Hi, do you need some help?” she asked softly with a gentle smile. 

[94yen]

Yenni arched an eyebrow impatiently, tapping her boot against the ground for added pressure as she waited for the girl to actually spit her words out. She got her scared, so easily at that, yet it was still just as amusing as an elaborate plan would’ve been. “Do I look like the kind of person that would lie to you?” she asked, feigning innocence in her voice and facial expression. She was pretty untrustworthy, that much she couldn’t deny, but she did know how to keep people from figuring that out so easily. “The only way you’ll know is if you go find out for yourself, you know.”

[mkwnrami-blog]

Rami didn’t know whether she should trust the girl or not, going out means getting stuck in the cold, which she hates the most, but she really wants to get back to the rooms to unpack. she thought for and moment and attempted to study the other girl’s expression but to no avail. She huffed a little and messed with her hair a little before finally making a decision. “M-Maybe i’ll just sit here and wait till it gets less colder before heading out to try,” she answered softly as she dragged her luggage with her to the couch at the lounge and waited as she played with her fingers. 

[mkwnmingyu-deactivated20160227]

with a comfortable position that he’s gone into on the couch in the lounge, he’s not planning to be disturbed by someone exactly. he had hoped that anyone would realize by the way his attention’s focused more on the phone he grasps between fingers than actual conversation. yet he still gets stopped by someone that he hardly recognizes before realizing she’s the kid that knocked down a whole stack of books and woke him up in the library. and she still has the nerve to attempt a conversation with him. he supposes, she does look a little too star struck to take in the whole of the large area they’re occupying. so he knows that he can either be friendly and answer her question or be his normal, bitter self like their first meeting. his choice is chosen by the fact that he’s not in the best mood after being interrupted, once again, by her while he’s scrolling through his phone. “do i look like a tour guide to you?” he arches an eyebrow, eyes moving from his screen to her. “but since you so nicely asked.. turn around, take a few steps left and ask someone else. good enough?”

[mkwnrami-blog]

She stared at the familiar face with her big doe eyes and thought for a moment, “y-you look familiar. have we met before?” she asked. This is the second time she has met a familiar face and she couldn’t be more glad, but she couldn’t say the same for him. “O-Oh, sorry I didn’t mean it that way but you were the first person I saw here so i just asked,” she rambled. She was curious why he was just sitting in the lounge, not participating or not heading out for the activities but she didn’t ask or maybe she would later. She followed his instructions and tried to look for someone to ask for help but what she has met with was an empty information counter. She huffed and went back to the lounge, “seems like you’re the only person here right now though,” she spoke softly.  

[mkwnchanso-blog]

If there were other people Chanso knew on this trip then it was probably going to be a good time. They were here for about a week as well so they had plenty of time to explore everything this place had to offer. Listening to her talk it was clear that she was slightly more at ease with Chanso than the last time they met in the library. That was a great thing to see and well, hear. It was very cold but Chanso put that down to the snow that covered the area, he had brought enough layers with him to be able to brave the chilliness so he wouldn’t have to worry about that. Chanso hadn’t really had time to look around the resort yet but like Rami, he had done some slight research also. ‘’I’ve done some research myself and there’s obviously the pamphlet at reception, I don’t know if you’ve read that yet. There’s quite a lot of activities that we can do here.’’ There was different sports going on, which was odd since you couldn’t do that many whilst it was full of snow outside.  ‘’It looks like a beautiful place though, I’ve got to admit.’’

[mkwnrami-blog]

Rami felt a lot more comfortable being here after finding out that there was some familiar faces. Previously she was still worried that she may end up spending the entire week alone in the resort. “T-There was a pamphlet? Oh, guess I might have missed it,” she murmured. In her mind she was constantly reminding herself to make a trip to the reception after arriving but apparently that reminder has slipped out of her mind, again. “Hopefully we’ll get to enjoy all the activities here but i highly doubt it looking at the amount of people here at this time,” she chuckled softly and shook her head a little, “but yes, this place is indeed really beautiful. Definitely worth coming again in the future, but alone the next time.” She took a glance at the pure white snow outside and smiled a little to herself. How beautiful.

[mkwnkatya-blog]

(✾↬;;     Bright eyed and bushy tailed, the Japanese blonde was in a serene state. No schedules for a whole week! To make sure she wouldn’t go crazy with boredom, there were a ton of fun activities to boot. A true paradise that she was going to take full advantage of.  As of now, she was enjoying finishing off her mug of cocoa. Letting the liquid warm up her insides as if giving them a hug. “Hm?” The soft voice reminded her of a bird and she wasn’t disappointed to find that the face of it matched the sweet sound. “Oh, the rooms?” Her eyes ventured out and around. Her luggage was still by her feet, she didn’t have a great idea on the matter, herself. “I’m not sure….” she began, pausing to take in her final sip then stand. “Maybe we can go look for them together.”

[mkwnrami-blog]

“Oops sorry, was i interrupting something?” Rami confessed sheepishly after seeing the girl put down an unfinished mug of drink. “This place is pretty huge and it’s my first time here so I don’t really know my way around and i’m pretty bad with directions too,” she mumbled softly, “maps are just a pain in the ass for me.” The purpose of coming for a trip like this was so that Rami could mingle around more with people in her school and maybe at the same time, make a friend or two. Being the introverted person she was, coming up to this trip alone was already a huge feat for her. “O-oh are you sure? Maybe we could sit and wait while you finish your drink first? Or else it’ll all go to waste,” Rami suggested with a smile on her face.  

[94yen]

The sight was a nice one, something even Yenni was willing to admit despite growing rather bored of it after about five years of visiting. That silent appreciation still wasn’t enough to keep her from fucking it up by taking her smoke break right outside the doors. It was out of boredom more than anything else– she’d rather die than put on snowboarding gear, and all the good festivities didn’t start until after dark, leaving her with hours left to kill. Once the cold started to get to her, she headed back inside, only to be stopped by someone small and already irritating. Appearance screamed high schooler, and the lack of bass in her voice also made it clear that she had no business being there in the first place, enough to solidify her refusal to help and only get as much amusement as she could from the girl.  “Okay, so you’ll want to go outside and make a left, over towards that high ledge– you can’t miss it, promise. Once you’re there, then you just go down off it and pray the snow breaks your fall.” Yenni nodded convincingly, eyes widened with interest as she attempted to get a read on her reaction.

[mkwnrami-blog]

Rami blinked and stared at the stranger incredulously. Did she accidentally interrupted some thing important the stranger was doing? “I-I,” she words got stuck at the back of her throat. Rami wasn’t afraid to admit that she found the other stranger rather intimidating, her aura was so strong that even rami got a little taken aback. “W-What?” she blurted nervously. It was only the first few days of coming to the resort and rami has already gotten on someone else’s bad side. She timidly looked up at the stranger and asked again, “Y-You’re joking right?” and let out an awkward laughter. 

[mkwnchanso-blog]

Excited was not the word for Chanso to use. Ecstatic would probably be it. What a generous opportunity for everyone to be on, going to a ski resort. It was quite something that was unbelievable to Chanso. He was glad it was real though. He was sat in the lobby, just waiting around for nothing in particular when he heard someone start to speak with him. Turning towards them a smile graced his face. ‘’Rami!’’ he squaled, getting up from his seat. It had been a while since he had last seen her and she was quite nice, so he was happy to see her. ‘’I didn’t know you were here as well, how are you doing?’’ Maybe this would be the chance for her to open up slightly, though it wasn’t really Chanso’s place to say that. Realising that she had asked a question he thought for a few moments, he hadn’t been to the rooms yet so they could go and find them together. ‘’Let’s go find them! I haven’t seen them yet myself.’’ Chanso started moving, gesturing for Rami to follow him. It would probably be easy to find out where out where the rooms are, it didn’t look like a large place. ‘’What do you think so far? It’s quite cold, isn’t it?’’

[mkwnrami-blog]

She blinked and stared at the “unfamiliar” face, or as she assumes, for a moment. It took her a while, with her fixed expression, to remember who he was. “O-Oh! C-Chanso?” she exclaimed as she pointed at him with her eyes widening slightly, “I didn’t expect to see you here too, and i’ve been okay.” She had least expected to meet him here again after their encounter back in school. But at least it was good to see a familiar face around here. “Oh, sure,” she answered and followed along beside him. Surprisingly she felt a little more comfortable around him already, although it was not progressing as fast but at least there was some changes. “Yes indeed, it’s pretty cold up here. I hope I didn’t pack too little,” she replied with a soft chuckle, “say, have you taken a look around this place already? I’ve researched a little about them on the internet and it seems like it’s a pretty amazing resort, according to the users,” and grinned a little.

“Ahh, so this is the ski resort that everyone has been talking about the past week,” Rami spoke to herself softly. She made her way around the resort, trying to familiarise herself with the things around her. Everything there seems a little too intimidating to her. It was her first time attending such a event with a school and everything around there felt so, foreign. She looked up and noticed a person, presuming it’s someone from her school, just lounging in the lobby. She internally debated with herself whether to go up to the person or not to ask for directions, because knowing how bad she was with directions, she didn’t want to end up getting lost just to get to her room. After a while, she made up her decision and went up to the unfamiliar face. “E-Excuse me, do you know where the rooms are?” she uttered in a soft voice, while smiling nervously and trying to make an eye contact with whom she was speaking with.
