DTF: Down To Fun 😇

#ddcsif #snow just wants puppy lovin

Snow had been on her way back from a quick Walmart run for the kitten. His appetite was healthy, the vet said, and she needed more formula for him. With her purse full of formula cans she had been scurrying down the rows of tents back to the train. The kitten was with Leroy and safe, she knew, but she already felt she'd been gone too long.

Then she saw the dog. Walking next to Sif was the most beautiful dog she'd ever seen. Slowly so as not to startle the dog or Sif she approached. Standing there, bag full of milk Snow suddenly felt small next to Sif. Maybe it was because she usually saw the woman on a stool instead of towering over her. "Can I pet your dog? And why haven't you brought them to the bar to say hi?"

“Don’t speak, don’t think, don’t even breathe. There’s a growlithe right there.”

“A what?” Snow looked towards where Cal was pointing but didn’t see anything. “Are you feeling alright?”

A Little Mass - Snow and Leroy

“Yeah, y’know, you pick em up and look at their feet to tell their gender.” that joke might be too obscure… But he was already committed to it. “What do you mean we can’t name it Lil’ Asskicker of course we can.”

He flew past other cars on the road towards the Walmart, swerving in and out of traffic maybe a tad over the speed limit. It wasn’t until they pulled into the parking lot that he heard Snow call him Daddy to the cat that he almost crashed the car into the car in front of the in the parking space. Putting it in park (and realizing that he hadn’t hit the other car which saved him from having to rush them in and out) he threw the door open. “C’mon, let’s see what we can find for it.”

Snow nodded, not exactly following the logic but believing him regardless. She’d have to ask him to do it once the kitten was warm. “It’s too young for that language. And I couldn’t call it that. What am I supposed to do, call it Lil’?” She hopped out of the car, closing the door softly behind her. The last thing she wanted was to ruin the paint job or the door or... As she scurried quickly after him the kitten squeaked. “It’s warming up but I think we should still get it a heating pad.”

Any lingering guilt she had over stealing a car vanished under the bright fluorescent lights. This was a quick trip. Whoever owned the car wouldn’t notice. Hopefully. Kitten was thankfully silent until after Snow had rushed past the greeter and set out towards where she thought the pet aisles would be. She hoped. “Formula, a bottle, some cleaning wipes, and litter... Am I forgetting anything?” She turned around looking up at Leroy, and for once she wasn’t distracted by his eyes.

A Little Mass - Snow and Leroy

“Uhh,” he started, a little distracted. “Check its feet. See if it’s a boy or girl. And since you’re keeping it, you can name it, I won’t take that from you. But if I can put in suggestions, I was thinking Lil’ Asskicker.”

He pulled out of the parking lot and down towards the brightly lit area that said there was a fucking Walmart somewhere for all your shopping needs. “Might not have to if the Walmart isn’t too far.” He said. “If we fill it up, they might get suspicious the car was used. And then that’s gonna be a problem.”

#ddcleroy #i dunno leroy makes her feel fuzzy

“It’s feet?” Snow peaked at the little bundle of fur under her shirt. That would have to wait. “Leroy!” Carefully (exaggeratedly) she placed her hands over the entire kitten lump. Shooting him a disappointed look as they drove under street lamps she huffed. “We can’t name it that. It’s too young for that type of language.”

It was a comfortable car for being so small. Outside the lampposts flew by the window in a blur. There was no way the speed they were going was close to the speed limit. Again, though, they had to hurry and nothing was said about it. “You might be right but it still feels wrong to just take someone’s car and not put gas in it. I can’t even make them a drink to say thank you.” A squeaky mewl interrupted her train of thought. Immediately putting on the pet baby voice, Snow’s attention switched instantly back to the kitten. “It’s okay baby, Daddy’s driving as fast as he can. We’ll get you food real soon.”

“No, follow me, the sooner we all can get into a car, the sooner that thing can be taken care of.” He started walking towards the parking lot of the carnival, counting just how long they’d have to ‘borrow’ a car before anyone missed it. The big top show still hadn’t happened yet so they had about two hours overall.

Casually, he tried a few doors as he passed to see if any were unlocked and finally found a Bug with the doors left open. “Two seconds,” he said, squeezing his body under the steering wheel, rummaging around for a few second before the engine turned over “Great, c’mon, hop in.”

“That thing is a baby.” She huffed, scrambling after him. A baby who needed a name. The vet would ask for a name oh dear. “Do you have any ideas for a name? Do we even know if it’s a boy or a girl?” He didn’t seem to know which car they could borrow. Her heart sank a little after the second car. After his hand left each handle she tried telling herself it was dark and maybe he was colorblind or needed glasses. It was a nice thought.

If she hadn’t known he meant stealing instead of borrowing by the time he found an unlocked car, she would have known by the way he turned it on. But they were going to bring it back, and this was life or death for a kitten. “We’re filling the gas tank up before we come back right?” It was the least they could do for whoever owned the car. Without waiting for an answer she buckled up, adjusting the strap to sit below the kitten.

She immediately took the cat and he sighed, relieved that she took it. He thought Stitch might take it if she didn’t, but he had another cat and Leroy had his snake. To his knowledge, Snow didn’t have anything small and living in her car. But she picked it up and tucked it under her collar and he figured the cat wasn’t going anywhere else.

“To Walmart? Yeah, I’ll walk with you.” He shoved his hands in his pockets and rocked on his heels as he looked towards the road. “Actually, I might be able to, uh, borrow a way for us to get there lemme go look.”

#ddcleroy #uh huh suuuuuuuuuure

She wrapped her arms around the little lump on her chest. “Oh could you? That would be amazing.” Smiling up at him she settled in to wait. Kitten would need a bottle and some formula at the least. “Do you want us to wait here or follow you or meet you somewhere else?” And a heating pad. And a vet visit. And and and. Her list was getting out of control.

A Little Mass - Snow and Leroy

“Hey, okay, great, I found you.” He grabbed her by the arm and led her away from prying eyes. “So, I found this out in the dark, by the road over there,” he said, nodding towards the highway in the distance. “Don’t ask what I was doing. Anyway, I didn’t wanna leave it.” He brought his hand out, hidden in his jacket, a small little tuft of fur meowed at her. “It’s a little injured, but nothing that can’t be healed. I figured you were the best bet for it.”

#ddcleroy #you say this like I twisted your arm #rude

"Oh!" He was always surprising her, popping up unexpectedly. "Hello to you too, Leroy. What's—?" Snow let herself be led away to wherever he was taking her. Privacy was hard to come by living so close to everyone that being pulled into the shadows seemed normal. The more he said the more she started to worry, eyes scanning over his frame to try and figure out what was going on.

But then there was a kitten far too small to be away from its mother, and her heart was breaking. Without even thinking she scooped the tiny baby into her hands. "This poor thing... It's so cold!" Moving slowly so she wouldn't hurt it further, she pulled her neckline away from her skin, settling the kitten on her chest. "We have to go to Walmart. Will you." Walking to the nearest store in the dark wasn't an appealing idea. "Will you walk with us or find a way for us to drive?"

“I’ve already been t’sleep.” she admitted, looking at the woman as her hand was offered to her, taking it in her own, “Eilonwy Llyr.” she replied softly, “Sorry if I’m keepin’ yeu from gettin’ to yer bed….”

#ddceilony #princess power

Snow checked her phone for the time, and clicked her tongue. “Unless you went to sleep at five I don’t think it counts. Now, Eilonwy– am I saying it right?” She stopped to squeeze the girl’s hand and pulled her to her feet. “I could use a glass of milk before going to bed. Want to join me?”

Davy followed, almost blindly, behind the girl, tripping over her feet as they started towards the train. “Do you need to leave your things? I mean, I can wait, I’m not that hungry, if you have more important things to do, you know.” Davy told the women, finally catching up to her.

“Breafast is the most important meal of the day. My clothes aren’t going to be mad if I don’t fold them right away.” She skipped along, little legs carrying her quickly up the train steps and into the hall. “Besides you don’t want the waffles to be cold do you? We’ll get breakfast, and after that I’ll finish my chores.”

“There’s a bar here?” she asked, having wished she’d known sooner to be able to maybe have gone and calmed her nerves a bit. Her aunt had once let her go with her to a bar, though they didn’t stay for longer then a drink, “N-no… ’m fine. I’m use to the cold…” she assured, pulling her sweater a little tighter about herself, “I just… I needed some air…”

#ddceilony #she's gonna wrap her in blankets

She took a slow step forward. Something wasn’t right. It wasn't hard to tell, from the slump of her shoulders to the small hitch in her voice everything spoke of the girl being troubled. "There is, right behind the lounge car. I can make you a drink tomorrow night if you'd like. But first you should probably sleep. And then have breakfast in the morning." Stepping closer with each word she finally stopped close enough to extend her hand. "I'm Snow."

“Well he’s very charming. Strong and handsome and tall. There’s nobody like him anywhere at all.”

ღ?

Her fingers knotted together to keep from fidgeting. Snow liked to consider herself subtle after all. It wouldn’t do to show just how much of a crush she had just in case anyone ever traced it back to him. “He’s very kind. His smile is a little crooked, and it’s darling.”

She ran a hand through her braids, tugging at them lightly before glancing back at the Ferris wheel, “I guess, yeah, reminds me of one from the boardwalk when I was young, it always scared me back then.” Davy then laughed breathlessly and shrugged, “Breakfast? Uh.. I.. Don’t think so?”

#ddcdavy #gonna get some waffles #with the fruit #breakfast date tim

“Ferris wheels scare a lot of people; it’s okay.” Snow shifted her little basket to her other hip deciding right then that breakfast with laundry was not the strangest things a person had ever done and especially not a person working at a carnival. “You poor thing. No wonder everything’s looking less than spectacular. Everything looks better after a warm breakfast. The dining car should be open by now, and I’m pretty sure it’s waffle day. Come on.” Without waiting for an answer she started off towards the train, bouncing along like she expected to be followed.

“It doesn’t look safe..” Davy said, and looked down, the young women before her was very animated for such an early hour, her hair curled and a basket of clothing at her hip. Surely she was lost, no creature like this, so full of life, could be in a place that was so depraved. “Davy.” She said, and shrugged. “Just came on, I guess.”

#ddcdavy #snow's gonna give her a break from all the guys

“It’s nice to meet you, Davy!” Snow beamed up at her new friend. “Welcome to the carnival. I know it looks a little like something out of a history book, but everyone here is very nice. They wouldn’t put anything up if it could hurt someone.” Her free hand tucked some hair behind her ear as she regarded the woman in front of her. “Have you had breakfast yet? You look a little hungry.”

“Wow,” Davy said, walking towards the rickety ferris wheel, “I mean, I knew I was looking at a shitty job, but I had no idea it was this bad.” She put her hands on her hips and looked up, the squeaking carts swinging dangerously in the wind.

The carnival wasn’t open yet– it was too early– and she’d just gotten back from the nearest laundromat. Her little bundle of washing was moved to balance on her hip when she stopped in front of a new face. “It’s the swinging that gets me too.” Snow smiled up at the ferris wheel and then at the woman in front of her. “I just remind myself that they wouldn’t put it up if it wasn’t safe, and I can enjoy the view again. Oh. My name is Snow. I haven’t seen you around yet.”

A voice jerked Eilowny from her thoughts with a start and she flinched a little, turning her head to see someone she hadn’t met yet coming towards her. She would have thought that everyone else would be in bed and asleep by now, but clearly at least one other person was about. Bright blue eyes scanned over the woman nervously before giving a small nod, “Aye…’m fine.” she assured, her voice soft and a bit nervous.
