while winter in greece doesn’t exactly reflect the postcard blankets of snow, eonia students have found ways to make it a little more festive. the lights are still in the process of being hung up in the trees, but even as kennedy had entered the clearing to lake cleito, there were already pockets of people helping each other lace up skates. between the zeus and poseidon kids, there’s snow falling around, gathering in some spots leaving piles about what normally is green grass. it nearly resembles a snow globe, an isolated slice of winter, and kennedy couldn’t resist a chance to check it out himself.
he’d found himself a bench to sit on, enjoying the view of the twinkling branches and watching people slip on a particular patch of ice covered by the thin sheet of snow. he only intervenes when he sees elio heading towards it, calling out ( though he’s not sure elio’s likely to hear from a distance ) as he rushes forward, to try and close the distance between them. elio’s just losing his footing as kennedy makes it there and he nearly slips himself, though he does grab elio firmly in an attempt to stabilize them both. unfortunately, it doesn’t work, though fortunately, they land together on the snowy grass rather than the hard ice. his cheeks flame a rosy pink as he untangles himself from elio, sitting up to catch his break. he turns to him then to explain, signing hastily with his words. “ be careful around the edges of the lake. ” he points to where someone else nearly loses their footing to make his point before looking back to elio. “ lots of hidden ice. ” @elioeu
