@gemfused || KNY!WINTER WISHES STARTERS 3/5
There are a lot of fond memories he has with sledding. Most of the details felt a little fuzzy; something he chalks up to time being the cause than anything else, but the memories of reckless racing down ruinous paths against his rival brings a smile he wasn’t quite sure he’d be capable of making these days. Despite pressing matters of finding The Enchantress and The Tower of Fate, he ventures towards the event watching fondly over towards the occasional groups of sledders hollering with glee as they’d sped by.
‘One quick trip won’t hurt.’ He could use the rush of adrenaline afterwords to carry on his exploration anyways - yet there’s a bit of gloom dangling over his head knowing he’d be going alone. Just as quickly as he finds that smile it’s stolen away all over again. Suddenly, reaching the top of the hill and finding himself staring blankly at the shop’s door feels like a foolish endeavour.
‘What good would this do anyway?’
Turning and heading back would have been his go-to plan had he not whipped around and brandished his pitiful toy shovel the second he finds a figure only a few steps away. He settles down after the initial shock and need to defend himself wears, but looking upwards brings about a whole slew of questions.
“ ...You shouldn’t sneak up on me like that. If it’s the sledding event you seek, you can go around me. ” As he gives them a scoff, it dawns on him that going around his blockade of a body probably was their intention in the first place. “ I’ve no interest in these childish games anyways. ”
