slip slidin' away

Chimera was warming slightly, or at least the skin was warding off the cold enough that the boy wasn’t chattering anymore. That alone helped Venom to feel a bit better. She didn’t ask him along with her, but now that he was beside her Venom felt the need to help care for him in the cold. They were siblings, and she knew that she should feel some kind of affection for the new pups. He didn’t know what sledding was, not that Venom expected him to. She had never been at least, but she knew what it was. Mostly from stories told by Poison. He was an odd squirrel, meditation guru and master of all things ‘fun’... it was disgusting.

She didn’t notice his reaction to the unseen, but she would answer his questions as her lilac gaze searched for materials on the mountainside. There were a couple of dead trees, large dead trees, with huge pieces of bark. The snow was thick enough… ”We make a sled, probably just a big piece of dead bark. Get on top of it at the crest of a tall hill and then slide down. We could make a race of it.” She raised her brows as she looked back to her little brother. Was he cold enough to be interested in a game? When she was young it was all business, and she wasn’t sure if she could remember a moment where she played.
