Day 5 Domino: Let it Snow: Preperations

[voidtreckermods]

Early Evening

Due to some of the passengers having strange dreams those on the Voidtrecker Express should be expecting something soon and so it is around dinner time on the evening of the fifth day of Domino that everyone's SCA glows with the colour of the void, a holographic message appears with their next mission.

Those going to the dressing car will find the drawers and wardrobes open. Inside are a variety of warm weather clothes, all in team colours. Thick padded winter jackets, waterproof trousers. Hats, gloves, scarves. Thick boots and also a variety of ice skates. There are waterproof covers for a variety of sizes of bags and even some coils of rope.

It seems they are not arriving until the next morning and so they have time to plan as best they can.

Morning: Day Six

No matter if they stayed up late preparing or went to bed early to get some rest before the mission they will wake up the next morning to the morning announcement. "Good morning passengers. Today is day six of the month of Domino. A moment later the voice speaks again. "Our next stop is world#58291. Drop order: Purple, Blue, Red, Orange. Conditions are adverse and so all passengers must be ready to alite swiftly."

There is time for some final preparation.

Bucky wholly, entirely, one-hundred-percent-ly disagrees with that statement, but he doesn't say so, he just drops his gaze back to the skates that are now neatly tied together and set aside. "Then I hope you return safely from the mission because of it."

Is Kaito telling the truth or lying, who knows? The smile never falters, never breaks.

"I'll be fine. I'm on Orange, so we've got the maze. I'm good at that sort of thing." He says cheerfully.

[luckybucky]

It never really occurs to Bucky that Kaito might be lying. He assumes most people are honest most of the time -- so far, it's served him pretty well. The only people that have been truly deceptive are ones who were already hurting him in other ways, anyway.

"Yeah, but it's all ice," he replies, frowning tightly. He's glad he's not going to be in the maze. Ice on all sides might be too much for him to handle. "Just don't get stuck, okay?" He'd absolutely come to the rescue, but he doesn't want to have to.

[stealsyourheart]

Kaito is a master of saying the truth while lying through his teeth!

"Well yes." He shrugs. "It's okay. I don't have to skate, so it's fine."

[luckybucky]

This is going to come back to bite Bucky in the ass someday, isn't it?

"Do you have trouble skating? Or just stopping?" He smiles a little at his own tiny attempt at a joke.

[stealsyourheart]

Maybe~

"Both." He says wryly. "Somehow, it's one skill I just can't manage. Well. I suck at billards, too."

[luckybucky]

He huffs out a laugh. "If we had the time, I'd teach you. Do you know how to walk on ice without falling?"

[stealsyourheart]

"Yeeeeeeeeeah." He waggles his fingers. "So long as I don't go too fast, it's fine. I prefer snow over ice thought."

[luckybucky]

"Doesn't everyone?" Bucky asked with a little huff, getting up and ending up with another clump of webbing in his hair. "Well, I think I have everything I need. Good luck," he offers Kaito his hand for a shake.

[stealsyourheart]

"Thanks, Bucky-san!" He grins back and shakes his hand.

"Although you might want to dust the webbing off."

[luckybucky]

Bucky lifts both brows, leaning away to get a look at his hair in the mirror, and wrinkles his nose. "Thanks," he steps away, stopping in front of the mirror to get the webbing out of his hair, and then he heads back towards his room.

[stealsyourheart]

"Good luck out there!" He waves and bounces off to do his own thing.
