Winter. Again. Sebastian growled softly to himself as he added tinder to their fire. He was wearing every article of clothing that he owned; which didn't amount to much. Three shirts, two pairs of pants, four hole filled socks and his weather beaten shoes. On the plus side, it had stopped snowing the previous night, so at least he didn't have to deal with the flurries snuffing out the flames. The rest of the gang was around somewhere, but as usual, he didn't care about whatever the frick it was they were up to. His concern was staying warm; and making sure that Zanita was doing good too. Glancing over the fire to where she was, he shrugged and started rubbing his hands over the fire."You know something? This sucks." Pinching the bridge of his nose to make sure it was still there, Sebastian then checked each of his fingers in turn. The tips were red from the cold, but that was a good thing; if they were blue then his fingers might have been on their way to falling off."What do we got to eat around here anyway? And don't say snow because I've been eating this crap all morning."

Zanita Luzell

Winter was the worst time of the year. The heat of the summer, Zanita could take, but all this cold wind and snow? No. Get that out of her camp site. Currently she was wrapped up in an odd combination of dresses, short sleeved and long sleeved shirts, pants, socks, and blankets. Her boots were almost at the end of their rope and Zanita planned on wearing them until they were just dust between her toes. Listening to Sebastian, the girl gazed over the fire at him. She smirked at his words, but it hurt her frozen face to move it too much so it looked more like a pained wince. "Too bad, I was gonna say snow." Looking over her shoulder at the other snow covered tents near by, Zanita speculated at what might be in them. "Those brothers might have some questionable dried meat, if you're desperate."

Sebastian snorted; or he would have, but because of the weather it came out as more of a shivered huff."Not that desperate, no." He looked at the wannabe water all around him and grimaced. He had seen younger kids actually play in the stuff, throwing chunks of it at each other or making designs in it with their hands or whole bodies. Some even made some tiny houses out of it. Dumb. Dumb and double dumb. Sebastian started to pace back and forth to keep his blood pumping in his legs, leaving crunchy footsteps behind him. In a bout of sudden frustration, he kicked a mound up with his foot and glowered as the snow fell back down. To be honest, he wanted to punch someone, but punchable people weren't around. He supposed that he could find Kovu somewhere, but Zanita would object to that."Screw this."he sighed. Sebastian bent down and started gathering snow, attempting to roll it into a ball and then pushing it around to make it bigger. If there wasn't anyone around to hit then he was going to build one.

Zanita Luzell

Smirking as Sebastian stomped around in the snow, the girl gained a lot of enjoyment watching the boy get so worked up over little things. So it was cold, big whoop! The boy kicked up a mound of white flurries, letting the snowflakes whirl around the tiny fire and settle in Zanita's hair. Shaking them off, the girl watched as the boy gave an angry huff and started gathering the snow he hated so much into a ball on the ground. "Trying to kick the snow while it's down? Not a very sportsman like move," she said, kneeling down on the other side of the little snow sculpture, taking one of Sebastian's hands between her own in an attempt to warm it up. However, all it seemed to do was make her own fingers even colder. "You're going to freeze your fingers off like that."

She took his hand and he smiled softly."Well at least if I froze my fingers off they wouldn't be cold."Grimacing, he returned to balling up the snow and kept at it until he had made a tiny facsimile of a person. One roundish lump of snow each for the legs, torso and the head. He glared at it, as if to say that it was the personification of the winter itself and thus should be the focus of his timely wrath. He tried to imagine the faces of some of the people he disliked but none came to his rather numb mind. After a moment's reflection, he raised a leg up and proceeded to stomp the snowman into oblivion with a look of grim satisfaction etched on his face. "Take that you bastard!" It might not have been much defense against the cold, but it helped to some degree. Blowing out another sigh, Sebastian stepped closer to the fire and warmed his digits before holding Zanita's hand. It was a hard life on the streets of district nine, but some things were bearable if the right people were right there with you.
