pistolperfect | [ video/action ] ✸ 03 ✸ this is how weapons show their love for their meister.

[Liz just grins at the screen before holding it back out to reveal the lake, the snow covering the ground. but it wasn't the lake she was trying to show. it was a certain three-half-striped hair meister who was completely dismantling one of eight snowmen. four were on one side, and four were on the side they were on.]

After I've reset the base, I'll be able to fix this next one that's a little shorter than the others.

You know, I think the one on the other side of the shore is a little lopsided.

What!? Liz, can you help me, please??

What? No! It's way too cold. Besides, I might mess it up. I already helped you build them.

Which you did a poor job of.

Hey!

Where did Patti run off to, anyway?

[at this point, Kid had his back to Liz who just peeked into the screen, a rather devilish smirk on her lips.]

Oh, Patti? I'm sure she'll pop up sooner or later.

[as if on cue, there was a loud yell as what looked like some random wild child burst through the bushes and charged toward Kid.]

RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWRRR I'M A BEAR!!!!

!?!? Patti?? What are you—NO!! NOT THE SNOWMEN—

[and with Liz laughing and the camera shaking, Patti proceeded to crash into one snowman, much to Kid's horror, and then circled back around to slam into Kid and effectively shove him into the lake.]

Yeah wha—[wait a minute what the hell—]

K-Kid! You're freezing!!

Of course I am, Liz. There is snow on the ground and I am waist deep in a half-frozen lake!

No I mean—your hair! You're icing over!! Can't you even feel it? [looks, he knows you're all super shinigami and all that but that's just insane, okay.

also, to tell that they're not freezing over evenly or not....]

[He did not actually realize that. Thank you for telling him, Liz.]

My suit is ruined.

[And he lifts one hand to check on the state of his hair. The ice on his sleeve cracks.]

[now she's coming over.]

God, just looking at you makes me feel so much colder. Well don't just stand there, get out!

[Splosh, splosh, slosh. He is dripping and the water is forming icicles on the hems of his clothes.]

My snowmen are ruined. [Almost a sob.]

Stop worrying about your stupid snowmen and start worrying about yourself!

Patti, let's head back to the Villa.

Liz, I'm fine. The symmetry of the sculptures is more important than my suit.

It's not your stupid suit I'm worried about, it's you. Augh, I know you're a shinigami but even being frozen can't be good for you!

I am not frozen. The water on my suit and hair is frozen.

Whatever, you'll still catch some weird shinigami flu or something if you stay like that.

Or I could have Patti carry you back.

Liz, there is no such thing as shinigami flu.

How do you know? ...Have you even ever gotten sick before?

I have not.

Seriously!? You—there are no illnesses or whatever??

[stupid god body.]

Liz, what kind of god would get sick?

I don't know! Do I look like I know crap about gods!? There could be some weird disease that only gods can get, I don't know!

Well I wouldn't get it from standing in a lake!

[uuuuggggghh.]

Forget it. If you turn into an ice cube, not my problem.

[He's not going to turn into an ice cube, Liz. He's going to slosh his way out of the lake, dripping like a wet cat.]

I need to fix these snowmen. Are you going to help?

Do you really need to fix them? Why don't you at least dry off and change first? It's not like they're going anywhere.

They might. [You never know.] Or someone might come and damage them further.

Well you can't just stay here the whole day.

Why not?

It's FREEZING, Kid! You could at least act like a normal person for once!

[augh.]

Whatever, I'm definitely not staying out here for much longer, and I'm not going to let Patti catch a cold either.
