[color=skyblue]"Of course it was..."[/color] She grumbled [color=skyblue]"Gremlins, the lot of them"[/color] Normally Rain would have caught Andro's shivering but with the heavy set thermal clothes and being rather self absorbed with her own problems she didn't notice...it was bad on her part, as a werewolf being in tune with others was a must. The werewolf dropped her ski's on the floor and shook her head in answer to Andro's question. She leant forward and rested her hands on her thighs as she watched the gorgon clumsily do up her own. She was taken aback by Andro's gentle question and caught off guard by the smile that accompanied it, the werewolf wasn't convinced she deserved it. [color=lightseagreen][i]'Not that it isn't welcome...'[/i][/color] Realising that she had been staring for longer than the customary 10 seconds or so, Rain gave another curt nod. [color=skyblue]"I think I got it..."[/color] She murmured, crouching down to fiddle around with the clips on her own ski's. It didn't take her long to get everything connected up... [color=skyblue]"As ready as I'm ever going to be"[/color] She sighed, looking down at her feet to double check everything looked the same as Andro's set up. Nothing could have prepared her for what was to come next as she tried to take a step forward, having not thought to pick up the poles that had come with the ski's, she started sliding backwards. With a startled yelp she threw herself forward and dug her fingers into the snow, her claws grazed against the frozen ground but didn't offer her the best traction... Cue the helpful lift monitor who quickly pulled her back into her feet and handed both her and Andro a set of poles. Rain's cheeks were flushed a light rosy color as she righted herself, which was a rare treat when it came to the confident werewolf. [color=skyblue]"Sorry, that was...embarrassing. Caleb is the only one who should be pulling stunts like that"[/color] She apologised to Andro, looking away as she risked pushing her hair back behind her ear and attempted to move up to the lift. She couldn't put her finger on it but the fact she'd messed up in front of Andromeda of all people had flustered her all the more. [color=skyblue]"So, moving on swiftly...how often did you and your mum go skiing?"[/color] She asked in an attempt to move on from her fumble as the guy set about getting them into the lift.
