she watched as Rain got her own skis on. [color=39b54a]"good job, you learn quick"[/color] then Rain face-planted in the snow and Andro snorted before she managed to cover her mouth. she sobered her expression as the guide helped her up, but she still had a slight smile on her face. after Rain apologized the Gorgon replied [color=39b54a]"don't worry, everyone does it at least once, I think I did it four times when my mom brought me skiing"[/color] she said, as she approached the lift. 
Rain's question took her a bit by surprise and she had to take a second before she could answer. [color=39b54a]"I only went once"[/color] she said [color=39b54a]"well, I only did the actual skiing part once, after that my mom just let me stay at the resort while she went skiing, she didn't exactly mind not having me around"[/color] she let the guide help her up onto the seat and she scooted over so Rain could get on. she didn't feel the need to tell Rain that first ski trip had ended with her getting hypothermia, she only intended to go down the bunny trail once, to get people off her back, she shouldn't be out here long enough to worry about it.
she smiled at Rain again [color=39b54a]"I can tell you've never gone skiing, but have you spent a lot of time in the mountains before? you looked pretty comfortable before you put the skiis on"[/color] her segue was probably a bit awkward but her mother was a bit of a sore subject.
