16th Flight: [Action]

[skyborne_mage]

[It is probably none too surprising that most of the trees in Luceti now have snow-covered branches.

However, a few observant folks might notice that not all of the snow appears undisturbed...

Arche snickers as she places the last of her snowball piles in the boughs of Luceti's trees.] Perfect. Now everything's set up.

[She is now going to fly around the village, looking for people out and about who might prove amusing targets. She's got snowballs stashed pretty much everywhere, so the only question is: Are you going to be one of her victims?]

[Or girls landing in tree branches covered in snowballs, as she is now. Grinning at having such an easy target, Arche takes aim... and throws straight at his butt.]

[Minato's had a lot of practice dodging Shadow attacks, but not snowballs while he's distracted. Easy target, indeed. The impact makes him whirl around, not exactly sure what just happened.]

[And Arche is now hiding behind the tree, peeking out just enough to see his reaction.]

[emp3thy]

[He's pretty much figured out it's snow by now, and since there aren't any branches close enough to dump it on him, he starts looking more carefully for the culprit.]

[Hmmm, catching him off guard again won't be easy. Perhaps a little trick is in order...

Muttering a wind spell, she takes aim at the snow-laden branches of another tree, blowing them just enough to knock the snow down and provide a distraction.]

[as expected, his eyes flicker to the pile of falling snow.]

[And as his attention is diverted, she hurls a ball at the back of his head.]

[emp3thy]

[But this time, he's alert. Spotting the snowball out of the corner of his eye, he ducks just enough that it goes whizzing over his head, then turns to the direction it came from.]

[And he'll get the sight of the end of a bushy pink ponytail ducking behind a tree, up in the branches.]
