Snow! GIP!

. . .Dude, it's summer back in Nita's world. Snow is a good thing.

Nita's outside, idly making snowballs and stockpiling them up. Though she's got a good coat and mittens, she's hatless.

Approaching carries the risk of a snowball fight. You've been warned.

"No problem," she grins back. "I could do with a distraction. I've been out here for a while."

She eyes the tightly packed snowball Nita is making. Her hand slips into her pocket, taking out her wand. She points it at the ground, where a flurry of snow starts rolling itself into a firm, round ball.

Nita's eyes widen a little at the magic, and then she grins. Competitively. Time for some one-upping.

This time, she says a few words to the snowball before throwing it, and keeps talking rapidly as it flies, straight as an arrow, within a foot of Angelina.

She shoots up several feet to avoid the ball, laughing, and uses a summoning charm to call the snowball she made to herself. She catches it, pulls her arm back and throws it hard and fast at Nita. If she stays where she is, the ball will hit her. The question is, does Nita have the reflexes to get out of the way in time?

[nita_callahan]

Just barely. She dodges, and the ball explodes on her shoulder.

"No fair!" she calls, laughing. "You've got a height advantage!"

[capt_angie]

She laughs and directs the broom towards the ground. She jumps off and leans it against the nearest tree.

"There! No advantage now," she grins. Then she points her wand at one the snowballs Nita has been piling up, and with a flick of her wrist directs it to crash into the back of Nita's head.

Nita shrieks and ducks too late.

"So that's how it's gonna be, huh?"

She snatches up a snowball, says a few words, and throws it. Again, it flies with far more strength and accuracy than it should.

[capt_angie]

She doesn't move fast enough to get out of the way and the snowball crashes against her shoulder.

"Good shot! But you got lucky. It won't happen again, you can count on that," she calls over, grinning.

She makes a wide, sweeping motion with her wand as she talks, and a flurry of loose snow flies towards Nita.

It should (theoretically) cause enough of a destraction so that Angie can set a few snowballs to rolling themselves- she can't keep stealing Nita's after all.

[nita_callahan]

"Oh, bring it o--"

The rest is lost in a yell of surprise at the loose snow. She flails backwards, and, using the snow as a cover, says a few breathless words.

When the snow settles -- she's gone. It's a simple Don't Notice spell, that makes people's eyes slide off her, not register her presence.

She crouches in the snow to present less of a target, and watches for Angelina's next move.
