Recently, the snow had been coming down very heavily. It reminded Iceland of home. The plains had a blanket of snow on top if it, and it was perfect for a snow ball fight. He remembered when he used to have snow ball fights with his brother, Sweden, and Denmark, back when they were all apart of the Kalmar union, or as he liked to call it, the time when Denmark was even more annoying than he is now. Of course, Denmark was always so busy, so it wasn't often that they got to play together. Also, Sweden and Norway weren't pleased with the fact that they were in a union with Denmark.
He sat down in the snow with Mr. Puffin sitting on his shoulder. He had wanted to keep Mr. Puffin inside, but the annoying bird had insisted on coming. He knew that there would be hell to pay if the puffin didn't get his way, he knew way to many things for his own good. Just another reason why he hated black mail.

Malaysia walked around the plains. She was freezing out here, but she wanted some time away from a crowded area, the warehouse. Malaysia never felt snow before, as it never snowed at her place before. So she spend christmas in the summer heat. But snow felt so unreal, like icing on a cake. It felt so realistic, from all the times she watch England's boring christmas movies. Actually, snow was a wonder to her.
Malaysia hold here scarf closely to her as she continue to looked down and walk. She humed a tune and strolled down a random road, until she saw some footprints. These footprints were not hers. Hers were much smaller than hers. She follow the trail until she stopped and looked up to see a nation was sitting there, alone with a pet bird. Apperentely, they were not affected by the snow at all. So they must be used to it unlike her.
"Hellloooooooo" Malaysia said before tripping on a branch hidden under the snow and falling down. How clumsy of her.

Iceland heard someone say hello behind him, and he didn't recognize the voice. If it was someone he knew, then they probably would have tried to sneak up on him anyway. He turned around to see who it was, only to find a teenage girl who had fallen down in the snow. Well, he couldn't just leave her there, that would be rude.
He walked closer to the girl and held out his hand for her to take. "Hallo, are you needing help?" He really wished that she had been one of the Nordic countries, then he wouldn't need to speak english. He hated how his accent sounded.

"U...Um.. N..no thank y...ou." Malaysia said as she stood up slowly and dust off the snow on he uniform. She was rather embarassed that she needed to be help again. She is an adult and she should try acting like one! Malaysia hugged her arms, never did she felt this cold before. She never felt snow so that might be a good reason.
"Um... What a..are you d...doing here?"Malaysia asked, shivering. She wasnt used to the cool air in the sky. She also wandered what is someone like him doing in the snow with very little winter wear.

"I was enjoying the weather. I am being reminded of when I used to make snowmen with big bro- I mean Norway." How could Iceland let himself slip like that? He had tried so hard not to refer to Norway as big brother, only using it inside his head. He hoped the other nation didn't know his brother very well, or at least wouldn't tell anyone.
"I am not believing we have been introduced, I am Iceland. Who are you?" he had tried to change the subject as quickly as possible. Besides that, he didn't really know who the other nation was, and he couldn't keep calling the other nation her, or you.

"Oh i see..." Malaysia said emotionlessly. Big bro... Norway if she heard? Well she was glad that he have a sibling here. Unlike her, she was still worrying about her very own siblings. Though she never saw them for a darn long time. About 100+ years long. So they might have change in how they looked.
"Im... Malaysia..." She said, trying to force out a smile. She wasnt really good at talking to people nowadays. "Snowman huh?" Malaysia said, recalling the times when she watched England's boring christmas movies where children would play with snowballs and make some creature out of snow which they call the snowman. The fact that it never snowed in her country make it hard to believe it was true. "Can you teach me how to make one?" Malaysia asked innocently.

Iceland nodded his head yes. "It is easy, just watch." He sat down and grabbed a handful of snow. He packed the snow together in order to make a snowball, then he got more and more snow in order to make the snowball bigger and bigger. When the snowball was to big to hold, he set it down in the snow.
"After you make a big snowball, you have to roll it through the snow to make it bigger." He lightly pushed the snowball through the snow for about two feet and then stopped. You had to push it lightly in order for it to not break apart. If it broke apart, you had to start all over again, because it was very hard to put the already broken snowball back together. "You try it now." He was still sitting down in the snow, and waited for Malaysia to repeat what he had just done.

((Any particular time you want me to jump in? If not, I'm gonna just edit this post.))
Spain pulled his jacket tighter around him and sneezed. He never hated anything, but he wasn't very happy outside in the cold. He wished so much that he was inside and warm... However, he needed some time to himself and to think.
That didn't seem very likely now, but at least the two nations he saw out in the distance weren't very old - at least physically. He always did better around nations and even people the younger they were. He just was good with children.
As he got closer, he saw that they were rolling snow into balls. He had never seen people do that before.
"Hola!" He raised his hand in a small wave when he got close enough to them so he could been heard easier. "What're you two doing?" He sneezed a little and rubbed underneath his nose. "Sorry~ It's really cold to me here~."

(( yes, you are welcome to join anytime you want. ))
Iceland turned around to see who the nation was behind them. It was hard to turn around while he was sitting down, so he stood up and then completely turned around. "Hallo Spain, we are making snowmen, are you wanting to join us?" He almost cringed at the the sound of his own accent. Why did it have to sound so silly?
When he had stood up to greet Spain, he had accidently bumped into the snowball on the ground, making it break in half. Great, now he would have to start all over again. It didn't really matter to much though, he could easily make another one.

Spain tilted his head a bit, and rose one eyebrow. "Snowmen? What're those?" Sure, he had snow in his house, but it didn't snow all that often and even then, not that much fell. He never had much to make a snowball, never mind an entire person. But he felt a bit bad for making him break the large snowball on the ground.
"Ah, sorry for making you get up."

((I suddenly cant edit that post so im making a new one)) Malaysia squatted.down and pick up some snow from the ground. She then roled it up into a shape that looks like a ball and place it on the ground, where the snow is. Malaysia carefully and slowly rolled the ball of snow until it was half her height. She smiled in happiness for doing something she never believe would work. Snow is just so fancinating
As soon as Malaysia heard a familiar voice from behind her, she turned around and notice Spain walking towards them. "Hi!" Malaysia said happily, glad to see an friend of hers.

"Snowmen are people made of snow. You use one large, one medium, and one small snowball placed on top of each other to make it. Then you use sticks and anything else you can find to make the arms and face." That was the best way Iceland could explain what a snowman was. Even if Spain didn't have snow, hadn't he ever visited a place with snow, or heard about it?
"That's ok, I will make another one." He sat back down in the snow and started to make another base for his snowman. This time he made it even bigger, but not quite as big as Malaysia's. "Come and join us Spain."

Spain tilted his head and nodded slowly, lips pursed in thought. It sounded odd to him, but it sounded interesting, so he counted himself in.
"Sure~" He smiled broadly and tried to follow Iceland's lead with the snowballs, but having trouble keeping the snow together and with little success in general. He pouted when he watched his attempts at snowballs crumble into dust.
"I seem to not be good at this..."

"Maybe try to be a little gentle with the snow thing?" Malaysia asked as she walked to Spain. Well, it should have snowed in his country so doesnt he know how to make those snow things?she sooped up some snow in her hands and place it in his hands. She then show the action of gently kneading using the air, hoping he got something.
"Then slowly and gently roll the snow thing on the snow on the ground to make it bigger." Malaysia said, pausing very now and then when she trys to think of what England's old boring christmas movies had when they played with snow.
