Imagine Michiru taking her daughter out in the snow. Michiru, who got rare hours off from being a show pony when the roads were shut down, who has precious few memories of actually playing in the snow but has always loved it anyway. Imagine her taking her little daughter, who Haruka has bundled up like the kid in A Christmas Story, out and teaching her how to build a snow man, letting it be a lopsided and messy piece of art for once. Imagine Haruka’s theatric betrayal when Michiru gets in a rare playful streak and teaches their daughter to not only make a snowball, but throw it at Haruka. Imagine Haruka then getting too serious about “No sweetie this is how you throw you gotta follow through” and going over it until her own fingers are numb with cold. Imagine them all cuddling inside after with rosy cheeks.
