## It's Snowing in April

Posted on 21:07, April 2, 2018 (UTC)

June was tugging at the curls dangling in front of her eyes as she stood on the bridge, looking down at the frosted stream below, snaking through the park. Around her, cherry blossom trees were blooming, their branches covered with a mild layer of snow from a surprise last-minute snowfall that had occurred last night. Her plan had been to get some fresh air but from here she didn't know what to do.

As she felt basically dead indoors, Artemis had decided to go for a walk in the park, not really understanding how it was gonna look with the weird spring snow. At the moment, she missed her home an awful lot. Everything was so different here. "Goddammit! Back there it wouldn't be snowing in frickin' April!" she mumbled, before noticing someone standing nearby. "Oh shit, sorry. Didn't see you there. Out for a walk, huh?"

"No," she said, her voice kind of distant as she hid her wariness of the stranger. "You said something about snowing in April. This isn't a common thing. The weather's been pretty off this year," she continued. Her hands had fallen from her hair to her pockets, she was still staring at the bridge. "Like really off."

Artemis couldn't help but roll her eyes. "Yes, I know. It's just *really, really* different from what I'm used to. You know, subtropical climate. Always warm. Back home, we had a few rainy days in a year, not snow in frickin' spring!" She paused, thinking she might've just scared the girl off. "But hey, it could've been a hailstorm."

She resisted the urge to flinch and turned to stare at the odd girl, displeased by her... *eccentric*-ness. "You're a Twinkie, I gather then," she stated, the wind sweeping through the trees to push her hair to the side.

She nodded, feeling calmer now. "Yeah, I am. But it still feels weird being called a Twinkie. It sounds like a unicorn name or something. Never liked unicorns... Do they exist here? Since you have frickin' dragons, it wouldn't be that surprising. Although I wouldn't like that."

"It's derived from an ancient word that means immigrant," she said with a shrug. "And yes, unicorns do exist here. Though they're not what you're probably imagining in your head."

"I sure hope so. This world isn't lame enough to have pink rainbow creatures. By the way, are you a student at IIYM? I have a feeling that I've seen you somewhere," she asked, trying to remember.

She nodded, "Yeah. IIYM. Why? you go there too?" Her hand floated up to her face to untangle curly strands of hair that had bound together because of the wind.

She nodded. "I do. Although I have a feeling like I haven't learned much." Not knowing what to say next, she began tying up her hair into a ponytail.

"For all the years you've been here, you've learned nothing?" she asked. "That's awfully strange."

She shrugged, feeling a little misunderstood. "I don't think it's strange. I mean, I've learned things, just don't find them very useful. And still a little surreal."

"Give me an example," she suggested, trying to grasp exactly what Artemis meant.
