Soon, she started to notice they had pushed together enough to create the bottom half of a snowman. She helped Eino push it all together and smooth it out.
"I just never had the urge to run out into the snow and build a snowman. I just gathered snowballs and chucked them at my brother," she added. She passed him a smirk on that note. Somewhere in the middle of shaping the ball, Sierra's hand managed to smooth right on over Eino's hand. Sure, her hands were gloved, but it embarrassed her all the same. She blushed a teeny, tiny bit then sat back a little. "You know, we could just create a wizard snowman. Nothing elaborate, just...an awesome looking snowman maybe carrying a wand." Or, a stick made to look like a wand. She sure as heck wasn't going to give up her wand.
Well, it hadn't really been Eino's parents who encouraged him out into the cold to build snowdragons. In fact, quite the opposite. His mother dreaded the idea of Eino out in the cold weather, touching the cold snow with his bare hands. She often protested against it, but Eino always found a way to sneak outside and do it.
"At least now you are building one." He said and smiled. Since it was her first one, Eino had to make sure it was extra special, so she could be proud of it. They couldn't build just any dopey looking snowman now.
"Snowball fights... I've never had one of those." He admitted shyly. They seemed rather fun, but his upbringing had been rather solitary and he didn't have any brothers or sisters to play with. Snowman building was something he could do by himself, so that was all he did. That and snow dementors, but when he actually found out what dementors were he stopped doing them.
"I didn't know you had a brother." He didn't know much about her at all, but definitely not that she had a brother.
Then, as he was smoothing the surface of the snow, their hands touched. Eino was wearing no gloves and the warmth of her gloves made him realize just how cold the snow really was. He couldn't help but to be a little embarrassed, but he rubbed his hands together, to warm them, pretending it hadn't happened.
"Splendid idea!" He exclaimed and nodded in agreement, as though nothing had happened. A wizard snowman would be fantastic.
"Perhaps he could be casting a spell?" He suggested, as he thought of any possible spells that would make their snowman even more awesome.
