"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.

Of course Eino had never had had a snowball fight. He just didn't seem like the type to unexpectedly pelt someone in the head with a huge ball of snow. Sierra, on the other hand, had loved to catch her brother off guard. "So I'm making a snowman with you, ...which means you'll have to have a snowball fight with me," she answered. Just not now, since someone had just gotten in trouble for that.

"Alex is...sort of my twin brother," she explained. "He's my half brother, but we were born at the same time." ...and that's just all she'd say about that. Other than... "We have different fathers, which means he's really not a Greingoth." She didn't know what his real name was supposed to be, though. "He's a Hufflepuff." What a shame. Although, supposedly his father had been one, too.

Realizing they'd finally built the bottom half of the snowman, Sierra sat back and admired their work. Snowman building was hard. Wasn't there a charm for this? "Hmm. Okay," she agreed. "We can put a stick in his hand to make the wand," she said, because again, she wasn't offering up hers.
