 Post 3: Rolling into Winter Jupiter's Satellite
It was getting annoying to try to move, not too difficult, but the stickiness of the maple syrup was getting everywhere. Including her hair. It was a thin enough coating so she could still just barely see out of the clear shell in which she was contained. However, it certainly wasn't a pleasant experience! She tried to take another step but slipped and fell flat on her face. Sure it was sticky when she didn't want it to be, but the second she needed traction it turned into a slippery mess. Before she really hadn't minded the syrup, but now it was really getting on her nerves. It had started sluicing down the sides of the planet now and was covering her shoes with the substance. Seriously. This activity had something awful against her today!
The fourth year pressed forward, determined to get to the next season before she drowned in syrup. She was so determined and the syrup so thick that she nearly missed seeing the pendulum out of the corner of her eye. A frantic backpedal fixed that problem, but caused her to nearly run into another student! Definitely needed to get into the next season. She watched for the return pendulum and gooooooooooooooooooooooo!
She barely noticed as the syrup was replaced by flurries of snow and the temperature dropped suddenly. Why did she want to be in Winter again?
