Happiest Time of the Year?
Who: Margulis, OPEN
What: The suffering of a fire user in winter.
When: Varies by prompt
Where: Mostly indoors, except for once...
Warnings: Nothing expected unless people poke at backstory. Mmmmmaybe violence in the form of sparring?
[Cabin Fever] (1/9-1/19)
[Going into the mountain was, honestly, a poor life choice on Margulis' part. The cold had worn on him, and left him sore and scarce for days as he recovered. Even now, the harsh weather makes it painful to go out and forcibly limits his training to the gym.
For someone like Margulis, this is a problem. As the weather grows colder, he gets more impatient. He can't use fire indoors, so his practice in the gym is swordplay and martial arts only...and increasingly frequent, to the point where people might wonder how he isn't wearing himself out. The library, usually when he's at his calmest, sees him tense and restless, tapping the fingertips of his clawed gloves against the table or shifting in place. A couple times, he even ends up taking over one of the kitchens to make curry so spicy it might make people's eyes water just from smelling it.
Winter is really not his favorite time of year.]
[Bah Humbug] (1/20)
[While most people are celebrating the holidays, Margulis...is not. He spends the day of the party in the library, sitting with an even larger pile of books than usual. For once, his usually difficult to read expression is visibly sour, practically glaring at what he's reading. Something, it seems, doesn't sit well with him...]
[One Man Snowplow] (1/31)
[After how bad just the cold was, you'd think Margulis wouldn't even be going to the annex while it's snowing, right? Well, you'd be wrong. With the snow piling up, he's out in a heavy coat and a scarf, creating a path between the station and surrounding buildings. Though, the fact that he's using controlled fire to do so might be helping him tolerate the cold a bit...except when the wind is blowing from the opposite direction.]

There's even some specifics about how they function compared to ordinary weapons that supports such a theory, though that delves into structures I've yet to see evidence of existing outside of my own world.

Curious indeed...

It's. Seriously weird, honestly.
