Rahne Sinclair has posed:
    It's a chilly, brisk evening; in the mid-forties, out in Westchester. Of course, cool weather isn't something to bother Rahne Sinclair too much. The girl's sitting out in the backyard, out near the edge of the woods. She's carefully made a little fire pit of rocks, and a cheery little flame is popping and crackling within. She's busily humming, while doing something with some branches, seeming to be in a good mood.

Danielle Moonstar has posed:
    Stepping from the woods is everyones favorite Cheyenne woman, Danielle Moonstar. In her arms are a small gathering of logs and snapped sticks for wood. Her breath puffs into the air softly as she steps toward Rahne's little fire pit. "I love days like this. Reminds me of the mountain air up in the Rockies. Though I still think it is wrong to call the hills near here as mountains." She will approach Rahne and sets down to set the wood nearby. "Should we get some food or anything else?" Her friend given a small warm smile, as Rahne's good mood is easy for her to pick up.

Rahne Sinclair has posed:
    Rahne looks up, and smiles. "If we had some marshmallows, might be nice. Thanks for the extra gathering." She's weaving thin branches together into a circle, using string to tie them up, and then doing it again, making circles about a foot in diameter. "Unless you've anything else in mind. Somethin' to snack on or the like."

Danielle Moonstar has posed:
    "You're welcome." Gathering wood is no problem at all for Dani. "What are you working on there anyway?" Getting to spend time with one of her best friends is always a good way to pace a day, especially outside with weather like this! She glances to the building and then to the wood. "Well we could go in and raid the kitchen, but that isn't exactly our style is it?" Dani's head tips to the wood, her braid swinging in front of her shoulder. "We could always hunt."

Rahne Sinclair has posed:
    "Wreaths, of course." Rahne seems in a better mood than she often is. "It's Christmas, after all! I figured it'd be a nice thing t' make wreaths for everyone at the mansion." She smiles.

    "Also, I dinnae think we can hunt for marshmallows. The rare wild s'more has nae been seen at the mansion for some time."

Danielle Moonstar has posed:
    "I should have realized," Dani's smile growing a bit as she watches her redheaded friend. "I think it's the evergreen on the cold air that I think of most with the holidays. The smell of winter." She knows Rahne's nose is intensely sharp. "Do you need a bit of help at all, or want to do it yourself." She laughs at the joke of marshmallows, "No. They went extinct after the great hunt of '03."

Rahne Sinclair has posed:
    Rahne laughs. "If y' want to help, feel free! I dinnae know what y' usually do for Christmas. But I can show y' how to put a wreath together, if y' like."

She starts to slowly display the technique, making the circle, then tying the little fir branches to it.

Danielle Moonstar has posed:
    "There isn't a whole lot of usual on the holidays for me." Despite that she doesn't loose of her smile. "I wouldn't mind seeing how you do it. Besides it only seems that you should get a wreath as well. You're going to all the effort of making them for everyone else." Dani will crouch near Rahen and is quiet for a while as she just follows the techniques of doing this.

Rahne Sinclair has posed:
    The Scots girl smiles. She shows Dani the way of it, and looks over to her. "Once y' get the basic branches on, y' can spruce 'em up with some berries, or ribbons..whatever looks nice. An' I was gonna make one for my own door too, but I'm happy t' have one from my friend instead!"

Danielle Moonstar has posed:
    "Maybe some edible treats to hide on it as well. Nothing like a decoration that is also a snack right?" Dani will reach over to add a bit to the fire and stoke it up some. "You planning on camping out here tonight?" She will absolutely make one for Rahne but not in front of the other girl. "I think we should go get a tent set up and make a day of it for us."

Rahne Sinclair has posed:
    That gets a grin from Rahne. "That's the third time y' mentioned food. I think yer hungry." She shakes her head at the rest. "Nae, I just didnae wanna get pine needles all over the house. And maybe later tonight. But for now, we clearly need tae get you some food." She moves to stand, and to start towards the house. "C'mon!"

Danielle Moonstar has posed:
    "Guilty. I was on a long walk and think I worked up an hunger." Dani nods to the wood they have. "This should be safe enough. WE can save the firewood for tonight and go inside and get some food." The tall dark haired woman stands and moves to her shorter friend to give her a warm smile and quick hug. "I'm just glad I found you."

Rahne Sinclair has posed:
    Rahne gives Dani a quick hug in return. "No like that's ever that hard for you. C'mon, then. Let's be about it." And with that, the two head inside for food.
