Who: Anyone!
What: Time to gather some meteors!
When: Early/Mid January are the most likely, but anytime in January
Where: In dem hills
Warnings: Snow...
Puella had been keeping an eye on the meteor shower that was supposed to happen for quite some time. How could she not? This was exactly the kind of stuff she lived for. But it was an event that just kept getting better. Not only could she see a bunch of stars at one time, but a bunch of them fell in the mountains, and the school was outright encouraging anyone to go get them. To keep.
Puella got to own real stars of her very own. Who cares about the Anvil - these were going into a personal collection!
It did not take much effort at all to get her to climb up into the peaks to search for where ever those meteorites had landed. Luckily she came prepared for the job - it was kind of rushed but she put together a child sized mining cap with some enchants to locate rare ores. It should lead her to the good stuff. You know, kind of off the track and where the snowbanks had been growing. It's a damn good thing she did bring a mining cap because most of that snow was probably taller than she was, and she pretty much sank right in.
...And also that she was wearing a cloak that always kept her warm. That, that probably helped a ton too.
Every so often she could be seen hoping in the snow to get around or borrowing deeper. Sometimes popping up unexpectedly to startle people. Yes this was a very serious mission but it was slowly turning into a time to play too. Snow is generally supposed to be fun!
"Hii there~!"

Hibiki does not lower herself to explaining this, however. Because things are rising instead. Like steam. And her temper.
“SILENCE THAT TUMULTUOUS RACKET!” she snaps. Her head is ringing. She can’t see straight. Something is....! Something in the near vicinity is.....!! “WHAT EVEN IS THAT RUCKUS?!”
no subject
"...What, you mean this?" she motioned to the cap. That was probably it. That was the only thing different.
"It's my special star detector!"
It's cool, right??
no subject
Assuming it's possible for human physiology to work that way. But what has she said previously about genius and the impossible?
"A STAR DETECTOR DISRUPTIVE TO LIVING STARS IS COUNTERPRODUCTIVE! TURN IT OFF IMMEDIATELY!"
Ando raises his eyes above their meteor stash. "Maa-ster Hibiki, I believe the child meant--"
"DON'T CONTRIBUTE, ANDO!"
Thus is the butler silenced, after a soft, contrite bleat. Now all that remains is for the child to follow suit.
no subject
"But if I turn it off, I won't find any stars of my own..."
She looks closer at the basket, even if she has to lean slightly out of Hibki's way.
And then points at it.
"Unless I can have some of those."
no subject
She'll have an answer for the kid, no worries. But right now, she needs a moment to comprehend that's a thing that just happened. It does not, you see. To her.
Ando considers this situmaa-tion. Then he, and his basket of Top Class Meteors, begin sliding backwards. How far does he have to go before the storm in Maa-ster Hibiki's heart may be soothed.....?
no subject
"N...no..." she's probably not even completely sure what that word means, honestly.
"It's just that...I came all the way here to find some, and you got a lot right there."
More than enough that missing a couple shouldn't matter much, right?
"And they are pretty."

Does she not even know--
hibiki/2
Ando, maa-nwhile, has continued to slide backwards. His pace seems insufficient, though, so he sets the basket down on a nearby patch of ice and pushes it.
The meteors are now sliding away! Perhaps they're simply leaving range, but perhaps they're also fair game?
no subject
Puella only finally looked over again (And to ignore Hibiki's tantrum) to see that the meteors are slipping out of everyone's reach. Or so it seemed.
Suddenly Puella just poofed out of existence. Hibiki did want her gone right? Although she did leave behind purple particles of stars and space glitter as she vanished. That was probably normal.
"Okay!" she speaks up, only this time a yard or so away from them, sliding down the slope backwards with the meteor basket with her
There is no need to hunt for any more, not when she has this.

And too many weird little steaming puddles from spilled and spewed tea.
