Gasping with surprise and delight, the youth couldn't help the way his arms suddenly surged over his head in celebration. "HECK YEAH!" He called, jumping a few times. He had never had that much success over Ravenna or Margot in all their play fights, so to see how effective he was against the vampire gourds -- well, he couldn't wait to brag to them -- AND HE HAD WITNESSES.
Sah was ready for business, though, and as the gourds scampered away he gave their next set of instructions. Straightening his jacket, Marcus nodded and headed over to the gems. He took off his outer layer of mittens to display his hands covered in thin, wool gloves. Better for dexterity, but still warm against Halo's air. He turned the first bag of stones and gems upside down, spilling the contents over the ice and snow.
When the young--though deceivingly in a grown body--demigod came over, Marcus turned his full attention to him. "Well I am sure you will soon. Deimos loves them." He said, a bright smile breaking across his features that made a mischievous glint sparkle in his eye. "But if you don't want your first snowball fight to be against Deimos, you can always come play with me and my sister and my cousin."
