When he woke up he shivered because for some reason it was substantially cold, Asura thought this was strange since it was around the middle of spring. He looked outside the window and saw small amounts of snow falling. He looked around and smelt the intense smell of alcohol in the air. Ruby was still asleep but completely encased in blankets, same as Weiss. He got closer to Yang who was on the top bunk and he realized that she absolutely reeked of alcohol. He looked on the other top bunk and saw that Blake was missing. He put on his black jacket and walked outside to see what was causing the snow. As he walked through the courtyard with the snow crunching beneath his boots, he saw small amounts of what seemed like steam rising from a tree. He crept up to the tree and looked up to see Blake in a black and purple jacket and winter clothes with her back turned to him. He squinted and saw the name of the book she was reading in the corner of the page she was on. "Ninja's of love huh? That sounds fun maybe I ought to go check it out sometime." Asura said making Blake jump. "What no I wasn't reading that nono." Blake said shutting her book and stuffing it into her jacket. "How are you so quiet?" She asked. "I dunno, just am." Asura replied before jumping up and getting into a crouching positon on a branch that was next to the one Blake sat on. "How is it snowing? No wait never mind I just realized." Asura said answering his own question. "What's causing it?" Blake said watching the snow peacefully fall from the sky. "It was the fireworks. I got ahead of myself and used them too much. The color they had too energy from the things around them. Since I used a lot of red with the first ones and the rose and red is most usually associated with heat, it took all the heat energy out of the sky and by guessing how much I used I say it'd be a week-long amount of snow." Asura pronounced answering Blake's question. "So simple fireworks caused this?" She asked. "Yep it's no big deal let's just hope it doesn't start stacking substantially." They sat there watching the snow fall and land on the ground with their breaths creating little clouds that rose through the tree leaves. "So what do you want to do?" Asura asked. "What?" Blake asked confused. "Well I mean I've hung out with Ruby and Yang, I want to see how a day with you and Weiss would be like." Asura said catching a snowflake in his hands. "Since this snow is magical it stops my teleportation back to my home so I'm stuck here until it leaves." "Well I don't really do anything besides read books. So I'm probably too boring for you." Blake said touching the book through her jacket. "Well if you love books so much then let's go down to the book store there has to be some there you haven't read yet." Asura said jumping down from the tree. "So come on kitty cat let's go."
Blake and Asura walked through the now snow covered streets with a few instances where they nearly slipped. Blake shivered slightly due to the cold. "Damn even with the jacket it's still so cold." Asura hearing this took of his jacket, leaving him in nothing but his shirt and vest, and put it over Blake. "Here put this on." Blake looked at Asura who just smiled and put it on. She was comforted by the small amount of heat that radiated from the jacket. "It's so soft. Won't you be cold?" Blake asked. "I'll manage." Asura replied before lighting up another black stick that emitted a pink smoke this time. "What's that?" Blake asked look slightly upwards towards Asura's face. "It's a black stick. It's not lethal in any way. When you light it, you think of something, food, drink, anything, and it tastes like whatever you thought of. Here try one." Asura said before pulling one out and handing it to Blake. She put it between her lips and Asura took out his lighter and lit it and watched as it emitted a brown colored smoke. "So what did you think of?" He asked. "Tea." Blake responded. "And it actually tastes like it too." Blake said. "What did you think of?" She asked. "I thought of cotton candy." Asura said making Blake smile thinking of if he liked sweets. They walked through the courtyard and greeted the occasional person walking out in the snow that gave Asura a weird look since he wasn't wearing a jacket. They knocked on the door to the bookstore named Tukson's Book Trade. The person that was behind the counter was a large man in a heavy jacket with sideburns. The man looked up when they first knocked and walked over to the door and unlocked it letting them in. "How can you stand that cold without a jacket?" The man asked. "It just doesn't bother me." Asura replied "We came to see if you might have any books that my friend here hasn't read yet." "Well my name is Tukson and this is my store. I have every book you'd ever want so please look around." Tukson said before walking back to the counter. Asura turned to Blake "Get any amount of books you want that you can find. Don't worry about the price." As those words left Asura's mouth Blake's yellow eyes gleamed with excitement and ran looking for books to get.
