"Did I mention that was by far one of the best presents I've ever gotten? Because I think you had already conked out by then." Adrian said with a small smile as he carried a small bag of his shed feathers to the nearest garbage can.

"I probably did conk out by then, because I don't remember it." Amaya said with a smile as she kissed his cheek. "I'm glad you enjoyed it." She laughed, looking at the bag now.

"It was with you, there's no way I couldn't have enjoyed it." Adrian said with a smile as he dropped the bag in the trash.

She grinned but stretched as she looked outside. "We should go for a walk in the snow." She murmured, looking at the snow fall against the city lights. It was a perfect way to end Christmas, the three of them together, taking a scenic walk through the city.

"We never did test my snow angel theory." Adrian said with a grin. "I'll have the best looking snow wings you've ever seen, I'm sure."

"And then you'll catch a cold and I'll get to deal with you all of New Year." Amaya teased, pulling on her coat and boots now. "Calista, come on. We're going for a walk." She called.
Calista came in a minute later, pouting a bit. "But mommy, I wanted to play more." She whined.
"You can play tomorrow. We're going for a walk. You still have all your break to play." Amaya told her firmly, trying to keep her from throwing a fit.
"Fine..." Calista mumbled, getting her coat and boots on now, though she was still visibly irritated.

"You can always play in the snow." Adrian suggested with a smile. "I'm sure we can find a good spot to stop and build a snowman, have a snowball fight, and any other snow related antics you can think of."

Calista only crossed her arms over her chest and stomped over to the door.
Amaya rolled her eyes, but opened the door and nudged Calista out, waiting until Adrian got out to shut and lock the door. Once they were out, they all went downstairs and outside, Amaya smiling the moment they were out in the cold.

"Maybe your present should have waited until after we came back. I could use the extra feathers in this weather." Adrian muttered to Amaya with a smile.

"Well, we had time. You'll just have to flap occasionally to keep them warm." Amaya said with a grin, shoving her hands in her pockets as she watched Calista slowly transition from angry and pouting to happy and running too far ahead to catch snowflakes with her tongue.

"If you want me to lift off, sure." Adrian said folding his wings back and shivering slightly. "I can't wait until someone makes a fashion line for mutates. You know, wing covers for winter, shirts with holes already made, and other such pre-made adjustments for all the extra appendages. Lord knows my handiwork is crap." Sure enough, the holes he'd cut out in all his shirts and his jacket were less than perfect and could barely be considered round.

"Actually I've made a few designer friends who could probably solve that problem for you." Amaya told him as she looked over her shoulder at him. "They're mutates as well, but they were always into fashion, so some of them just happened to find ways to use their powers to do what they like. I had to get them to make a few special things for me with this damn arm ripping shirts half the time when I try to put them on." She said, now looking down at her arm, which did have spikes on it still when she wasn't paying attention.

"I would've thought you'd have gotten it under control by now." Adrian said with an amused smile as he moved to her side and holding her shadowy hand.

"Not early in the morning. I forget sometimes." Amaya replied, laying her head on his shoulder.

"Well if I ever wake up with any new mystery scars I know who to blame." Adrian joked with a smile before looking up at the gently falling snow. "Have you had any other white Christmases since you got here? I'm curious to know if mother nature knew what was coming and saved it for us. It's funny just how much more romantic it is when you dust everything with snow."
