Sixth Scale - Visual/Action if you want to?? - Forward dated to dawn, tomorrow morning
[The scroll opens up to the sight of a snow fort. A rather large snow fort, really. To call it ornate would be far too kind, although it does range in what you could call complex. Its 'main' room seems to be the size of a moderately sized tree-house, and it's raised somewhat off the ground by a pillar of ice. It has a few smaller pillars with single 'rooms' on top of them, with the thing 'connected' together by a snow fence. It isn't exactly the sturdiest looking thing, considering it's all ice and snow, but it's impressive in its own sophomoric way. It also happens to be in the middle of the town, casting not an imposing shadow so much as an obnoxious and inconsiderate one. The thing is really more in the way of traffic and business than it is anything.
Considering how fast the construction was and the size of it, someone must have been up all night working on it. And they were.]
So. You see that? I made that.
[Pokey's heard before he's seen, turning the scroll towards him, his beady blue eyes dark and near red from exhaustion. Still, he's grinning like an obnoxious little jerk all the while.]
And, with it, I declare myself the king of winter, and the middle of town I guess. Doesn't matter what you call me so long as you call me 'sir', considering the middle of town is mine now. Don't worry, you don't have to pay a fee or anything to me, I'm that nice a guy. You just have to remember and talk about how great I am. How smart I am. How no one but me, Pokey Minch, could've done this.
I guess you could try and knock it down, but it'd probably be better to wait until spring. Thing is impenetrable, so you all better just deal with it.
[C'mon. Come on. Someone come try and knock it down, mess with him, get into a snowball fight or something or assault the thing. Even just come get angry at him. He's so bored and having maxed out the creation powers Mayfield left with its survivors has tired him even more, to the point of restlessness.
Do something. He is so damn bored it isn't funny.]
Oh. Hey. Bear. Offer still stands if you want to come run this with me. You can be co-ruler, or prince, or whatever of town square.

[Action]
Pokey pauses for a moment at the sigh. He takes a moment before turning around, and shrugging.]
She's a bear. I'm kind of surprised you're not snoring your stupid fuzzy butt off either. It won't last forever.
...She'll be okay. And back.
[Action]
[One day Teddie will learn that polar bears don't actually hibernate. Of course he's the one bear that doesn't.
Shaking of his sadness, he returns his attention back on the buckets.]
So tell meeeee~ What's the plan you got going on here?
[Action]
[He picks a bucket up, as if showing it to Teddie for the first time, as if Teddie had never even seen one before.
Does he need to really explain the buckets in more detail to you Teddie?]
[Action]
[Defending. Teddie can do defending. Now that Pokey's showed him his special attack, he might as well show him his. ...Not that he hasn't already, but Kamui makes a second appearance as Teddie summons him once more. The larger bear stands behind him, taking a very obvious battle ready stance.]
And I'll be backup!
Re: [Action]
[Maybe he'll graduate to hoses next.
Still, he smiles. Man, you're weird bigger...bear monster thing is so cool. He'd almost forgotten how much.]
That's the plan. That, and accept tribute. Someone's already bringing some.
[Clearly they're very important guys getting very important things after all.]
[Action]
Oh-ho, a tribute? You mean...like a beautiful princess~?
[Teddie calls dibs.]
Re: [Action]
...Now if they're fighting over you maybe it's different.
[Action]
[NOTHING SAYS TRUE LOVE LIKE CHANGING YOUR SPECIES.]
I doooo think we need more girls in our club, though. It's no fun when it's only us hot studs.
[Action]
Eh, maybe. I mean hey I don't know why they aren't breaking down the walls to join already, but once they do I'm fine with it. It's only a matter of time, you ask me.
[Action]
[He does stop though, thankfully, and begins to examine said walls himself.]
I bet it's 'cause they're just too impressed. I mean, I wouldn't wanna knock down this sorta craftsmanship, it'd be a crime to!
[Action]
protip he is.]Exactly. See, too many girls are going to just look at it and marvel at it. Which, you know, they should. It's a national treasure like no one has ever seen before.
But it's the girl who tries to knock it down that's special. Like that's the one you want to look out for.
[Action]
[How...how else would they knock down the wall?
...It's bear logic, no one said it was any good.]
[Action]
[And when she breaks through, you end up getting surprised by how kind they are, when they get through your walls, a kindness sometimes only you see and understand because of how much of you that you see reflected in them, although a much better you.
Crap. This is getting too personal, even if just in his thoughts, and he doesn't want to talk about it right now.]
They're just cool, bear! You don't get it.
[He looks away, and needs to distract himself. Absentmindedly, he looks down and to the side, over the edge...and then smiles.
Someone is passing under.
Smirking, Pokey takes one of the buckets and prepares to dump it on whoever is passing by the wall of the fort, to catch them off guard.
It'll be funny, and it'll keep him from thinking too hard about people he misses. It's a win-win!]
[Action]
[He elbows Pokey playfully.]
You're describing your dream girl, aren'tcha? A big strong girl with giant hooves who can knock down any wall! Not a maiden who sits around for her prince, you bearfer the warrior princess types who take matters into their own hands. ...Or giant hooves, in this case. This has been a test this whole time, hasn't it? How alluring~
[He then notices Pokey grabbing the bucket, throwing his arms into the air, cheering him on in the only way Teddie knows how. Embarrassingly.]
Do it! Pour your buckets of love!
[Action]
[Embarrassing, maybe, but Pokey can't really be embarrassed by it. To him Teddie is just kind of hysterical in the way he behaves and acts, and it's partially because of his attention returning to the bear and from the playful nudge that Pokey's bucket pour just barely misses the pony he was aiming for, allowing the civilian to luckily flee before Pokey can try again.
It doesn't really matter, Pokey guesses. He's sure there'll be other ponies.]
Not sure what you think it was a test of, but I guess you passed it just by the miracle that you were right on what you guessed for once. Guess I trapped myself there, since girls seems to be the one think you actually think about.
[Why bother denying it? In the end, as he thinks on it more?
If there's stuff he's embarrassed about in regards to Mayfield, it certainly isn't that he liked a girl there.]
[Action]
[And he can't think of any girl dragons aren't here, so clearly Pokey likes 'em with big feet.]
...Wait just a second, I was right?!
Re: [Action]
[Dammit Teddie he was talking about metaphorical walls when he was talking about girls, but it's going to be a pain to explain that.]
I already said 'yes' once. You're not getting a medal for it or anything.
