[This feed opens with ... trees. And lots of them. You get a nice view of the tree trunks and the snow covered ground, before the video tilts upwards, giving you a mostly clear sky and a cold-shining sun, the tree tops (the firs, the spruces, and all the barren ones) framing the moment nicely as a few bird pokémon fly across the sky.]

[Honestly? It does look beautiful, which Cooper brings to attention a few moments later, his voice all wistful behind the gear:]

Man ... look at those trees.

[Enjoy the trees and the snow and the sun for another few moments, network, before the feed is cut. Cooper is just giving you guys a view of little-things-to-be-happy-about.]


[Action if anyone is out in Ilex Forest! If you come across him, you’ll find him whittling. :D]

[Subaru is not one to appreciate the beauty of nature, these days, so he's a little confused.]

...is there something special about them?

[tapestodiane]

_{[Cooper will teach him how to appreciate little things so hard when he finds out.]}

I believe that question can be answered both ways. There is nothing special in the way the word is normally used, but they are incredible in every meaning of the word.

_[:D?]

[Subaru looks completely confused by this.]

What's so different than normal about them?

[video]

[tapestodiane]

_{[This grin, Subaru. You will see it and not be unaffected.]}

Nothing. And that's the beauty of it.

_{[He draws out the word 'beauty' just slightly, looking very happy with the world.]}

[um. They're special because they are not special? Subaru is not quite sure he understands.]

I'm... You like them because they're normal?

[video]

[tapestodiane]

Yes. _{[Coop's rarely had to explain these marvels before - people either understood or they looked at him strangely and left it at that. He's not used to putting it in words like this, but he's eloquent enough to pinpoint it:]}

Because incredible is their normal state of existence.

Trees are incredible? [he's still honestly baffled by this and feels slightly dense. he's capable of appreciating beauty, really! just... a little slow about it sometimes. especially with trees. he has a history with trees.]

[tapestodiane]

Most things are once you take the time to notice it.

_{[He tilts his head slightly to the side, looking at Subaru rather evenly.]}

Re: [video]

[Subaru blinks. That, he understands, at least.]

...In one way or another, I suppose they are.

[video]

[tapestodiane]

Exactly.

_{[Feeling like he's gotten his point across, there's the smile again.]}

I think I understand.
