[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]

_{[Cooper is happy to see him take the time to look, having encountered far too many people who don't.]}

Not really. Winter is only part of the picture.

(He looks again at his own surroundings, as if trying to better see 'the picture' for himself.)

What you mean, is that you appreciate nature as a whole?

[tapestodiane]

I admire it. It definitely gives you a sense of perspective.

_{[There's a pause before he picks up his words again, just breathing the forest in.]}

It's where we came from. It's curious how we think we stand above it despite our dependance of it.

(Somewhat surprised by that broad remark, Arthur studies Dale curiously. Up until now he'd struck him as a very straight-forward, matter-of-fact personality.)

... How do we depend on it? If anything, it depends on us to take care not to accidentally set a fire and burn it all down.

Every object we need or own are originally from nature. Just think about it.

_{[He returns the look with a mirrored one. He knows this isn't obvious to a lot of people, but thinks it should be.]}

(He does think on it.)

...I suppose there's merit to that. (But he's not entirely sure what to do with the information. An appreciator of things philosophical in nature, Arthur is not. But just wait until they talk ethics.)

(video) haha I was so confused at first xD

[tapestodiane]

Truth typically holds merit.

_{[Cooper has his moments - basically, he's all about appreciating what he can. They need to discuss ethics and morals. They will agree very much, I imagine.]}
