[Greetings, everyone. Not that you can expect many greetings right now, since for some reason there is a crying teenage girl being shown on video.]

I... I lost?! To a snowman?! How could I lose to a snowman of all things?! They can't even breathe!

[Yes, this is clearly the most terrible thing that could ever happen, for she is bawling.]

You shouldn't underestimate snowmen.

[ it was an honorable loss... or something. ]

How did he even do that?! It was like he had no blind spots! I couldn't even land a single hit on the guy! And his eyes were cold as ice!

[Why yes, I am having too much fun with this.]

Just make a plan and try kicking its ass again.

The first rule of battle is to stay cool and collected... Snowmen are experts at that.

[ he supposes?? ]

Hmm... That does make sense, but it doesn't sound quite right for some reason...

[Video]

[dog-in-training.livejournal.com]

That makes sense! I'll definitely do that! There's no way I'll lose twice!

[Oh no, poor thing. She feels kind of bad and she doesn't even understand why you'd want to fight a snowman in the first place.]

It's okay! I don't think I could ever beat a snowman!

But it's so vexing! How could I lose to something that doesn't even have hands?!

Are you going to have a rematch?

Snowmen are usually very big, aren't they? Um, I suppose all the extra weight would make it stronger, even without hands... I'm not sure.

Of course! The Kawakami Soul says that you only lose once you give up! Even if you're covered in blood and dirt! Even if the whole world's abandoned you! You don't give up!

He's not just big! He's actually really fast, too. I didn't manage a single hit on him.

But they don't have legs either. What an odd snowman.

[dog-in-training.livejournal.com]

I know, right? It's really weird.

I could certainly never fight that snowman then! The kissing one was... a little better, but...

That's pretty extreme... but you're going to have to do special training if you don't want to lose again.

[histories]

A fighting snowman? There's so many varieties of these snowmen, aren't there?

Are you hurt?

Did the snowman do battle with you?

[Her snowman seemed rather harmless and only liked flattering her. So she's kind of confused.]

[dog-in-training.livejournal.com]

Of course! Special training is my specialty, after all!

[dog-in-training.livejournal.com]

I'm fine. He didn't make a single attack the entire time. He just blocked every single one of my attacks like he wasn't even trying, and once I was all tired out, he said I wasn't even worth fighting and left! That's even worse!

video;

[dog-in-training.livejournal.com]

...In a matter of speaking? He challenged me to a battle, and when I fought him, he blocked every single attack, saying I was too slow to ever match him. After about an hour of that, he said I wasn't even worth fighting and left!

[dog-in-training.livejournal.com]

Huh? K-Kissing ones?! There are snowmans going around and k-k-kissing people?!

[histories]

He hadn't made a single attack...? What made you decide to fight him, then?

[dog-in-training.livejournal.com]

Because he challenged me?

[Yes, it really is that simple to her.]

What kind of special training are you going to do...?
