Prompt 67-Snow

AN: Totally inspired by all the snow we got last night. Playing in it this morning was so much fun!

"What is it? My processors say it's water but..." Mirage asked. His optics were glued to the sky, transfixed on the fluffy white flakes that were falling to the ground.

"It's water. It's just frozen," Sideswipe replied. While they recharged, Oregon was covered in a thick blanket of sparkling white snow. Even now it continued to fall dusting the shoulders and helms of both mechs.

Mirage opened his mouth and caught a snowflake on his glossa. "So it is..." he murmured tasting the frozen droplet. "What are we going to do? We can't really drive in this..." As if to emphasize his statement he took a step forward, and nearly slipped in a patch of ice.

"No, but we don't have to," he replied catching Mirage by the elbow and holding him steady. "We can do all kinds of stuff with this...stuff." The Lamborghini bent down, cupped his hands, and scooped up a large hand full of snow. He compressed it in his hands forming a ball.

Mirage pat the mound of show he was currently working with, and scooped more snow into his hands. He added that snow pile and began to shape the snow. "Sideswipe, come look. I'm finished! It's not very good but..." Mirage stood up from the frozen ground and brushed white flakes from his amour.

"Nice," Sideswipe replied wrapping his arms around Mirage's shoulders. In front of him was a large sphere of snow with various intricate crevices and peaks. For being made of frozen water crystals, it was a fairly accurate model of Cybertron. He'd even formed a few other half-spheres to represent Cybertron's moons. "I finished another one too." He spun his bond mate around.

Over the course of the morning the pair had built many snow sculptures. There was a likeness of Red Alert propped right in front of a security camera. There were the remains of a snow seeker that Sideswipe had toppled, and a crude three-dimensional Autobot symbol.

But Sideswipe's latest snow creation amazed Mirage. Two white show mechs faced each other. Both were bent at the waist leaning in for a kiss. One had a rounded helm, a slender form, and a mini rocket launcher. The other had a square helm and his own rocket launcher made of snow. "Sideswipe...They're so...Cute."
