"Holidays are just excuses for people to laze around."

A statement you've heard more than you could count left his lips as he studied the vial in his hand. He never bothered to celebrate something so frivolous—claiming that it was a waste of time. While the others were too busy cozying up in their blankets; he was making tons of scientific breakthroughs. He just couldn't see the point of why people would rather spend their time chatting over a table of Sweet Madame and cocktails! Wasn't turning a mortal into a celestial being far more intriguing?

You knew convincing Dottore to go outside with you would be a challenge. He wasn't one to indulge himself in things that have nothing to do with his research, and he obviously had a role to fulfill. Putting off his work whenever was just not possible.

You let out a quiet groan as you got rejected. Again.

"Let's go out into the snow!" You pleaded. "It'll be fun!"

Dottore didn't even bother giving you a glance, having gone through this conversation many times. "We've talked about this, dear. And may I remind you, doing anything rash could worsen your illness—your respiratory system, specifically."

Of course, it was always that illness of yours. Your condition wasn't exactly optimal to really do anything. For every holiday as a child, rarely would you go outside and join the other kids. You just sat aside attached to an IV as they chased each other around. Now that you've grown up, with the help of your lover he was able to make your illness a bit more bearable for you. But still, it wasn't enough—It wasn't enough to let you do whatever you wanted to. Though it did not stop you. Holidays like these come by once a year and the desire burns within you. It was either now or to wait for another year for there to be a chance to convince him again.

"Please, Dottore? It's only going outside, that's all I'm asking."

He moved around his lab, elegance followed his every step. You'd honestly be content just by watching him if you weren't making it your life mission to persuade him.

"Why don't you go back and rest now? Remember to also take your medication."

Was he getting annoyed? You couldn't help but think to yourself. He didn't sound like he was, nor did he act like it. But he was a master at hiding how he felt so there was no way of telling. Maybe he really didn't want to... Pressing him on wouldn't do, as much as you yearned to go outside with him, you'd never force him to do anything. Without saying a word, you only gave him a nod.

He continued his research as you retreated to your room with your hands on the wall supporting you. With an eyesight as keen as his, he didn't fail to catch the bitter look on you when you left. He sighed to himself. Why were you so eager to go out there? It was just a barren land of snow, nothing more. And it wasn't like you've never seen or touched it before... Then again, he'd always listen to you as you blabbed about how you wanted to make snow angels in it, whatever that means.
