[Parvati and Siffrin have just started on clearing snow in this corner of town, but so far they're doing pretty well! Siffrin's paws are passable for tunneling, you can't say Parvati isn't a hard worker, and the two even have ways to deal with slippery layers of ice when they uncover it. (Siffrin zaps it with bolts of lightning to get it melting, and if that doesn't work - well, Parvati can always just shatter it!)]
[The rhythm of their work is interrupted when a door they've just finished clearing out opens, and a Dewott leans out. He's wringing his hands nervously.] Thank you! But, um, could you take a look at the roof too? I swear I keep hearing it creak, and I'm worried about all the ice and snow on it...
[There's nothing wrong with the request in and of itself, but...]
[Siffrin looks at the roof, which is clearly very far overhead and out of reach - they wouldn't have a chance of jumping up there even if it weren't icy. They look at Parvati, equally way too short to reasonably reach. Then they look back at the Dewott with a smile that seems just a bit sharp around the edges.] Sure, we'll get right to it!
[Though... the next place Siffrin glances is Parvati's hammer. Very speculatively.]
