It's nice and toasty in the igloo.. [18+] [NV and AK]

Aiden sighed as he sat in his igloo, which was actually rather spacious on the inside unlike how it appeared on the out. There was no bed, but a variety of well-cleaned skins laid about the circular room, and there was even a little area where he kept food. Various decorations like horns and animal head hung on the walls.. somehow not bringing the whole thing down in the process. In the center was a nice little cooking fire, on which he was currently boiling what looked to be a pot of.. animal.. innards. He didn't like to waste any part of an animal.. no sir.

His trusty Alaskan Malamute pup, Arrluk, sat curled up near the entrance, which was sealed from the outside world by a bearskin 'door' flap over it.

As cozy as it was.. Aiden was quite bored all alone. His dog excluded. Not a lot of people wanted to hike out into the middle of a barren snowy wasteland, surprisingly. .. Why the hell did he build it here again? Well.. there was a nice aurora, or northern light, that popped up every night. That nearly made it worth it.

Nearly.

Wylde gasped and pulled his heavy jackets around him. His teeth chattered, his skin practically turning blue. He had heard that Aiden was lonely, so he came to visit (with a bag of cards and plenty of alcohol.) However.... he was used to the desert, so the cold was a bit too much for him.

When he located the other's igloo, he practically threw himself at it.

Arrluk began freaking out as soon as Wylde poked his head through the door. The little pup wasn't quite used to visitors yet. The malamute cowered under a pile of furs, barking and whimpering wildly.

Aiden look up and grinned at the appearance of Wylde, trying to keep the surprise off his face. "Wylde! You're the last person I'd expect to visit," he said, grinning broadly. It wasn't hard to tell how cold he was, so Aiden picked up a nice, warm fur and wrapped it around his shoulders, leading him away from the door and over towards where the fire was burning.

"What brings you here, brother?"

I got b-bored." He answered, his teeth chattering loudly. He pulled the fur tighter ariound himself.

"I appreciate the visit, even if it's only out of boredom." He continued smiling broadly. "You're not very used to the cold, are you? Here." He took off his thick fur-lined jacket, lifting the fur off of his brother for a moment before putting the jacket on him, which was probably a bit too large for him. "That'll keep you nice and toasty."
Aiden himself now only word a long-sleeved white shirt, but the cold didn't seem to be bothering him in the slightest.

"Don't you get cold?" Wylde asked, cocking his head curiously. "It looks like you would..." He was finally getting a bit more comfortable heat-wise.

"It's a little chillier, but not by much. I'm pretty used to be cold by now.. don't know how long I'd last in a desert, though. At night, sure.. but in the morning.. I'd fry." He leaned down and went back to stirring the pot of various animal bits, before getting a ladel and pours some of it into a bowl. ".. Want some?"

"I'll try anything once." He said, shrugging and scooting closer to the other male.

Aiden smiled and handed his brother the bowl and a spoon, then turned to make himself a bowl. He eagerly began eating, spooning up chunks of stuff in some kind of weird dark brown broth. Didn't look too appitising, but he seemed to be enjoying it.
