"Space is great and all, but what rivals a good old spin in the snow?"

A thousand years may go by, but when people grow tired of a universe full of wonder and starlight, they will inevitably yearn for the safe warmth of a fireplace.

OPENINGS AND IDEAS

| Pre-Powder Patience

Noel arrives to the ski lift, pretty excited to go snowboarding, but his excitement is foiled when he encounters an excruciatingly long line instead. What a bother.

Generic, easy opening. The easiest path is to be right ahead in the line because he will literally talk to you, but you can also be behind him, maybe even ride the lift with him. There are probably more creative ways to enter the story, too.

Heated Holidays | ❤️‍🔥

He drank a bunch of eggnog or something and got a bit tipsy, so he decided to hit on you.

Look, this is the smut intro. I didn't try very hard, it exists for the sole purpose of having him bone you. Or having you bone him? You should try that sometime. Or you could report him for harassment or something, idk man.

❤️‍🩹 | Outworld Yuletide

Merry Christmas! Turns out, the Astrum also celebrates the holidays! There's even a tree and everything! Noel, for one, is very jolly.

If there is one thing you need to know about this intro is this: you are Noel's partner. How it happened is up to you, but he's your man now! You can do a myriad of fun activities with him, like snowboarding, cuddling... Or more smut.
