[North had been having a rather exciting time making his way back from the castle. After catching him by surprise, the children had easily roped him into their game - hurling snowballs, evading them and even having a few of the children try to use his large body as a human shield. His poor red coat has seen more snow than in the North Pole at this rate.
Yet, North was caught off guard when he heard the cackle in the air and the odd sight of a skeleton twisting out of the way from an incoming snowball. A spirit? It had been North's first thought but he couldn't recognize this skeletal man so it wasn't from his world. Still, it was the only explanation he could think of to explain how easily the walking skeleton moved and talked.
So caught off guard that North hadn't noticed his own snowball miss the intended child entirely and head straight for the skeleton until he had already knocked out the poor man's head.]
Oops. [North ran over to the skeleton immediately. He wasn't too worried. The skull came off a little too easily for this to be the first time and he hadn't heard a cry of pain. Still though, snowball fight or not, he hadn't meant to take the man's HEAD off.] I am sorry for that. Did not expect to see... ah no matter. It was not my intention to make your head join with other snowballs. Ah! Here!
[Without much warning, he finds Jack's skull and carefully picks it up from the snow.]
Hmmm. He may know who this guy is. I don't know for sure >:)
