action, January 30th/31st
[Okay, but has everyone forgotten that there's snow outside and Anonymous is setting up all kinds of amazing things? Dogsled races! Dips in the ridiculously cold ocean among the icebergs! Free hot chocolate! Chekov, being his own boss, gives himself both days off on account of all of the misery accumulated throughout the rest of January. There's nothing like some bracing winter excitement to lift the spirits.
Shut up, he's Russian.
He makes the most of both days. Dogsled racing on the thirtieth? Yep, he's there, hanging on for dear life and trying to remember which words the dogs respond to. (He doesn't win, but he makes it across the finish line with no injuries that require hospitalization, so he considers himself victorious.) Polar bear swim on the thirty-first? Why not! Chekov is practically obligated to participate! His plan to outlast everyone else braving the icy ocean waters fails when an inability to feel his limbs complicates doggy-paddling, but it was fun while it lasted.
Chekov barely sets foot indoors. He can be found almost anywhere in the City, running or starting snowball fights or watching moonlight sparkle on the snow after the sun sets. It's two days of enjoying the City without worrying about disappointing anyone or dwelling on those who have left. Chekov thinks that he has earned it.]
[ooc: Open action for either day!]

action;
She's just gotten out from her polar bear swim, shivering just a bit but otherwise looking rather...refreshed? She's got a towel on, and she waves to him in the water.]
Pavel!!
You want me to grab you a towel for when you get out?
[She's totally going back in later. The cold is bracing, its awesome.]
action;
Anya, hello! I would appreciate that, yes.
[The worst part of swimming in icy water is, of course, getting out. Somehow, the air always manages to feel colder than the water.]
action;
How long have you been in there for?
action;
Eh... long enough to be concerned about the welfare of my toes and fingers, I think.
