"Just go into a dark place, close your eyes, clench your fists tight, and think of the exact moment you want to go to, and you will find yourself there." (About Time, 2013)

March 17th; Late afternoon; near mountain range; Patchy moderate snow; 23 ° F, -5 ° C.
If Quentin Connor had been human, he might have been an odd sight to see as he attempted to do just as the protagonist did in a movie he had recently seen. As it was, as a canine of moderate intelligence and decent composure, he sat with his back a little too straight, his digits pressed firmly into the frost, all while the snowstorm overhead sprinkled little white flakes over his red-tinged coat. It had been only an hour or so since the day had grown dark, overtaken by gray clouds and a chill in the air. His coat was still plush with the fur that had grown in for the winter and, at present, the freezing weather did little to bother him.
What did get under his skin, however, was when he finally cracked open his sunrise orange eyes. For just a fleeting second in the mock twilight, he saw it: the shape of a wolf walking east-bound before being blown away before he could even rake his eyes over its head and tail. A blink of an eye and it was all gone. His ears had perked up and one of his whiskered brows were raised as he was startled on his feet.
He mimicked the pose the ethereal wolf had taken, wondering if maybe he had actually tried to teleport or time travel to some other place and time... and this was ghost or a specter!
His eyes widened, despite not knowing what had happened in the years prior to the discovery and establishment of this side of the mountain range. The wind picked up once - which he immediately recognized as strange - then, all too soon, there was nothing but the silence that came with the falling snow. Quentin grimaced as he started to walk, pondering to himself as he went. Perhaps the snow spirit had meant to point him towards something he was supposed to find or to alert him to something that was on its way.
