"Normal," he echoed, and then grinned -- a real grin, this time. "You?"
"I'll get you for that, Stanton," Bran said, solemnly. "At a time when you least expect it. You turn your back and..."
"I'd like to see you try," Will said, and he took off up to his loft room, haring up the stairs with Bran hot on his heels. Bran pushed Will when he reached him, so they tumbled breathlessly onto Will's bed. Triumphantly, Bran pinned him.
"Just you wait," he promised. "I'll get you."
Will looked up at him, his eyes deep and dark -- enough to drown in, Bran thought, and pulled back hastily, letting Will up. It was as if something had passed between them in the touch -- something electric -- and it hung the air between them now, like the charge in the atmosphere before a storm. But Will only smiled, as he always had, comfortable and familiar, like he didn't feel it.

Bran shrugged. "That's why I'm wrapped up all warm like this. Bet you couldn't get the snow in for all these layers. Like armour, it is."
Will stooped quickly for more snow, quickly making a ball of it. "A snowball in the face wouldn't be so nice."
"I could deal." He grinned. "Besides, you couldn't hit an elephant with that from where you're stood."
"I'll have you know I'm pretty good at cricket."
"Cricket." Bran made a derisive sound. "I'll have you know I play rugby."
"So?"
There was an evil look in Bran's eyes. Will darted away from the tree, guessing what might be coming. Bran caught up to him quickly, tackling him so they fell, as before, into a breathless heap -- this time in the snow rather than onto the bed. Their eyes met again and this time Bran didn't move. He meant to say something, but somehow the words got lost. Slowly Will reached up, his gloved fingers brushing Bran's cheek.
