But seeing how uneasy Snow Snorlax looked, with those huge hands it had nowhere to put, Heath wisely abandoned the idea of having Snow Snorlax play games with him. After all, a playing card probably felt like a tiny leaf in its enormous hands, much like O'Neal drinking bottled water as though it were a little blue vial.
"The big guy looks really upset." Zorua rubbed her swollen belly, then sat up and glanced at Snow Snorlax. Snow Snorlax hung its head uneasily. It was clearly feeling guilty, seemingly blaming itself for making such a loud noise earlier.
Seeing Snow Snorlax like this, Heath couldn't help rubbing its big belly. Its belly felt very cool, like touching ice, but it wasn't terribly cold, more like a mound of snow.

Snow Snorlax froze for a moment, then immediately nodded. When Heath had mentioned it before, it had developed a strong interest in the impressive-sounding Lion's Roar Technique. It hadn't expected to be able to start learning it now.
