Summary: “I was hoping we could just talk.”
Good Start
“Hey,” said Iris, coming into the lab.
Frost looked up, frowning. “Hey. You probably need Katie for something, I’ll just-”
“No, wait, I was looking for you.”
“Me?”
Iris smiled. “Yes, you.”
“What do you need frozen, then? Or who?”
“Nothing,” said Iris. “No one. I was hoping we could just talk.”
“Talk,” Frost repeated. “About what?”
“I don’t know. Anything. Everything, maybe, since you seem confused by the idea.”
Frost glared. “I know how to talk.”
“I know you do,” said Iris. “But you don’t, not to anyone besides Caitlin.”
“I’m Killer Frost,” the other woman said.
“Not anymore. And we want the chance to get to know you.” Iris smiled. “Any friend of Caitlin’s should be a friend of mine.”
Frost smiled back. “Katie does seem to like you. Maybe I should find out why.”
“There’s the spirit! How do you feel about wine and rom-coms?”
“Not a fan of the rom-coms,” said Frost. “But I do like wine.”
“Okay, then,” said Iris. “That’s a good start…”
