Ariadne • 003 • Skating Party!

[buildingreality]

Who all of Somarium!
Where Lake Meridian!
Style first!
Status open like my arms!

[when Ariadne discovered that the lake was frozen over quite solidly for the winter, she had told herself that she would have to go skating at least once. Of course, she didn't really want to go alone, and as much fun as just going with Arthur and Eames would

Feel free to notice the Unicorn milling around the lake.

[unique_remorse]

[ It had been hard not to notice the commotion going on at the lake. For the most part Unicorn had kept to her forest since her arrival, but it was starting to seem more and more likely that she was not going to wake up any time soon from this odd dream. Hence she ventures out to see what the hullabaloo is.

[She lingers around the edge of the lake, watching the various people.]

[mudbloodhater]

[Draco spots her out of the corner of his eye, glancing over subtly. He remembers her and her rather standoffish mannerisms. he doesn't say anything; he just watches her for a long moment, almost wary.]

[unique_remorse]

[ Unicorn turns her head to look at the blond haired boy. Her head tilts curiously. She's used to the stares but for some reason something feels a little different about this one. She wouldn't be surprised if this was one of the people who supposedly knew her from before.

It was all rather strange to her still. ]

[mudbloodhater]

[it was indeed one of those. Draco continues staring, frowning slightly before tentatively approaching.]

I thought you'd gone.

[fiveminutefail]

[So he's trying his damn hardest to skate, but he's fumbling pretty badly trying to keep his balance. He's determined, though, to learn how. Blue Rose would probably like to skate with him, and Bunny used to skate when he was younger... not to mention, his daughter could out show him on the ice without even trying.

If he knew a couple moves, it might impress her. She might actually think he's cool or something.

Too bad his display is near pathetic. Anyone want to help the old man out?]

[cut_and_kill]

If I threw a snowball at you know, would you fall over? [he's not a lot steadier on his feet than the other man, but at least he looks confident]

[fiveminutefail]

That wouldn't be very nice, you know!

[It's enough that the sudden appearance of the other nearly knocked him over, a snowball would send him careening into a snow pile.]

[cut_and_kill]

Hm, nope~ But it'd be an easy win!

Open like...nevermind |D

[sonuvasnitch]

[ Harry's skating around on his own again, but his head is full of unwelcome thoughts, so running into people, nearly literally is quite possible. Who knew this winter would start of so baddly? Still fresh starts are good, as is making new friends or catching up with old ones. And who knows what can happen on the ice. ]

I have things to complete that sentence, but I won't. B)

[buildingreality]

[Ariadne is doing laps around the ice when she isn't with Eames or Arthur; she drifts near Harry, giving him a small wave as she turns around elegantly to face him.]

oh dear |D

[sonuvasnitch]

[ Harry starts a bit at the sudden appearance. Clearly he hadn't been paying attention. ]

Oh, hey.

Oh yes. *^*

[buildingreality]

How are you? [she slows, keeping up with his pace. She hasn't spoken to him in a while.]

[armisonant]

[he had just been out walking his dragon steed when he heard the commotion.

so he'll just be glancing over, idly wondering what in the world they were doing before continuing on his way.]

[dashingrainbow]

[did you say dragon steed? Dash was just flying around, watching everyone, but she had to fly down for this]

Hey there.

[armisonant]

[more like a winged horse looking creature, but it would definitely catch her attention.

and Tybalt will just be kind of. staring. did she just-]

...You can speak?

[he's seen colorful Dragon Steeds before, but not quite like this.]

Didn't they talk before?

[dashingrainbow]

Uh, duh. [she looks at your friend, talking directly to him] can't you?

[pointofserenity]

[Charles wasn't the most graceful of skaters, but he was competent and thankfully not falling over every few seconds. There's a smile on his face as he's buoyed by everyone's feelings of excitement and happiness.

He can be found either skating around or off to one side with a warm mug of hot chocolate.]

REMARKABLY BRITISH-ING BEGINS

[biggerdreames]

[ Crashes into charles while he's skating. Eames was not paying attention, as he was distracted by looking for people to twirl. He lands on the ice, on his ass, with a thud. ]

Oh, bollocks.

THERE IS NOT ENOUGH TEA FOR THIS.

[pointofserenity]

[On the other hand, Charles could see Eames looming closer, but found he lacked the skills to successfully dodge the other in time. He also ends up falling over after a moment of mad arm waving in an attempt to keep his balance.]

Oh, bollocks.

[Hm, it appears they managed to speak at the same time.]

PREPARING THE JEFFA CAKES AS WE SPEAK

[biggerdreames]

[ Oh. Their both down. ]

Well. Time to start the entirely undignifying process of attempting to get up.
