Description: Oh look, a Christmas festival
(
Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you. )
Next on the list of 'Fun Things to do at Festivals' was ice skating. Sora had never actually done this before, but had been assured it was 'the best fun you could have on a frozen surface in skates', or so a random festival-goer had claimed. He stopped by the edge of the icy water and grinned. This was going to be fun.

"Are you ready?!"

Being with his friends like this, even just for an afternoon felt like a deep wish that was finally fulfilled. That was enough to make him feel light, smirking as he stepped onto the rink, hands slipping into the pockets of his coat as he skated backwards.
"Maybe."

For the most part it was easy enough, although a few times he nearly lost his balance. It was like normal skating he realised, only slightly more slippery. He turned back to look for Kairi, thinking that maybe he should be more concerned with helping her than proving he could do this too. "How are you going?" He called out.

"Waiiit! I can do this too!" She called, reaching forward to grasp for either of them. This wasn't as hard as she was expecting.

"You're doing great!" He said, smiling.
Trying to balance whilst holding onto someone else was a little bit easier, they seemed to be able to support each other. He tugged at her hand to go forwards a bit further out onto the ice, and since he had found that with more momentum, oddly enough, it was easier to maintain balance.

Since paopu didn't work before, maybe he ought to try mistletoe.

"This is fun, isn't it?" The question was aimed at Sora, him being closer and all, but it was also directed towards Riku.

He looked around again to make sure Kairi was getting it, she seemed to be doing fine so far. "Yeah, it's lots of fun! Think you want to try going a bit faster?"
Reply
"Going faster might help. Any slower and you'll be going backwards."

He glanced over at her again. She was going pretty slowly, but she was completely new to this, the same as him. He didn't want to push her, but at the same time he didn't want to leave that smirk on Riku's face. He gave her hand a quick tug, he'd try it just the once more. "You can do it, just don't think too much and let your feet glide along." He picked up his own pace, he hoped he might be able to simply pull her along the ice via the appropriate useage of physics terminology. But since Sora had never tried ice skating before, he wasn't sure whether this would turn out alright or not.

Turning back to Kairi, he grinned and gave his most helpful piece of advice. "He's got a point. Don't think, Kairi, just skate." She'll figure it out. She was always faster on the uptake.
