[Freddy's not late or anything but when he gets to the agreed meeting place by the woods he's a little winded from making sure he gets there on time. There's not a second to waste, not when they've managed to coordinate the same lunch hour with no overlap.
Freddy's got nothing with him by the way. No gear. Nothing. Was he supposed to?]
[When you're giving a time, you are supposed to be there. Naturally. The old man is the one bringing the gear. Or maybe he should have said that. He took the car. The better to carry not one but two sticks, a puck, a helmet, shoulder padding, padded pants, two sets of skates. The old man is walking around the frozen pond, trying to spot for any weak spots or breaks to avoid.
He looks up and grins.]
There you are. [Just in time, he's coming back to the car.] All we need is in the trunk.
[Freddy upnods to Larry before going towards the car that he took that Freddy couldn't use to get here, ffff. He pops the trunk and looks over all the gear.]
...You're real serious about this.
[It's a joke, obviously. Except not because Larry seems like he is, it's just funny to the kid who puts out his cigarette in the snow. Hey maybe that's why he got winded. Don't run and smoke at the same time.]

[This is...unexpected. He speaks calmly though, not trying to hurry the conversation or anything. Kenny's a good guy and deserves respect.]

Can't do it half ass. If you want to keep your ass.
[Okay. Brace yourself, kid. Larry is going to help dress you, at least that's how he's approaching with the padded pants.]
These first. Then skates. It's a two man job if you don't have the hang of it.
[Helmet last.]
