Okay, heatstroke is bad. I'm going to be flying around to cool down the rooms of anyone who needs it. Nothing cold lasts long in this weather, but in the meantime, let's make this as fun as we can. All right?

There better be a freak snowstorm later on at some point. I feel like my element's been very neglected.

...not claiming I know how what you do really works, but take care not to power yourself out, yeah?

[freezespirited]

I've actually never spent a lot of time in places this hot before, so we'll see.

If you see a puddle with a blue sweatshirt in it, you'll know what happened.

video

[alwaysimpure]

How about before you melt down to a puddle, you give me a call so I can come pick you up?

video

[freezespirited]

It's a joke. I'm not really going to melt.

video

[alwaysimpure]

Hey, you never know around here. Still promise to call me if you're in trouble?

video

[freezespirited]

Sure. But I won't get in trouble. I know what I'm doing.

video

[alwaysimpure]

Here's hoping!

When this is over, I want a snowball fight.

video

[freezespirited]

You're on.

video

[alwaysimpure]

I can't wait.

video

[freezespirited]

It's going to be the best snowball fight of all snowball fights!

video

[alwaysimpure]

Let's make it epic. I'm thinking across the city and multicoloured snow.

video

[freezespirited]

I'm all for it, but how are we going to do that?

video

[alwaysimpure]

You have to open your mind to this simple concept: Nothing is impossible.

video

[freezespirited]

Okay, I freed my mind. Now what?

video

[alwaysimpure]

Next, never broadcast your plotting to the world. We can discuss it face to face when you're done melting.

video

[freezespirited]

I'll keep that in mind. Now I just have more motivation not to melt.

video

[alwaysimpure]

Excellent! I'll be expecting you for plotting when it cools back down.

[accidents]

Very neglected. I never thought I'd miss snow this much.

[freezespirited]

Do you really miss it? I'll have to create a real blizzard once it cools down enough.

[accidents]

Let's not get carried away here. I don't think the average person would appreciate a blizzard.

[freezespirited]

Okay, then a snowday. Or five.

[accidents]

That we can work with.

[finesthour]

Don't worry about me; I think the weather feels absolutely lovely.

[freezespirited]

I'm glad someone's enjoying it.

Do you live in a desert?

[finesthour]

I used to live in a world that was quite desert-like, yes. After having lived in England for quite some time, this tropical atmosphere is most welcome.

[freezespirited]

You're from a world where England doesn't exist?

[finesthour]

Well, a different version from what I understand, yes.

[video]

[easy_a]

Mind stopping by mine first?

Because I think today might be a good day to get your shoes. I mean, if cooling everyone's apartments zaps your flying energy or however that works, you'll have to walk. And the payment is a fucking inferno.

[video]

[freezespirited]

You don't even need to ask.

I wasn't planning on it. --Okay, in order to spare my feet, I'll wear shoes. But I'm not wearing them after this. [secretly he's touched by the thought.]

[video]

[easy_a]

Thanks.

[Alisha purses her lips, though they're still in a smile.]

We'll see. Maybe you'll like making a fashion statement beyond a frozen hoodie.

[video]

[freezespirited]

[He starts to smile, before it falls into a frown.]

I wouldn't be too hopeful. It's a fashion statement?

[video]

[easy_a]

You don't think women wear heels for comfort do you?

Shoes are always a fashion statement, even the "practical" ones.

[video]

[freezespirited]

I thought they wore them to look taller.

And stab people with their feet. Who wouldn't want to do that. Except me.

[video]

[easy_a]

Long legs make a woman look more shapely. Better for sex, if you want to cut to the chase, though loads of us wear them because we feel glamourous in them.

Yeah, you're tall enough that you don't need to create the illusion of long legs. [She teases.] Wot you need is something a lot more casual.

...You know how to tie laces?

[video]

[freezespirited]

[Jack coughs into his palm, loudly.] They look...that

Wait, do girls care about long legs?

Who doesn't?

[video]

[easy_a]

Don't hurt yourself, Jack. If "sex" is that hard to say, maybe we should stick to shorter words.

[Okay, she has to get that bit of teasing out of the way. She won't pester him on it much more.]

Some of us, yeah. Makes legs look shapely, like models' legs.

Someone who doesn't own a pair of shoes? Just need to know if we should get you sneakers with or without laces.

[video]

[freezespirited]

I can say sex, Alisha. I even know what it means.

[Don't mind the faint tinge of purple creeping up his face.]

Ah.

Don't the ones without laces always look dorky? Whichever you want.

[video]

[easy_a]

Means nothing if you don't know to make it good. But that's not really something I'll worry about teaching you until you find a girl to shag.

[Nope, she doesn't mind it. If anything, it's amusing.]

Not all of them. And they'll be on your feet, so you'll get to pick them out. My treat, though.

[video]

[freezespirited]

What.

You're such a good friend. I'm very lucky to know you.

You're serious? [He looks a little stunned.]

[video]

[easy_a]

Exactly why that's a conversation for another day.

[She laughs despite herself.]

Er, yeah. Meet you at the shoe place downtown?

[video]

[tower_bound]

So... there is a reason the sidewalks were supposed to freeze over last week.

[She is onto you, Jack.]

[video]

[freezespirited]

I never said there wasn't a reason.

[Grin. Smart.]

[video]

[tower_bound]

I guess that's true.

[Cheeky.]

So... are you going to let me in on the secret now?

[video]

[freezespirited]

Secret? If it's a secret, how am I going to let you in on it?
