Basement pool, Thursday evening

Walter led Alphonse down to the basement, his arms laden with some things you likely wouldn't expect in this weather, including blankets, ice skates, his electric kettle, and what appear to be the makings for hot cocoa with marshmallows.

He dropped most of those things off to the side of the pool and looked expectantly at his roommate.

"Come on. I want to see you turn all of that to ice."

[ooc: Pool party! The pool has been frozen solid, the room should be not just cool, but downright chilly. Enjoy the relief from the heat with a few goosebumps. Open to all. Anyone who wants their character to have an excuse to be down here can handwave a phone call from Walter. It's possible he randomly grabbed the school directory and dialed.]

"Nah. I'm used to taking hard falls." Anders levered himself up off the ice and slid around some more. "Not gonna try it?"

Seras shrugged.

"Don't see why not..."

She stepped onto the ice and pushed off, slipping a bit but laughing and trying to spin.

"That's the spirit!" cheered Anders. "Just remember, if you fall, stay there until it's too numb to hurt."

Seras snickered and attempted a figure eight.

Anders attempted a laughable imitation of a double lutz, which was really, really silly in sneakers. "I think having actual skates helps with, you know, the figure skating."

"That's true. I think, to be fair to ourselves, we should call this something different..."

"Figure shuffling?" suggested Anders. "No . . . figure sneakering? I'm drawing a blank here."

"I like figure shuffling. Extra points for falling with style."

"And extra points for creative foot rhythms!"

"And extra special points for doing that flappy arms 'Yikes! I'm falling!' dance."

"Extra-extra special points for throwing in jazz hands!"

"Well, yes. That goes with out saying."
