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.]

"Thank you," Stark said as he got back to his feet with a little help. "It is a good coat."

"It's very . . . fluffy." Way to state the obvious, Anders.

"It is. Very." Stark nodded. "I didn't buy it for myself. I wouldn't have chosen something quite so fluffy. But I like it."

"Someone bought it for me. Bought me a lot of clothes. I think she was tired of what I'd been wearing," Stark said with a slight shake of his head. "I think everyone on the ship was."

"Well, that was nice of her. What was wrong with what you were wearing, though?"

"They were, um, rags. Very old. Falling apart. New clothes were a very good thing."

"In that case it was definitely nice of her. What happened to your clothes to make 'em fall apart?" Anders had realized he really didn't know all that much about Stark, and was trying to do something about it.

"Didn't have any others to wear," Stark said. "I didn't have much of anything." Sometimes it was easy to forget that most people here weren't exactly familiar with Baniks.

"But the ship you were on? They took care of you after that?" asked Anders. "That's really cool."

Stark nodded. "They did. Mostly. They were good people. Are good people. I miss them, even when I don't miss anything else."

"I'm glad you had people like that in your life, man," Anders said honestly.

"Me too," Stark said quietly. "Me too. Everyone should."
