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.]

"Not gonna try it?" Anders called, completely at a loss as to why anyone would not want to go play on the ice. "You should get out here! It's fun!"

"Falling on your butt is fun?"

"Well, it's ice, right? Sit there long enough and it'll numb the pain of the fall right away!"

At which point Anders did slip, lose his balance, and end up sprawled on the ice.

". . . and now's a good time to test out that theory," he said, not moving.

Nadia shook her head. "You're nuts."

"Thanks! I'm taking that as a compliment. Also, I am numb," Anders pointed out. "Which means not in pain, so I think my theory worked."

"Until you get important bits frost bitten,"

Anders scrambled back to his feet quickly. "And that's why you don't just stay there."

"Uh huh. You're just going to fall again,"

"So?" Anders grinned and tried to slide the length of the pool again, only to stop a third of the way across. "It's still fun!"

Nadia shook her head. "Not seeing the fun,"

Anders heaved a melodramatic sigh. "I guess there's no way of convincing you, huh?"

Nadia raised an eyebrow, then ended up pulled onto the ice anyway by Walter.
