[ four is letting it escape her because she doesn't want to think about how being dead is what makes this happen.
she smiles a little but shakes her head. ]
I won't be so weak as to need that.
[ she can't let herself be like that. she's slow to start once she's on the ice, but she gets the hang of it. it's a little wobbly, but she isn't falling yet.
at least not until the ice looks like it's starting to crack. ]
[hm!!!! that's bad!!! Lavi looks down, the sound alerting him, and sees the cracks form under their skates. ]
-- Shit!
[Shit. Survival(?) training kicks in, and he pivots on his skates and grabs for Four's hand, letting his acceleration pull him along towards the shore, to hopefully, SAFETY]
[ she glides along with him, but she looks back behind them at the ice as they go. she doesn't want to freeze, but dying is only temporary when you're already dead.
