It had been Liliana, the student council president who she had overheard talking about the ice rink. Azucena knew that every year the opened a skating rink, but she hadn't been sure where or when. Usually it was in the city, but some years, it was set up just on the outskirts of the city.

Pulling open the door to the rink, Azucena, wearing a light blue bomber jacket with bright pink gloves, immediately heard the ever popular disco type dance music, that was a vital and popular part of any public skate, playing in the background as people whizzed by on the ice.

Smiling at this, she headed towards the rental area and asked the boy there for a pair of size eight girl's figure skates. Then she made her way over to some benches to wait for Whisp, her classmate. As it turned out, after a brief discussion between classes, both girls loved figure skating and so had decided to go together and see what the rink was like this year.

Whisp was excited, she hadn’t been at school long and had already found a person with similar interest. She ice surfed all the way to the skating rink to get there faster after she was sure she knew the way. There was just something exciting about sharing the thing you liked with someone else. She had thoroughly enjoyed watching musicals with Huilu and hoped this would be like that. She walked in to the ice rink, having brought her own skates started to look for Azuncena.

Once she spotted her she walked over to her “Azuncena!” She called out waving and walking over confidently. She might’ve been a bit new to life outside her community but this was something she knew inside and out. “Im glad you could make it.” She sat down on the bench and started to change into her skates.

"Whisp!" Azucena said standing up excitedly when her classmate finally arrived. She had been a bit worried she might have some trouble finding the venue since Azucena was aware that Whisp was fairly new to Manta Carlos. "You found it, okay?" Azu asked as she took a seat and started to remove her shoes and put on her skates.

"Wow... you've got your own skates?" Azucena stated now noticing that she had, in fact, not gotten rental skates like she had. "I'm so jealous," she told her with a grin. "I've always wanted my own skates, and leg warmers, and a real skating outfit too..." she told her as she laced up her skates.

Whisp nodded “Yeah, I got directions on my phone it was pretty straight forward.” She probably would’ve gotten lost had it not been for google maps. Then again she could’ve flew around until she found it.

She looked down at her skates “These ones were a gift from my dad.” Whisp didn’t understand the whole skating outfit thing. She assumed that people would dress warmer to be in a cold environment but from what she’d seen on Tv they put on less. She herself didn’t have on a jacket or anything to keep warm. She didn’t cold at all.

“You could save up? Though I admittedly dont understand the point if the flashy outfits.” She finished lacing up her skates and stood up, remember to keep the rubbers on the blades.

"I could save up. At least for the skates and the leg warmers," she agreed as she stretched her leg a little and then bend forward to tie her one skate, "The outfit, well, they are super expensive," she explained. "I just think they are pretty, I'd probably be scared to ruin it if I fell though," she told Whisp.

Putting on and then lacing up her other skate, Azucena finally stood up and removed the skate guards one by one, "Shall we hit the ice?" she asked Whisp as she moved carefully towards the rink where there were a few others already skating.

Whisp nodded, leg warmers and skates seemed like a good think to save up for. She'd never actually tried to wear leg warmers, she assumed there were something that went under your normal pants. "If it's expensive it might be made of material that doesn't rip easily when scrapped across ice. Either way, maybe you could make one?"

She nodded excitedly, taking the rubbers off her blades and stepping onto the ice. She was very careful not add extra ice on top of the ice already there. "Besides skating what kind of things do you like?" She asked Azucena curiously. She was skating backward so as to look at the other girl while she was talking to her. This was a bit different than she was used to but it was the generally the same.

"I could try to make one," Azucena conceded thoughtfully as she followed Whisp out onto the ice. Azucena didn't know how to sew, not even a button, but she didn't think it was all that hard either. It shouldn't be, right? You just used a needle to join pieces of fabric together. Sounded easy enough to do.

Pushing herself forward, Azucena grinned widely when Whisp flipped around and started skating backwards so they could talk. "Well, I love reading books like fantasy novels, and romances," she admitted as she weaved back and forth a bit, "And music too, especially that new group that came out.. the one with all the cute guys, I think the lead singer is a demon, or a dragon..." she said, not quite sure as she did a small front kick jump.



(You can add whatever you want if you like to the group, I don't have anything specific in mind, just a way to link ideas and posts.)

Whisp nodded, she of course still didn’t underatand the whole thing but she’d support thenpther girl. She was much more interested in getting into things outside her comfort zone. Ice skating was fine, but she did that back home. “Oh my gosh, I love romance novels! It more so now that there are more accurate supernatural ones found here. There was this one book about the love story between a dragon and a member of some Fae court. It was great.” She didn’t exaclty know how she felt about that. A lot of people back home felt dragons shouldn’t date outside the community.

She tried to think of the band Azucena mentioned, it might’ve been a demon. “I’m sure I heard of them although I think the leader is a demon. I think at least. I haven’t really listened to much music.” She smiled excitedly at her trick, she was glad she had met someone skilled in her favorite sport. “Have you tried water surfing? I saw a few videos and I want to know if it’s as fun as it looks?”

(Sorry, this got pushed to the back of my posts.)

Azucena grinned, she HAD read that novel, and it was great. She was looking forward to the next book written by the same author. "That was an amazing book, and when the dragon whisked her away before the whole court, I loved that part.. " Azu admitted a bit dreamily. She was a huge sucker for impossible romances.

"I haven't surfed before," Azu said as she kept up with Whisk, also glad to have met somebody else who could skate well. "I'd like to. I even signed up for classes last summer, but in the end, I couldn't go. My parents decided to go camping that week," Azu told her, rolling her eyes at the memory. She liked camping, but they honestly could have gone any week, and not the week she had hoped to go surfing.

Whisp nodded in agreement. The island was definitely home to some strange romance novels. She would be lying if she said she didn’t enjoy it completely. “Camping sounds like fun though, anyways If you’re not the type to get cold easily I was thinking of learning now. I understand if you’re not interested seeing as you might grt super cold.” She had to constantly remind herself that not everyone was immune to cold. Even dragons from her community got cold.

She quickly looked around to make sure no one was close to them begore skating a bit closer to the other girl. “Do you have your eye on anyone cute?”
