Despite their fumble, Cyril still felt pretty confident in landing that after being a bit rusty. Ice skating for them was exceptionally difficult, since Cyril’s center of balance was always off and they had the extra weight. Still, because people told them often that they couldn’t do certain things, they had the incentive to always go higher.

”Thanks.” Cyril said, confidently. But of course, it was then Azu’s turn. Instead of going with a dangerous jump, she instead looped the twins elegantly, matching her grace with her speed. Even though theoretically, he could try to top it, Cyril didn’t want to strain his brother any further. Though Lyric didn’t often visually express discomfort, Cyril’s twintuition told him it was time to stop.

”Alright alright, you win.” Cyril said, impressed audibly but also a bit bummed he couldn’t go further. Story of his life, really. ”You’re really good. If only the school did actual sports teams. They could probably coach you to go onto the Olympics.” He was sincere, for once. ”You know, being a normal or whatever, I always thought physical feats you had to train for are so much more impressive than waving around magic.”

Lyric looked up, still steadying himself by clinging onto Cyril’s shoulder. ”Yeah Azu, that was really great. We haven’t done that in awhile, I’m surprised Cyril could keep up.”

Azucena turned beet red at their compliments. "Thanks, guys, but I'm afraid I'm not that good," she declared, kind of embarrassed and pleased at the same time, as she skated over to where they were standing beside Lyric now as she came to a stop.

"Olympic skaters are the bomb, whereas I am pretty sure I'd bomb if I had to skate and jump in front of a crowd," she told them with a wry grin.

Changing the focus of the conversation a little, Azu deliberately put her attention on the twins. "By the way, you two are pretty amazing yourselves," she said as she straightened her scarf a little as it had moved a bit during her twirls and jumps.

"Did you have lessons?" she asked them very curiously.

It had been awhile since they’ve seen people who were actually skilled at ice skating. And pulling off maneuvers like that was no easy task. Needless to say, they were impressed. ”You were! I mean, you did better than I ever could. Then again, I don’t really have legs...” Lyric laughed a bit. ”I’m sure with even more practice you’d be able to compete.”

When she switched the attention onto them, Cyril cocked a sideways grin, folding his arms across his chest. ”I mean, I kinda am pretty great.” But of course, he had to keep his ego in check somehow. ”But, thank you.”

”We didn’t take lessons, actually.” Cyril said, looking to his brother. Lyric nodded in confirmation.

”Yeah. A lot of instructors didn’t know how to teach us, and didn’t want us to get hurt. So, Cyril, not taking no for an answer, had us practice and teach ourselves.” He clarified. ”It took us awhile to get anywhere, being a lot more… clumsy than the average person. But we got this far on our own. So I guess that counts for something.”
