CHECK IT OUT // OPEN - freddie - 01-26-2020 [align=center][div style="background=transparent; borderwidth=0px; bordercolor=; width: 400px; font-size: 8pt; line-height: 125%; text-align: justify; font-family: arial; color: black"] — “shit.” the remark passed his lips in an amused huff of breath. his arms flailed around to try and keep him upright as he slid across the frozen surface of the lake, a string of curses passing his lips all the while. it had been a while since frederick had tried to have some fun, at least in the most mundane sense of the word. generally his idea of “entertainment” consisted of bullets and gunfire, or picking up a stranger, or whoever he chose. apparently sliding across the ice in his shoes, while not quite up to par with those other ideas of ‘fun’, still brought a bit of amusement into an otherwise boring afternoon. it made him feel childish to be out on the ice, finding amusement in it like a little kid would (and this time he didn’t have ida and henry as an excuse to be doing something this stupid, either). though, as he huffed an amused breath, turned his gaze towards the lodge as if to see if anyone witnessed his own random burst of amusement. there was a small group not too far away… huffing a breath of smoke out into the air, he lowered his gaze back down to the ice. with one confident foot, he stamped it down onto the ice - something one should’ve done before standing smack dab in the middle of a frozen lake, one might think. it didn’t budge. solid ice. “hey!” he called over to the group of people outside. a boyish grin made its way to his lips, waving a hand towards them. “anyone in the mood for some ice skating?” if he had the materials, suggesting hockey would’ve been a fun excuse to get to push others around on the makeshift ice rink. however, instead he stood there, looking all-too innocent as he beamed at the group. //dumb ass on ice: the movie who tf knows fam Re: CHECK IT OUT // OPEN - body. - 01-27-2020 [align=center][div style="width: 450px; text-align: justify; font-family: arial; font-size: 9pt;"]Freddie has already established himself as an enemy in Elwin's mind. He's interacted with the guy a total of two times, this being the second instance, but already he can imagine himself giving the man a nice, hard push into the ice. Maybe it'll crack and he'll get a faceful of frigid water. Ice skating? He's ashamed to admit that he's never done anything of the sort. Part of it is due to the fact that he's so ungraceful, he'd fall flat on his face the second he steps foot onto the ice. It'd sooner break his nose than crack the ice, given that he weighs about as much as a feather, so he's not particularly worried about falling in. He just doesn't want to end up splinting a broken leg five minutes into his foray over the frozen lake. But who is he to play it safe? If he breaks something, then he breaks something. Plus, he thinks, barely concealing his impish little smile, he has a plan. Nothing too bad, but certainly nothing good either--at this point, he just wants to be a nuisance to Freddie, the dickwad who had the nerve to laugh at his unfortunate haircut. (The very same 'do he has yet to fix.) "Why not?" he calls back, hiding the impending doom in his voice. And so, Elwin steps forth onto the ice, promptly slipping and sliding his way directly into the center, where Freddie stands. It's there that he decides he will now suddenly lose his footing and fall forward, reaching an arm out to catch Freddie by the shoulder and try to bring him down with him.

Never had she been somewhere so cold that she'd get the chance to ice skate, so she had no idea how to do so. So when Freddie asked if anyone wanted to ice skate, she just gave him a confused look and watched him and soon Elwin on the ice. [b]"Do you just...slide around on the ice?" She asked, standing at the edge of the forzen lake with an unsure expression. She definitely wasn't too keen on the idea of slipping and falling onto the ice, nor did she want to look like a complete idiot. [color=transparent]thes code
"Hey Freddie? Could you...come here?" Was it so she could hold onto him? Oh 100%, she refused to fall on her ass in front of everyone. //this is so gross Re: CHECK IT OUT // OPEN - EDMUND. - 01-28-2020 At the sight of Alfie powering on up ahead, Edmund's interest of piqued. What had him striding towards the lake so swiftly? Ed flitted his gaze over to meet Tommy's gaze, his older brother's brows raising. They spoke with their eyes, just one look before they were on their way, following Alfie towards the lake. That was when, upon arriving, Ed heard Alfie exclaim eagerly, ❝ Fuck yeah! This is a fuckin' stupid idea! ❞ And, Alfie climbed onto the ice, immediately slipping and falling on his ass with a gasp. ❝ He's such a fuckin' twit, mate. ❞ Tommy uttered obnoxiously loud to Eddie, Ed stood silently with his hands shoved in his pockets, stood frozen a couple of feet away from the ice. Alfie slowly got his footing again, grumbling to himself before holding a hand out for Blake, ❝ Here- take my hand. I ain't gonna fall again! ❞ He insisted assuredly, Tommy humming with disbelief before taking a couple steps closer to the ice. ❝ Stop playin' silly fuckin' buggers now, you two- ❞ Tommy called out to Freddie and Elwin. Eddie didn't move, eyes fixated warily on the ice over the large expanse of water. Chest puffed in and out somewhat heavier, more rapidly, more noticeably to himself where he stayed, features stoic. ❛ Lets try this again. ❜ The words felt as real as the day he heard them. ❛ What are you planning? What do you know about Mickey Serge? ❜ Ed creaked his neck from side to side with a sudden sickening sensation inside, a slow, shaky breath passing his lips as if the thought of skin connecting another sheet of ice was terrifying to him. Well, maybe it was. He cleared his throat, gaze suddenly shifting to look at Tommy as he bickered at Freddie and Elwin, ❝ Y'both fuckin' idiots! If one of you break a arm I'll personally go there and break the other just as a ❛I fuckin' told you so❜! ❞ Ed took a couple of steps back, face unreadable but heart slamming away in his chest.

Re: CHECK IT OUT // OPEN - EMERY - 01-28-2020 [align=center][div style="width: 350px; text-align: justify; font-family: helvetica; font-size: 9pt; line-height: 1.4;"]as freddie invited everyone to go ice skating, emery felt a small rush of excitement as she got up and put the blanket she was using over poppy as she went down to the lake to check things out. she was originally going to just watch them all for awhile, but had slowly began to become interested in getting out on the ice herself. growing up, she never had the chance to learn how to skate, she had seen movies where people would, but it never had gotten cold enough for the lakes and ponds to freeze where she was from. eventually, she gave in, too intrigued to figure out what it was like. emery carefully made her way onto the ice, arms stretching out to try and keep her balance (as if that would actually help her, she tripped so many times she had lost track, she wasn't the most graceful person around). she tried to move carefully, an 'oh shit' expression forming on her face after a second as she began to slip. "oh, fuck me dead-" she managed to balance herself out, looking around to make sure there were no kids around to witness her cussing, though they had probably heard worse. as she got a little farther out, she reached her arm as far as she could and grabbed onto alfie's arm before using the taller man to pull herself over towards him so she didn't have to move her feet as much and risk almost slipping again. "i don't know, i think he showed some real potential, he should pick up figuring skating." she remarked playfully in regards to the quip freddie made. although emery did have to agree with him saying alfie probably wouldn't make it over there without falling, here she was, holding onto alfie's arm. probably not her smartest decision. "at least if we fall, we'll all look like idiots together." she mentioned to blake and alfie.

Pain shoots up his forearm, pulsing in his wrist, and as quickly as he can, he yanks it away from the ice, sitting back on his bruised knees to clutch his poor wrist. "Ow, fuck," he mutters, shooting a glare in Freddie's direction, as if this is somehow his fault. This wouldn't have happened if his face wasn't so infuriating. Maybe then Elwin wouldn't have had the unbearable urge to knock the fucker down. Despite his throbbing wrist, Elwin makes a one-armed attempt to get to his feet, which doesn't go very far, since as soon as he tries to stand, something knocks the air out of his lungs and sends him tumbling back onto his side, sliding a few feet across the ice. Motherfucker. Oh, yeah, Freddie is so dead now. Elwin has already resolved to murder that little bastard whenever he gets the chance... whenever he can get back on his feet. "I'm gonna wring your fucking neck!" he calls after Freddie, now clutching his poor, poor ribs. Luckily for him, he manages to stand on shaky legs without immediately going back down. He's not going to go after Freddie at the moment, given the fact that he'd have witnesses (and his entire body hurts now.) God, he's probably going to be one big, walking bruise in the morning. Instead of mauling Freddie and spilling his damn blood all over the ice, he sort of just slides here and there, on arm held out to try and maintain his balance while the other hangs more or less limp at his side. He'll look at it later. The ice starts to pull him in Edmund's direction, who looks particularly horrified by the sight, though he can't possibly discern why. It's just frozen water. "Afraid of falling or something?" he asks, giving the man a nudge. "'S not so bad." Re: CHECK IT OUT // OPEN - EDMUND. - 02-01-2020 tw. brief mention of past injuries & violence Edmund’s thoughts were briefly interrupted by the arrival of Rory, the younger man joining beside him. If it weren’t for the very next question from the untroubled teenager, Eddie probably would’ve responded with little more than a huff. But, Rory asked if Ed was all right, and the older man suddenly found himself standing more rigidly. Features barely moved, nothing more than the slightest of twitches. Rory was a smart boy, and an observant one at that. It wasn’t easy to take much notice of Eddie’s emotions, especially ones which he’d so readily suppress because emotion was weakness. Yet, here Rory was, asking if Ed was okay. It could’ve been mere coincidence, purely to check up on how Ed’s day was going, but Rory wasn’t the type to want to engage in mindless small talk, especially with the Captain of all people. He must’ve seen the briefest look of horror in Ed’s eyes, the way his Adam’s apple bobbed up and down from swallowing hard. His head felt as if it were throbbing, the memories of trauma as painful as the head injury was itself. He could remember the cracking sound of his head being thrust against the ice. The choking sensation when his head was held below glacial waters. ❝ Yeah- ❞ Ed lied smoothly, voice grumbling as he then cleared his throat, swiftly itching the side of his nose. He’d never be able to step on ice again, as long as the memory of his near-death experience lingered. He had his mysteriously stitched up head to prove it and, whilst he refused to let anybody else in on what had happened for him to sustain such injury, Eddie knew that the wound had been noticed around the lodge. ❝ Waiting for somebody to inevitably fall and hurt themselves. ❞ He commented just as Elwin and Freddie seemingly got into a sprawl on the ice. Ed nodded towards the two boys tussling, remarking, ❝ And there it is. ❞ He watched as Alfie held onto Eddie’s wife, the two of them gliding unsteadily across the ice. ❝ Oh, fuck you Freddie! ❞ Alfie exclaimed, adding, ❝ By the time Elwin’s done with ya I will have shuffled close enough to give your ass a good beating, too! ❞ And then, Emery joined his side, Alfie resting his hand on the small of her back before pointing out, ❝ Nah, we got this! ❞ He was overly confident, despite his mishap merely moments ago. ❝ If you fall, sometimes you just gotta pick yourself up! ❞ He announced with a playful nod. ❝ I ain’t worried about you- ❞ Tommy corrected snappily as he called across the ice. ❝ Like Hell does I give a shit about you! I’m worried about Elwin- if he hurts himself then who the fuck is gonna play medic when I snap your measly arms in two?! ❞ Ed quirked a brow; Tom had a point, and it wasn’t like he’d stop him if he was fighting Fred of all people. Between Ed and Tom, they both knew that Fred had it coming. Elwin neared Ed, Eddie bunching his brows up at the lighthearted comment. Afraid of falling? Not quite. ❝ Consider me the ground marshal. ❞ He chose to evade the question entirely, shifting on his spot in the snow near the lake.
