hayden kokinos:

Hayden had been in the complex for a couple of days now, meaning that he was fairly well settled. Being in the dorm set up was a shock to his system, having lived alone in his generous penthouse for so long, but he was starting to get used to it. Currently, he was in the convenience store, eyeing the vast array of sickly looking American snacks on display. ❝ Is there anything here that doesn’t look like it just tastes like a colour ?? ❞ He scoffed, picking up a bag of what looked like innocent crackers, but turned out to be cheesy monstrosities. ❝ I think I may have to brush up on my cooking skills. ❞

It was sad how much she enjoyed fruit snacks. Seriously, they were practically one of the best things ever to her. Elsa could possibly go through a box of them in one day, something she’s not too proud about. Fortunately, she’s done a good job at pacing herself the past few days... Until today, when she ate the last ten mini packages. Damn, she has to go to the store. Double damn, she might have to deal with human interaction... Oh thank god, there’s self check outs. Perhaps she won’t deal with- nope, triple damn. “Lots of trial and error, but there are some that aren’t too bad.” The blonde must look weird, holding two boxes of Mott’s fruit snacks.

duchess laroux:

“So…” Duchess started, not bothering to look up at the person who made their way into her vicinity to check if she knew them or not. She needed an honest opinion, and anyone in the compound probably had a valuable insight into the matter. Besides, she was thinking of making an actual survey on it later, so she might as well get a head start and a feeling for what she was getting herself into. “What’s your opinion on true love?” It seemed so childish and cheesy when she said it out loud, she couldn’t help but doubt herself now. But there was no going back anymore; she’d already initiated a conversation. “The whole soulmates, finding a missing part of yourself kind of true love? It’s important.”

She had to get out of her room at some point. Having a few days off, Elsa had been moping around her apartment for the past few hours. Honestly, what coach doesn’t want their skater to spend all their time skating? Her’s, apparently. Deciding to buy a Gatorade from downstairs, she bought an orange one when she was stopped by the brunette. The question surprised her, not really a question that one would ask a stranger. “Um...” Quick, Elsa, think. She felt put on the spot, trying to come up with an answer. “I’m... I’m not sure. I’ve never really experienced it before.” Is it possible for one to have an opinion on something like that even when they've never experienced it before?

pascal hugo:

of course being new they didn’t really know much around the compound. so this bench belonging to the bus stop was information to them. “there’s a bus here? where does it go?” they spoke, trying to make conversation, maybe make a friend, which was something he didn’t have a lot of.

“Just about everywhere. There are a few designated pick up spots, but if you have a specific place you need to go, then they’ll typically take you to that place.” Thinking about it, she reached into her bag and pulled up the bus schedule and map of the city. The bus driver had given it to her when she first began to take the bus and she was pretty confident with her sense of direction now. “Here,” the blonde said as she held out the map and schedule. “I’m good at this point. It’s a lifesaver.”

chloe bourgeois:

Of course Astra had to be confusing to navigate around. Chloé was already annoyed that she wasn’t dropped off in luxury like she was promised; so not knowing where to go next was just absolutely ridiculous. All of her expensive baggage was just on the ground next to her out in the open and Chloé would rather drop dead then carry them herself. She pulled her phone out so she could text her father, but before she could press send she noticed someone walking by. “Yoo-hoo!” She called out before putting her hands on her hips. “The day has been just dreadful and I could use some assistance with my bags. Can you like, be useful and show me where I can find my room?”

... Wow, this girl was a lot. Elsa had been heading to get to her home with the strap of her skating bag over her shoulder when she heard her fellow blonde call out for her. She noticed the abundance of bags, noticing that they were designer. Even the girl was dressed as if she was a celebrity or something. Wait, was she? She didn’t look familiar to Elsa... Then again, she doesn’t know much about celebrities unless they were skaters. Along with a few hockey players, but not as much as figure skaters. “Sorry, but I really got somewhere I need to be.” Yes, her apartment, away from other people and where she can be by herself and alone for the rest of the evening. “I can send someone your way to help you, though.”

pascal hugo:

there was a lost look in their eyes, head in the clouds one could say. sure they were sitting on the bench on this beautiful day watching the clouds, but it was almost like they were a million miles away. so when someone came near them, they were jolted right back in place, causing them to jump to the other side of the bench. in their soft, but deep voice, “oh sorry, am i in the way?”

After her coach caught her practicing on her day off, it was safe to say that she was basically grounded for the next two days. She wasn’t allowed one hundred feet near the ice rink for the next two days and that fact was killing Elsa. Even her boss agreed that she’d been spending too much time there and needed to find other things to do, spend time with other people. She can’t stay on the ice forever. Sighing, the blonde plopped down on the bench near the brunet to wait for the bus when she heard them speak. Glancing over, she gave them a small smile and slightly shook her head. “No, I’m just waiting for the bus. You’re all good.”

haru jeon:

“아가리 닥쳐!” haru yelled into his phone before slamming it down onto the table and letting out a groan, head falling back as he let out an exhausted sigh. it’s not like his family didn’t support him or anything, but haru got into an argument with his sister when she found out he had just left university for this initiative. taking a deep breath, haru lifted his head again and straightened his back, a small smile pulling at his lips again as he looked at the person nearby. “hi. you don’t happen to know the best place to get a drink, do you?”

Elsa couldn’t help but to sigh a little at her aunt’s words, gently rubbing the bridge of her nose. It had only been time for her to tell her aunt and uncle that she had been in the initiative for the past few months and safe to say, they weren’t happy. Of course, they were happy that she made it into the organization, but the fact that she kept it a secret from them for so long? That fact didn’t bode too well with them. Finally giving them her goodbyes (and, yes, she promises to keep an eye on Anna), she finally hung up and just a few seconds after, heard the sound of a phone being slammed into a table. Glancing at her fellow astranaut, she could tell that he, too, just dealt with a rather uncomfortable conversation. “Dunkin Donuts, about a fifteen minute drive from here.”

mitch sanderson:

standing in the ice rink was foreign for them, but mitch had approval from the owner to sit for a bit and sketch. human anatomy wasn’t easy, especially not when they’re moving so fast, so gracefully, but they needed the practice if they were going to get better. seeing a dancer already on the ice, mitch waved their hand around, trying to get their attention for a second. in a clear handwriting, mitch wrote in big letters on the page. 

“can i draw you skating for practice? you move so gracefully”

Elsa nearly jumped when she finally noticed them, having not seen Mitch earlier. Skating over to them, she read the note and smiled softly yet sincerely. “Yes, of course! And thank you so much; Lots of practice and patience. Would you like for me to skate slowly or at my normal pace?” She had never been used as a model for an art piece before. She’d be lying if she said she didn’t feel honored or excited.

[icequeenxxelsa]

anna arendelle:

Anna noticed the change in her sister, and she didn’t like it. “Hey, you good?” she asked, hoping she was simply misreading the situation. What could have possibly happened in the half second it took for Elsa’s mood to change?

She felt... Frozen or something. Like she could barely move, barely speak, barely even breathe. Elsa never told Anna about her anxiety or her depression, begging their aunt and uncle to not discuss it with the younger girl. She absolutely despised how it was able to change her mood so fast and so suddenly. She was finally reconnecting with her sister and now... She desperately needed to get out of there. “I-I need to go.” Her voice was basically a whisper, setting her empty glass down on the nearby table.

perrie bellanger:

Perrie’s strategy to learning about Sacramento was simple: walk around the entirety of it, don’t get lost, and stop to fill out a job application everywhere she went. Of course the ice skating rink was her first choice, being the closest she could get to Alaska in a town whose temperature lows were in the 70′s. She’d just gotten the paper and pen when music filled the arena around her. Deciding she might as well have something to entertain her whilst filing out the forms, she walked further into the building. She got as close as she could to the ice, resting her arms on the wall dividing the floor she was on and the ice. By the time the girl out there had gotten halfway through her performance, Perrie was completely mesmerized. She didn’t take her eyes off of the figure skater, the music and movements too entrancing to ignore. She continued to watch the skater, even once the performance had ended. “Not to say California isn’t worthwhile, but don’t you have somewhere better to be? Like the Olympics?”

No words could describe how she felt skating the song. Nothing could express the freedom she felt when she was on the ice, how her skates glided gracefully over the solidified water. How her heart soared as she sped up, jumping into the air to do a trick and then landing back on the ice perfectly. She felt complete serenity and solitude whenever she was skating. She felt like herself, she felt complete and whole.

Nothing, in her mind, could ever replace that.

Finishing the routine, the sudden voice slightly startled her but she remained in her finishing position. Looking over her shoulder and turning around slightly, she smiled a little at her fellow blonde. She has gotten used to people watching her when she skated, but it still shook her every now and then. Skating over to the wall, Elsa shrugged a little and played with the ends of her braid. “That’s the plan, hopefully. Just need to make sure that I’m completely ready and then, I shall see about the Olympics.”

Astra Easter Event at Willow Park ~ Elsa Arendelle

[icequeenxxelsa]

tatiana sharma:

Tatiana had been scrambling to prepare for Astra Easter picnic. She prepped all the food the night before and that morning she cooked everything. Her apartment was filled with rich smells that made Tati long for her home in India and all her family. Food was always something that brought the family all together. One could say she went a little overboard with the amount of food she made but sharing a piece of her culture was going to be all worth it. Now here she stood in Willow Park with a basket of beef samosas, cauliflower pakoras, and tandoori chicken skewers. She set her picnic basket on a table and smoothed out her dress before opening it. Once again releasing the enticing smells into the air.

Elsa honestly wasn’t sure if she wanted to celebrate the holiday. She never really celebrated it before and she wasn’t sure if her anxiety was going to be really bad today or not. But... She has been able to interact with people so far without having a huge meltdown or something. Maybe today will be her lucky day. (However, she’s still going to take her meds just in case.) Arriving at the park with a påskekage (a Danish Easter cake) and wearing a cute yet simple sundress, she was trying to find a place to set her dessert at when she got a wave of such delicious food and their incredible fragrance. Of course, all of the food there smelled so good; This, however, completely captured her. “Hmm, that smells so delicious!”

jack frost:

He shrugged, placing a hand in his neck casually. “It’s okay, I don’t remember most of it.” Jack remembered waking up, feeling like he’d been crushed by a car (which, in a way, he apparently had been), and not being able to talk for a good while. He didn’t remember how it’d happened; everything he knew from before was broken glass, pieces of the windows, on asphalt, and a blue truck. He wasn’t going to tell her that, though. “Alaska sounds good! They have those big, fluffy dogs, right? For sledding?” He’d seen pictures once, while looking up ski resorts up north. “So, you skate. What else do you do?”

Was she curious to ask for more information? Of course she was. How bad was his accident? What kind of accident was it? What were the after affects? All those sorts of questions. But Elsa knew that that would be really rude of her. Besides, Jack wasn’t really pressing the issue, so it was most likely something he doesn’t want to talk about. Totally understandable. “The Alaskan Malamute, yeah! They’re seriously one of the top five best dog breeds ever.” The blonde paused, trying to think. Skating was her life, her blood, her soul. All she could ever think about was skating. “Well... I suppose that I do sing a little bit. I mean, it’s not my dream to become a professional singer or anything, but it’s fun. I also really enjoy interior decorating and architecture. And a little bit of photography.” Okay, she just surprised herself. Sure, she has always been fascinated with those things. It’s just that her passion for skating has always overshadowed those other passions. “Besides snowboarding and lacrosse, what else do you enjoy?”

[icequeenxxelsa]

Worlds 2019. That was Elsa’s goal: Figure Skating Worlds Championships 2019. And if the blonde expects her to get to compete in it, then she’s going to need to work ten times harder than ever before. No fumbling, no mess up, not a single hair out of place; Total and complete perfection. Working day and night with her coach, today was suppose to be her day off. Rest up, enjoy herself, don’t stress out. At first, she was... Until noon had strike and she grew restless. 

Coming to the rink, she was able to get an hour to herself so that she may practice. Starting the music, she made her way over to the center of the rink until the music finally told her to start skating, to start her routine. And god, was she lost in it. Elsa felt complete and utter peace when she skated, when she let the music take over her and the routine to guide her. Nothing was more perfect than skating.

jack frost:

Jack couldn’t really judge on the front of knowing or not knowing about things, because he was still rediscovering things himself (but mostly why he knew or didn’t know). He shrugged. “Nah, that’s fine. It’s a weird sport.” That probably settled it; he was geared more towards snowboarding now. “I haven’t played it since… uh, my accident.” Since his memory loss, since the death of his sister, but Elsa didn’t have to know. He waved his hand carelessly to avoid questions. “I prefer snowboarding now. I don’t know about Canada,” he said, frowning, “but I guess if there’s snow, it’s fine with me.”

“Ooo, accidents are the worst. I’m sorry.” She once sprained her ankle when she was fourteen and couldn’t go ice skating for weeks until it was fully healed. It was practically torture, but she’s grateful that it hadn’t broke or something. That would have been more painful. And she’s not sure what sort of accident he had, but it’s not really her place to ask him such a question. They don’t really know each other and having a few similar interests doesn’t automatically mean that they’re besties or something. “I think that more so around the Alaska-Canada border would be our best bet, but I agree: as long as there’s snow, I’m all good.”

anna arendelle:

Anna smiled at her sister. “Well how can you not be? It’s the best! Or maybe not the best, but– no it’s the best.” This felt so normal. It was like they had never been apart.

“Oh, I sure do miss this,” the blonde said with a little laughter, smiling brightly at her little sister. That is, until, she remembered how much she has kept herself away from Anna. Her sister has always been so positive and full of light. She was everything Elsa wasn’t and she could end up getting hurt. She can’t have her see her at her worst. She doesn’t deserve that. Clearing her throat, she looked away and took a gentle sip of her drink as if she completely shut down.

jack frost:

Elsa’s dress vaguely reminded Jack of the winter, with its soft blue, way more than his own dark suit. Still, he tried to add some color with his accessories and snowflake cuff links, but his little blue flowers were in Ariel’s possession now. He caught a glimpse of her behind Elsa, and though she didn’t see him, he smiled instinctively. “People have been telling me how great I am at snowboarding and lacrosse, so I guess that’s true for me too!” He didn’t seem all that interested in lacrosse anymore, maybe he was losing his spark? Or he needed to get back into it…. “We should petition them to move to Scandinavia.”

“Lacrosse... I’ll be honest with you, it wasn’t until I moved here seven years ago when I first learned about lacrosse. I still don’t understand it, but it does look interesting.” Okay, the only sports she cared about was hockey, skating, skiing, snowboarding, and any other winter sports. Gymnastics was pretty cool, too. But he could possibly be a huge lacrosse fan and she doesn’t want to offend him. “Yes, I agree! Or at least Canada. Canada’s not too bad. Needs to work on some things, but I’d be cool with living in Quebec or something.”
