Herosmash: Cold Shoulder 1
“Why do we have to go to Alaska in the middle of winter? I want herbal soup!”
“Attie, once we help Demo with whatever Vespulo wants for the mechanical Pixiu, we'll order a hot pot in any flavour you want.”
The Lion Twins, Artisa and Atroxia, accompanied their cousin to the mysterious coordinates emailed to her phone. It took some time arranging for travel on such short notice, and by the time they got there, the polar nights had begun.
Modern day winter clothing is not a subject I am very familiar with, so this took me a little longer than expected.
One alternate title I name this piece is Lions in Winter. Those of you who knew me back when I was an Artix Entertainment player would get why I used this particular title.
For those who don't, I had started a fanon claim that Demolicious was the distant cousin of my player characters, the Lions, back when the game was in active development in 2011. Because the canon was very vague and the heroes were generally snubbed by the main player base, this claim never was contested.
