Toshiaki has vague childhood memories of being out on the ice. How his mother used to peer over him like a mother duckling, watching him — only to remove him off the ice out of pure fear. He’s never set foot on an ice patch again after that. But after hearing Lilith suggest something for them to do together, well, how could he refuse?[break][break]
He ended up buying a nice new sporty pair of ice skates just for their outing. Bright red, like Santa Claus — they practically say ‘ho, ho, ho!’ Perfect for the holiday season. In a stroke of luck he finishes tying up his skates before her, and swoops in to save the day. [break][break]
“Here. Lemme help, Lils!” [break][break]
Smiling, Toshiaki bends down and makes quick work with the laces. Ties them in neat bows. “There! How’d I do?”[break][break]

[attr="class","hanatext"]Truth be told, she hadn't expected him to agree. It had just been a passing thought that she'd unintentionally vocalised whilst brewing some tea and staring at the snow piling outside the window. Now that she's here though...

Warm hands slip in just as she finishes putting her skates on, deftly tying the laces into bows. The smile that he gives her whilst asking for her critique is something that she watches for a moment, hesitating as if attempting to figure out how she should go about things. But after a few beats of silence, she raises a hand, reaching up to his head whilst it's still within reach and offering a few gentle pats.

Pushing to her feet, it takes all but a moment for her to figure her balance, even with a rather rowdy Zorua running loops around and between her skates.

"Sure you wanna try skating?"

It had been a passing whim, after all. From frostbitten noses to sore legs, the multitude of injuries and maladies that could befall him is something that weighs at the back of her mind.

Zorua prancing around on the ice and the overall atmosphere of the skating rink only adds to his holiday spirit. There’s no way he’d give up now! Not to mention receiving praise from Lilith always puts him in a happy, fuzzy mood he can’t quite put into words. Balancing atop the ice wasn’t too difficult. His muscle memory from years ago was still very much intact. Other than that, however, he is heavily inexperienced in this sport. [break][break]
“Nice try, Lils. You can’t change my mind that easily. We’re doing this!”[break][break]
Carefully, Toshiaki allows himself to slowly slide forward, soon stationed right by her side. As if stuck in contemplation he takes repeated quick glances between her and the scratchy slab of ice that keeps him balanced. One wrong move and he’ll fall right onto his bum. Ouch.[break][break]
Well he doesn’t want that..[break][break]
He looks towards Lilith, smiling as he outreaches his gloved palm. “Actually, can you maybe hold my hand?”

[attr="class","hanatext"]"Well..."

Is she not going to stop him before he gets hurt?

"If you're sure."

The words come out seemingly indifferent as they always have, yet something still prickles at the back of her mind. When had she started caring so much about whether someone would get hurt from their choices?

His first few seconds on the ice go quite well, her eyes taken off him for a few seconds as she watches Eclipse gently scrabble across the frozen surface to keep pace. But when she looks back up, his hand is outstretched, that same goofy grin on his face as he asks of her the simplest thing: To hold his hand to help him keep his balance.

Why not? She reaches out with her own hands, reddened knuckles brushing against his thumb as her fingers easily slip into his palms. And in doing so, she finds a warmth that tickles her senses, one that she finds herself not quite minding even as her palm burns lightly from the difference in temperature.

"Take it slow. We're in no rush."

All at once a rush of cold against warmth burns at his skin. Not unpleasant, although it’s an unfamiliar tingle. One that sends a strange, fuzzy feeling to his gut. Almost as if a swarm of BUTTERFREE were flying around in there. As they stroll mindlessly on the ice at a snail’s pace, Toshiaki cannot help but reminisce at how far they’ve come. Before Lilith couldn’t stand any kind of touch from him. Let alone be dragged out into the world. Now they’re holding hands in a public space for all to see.[break][break]
Chatter from the other pairs fills the space as he gently squeezes onto her palm. One thing he notices is that it’s much smaller than his- instantaneously solidifying his feelings in always wanting to protect her.[break][break]
“This.. is nice.” [break][break]
He says with a growing smile, cheeks glowing a subtle pink from the cold winds. Sweet as the moment is, he can’t help but laugh at the Pokemon who struggles on the ice.[break][break]
“Oi. Careful, don’t fall!”[break][break]

[attr="class","hanatext"]"Ice skating?"

Nice isn't the first word that might come to mind, but she supposes that it sounds much better of a descriptor than whatever she had in mind. As her attention flits from the rowdy Zorua to the much calmer Toshiaki, she traces the light tints of pink upon his cheeks. And how his laughter chimes in this crisp winter air, the brilliance of the sun oh so daringly stolen and placed within those eyes.

"I'm honestly more worried about you falling..."

Strangely her concern for him is endearing. Even more so knowing Lilith doesn’t consider herself a gentle person, yet contradicts herself with those very concerns. It’s far different than the overprotective care his mother once imposed on him, keeping her only child hidden from the world like some kind of contraband (and in many ways he was.) [break][break]
He smiles at her. “It’s alright. Even if I fall I can always get back up! No big deal.”[break][break]
He’s no stranger to a bruise or three.

[attr="class","hanatext"]"That doesn't make it hurt any less." A quiet frown takes the centerpiece of a typically unreadable expression. After all, this is ice, not freshly fallen snow that they're talking about.

Worries dampen the atmosphere. She's read this in a book once. And as he continues to smile and chase them away, she can feel a sliver of guilt eating at her.

"Let's... teach you how to stop first, in case you start sliding off, yeah?" Taking a step back, she creates just enough space to provide an example. "Bend down slightly... and turn your toes inwards... like a v."

Toshiaki, curious as ever, eyes her to try and mimic the pose that she’s doing. Bend down slightly, turn toes inward and- somehow, his legs up a little too far apart and he slips, face down into the ice below.[break][break]
Ouch.[break][break]
“Don’t freak out, Lils! I’m okay!”[break][break]
He manages to catch himself somewhat, but he still smushed the side of his cheek while going down. Despite the pain in his face, Toshiaki ’s quick to stumble back up, steadying his balance and already giving it a second attempt.[break][break]
“Bend down slightly, toes inward..”[break][break]
Oh? Looks like he has it this time![break][break]

[attr="class","hanatext"]Whether it's his reassurance or simply her failure to react, Lilith doesn't quite freak out. More so blink in surprise before promptly reaching out to help stabilise him as he stands back up.

"That was... impressive." Is the first word that comes to mind. "I've never seen anyone do that before."

Not that she'd ever had much of a chance to partake in such leisurely activities.

Still, she watches him close this time, ready to catch him should he somehow make that same mistake.

"Easy... you're doing well."

“I’m told I have a knack for knockin’ the socks off of people with my stupidity!”[break][break]
He says so easily, as if not at all an insult toward himself and more of an achievement. Her gentle guiding hand reassures him and makes him feel safe, causing a soft smile to spread across his lips. A grin bright, like sunshine overpowering gloomy clouds.[break][break]
“I bet you by the end of the day I could carve an eight in the ice. A figure eight. That’s what it’s called, right?”

Not only has he knocked the socks right off her, he's stolen her words off her tongue. And yet, he smiles as if he's done nothing wrong, a mischievous little puppy that she can't get mad at. A blink, and she's refocused. Ready for whatever comes next.

"Yeah, well... let's just work on getting you moving without falling first." A small step back, a light push off her front foot, and she begins to slide back rather slowly with Toshiaki in tow. "Small steps. Both feet on the ground when you just want to slide forwards."
