Freeze the water
Characters: Jake, Eran
When: Saturday, late morning
Location: the pool
Warnings/Rating: None anticipated, but I'll keep you posted
Summary: Jake wonders if he can freeze a pool. Eventually.
Status: Complete
The dinner the night before had been interesting, even if it felt like only half of them had shown up. There'd been decent conversation and he'd liked seeing people around. It was enough to inspire him to propose a card game sometime next week. Right now though, he was kind of interested in seeing if he could get his ice thing to be a trick when he wanted it to be. It had been disappointing when he'd tried to show it off last night only to have it not happen. Like it had stage fright or something. He had a few things in mind he wanted to try, but the first one involved surrounding himself with water. He was coming to realize he couldn't tell when something around him was colder than room temperature. He noticed the hot very well -- he'd found that out on day one of this scenery -- but he suspected his foot could be in a bucket of ice water and it would feel fine to him. Which, he guessed, would take some adjusting to. The hot scenarios were going to be worse for him than everyone else -- but at least he didn't have things growing out of his back. It seemed like a fair trade to him. Clad in just a pair of swim trunks, Jake had paddled around the pool a little, waiting for it to clear out and quiet down. Since he had no idea how to go about triggering his ice thing, he was sort of randomly waving his hands around or cupping his palms together like he was trying to force it out through his hands. Nothing was working though, and he was starting to think maybe it hadn't ever been him. Maybe the producers were just fucking with him like they were apparently fucking with Min and the treadmill. Sighing, he flopped onto his back and considered other possible triggers as he floated around. |
