Prep Work with a Potential Friend (Canary)

[Canary La Muerte]

She came back to reality, her two toned eyes looking at him as she sat back and thought for a bit. "Flakes is no good. In this generation a flake is someone who doesn't show up. It has to be positive just as it has to be unique." she pointed out and gently drummed her finger tips against her notebook, her right hand reached up to brush the bangs to the side to try and cover her dark blue eye while her light blue eye looked around as she thought about this. Her mind was whizzing with ideas... she was so excited for this even it had to be very unique and different so that way everyone would remember it and they would all want to go.

"But you are right... we do need something very special. The Snow Ball? Snow Light... Frost Ball... Frost Masquerade.. The Snow Inn... Frozen Dreams..." she started to mumble as her brain thought for a bit and she turned to him. "We could write down a list of different words and try to match them together and go through it like list A will be the theme like Frost, Frosty, Snow, Snowball, Frozen, and stuff like that and list B will be Ball, Masquerade, Dreams, something to represent the dance. What do you think?" she gave him a warm smile, dazzling at the idea of the name alone.

He was an accepting person and nodded in agreement once again. "You're right, flake would sound misleading to some." He scratched the crown of his head through his woolen cap thinking, one step at a time, name, decor, foods, music, etc. He sighed in mild frustration, this girl in front on his is determined and she got her head on straight but his mind is racing on several things all at once. Apollo needed to focus better, he knew he could do it he just needed to calm down and thing about one topic at a time.

He listened to the list of name Canary was listing off and liked a few but didn't like some other but then she mentioned maybe a combination of 2 or more names. "That sounds like a great idea." He quickly got to his notebook and flipped to a clean page and writing all the options down and then combining the names of the first two and then the next two, eventually he had a lengthy list of possible options. There was one that had stood out to him the most, he tapped his writing utensil on it, "The Arctic Dreams Masquerade or maybe The Frozen Dreams Masquerade." He was throwing a few names he had come up with into the ring of names to show that he was making an serious effort on the subject. Not that he wasn't before but he felt as if writing it all down would prove it more.

As they discussed names she would help him name off some of the things and by the end of the list she was tilting back in her chair, legs on the floor and wobbled back and forth. Drawing a slow deep breath she put her legs back onto all four and gazed at him. "Honestly I think I like Arctic Dream Masquerade best. Frozen has too many attachments to the that damn Disney movie." she smirked a bit and slowly stretched her arms out in front of him before flicking her bangs again. It had been a bit of an adventure so far, all of this thinking was a lot to do.

"And... I am really craving some icy go gurt right now.. strawberry. What do you say we move this to the cafeteria? We could get a snack and start going over meal ideas for the cafeteria to do. And you know.. for dreams I think maybe we could do a multitude of colors.. Blue and silver with white and purple and gold with white so the white ties it in." she scribbled in her notebook again and then closed it up, placing it into her bag and then rose to her feet, once again stretching her body as she let out a big yawn.

He nodded with a slight laugh, "I can't stand that movie, I could do that same thing as Elsa." He began to freeze the water in his bottle as he touched the cap. He had his own opinion regarding Disney but that was best left unsaid.

"Food does sound good right about now." He began the process of collecting his papers and closing his laptop making sure everything he had was there and put where it needed to be. Not like there was any order to his bag anyways, people would tell him to organize his stuff but any time he did he wouldn't be able to find anything he actually needed. Apollo just made sure he knew where everything was so he would know where is was whenever he needed it. He picked up his bag and put it over his shoulder. "After you, Miss." He gestured towards the door letting the girl take the lead.

She glanced to the bottle as it froze over, her eyes watching and her smile faded just a bit before she gave a slight head shake. The look was a strange thing, almost like she had envy of what he was doing. "Your power is beautiful... with your help I am sure we could make beautiful decorations for our winter dance." she turned, heading out of the library and towards the cafeteria.

As the reached it she went to the cold items and grabbed some strawberry gogurt before also getting an oat bar and a strawberry soda. She didn't need to pay, her adopted family was the founder of the school and also the highest donators. She headed over to a table in the corner near a large open window and set down her book bag on the seat beside her before pulling out her notebook again along with the gel pen. She organized her stuff a bit more and drew a breath before turning to see what Apollo had gotten for a snack.

Apollo shrugged slightly, "Its just as good as the freezers in the dorms" He laughed lightly at his joke. "With the ability to freeze things, I do not have the ability to regulate my own body temperature." He calmly and gingerly touched Canary's arm, it was a biting cold or painful but it was a bone deep cold and he felt all the time. He pulled his arm back not to try and make her cold.

He flushed slightly, "It's a curse but we all have problems to bear, don't we?" He smiled hoping to calm himself a bit more to cover up his reddening checks. He probably looked like that damn Rudolph the reindeer, his skin was slightly paler than a normal humans so anytime he blushed or became nervous, his cheeks would like up like a beacon in the night.

She looked at his touch, then up at his face as she gazed at him quietly for a moment, drawing a slow deep breath and contemplated for a moment. "My powers kill people. I'm a jynx.. I take away people's luck and terrible things happen to them. Curse is an understatement when it comes to powers.." her smile was still there and she was trying to be open about herself, but there was a deep pain to her words. She had only told him her first name, not mentioning that when Aurelian had adopted her the Mexican government hadn't allowed her to change her last name. The name the entire village had given her to signify what she was. La Muerte. Death.

"Can you... freeze this for me?" she grinned and lifted the gogurt up to him, now trying to change topics. "I love frozen gogurt but all they have is refrigerated. I really love anything strawberry but strawberry frozen yogurt is just amazing! Or strawberry pop tarts with strawberry ice cream in the middle!" she laughed again, trying to suppress that icky feeling in her stomach when she remembered her powers, or where she had come from.
