The Body Heat Meme




Post with your character! They're now stuck in a very cold place of your choice. It can be anything, such as a freezing chamber, a cavern or a small cabin in the midst of a blizzard. The choice is up to you.
Comment around! Now your character has some company in this bone-chilling environment. The two of them share two things in common: clothes completely unfitting for this weather (be they summer clothes or even lingerie) and a blanket.
A blanket? Yes, just one warm blanket and no other ways to escape the cold. The two of them will have to share it in order to stay alive in this weather. Don't worry, you're sure to find a common language in this terrible situation!
So, uh, have fun, I suppose. Try to not freeze to death!
Protip: friction and body heat are both excellent ways to fend off cold.

...oh.

Arcee's taken off guard by Hiccup's question, finding herself speechless at first. By the way her eyes sort of dart back and forth, it almost looks like she's trying to figure out how to even answer that.

Finally she looks away and decides just to answer that in the simplest way she knows how.]

I haven't had a home in a long time.

[It's Hiccup's turn to be speechless. He winces and slowly looks away, biting his lip. After a long, strained pause he murmurs.]

I....I'm sorry.

[Like he has anything to apologize for, and like that HELPS at all. ...but he doesn't know what else to say.]

[robotfightclub]

[There's a long sigh. As much as she'd love to go on an angry rant right now, it's not like it's Hiccup's fault. Asking about people's pasts is just a completely normal thing to do no matter who or what you are, human or...whatever.]

It's fine.

[Not really.]

You didn't know.

[trainsurdragons]

[Of course, but that doesn't make him feel any better about the situation. Not having a home....has to be hard. He felt out of place in his own home for years, but at least he had one to call his own.]

Well...uhm...

[He sits there for a moment, mentally wrestling to figure out a way to salvage the conversation.]

....are you.........f-feeling a bit warmer?

[Nope, not smooth. Not at all.]

[robotfightclub]

[It gets even better when you have to stay on a completely different planet home to a race only a fraction of your size and you're forced to hide the whole time.

...Not that she's going to share that anytime soon.

Instead, she appreciates the topic change and even manages a smile. Thank you for not digging any further into it, Hiccup. If anything, she has a lot more respect for him now.]

You know what? I think I am.

...Thanks.

[trainsurdragons]

[It's no problem, really. He knows what it feels like, to not really want to talk about your past. It...hurt sometimes, and he knew talking about his own was the last thing he wanted to do, despite how good things turned out for him in the end- ..relatively speaking.

He smiles back at her slightly.]

You're welcome.

[Then he chuckles a bit.]

I'm...I'm glad Gomamon is asleep. ....you don't want to know what he would have probably started talking about.
