 t's very, very cold. It's cold enough that you'll see your breath fog in the air before you, that goosebumps appear on your arms and legs and a chill goes up your spine. You're inside, in a huge palace with sweeping arches and rooms, but it's no real shelter from the cold -- it's just as cold inside as out.
There's a throne room, a kitchen, various rooms and even a dungeon to be explored -- and outside, a frigid, frozen garden, a lake that's naturally frozen over, and miles, and miles of snow as far as the eye can see.
But be careful while you explore. The snowflake soldiers are naturally dangerous, but even more dangerous than that...there's that creeping sensation of numbness going up your arm, a pang through your chest, and the slow, slow freezing from the inside out.
Try not to leave any of your friends behind, okay? Even if they might look a bit too uncannily like some of the statues hanging around for decoration when they're frozen over.

Man, this girl is not dressed for the cold. Vriska looks at her, then looks down at the jacket she's wearing, then looks up at her again. The jacket she's wearing is several sizes too big for her as it is, so she sighs and takes it off, pushing it into Lottie's arms. ]
They do. I've been watching them. Come on!
[ Vriska skitters over to the dungeon entrance, peering out beyond it for any trouble. The question makes her glance back, and she considers the keys she's still holding before shaking her head. ]
Nah. I'd rather hang onto them in case those frigid assholes lock up somebody else. Think you can hang onto them for me? [ She holds them out and beckons Lottie over at the same time. ]

And then, she shuffles even closer to her and the entrance at her gesture, wanting to stay on her good side since she did just rescue her. ] Yeah, sure, of course! [ The cold of the keys do nothing to deter her from grabbing them head on, forcing them into any pocket on her person to be as speedy and reliable as possible. ]
If you need me to do anything, just let me know, okay?
[ Her words are not as loud as she'd usually allow herself, mainly because she doesn't want to be rude. Also because she doesn't want to ruin this escape with being overeager. ]
no subject
[ Vriska flashes her a grin, and it doesn't seem to be mean. After a moment's more consideration, she'll lead them out beyond the dungeon, glancing around as they go. ]
More seriously, just stay close. I am not a pro at this rescuing thing, so we might just need to book it at some point. Hey, can you run?
no subject
She follows behind her, and generally lets Vriska take the lead for a lot of what's going on since this is completely out of her realm. All she can see is empty hallways, but maybe she can detect something.. more?? ]
Uh.. Not very fast. [ It doesn't benefit her to lie, here, so she reluctantly tells the truth. ] But if there's a room nearby, I could hide?
no subject
What? I'm not gonna leave you. [ she's .... PRETTY sure she shouldn't just ditch someone she's trying to rescue. Vriska shakes her head and focuses ahead again.
Shouto and Izuku... they wouldn't let anything happen to this girl. ]
You know what? Don't worry about it. I'm gonna protect you! [ a big, sunny grin. ] Just stick with me!
no subject
What.. Really?
[ Some of Vriska's enthusiasm bleeds into Lottie, her smile (while awkward) seems a bit more hopeful. At least she won't die, today...!! Definitely at some point by this weird magic hypothermia, but she gets to live for now by the grace of this stranger. ] You're the best!
And since we're going to be together, [ A pause. She's not sure about the time frame and she doesn't want to seem too forward.. ] right now, I'm Lottie.
