Iceman has posed:
It was night in the park, and it was mostly empty though there were still a few people around in some of the more popular areas. Though in a corner of the park, Bobby was alone though all around him on the flat ground was a thin layer of ice. Next to the ice was a radio playing music, and the guy on the ice was skating around it like he was just having a fun time moving in time with the song. He wears a shirt that shows the face of an actor with a word bubble over it that says.. "I was Frozen today!", and he just wore some confortable clothes with it though he has the silver necklace on.

The night itself was warm, and there is no-way there would be ice here, nor is it cold up until you get to the ice itself. This doesn't seem to bother him, though as he whips around in a jump landing smothly on the ice again.. After he takes a bow, which there seems to be clapping noise from the ice... "Thank-you... thank-you.. Your too kind!"

Adrien Agreste (142) has posed:
It was liberating, being able to roam about a city and not be always all the time worried about supervillains. Yes, this was New York and a hotbed of superpowered shenanigans, but there were also a host of superheroes in town.

Thus, tonight was another night of 'no classes or early meetings tomorrow so lets play'! Er... rather, it was another night of parkour after dark.

Chat Noir lept from the rooftops and into the tree branches, green eyes glinting, almost glowing, as he leapt from branch to branch. He wasn't it. But if she caught up to him, he would be!

Music.

Curious, Chat Noir deverts toward it, thinking he's gotten enough of a lead to spare a glance before he has to move on and find a hiding place.

When did 'tag' turn into hide and go seek? No idea. Probably about hte same time parkour turned into tag.

Marinette DuPain (143) has posed:
Marinette had, of course, chased after Chat. It was all part of the game. Part of what had her laughing as they went from building to building tagging each other. And then he disappeared into the trees and blue eyes narrowed.

Instead of following, she dropped to the ground, circled and came in at the other end of where she saw him go in. "Here kitty kitty," the young woman in the skin tight ladybug themed costume calls as she closes in on Bobby's position.

Music?

Curious, Ladybug wanders that way. She's willing to bet curiosity will get the cat too.

Iceman has posed:
Something strange happends, as he listens through his song, some things are happening as now snow in this area is falling, though it seems localized to this small area. The snow in the area was gathering into piles falling in wierd directions once they are under the tree level. The person skating around has no idea he is being watch, as he dances around to the music for a moment later before a voice calls out close to him.. "You should try it.." as it seems the snow has come together to for another him. It doesn't see you either as Bobby speaks to it.. "You know I am.." as he gathers a little speed.

As he gains enough speed a ramp apears infront of him, and up he goes.which seems perfectly planned. Though as Bobby would soon come to realize, and maybe those that saw him go flying might realize, it wasn't 'straight' up. As he starts to go flying into the trees.. Going through the foliage, and the brushes it seems things slow down for a moment as Chat sees maybe arm lengths away Bobby rockets past him that speed carrying him. Chat would see the curious, but confused look on his face as he spots him. He looks to be waving with a grin though, as he is already getting further away.

Adrien Agreste (142) has posed:
In that final tree so near to where the music is, Chat watches the ice and the snow. He murmurs something, in french, the sound of confusion easy to hear in his voice. He watches the young man 'talk' to himself and then skate at a ramp tht materialized and then come zooming through the air in his general direction. Chat Noir flattens himself against the trunk of the tree. Green eyes watch Bobby before Chat turns and leaps after.

Normal human! Going flying! Must try to catch!

"Bugaboo!" Chat calls out, not sure where Ladybug is, but hoping that the innocent person is lucky and one of Paris' heroes can catch him.

Marinette DuPain (143) has posed:
She hadn't quite made it to Bobby's location but she was near enough to hear Chat's call of... Her eyes roll at that particular variation of her name. And it's enough to give her a general direction to go in. So, yoyo whipped out, she pulls herself up into the trees and is soon hopping and swinging from branch to branch.

"Chaton?" She knew the playful tone of his voice and that tone wasn't in his call out to her. It meant the game was over. The problem was, she still wasn't precisely sure of where he went or why the game suddenly ended.

Iceman has posed:
The man watched as Chat hopped after him, and thought about falling further to give them a chance to catch him being the hero, but the ground was getting close. A slide appears below him, and his direction changes spining him past a tree as a small wall appears on the side then turns suddenly to go around in a spiral down to the ground. The slide turns to water, as he stands there looking up at the person that was jumping his way. Though he does speak to him.. "Tada! Hello there friend, thanks for the attempt!" he adds with thumbs up.

He hears the other person calling, and smiles. "Listen friend, I didn't know you were out here with someone. You lucky." and gives a wink, looking around.. "Now where did I put that ice pool..."

Adrien Agreste (142) has posed:
The ground was getting close, Chat pushed as fast as he could be he could tell, his fastest wasn't going to be enough. A final leap, clawed hand reaching out to try to grab a leg, a foot, somthing, and Chat watches in... growing confusion as the slide appears. It's enough of a distraction that Chat doesnt' quite balance check after his attempt to grab Flying Through The Air Man, and the black cat suit blonde falls forward, arms pin-wheeling, into an ungraceful tumble on the ground... at Bobby's feet.

"Me-ouch. My pride," he laments, sprawled out on his back in the grass near some mud that wasn't there before. Green slitted eyes look up at the man now and blink once.

"Me? Lucky? HA!" Chat Noir laughs at this, then calls out: "Over here, My Ladybug."

Marinette DuPain (143) has posed:
Drippinh from the tress, Ladybug jogs up to where Chat amd Bobby are.

"Are you alright, Chat Noir?" The answer better be yes because Ladybug looks like she's about ready to attack Bobby, completely misreading the situation. "What happened?"

Her kitty. No one hurts her kitty.

Iceman has posed:
Bobby looks at chat he does give a little wince when he hits.. "Oh.. dang, umm... Sorry bout that!" and rubs the back of his head looking down at him with a grin. Bobby apologizing for what he did when Chat is on the ground a little bit jumbled it is no small wonder, but Bobby does look up at her with a grin, though seeing the look on his face he says in a lower tone.. "Though I think your friend there is.. yea Frost has given me that look before." and he backs up from them though still smiling. "Name's Iceman... Nice to meet you, and your friend. Whatcha doing out here at this time of night? Your not trying to mug me are ya?" he is talking quickly, as he watches Ladybug backing up.

Adrien Agreste (142) has posed:
"Aww. I love it when you worry about me," Chat Noir quips at Ladybug from the ground, peering at her with all the adoration of an upside down kitty cat before he flips himself to his feet with equally feline grace.

"I'm purrrrrfect meow, My Lady," he replies once on his feet, green eyes on Ladybug. His smile is broad before he turns to Iceman.

"It's cool, dude," he puns with a cattish cackle before he waves the 'are you mugging me' off with a clawed hand.

"Nah. Chill out." Get it!? Iceman. Chill out. Chat grins and looks at Ladybug, waiting.

Marinette DuPain (143) has posed:
And Ladybug immediately relax as Chat proves he's fine and that Iceman isn't any threat.

"Really? Do I look like I'm about to mug you? I'm standing here asking if my friend is alright. How does that read as a mugging?" Okay, so maybe Ladybug is a little extra sassy tonight. Too much coffee? Not enough sleep? Who knows.

Either way, the yoyo is withdrawn and wrapped back around her waist. "I'm Ladybug. This is Chat Noir." And then those blue eyes slide to Chat and roll. "You just can't help yourself, can you?"

Iceman has posed:
Bobby's smile doesn't break, as he nods to chat, and thinks about what Remy tought him about running into new people thinking this is a good time to try it out. A white top hat pops in over his head falling that little bit so it is tilted. It seems to be made of snow, and ice though he looks at Ladybug, "Good evening Miss, and welcome to my little part of the forest." he offers a hand, as he gives a bow swoping the top hat to the side. "Would you like to see a winter wonderland, in the middle of a hot day?"

He had learned flair is the key when meeting new people, though it was from Remmy so it was a bit titled. He grins at chat, "Then maybe you can explain why you are dressed like a cat hoping through the tree's this night? Or at very least a name.

As he waves a hand a path of snow shows the way, though it is melting it will not last long. He seems to have more of his attention elsewhere, Chat would know it is the ice he was skating on, though if one looks now the constructs are gone. The temperature hasn't changed around either of you it is still the same it was, though if one approaches the hat it would give off some cold.

Adrien Agreste (142) has posed:
"I'd rather help you, M'Lady," Chat retorts on a too eager grin at Ladybug. He waits a moment beore looking back over at Iceman, wathing the white hat poof into existence. Green eyes track the bow, judging it against his own. Behind him, the every tip of his tail quivers side to side. On his head, his ears rotate backwards slightly.

"I'm Chat Noir," says the blonde in the black leather cat suit. it's a deadpan repetition of Ladybug having just introduced him as well as a note of it explaining exactly why he was leaping through the trees in the middle of the night. His hands come up to rest at his hips, shoulders broadening; a cat puffing himself up.

Marinette DuPain (143) has posed:
Ladybug giggles at Chat, bluebell blue eyes sparkling. "Do I need help?" A brow arches at her black cat before her eyes are drawn to Bobby. "You know... I'd have to ask but... I kinda doubt this is what winter in Wonderland looks like..." Her head tilts. "We should ask... Neat trick with the snow though."

And then her eyes go back to Chat as he reintroduces himself and she reaches out for his hand. "Now... We should talk about that nickname you insist on using... And where is the snow going?"

Iceman has posed:
Bobby turns facing away from them as they talk. "Well Chat Noir, and Ladybug." he smiles, and kicks off, as his slide starts again just over the ground. It is nice, and wide for people to stand on, and slightly slanted for them to gain momentem. "Get on, it is fine.. its this way." as he slides away into the forest. He turns before you lose sight of him behind a tree, waving both of you on. "Come find out, but I have already told you.." and sight line would be broken.

If one were to follow him, the area would open up, and there would be a large flat sheet of ice with snow falling from just the tree line just leaving a light snow covering. There are no constructs or anything, but the trees fill with snow, as the man skates around backwards as he watches the opening they would come through. He speaks up, louder if he wasn't followed. "Tada... Just as promised."

Adrien Agreste (142) has posed:
"Is he... ice skating... on grass?" Chat Noir murmurs to Ladybug, leaning toward his partner though his eyes stay on Iceman. Not sure, the black cat turns his green eyes on his red-clad partner. A shrug of his shoulders is given, the wordless sense of: Well, I'll go if you wanna go.

Marinette DuPain (143) has posed:
Ladybug blinks fr a moment. "I... Think so?" And then there's a faint nod. She's so not riding the ice though. That's an accident waiting to happen and she is very edgy around high speeds and trees these days, thank you. "Might as well."

And so, the pair follow Iceman back to his original area. "It's pretty." She smiles gently. "I'm still not sure this is what Wonderland looks like during the winter though." Her eyes slide towards Chat. "We should text Vorpal and ask. No one would know better than the Cheshire Cat himself!"

As she weaves her fingers with Chat's, she makes sure to steer clear of the ice. "This is your power, huh? Control over ice?" It's nifty! "There's a lot of powered people in this city..."

Iceman has posed:
The guy slides around a bit, and smiles at the two.. "Yea, something like that, usually I am in a room to practice, don't get me wrong it is a big room, but there is something about outside." he gives a chuckle as he looks over at her. "You got stars ahead above you, snow and ice. What more can you ask for right? Despite this other... talking cat?" he shrugs, as he thinks about it. Then he continues, "I get your power, agile, fast, and able to take a fall aperently, Lady Bug how about you?" he asks out of curiousity.

As he passes them again, He shrugs the question of the powered people.. "There are a lot of powered people everywhere if ya know where to look. I mean look here we are in a forest in the middle of New York. Who would of thought you would of found that here." he chuckles to himself "Are you new to the area? Or you just passing through? I mean you are a team right?"

Adrien Agreste (142) has posed:
Following Ladybug through the forest, Chat stops at her side, happily lacing his fingers with hers.

"I could text him. I actually took the time to key his number into my staff," he beams, because this makes perfect sense to Ladybug and really that's all that matters to Chat most days. Bobby's assessment of his powers has Chat rolling his eyes lightly.

"Given this chill? This kitten is feline like he could use a scarf and mittens," Chat quips, eyeing all the snow and the ice and the cold.

Marinette DuPain (143) has posed:
"There's far more to Chat Noir than that," is the immediate response about Iceman's summation of Chat's powers. "Me? I'm pretty much the same as Chat. I just use a yoyo instead of the pawso--awsome.. awesome Staff." Damnit! Now he has her doing it!

"Ooh! Yes. Take a picture and text him asking if this is what winter in Wonderland looks like! I bet the Caterpillar, the Bread-And_Butterflies and the Rocking-Horse Flies hate it..."

And then she's blinking. "What happened to the scarf you got for your birthday?," is asked before she beams a smile at Bobby. "We're a team, yes. And yes, relatively new."

Iceman has posed:
As Bobby, shakes his head.. "You guys are kinda wierd aren't you? Don't get me wrong that is fine with me.. You are who ya are ya know." he is just skating around till he hears picture. "Whoa.. don't do that." and snaps his fingers again. The snow turns to water, and the pool of ice goes away as he stumbles a bit, staying on his feet on normal ground. "Can't do that.. I mean don't you know not everyone likes us, and if a picture gets out.." he shakes his head. "Nooo thank you!" and chuckles.

Out of no-where he looks up again.. "Oh dang it.. they realized I am gone. Hey listen if your going to be in town we will have to meet up again. Why not we meet up again, and help the city out." he makes a slide, And hops on it as it starts to twist up he looks down at them. "Same place in two weeks.. If you are interested, then will see ya there! Been forever since I fought real thugs!" and with that his slide extends up and away, as he rushes out. He is quite quick, as he goes the slide falling to water, then evaporating into mist as it falls to the ground.

Adrien Agreste (142) has posed:
Aww!! Ladybug stood up for him! Chat beams and then brighter when Ladybug puns. She may have cut herself off and 'corrected' herself, but she punned and he heard it! He leans into her side, nose seeking to brush against a cheek with a soft barely audible between the two of them purr.

And then she's shinying him with taking pictures, and Chat pulls the baton from the small of his back. With a thumb he slides part of it down like one would work a sliding phone, and a pitcure is taken.

"The Cat-erpillar, huh?" he comments as he types with a singple thumb, using what looks like a swipe keyboard, to get his message sent.

"Hmm? The blue one? It's at home in a drawer. Too hot to wear it just yet, but I loved it this past winter," chat replies nonchalantly. He glances up at sudden vanish of the ice and snow.

"Chill out, Olaf. Cheshire Cat is the cat's meow about this stuff," but then Iceman is bugging out... no, he's sliding away (yeah, that's totally better). Chat just shrugs and looks to Ladybug, message being sent.

"Yeah..." he starts only for his pone to beep a response, which he shares with Ladybug.

"Translation?" Chat has not read Alice in Wonderland!?
