It's my problem, it's my problem

Who: Princess Looma Red Wind and YOU!
Where: Districts 1-3
When: Midday
Summary: Looma's freezing, but decides to go exploring anyway. BECAUSE SHUT UP, SHE CAN TOUGH IT OUT.
Warnings: Once she figures out how to warm up, she probably won't bother asking for permission before just grabbing people to feel warm.

[Anyone out and about today would see the unusual spectacle of a giant four-armed woman in full battle regalia stomping around the city, silently fuming and just generally giving angry glares to the locals. Thankfully, she wasn't doing anything overtly aggressive, just making her intense hatred for her present situation as clear as possible. As if her violent outburst and forcible removal from the welcoming session for the new arrivals hadn't made it clear enough just a few days ago. Of course, something new had been added to the mix lately.

Anyone close enough would notice she was actually shivering. And all four arms were presently crossed and tucked in as close to her body as possible in an attempt to keep warm, with little success. Occasionally, when she thought no one was watching, she even began to slouch over, trying to huddle close to hold in as much heat as possible. While it might have been wiser to simply stay indoors and crank the heat up, she was stubbornly deciding to continue exploring her new surroundings. Not really for pleasure, but because she felt that if she was going to be kept prisoner in this place, she might as well learn the layout of the prison in question.

And maybe find part of it that was a little warmer than the rest. Hopefully because it was on fire, but she didn't believe herself to be that lucky.]

[Well, Looma could find no fault with that logic. Well, beyond the usual "this place is stupid, and everything about that is stupid" angle. But if it worked, it worked.

If it didn't, she'd find someone to beat into the ground.]

Very well then. We shall see if that will actually resolve this problem.

[Considering the significant height difference between the two, she'll hold out one of her lower hands for Freya to take hold of. Despite the fact that the idea of making her jump to try and reach one of the upper ones sounded mildly amusing.

Perhaps she would save that for another time.]

[Jumping is her specialty, but they'll just have to have fun with that later. For now, she takes the offered hand, feeling a bit surprised at the fact that it was the first cool thing she'd felt since that morning.]

Do you feel any difference?

[It took a moment, but she did. Granted, she was impatient enough that after a split second of no change, she almost took to angrily informing Freya of how stupid an idea this was, but once it started working...]

...this is riduculous. Why should touching someone make the temperature change?!

[...she took to angrily informing the world at large of how stupid the idea was instead. Well. At least it wasn't Freya on the receiving end, right?]

[dragoncrest]

For the same reason it supposedly generates energy for this city, I imagine. [It was said in an exasperated tone; she sympathized with Looma's reaction. And she certainly was glad to not to have the princess's anger directed towards her.]

... Perhaps we should find somewhere to sit so we need not remain holding hands like this in the middle of the path.
