Story fragment

So my life's all over the place. I'll post another chapter of something soon, but right now I'm in the phase where, when I finally do get a chance to write, I get sidetracked by fragments of scenes rather than working on the actual chapter.

Eh.

So I offer up a fragment that I like for some reason. Standard I-will-not-kill-you-for-criticizing disclaimer applies. It's from Ice, set at a god-knows-when (or doesn't) future point in the story. Technically, it probably has spoilers just by being a future part, but honestly, Ice is so fragmented and odd that it's not really an issue.
