Posted: June 21st, late afternoon
From: Viktor
Viktor had made his way to one of the local indoor ice rinks, since he had skates. He had no idea why they were so fancy, but he'd shown up wearing them, and he felt more than a little stupid having no idea how to use them.
He still had no idea once he'd gotten there, though. The cool air was much nicer than the heat outside, but he had no jacket, and that was a mistake. Still, there wasn't a lot to do about it now. It wasn't as if he had any idea how to actually maneuver in the skates at all, but he figured he might as well see if he could...stand on them? Maybe?
Not yet, though. He was too taken by the idea of simply shooting them both across the (thankfully empty) ice. Just for the fun of it. Why not?
He turned the phone's camera on and focused it on the skate in his hand, humming a little to himself as he bent over the barrier to throw it somewhat underhandedly.
It didn't go far, and the edge on the toe caught pretty easily. But Viktor only laughed.
"Does anyone know how to do this? I'd try putting them on, but I don't really want to give myself a concussion!"
He probably would anyway. But. An Attempt Was Made to be safe, at least?
"Does anyone want to come join me? This rink is in the center of town and it's nice and cool in here! Bring a jacket, though, unless you like being cold."
Viktor didn't, but he hadn't been in here too long, so he just slid onto the ice and promptly lay down on it like some kind of weird starfish, his spare skate still in his hand and the other halfway across the ice. He didn't look too keen on retrieving it, either.

So he looks at this as a chance to practice.
But what is Viktor doing? Is the man drunk, or is this some quirky aspect of his personality, like his childish joy with the sparklers.
"Those are some very unusual boots. Are they weapons? They certainly look sharp."

He had to think about that for a minute. If he were to put the skates on and then kick someone with a lot of force...
"I'm pretty sure they're called ice skates! I remember watching people dance across the ice on them -"
But no, that felt like a bad thing to remember, although he had no idea why. Still, it didn't stop him from wanting to understand how they worked!

Wait, Viktor is prone on a sheet of ice? "Um, aren't you cold?"
no subject
But he didn't care. And he was cold. And rather uncomfortable.
"I am! I really should have brought a jacket."
