"It's freezing!"
"Urgh, its that blasted Jack Frost again."
"Why can't he just tone down the cold?"
Feeling an uncomfortable lack of warmth; chilled.
"Whoa, Jack, you're freezing!" Tooth exclaims thoughtlessly. Having a temperature lower than the normal temperature of the human body.
"I'm always like that," Jack says impassively.
"You're gonna give someone frostbite," Bunny mutters. "Can you stop making it so damn cold?"
Cold. Jack has always been cold.
"No," Jack says, his voice like ice. Lacking in passion, emotion, enthusiasm. "If you don't like the cold, you don't like me."
"Then I bloody hate you!" Bunny snaps. "Now quit making it so freezing!"
"I can't," he says coldly. "I guess we were never friends if you can't accept what I really am."
"And what might that be?" Bunny is irritated and angry from the low temperature. Tooth is distraught but cannot bring herself to do anything.
"I am Winter. I am Cold."
"Then get out! No one likes winter anyway!"
Jack's expression hardens and his eyebrows set themselves in a glare. "Winter doesn't need approval. Winter doesn't need belief. Winter is." Jack freezes Bunny's ears together before the window shatters and Wind-North rushes in, sucking him outside into a blizzard of cold fury.
Jack wants to sob into his hands but he can't dredge up the care. Not affectionate, cordial, or friendly; unresponsive.
Jack regrets memorizing the dictionary definition of cold.
