Lythikos was reassuringly cold, just like the heart of their hostess. Although, she was uncharacteristically warm today, especially where Rick was concerned. The activity for this morning was skating, and that was something that Maxwell was not afraid of getting involved in. What was skating if it wasn't dancing on ice, after all?
The trouble was, nobody really wanted to dance with him. Olivia and Rick were mainly wrapped up in each other; they seemed to have reconnected over the last week. Drake had made himself scarce, he was more into his skiing and was probably practicing while the slopes were quiet. He had managed to entertain Lady Hana for a little while, he was finding her to be a bit of a kindred spirit at these events, similarly out on a limb like he was, but unfortunately he was completely bested by her skating ability. Not much fun.
This afternoon's event was skiing, normally he'd have been down for that, but there was no mobile signal on the slopes, and he had an important appointment at two. With that in mind, he decided to skip this activity, hoping like mad that nobody noticed his absence. He made his way up to his guest room, and sent the first text.
There wasn't much of a pause before her reply.
Well, she had a point.He contemplated his answer. He'd have felt like he was missing out if he had gone skiing? Maybe not.
