Claudia had been feeling rather bored sitting around in the dorms with nothing to do and ended up wandering through the parts of the facility the experiments were aloud to enter. The end of her adventure had found her in the Water works. She wasn't aloud down here very frequently, being an ice experiment she tended to freeze over the pools. Claudia stood out in the room, a Sea of blue with the exception of her bright red sweater, her blond hair hanging loosely around her shoulders.
She stood at the very edge of the pool wondering what would happen when she touched the waters surface. Claudia crouched on the ledge of the pool and dipped her fingers in the relativly warm (in comparison to her at any rate)water, watching as the surface turned to a thick layer of ice around her hand. "Interesting...", She said to herself, pulling her hand from the pool, "Maybe..." Claudia stood upright and kicked off her shoes. She pulled her read sweater over her head and pulled down her black leggings throwing them over by her shoes leaving her in just her lacy red underwear.
Claudia touched the tip of her toe to the surface of the water curiously before stepping down on to the surface all together, The Ice that formed managed to support her weight. She took a step forward and was still supported. "...I wonder how far out I can go...", She said to herself; Claudia had never tested her abilities like this before. She continued to walk out to a point where the water was about twenty feet deep before stopping, it was taking all of her control to stay on the surface without freezing the entire pool over at this point.
"I think I can keep going..." She trailed off.

Wormwood yawned, giving his wings a large stretch as he walked down the hallways. He pulled his wings in close, folding them against his back, the hallway was growing too narrow to have them open. There was hardly anywhere big enough for his wings, except for the pool. The Water Works was a huge room, bigger than a foot ball field with a roof that was really high, high enough to fly at any rate.
He felt his heart beat pick up speed as he neared the pool. He stepped into the room and spread his wings with a big woosh and started running to gain speed for take off. Then he saw the girl standing on the surface of the water in nothing but red underwear. He miss-stepped, his foot sliding out from under him and he crashed ungracefully down on the tiles. The air was knocked out of his lungs for a moment. All he could do was stare and blush. The blush started at his cheeks, then made it's way down to his neck and up to the tip of his ears.
"I do...." He started softly. He cleared his throat and tried again. "I Do say..." He said louder this time, his voice echoing through the room. "That that is rather blasphemous...."
He averted his eyes and stood up slowly he unbuttoned his shirt and pulled it off. He walked to the edge of the pool and that's when he noticed that it was ice. But he didn't trust crossing it... he couldn't swim. "Here..." He said holding out his shirt and keeping his eyes on the ground. Mustn't look...that's lustful... and lust is bad. No. No. No.
"You should put a shirt on..."

Claudia's concentration broke when Wormwood made his...entrance, She turned on the spot almost losing her balance on her small ice platforms. Her shock caused a blanket of very thick Ice to shot out over the entire pool. "Fuck!" Claudia shouted, "They'll totally know I was here now."
A not so happy Claudia stormed to the shallow end of the pool and step up on to the tiles. She paced in circle at the edge running her cold hands through her frosty blond hair "Shit. Shit. Shit. SHIT. Hayes is gonna lock me up this time! Fuuuck! I don't want the chip!", Fuming she turned to Wormwood finally acknowledging his presence.
"I don't want your damn shirt!" She growled, pressing her hand against Wormwood's forearm and pushing it back into his chest. Of course because Claudia was so angry, her hands were very, very cold. Most likely to leave frost bite. Of course The Ice Queen couldn't help but find the fact that he was uncomfortable amusing... She rested her hands on her hips and leaned her weight into one leg. With a graceful neck movement she threw her hair back over her shoulders and Looked him over with her cold grey eyes.
"You act like you've never seen a woman before." The Ice Queen laughed stepping in closer to Wormwood, pressing her ice cold body against his, a sadistic grin on her face. The Ice Queen enjoyed messing with people far to much...

Wormwood jumped slightly as the water creaked, turning to ice in a moment; all radiating from where the woman stood. She then started swearing and Wormwood was going to say something, but then she stomped over and touched him.
Pain swelled where she was touching him but then it went numb. He looked down at his arm, where his skin had gone paler. But as he watched it regained it's colour and the frost bite healed over. "You're very cold..." He said, stating the obvious. His wide, pale grey eyes met her cold dark ones. He shivered. "Of course I've seen a woman before." He said defiantly. "Just....not with such...err...little clothing." He looked up at the ceiling, afraid that if he looked down, his eyes would wander before finding the tiles. Then she pressed up against him.
"Ah!" He exclaimed, stepping back.
Wormwood found himself against the wall. "That's inappropriate!" He exclaimed, his eyes wider than ever. His curly hair was a mess around his face. He raised a hand and brushed the curls out of his eyes. "You...shouldn't.... uh, touch..." He stammered. "People like...that. It's.... not right."
He was blushing even deeper now. And he was regaining the warm in his chest. "Please.... Don't do it again..." He said, looking down at his feet. His hands wrung each other restlessly and he hoped she's leave him alone. He was getting an odd feeling that he didn't like and he was sure it was sinful. He held out his shirt again. "I really think you ought to put a shirt on..." He muttered, not looking up at the woman.

"Like What?" The Ice Queen laughed, "Like this!?" She asked, running her hand along Wormwood's chest and down to his belt line; not going further quite yet. She stepped into him again, this time The Ice Queen reached around and unclasped her bra letting the red piece of lace fall to the ground; What did she care if Wormwood saw? She was stuck here in this god damned facility and she'd probably never see the man she loved ever again anyways...
Claudia's heart sank upon this realization, she stepped away from Wormwood and picked up her most recently shed article of clothing and proceeded to stumble back to her clothing. The temperature in the room began to fall rather rapidly as her thoughts consumed her. Claudia began to Shiver as she pulled the sweater over her body trying to regain some heat.
She didn't know where she was, she didn't quite know how long she'd been here for, did he know what happened to her? Did he miss her like she missed him? Claudia rubbed her arms, now huddled on the ground, Knees curled up against her chest. Snow began to fall in the room as tears began to stream down the girls face, each freezing as it reached her chin. Claudia began to sob, why wasn't she strong enough to leave? How much longer would it take!?

He tried to pull back again as her hand trailed over his skin, leaving him shivering and cold. "Yes! Just like that!" When her hand traveled even lower, he quickly crossed his arms in front of his hips. "Please! Don't...."
Wormwood quickly looked away when she dropped her bra and tried to say something, but the words just wouldn't form themselves on his tongue. But then...she pulled away, dressing quickly. The room's temperature dropped steadily as the girl grew more and more upset and snow started to fall. Wormwood actually smiled a little and held out a hand, catching a snowflake on his palm. It melted quickly and he sighed. Maybe he should comfort her or something?
The angel pulled on his shirt first and then slowly made her way over to her, careful not to slip in the puddles that were now slick ice. He crouched down next her, spreading a wing over her to keep the snow off. He rested a hand on her shoulder and kept it there even though she was so cold it burnt.
"Hey...." He said softly.
"It's...going to be okay."
He pulled the girl into an awkward hug. He wrapped his wings around her and sighed. She was freezing, but it wasn't like he was going to freeze to death...he had regenerative healing...."I mean... It's not that bad... and God has a plan for everyone."

Claudia was shivering as the room's temperature continued to drop, The light snowfall beginning to pick up into flurries. She continued to sob as Wormwood pulled her into a hug... The hug made her feel even worse; reminded of a lost love again. She pulled away from him, a scowl on her sad face. "Don't touch me.", Claudia spat, Her cold grey eyes devoid of any warmth. Still, Claudia listened to him all the same.
He tried to articulate comforting words, though they didn't help the sobbing Ice Queen at all. As soon as God was brought into it she snapped once more. "WHAT THE FUCK DOES GOD HAVE TO DO WITH IT!?" She shrieked, the flurries in the room swirling violently as the temperature got even lower. "Like GOD planned for us to be turned into....INTO FREAKS! There is no god!"

Wormwood pulled away. "There is TOO a God." He muttered, sitting down heavily a few feet from her. "Maybe he didn't plan on it, but it happened! But he's still watching over you! God watches over everyone! How can you say he doesn't exist! I know for a FACT that he exists!" Tears were rising to Wormwood's grey eyes. He pulled his knees up to his chest and sniffled. "He exists..." He finished weakly. "I was...just trying... to make you feel better." He paused for a moment. "I guess I'm just making it worse. I'm sorry. I should just go..." He stood up to leave but couldn't bring himself to do it right away. He looked at Claudia for a long time a frown on his face and then turned to leave he walked carefully over the icy ground and didn't trip at all. He made it to the door when it suddenly swung open and smashed him in the face. He went down like a rock.
Aries stepped into the room, it was freezing. Ah, it was Claudia. And she was upset. It hurt Aries to see her so and to not be able to comfort her. But he closed his eyes and brought up the temperature of the room until the snow started to melt and it was warm again.
"Hi."
he said softly, walking over to her. He sat down next to her, not touching her, surely he'd burn her because he was keeping the room at a normal temp. "What's wrong?" He asked. "I know we don't talk a lot...so you don't have to tell me if you don't want."
