My head shakes when I sleep too long, And my mom cries when I sing this song
Maybe her nephew was there, maybe he wasn't. Hester never got the chance to actually look for him, immediately distracted by the sound of smashing ice, and, more importantly, the source of the smashing ice. She pauses, content to sit and watch from a distance, though the universe has other plans. the distance she has from the smashing ice starts to very quickly close, catching Hester off guard enough that there's no chance of getting out of the way.
The ice never gets a chance to hit her though, stopping just short and melting away into nothing. And there, on the other side of it, her saviour. "I'm so sorry!" Hester shouted, moving around the edge of the training field so she didn't have to shout quite as much. "It happened so fast, I'm usually so much better at not... being in the way, I guess."
A laugh bubbles out of her, a little nervous, as Hester falls into an almost expectant silence, looking up at the other woman with a sparkle in her eyes. She was so cool.
