The Body Heat Meme



Post with your character! They're now stuck in a very cold place of your choice. It can be anything, such as a freezing chamber, a cavern or a small cabin in the midst of a blizzard. The choice is up to you.
Comment around! Now your character has some company in this bone-chilling environment. The two of them share two things in common: clothes completely unfitting for this weather (be they summer clothes or even lingerie) and a blanket.
A blanket? Yes, just one warm blanket and no other ways to escape the cold. The two of them will have to share it in order to stay alive in this weather. Don't worry, you're sure to find a common language in this terrible situation!
So, uh, have fun, I suppose. Try to not freeze to death!
Protip: friction and body heat are both excellent ways to fend off cold.

[keith liked to keep his lion stocked with all the necessities he'd need to survive if he got stranded from the team for a long period of time. so of course he had food, water, clothes, a blanket, and a pillow. he, however, was not counting on getting stranded with lance inside his lion. so of course he did not have the necessities to lend out to lance. well-- okay they'd be fine with food and water. the clothing he had was pushing it a little, but it was doable. but he only had one blanket.

and of course, to preserve the lion's power, he shut it down meaning that it wasn't keeping a decent temperature inside itself. this wouldn't have sucked if they weren't stranded on a planet that was ten billion miles away from the sun. with a sigh he wanders over to lance and offers him some of the blanket.] I only had the foresight to keep one of these in my lion, so we're going to have to share this if you want to survive.

WE'RE GONNA BOND

[nostalgicas]

[ lance on the other hand... never really considered having backups on his lion. he never really thought he'd be in this sort of situation, but seeing how prepared keith was, he felt a little silly for never have considering it. maybe he'd consider stocking his lion up... once they got out of this predicament at least.

as comfy as his clothes were, the lack of heat was definitely starting to affect him, as he gave a slight shiver. hearing keith approaching, he looked up to him, nose scrunching slightly as he listened to what the other paladin had to say. ]

... well aren't you the thoughtful one. [ ok ok he needs to be more serious. serious situation after all! sighing, he continues ] As long as it keeps us warm enough until the others come get us.

WE'RE GONNA BOND SO HARD!!!!

[gonerouge]

The only thing that's stopping me from keeping this blanket to myself is that we need you to form Voltron. [it also doesn't help that he's.... kind of gotten attached to lance's.... lanceisms. but is he going to say that out loud? hell no.] It should hold until they pick us up though.

YEEEEEEEE

[nostalgicas]

... veeeery thoughtful. [ and he's gotten attached to keith's keithisms!!! it's a mutual feeling! oh no ] Good, cause that's all I care about. [ he pauses a for moment ] ... you did send them a distress signal right. Like... we're not sitting here in a freezing lion robot with them not know we're stranded?

:>

[gonerouge]

Of course I did. [he scoffs.] Who do you take me for, yourself? [and with that he sits down right next to lance. his knee bumping against the other ever so softly as he does.]

[nostalgicas]

[ he makes a face at that reply ] Excuse you, but for your information calling for help would have been the first thing I would have done!

[ he soon pouts, jerking his knee away instantly after they bump. he's... surprisingly feeling less cold now that keith is next to him... but he's def not going to say anything about it. nope. his arms cross as he sulks a bit, before he speaks again ] Well, are you going to share it or not?

[gonerouge]

Well that's good to know, we won't be doomed if I'm ever marooned in some cold place with you. And I am sharing it. [the blanket is just... rather tiny. it's only made for one person yo.]

[nostalgicas]

Yeah, well I hope that never happens! [ YOU'RE BARELY SHARING IT THO KEITH ] And you call that sharing?! The blanket is barely on me!

[gonerouge]

For once I actually agree with you. [he frowns and looks down at the blanket. that is covering both of them. equally.] Yeah, well it's barely on me as well.

[nostalgicas]

[ they're doomed ]

... I don't think this sharing thing is going to work.

[gonerouge]

Don't be ridiculous. We just... need to get closer for it to wrap around us comfortably.

[nostalgicas]

... exactly how close are we talking about?

[gonerouge]

If this isn't good enough to share the blanket between us, then one of us is going to have to sit in the other's lap or something.

[nostalgicas]

Whoa whoa whoa, that's where I cross the line. "Sit in the other's lap"? Are you even listening to yourself?!

[gonerouge]

Then don't complain about how cold you are.

[nostalgicas]

How can I not complain!? [ GRUMBLE GRUMBLE ] There has to be another way to warm up!

[gonerouge]

Well, there is another way. But you're not going to like it.

[nostalgicas]

[ y u gotta say it like that bro ]

... okay. I am reeeeally going to regret this... but... what's the other way.

[gonerouge]

[wait, he honestly doesn't know? how did this guy survive this long?] One of the quickest ways to warm up is to get naked.

[nostalgicas]

[ BY PURE LUCK ]

Nope. Nope. Nadda. Not in a million years!!!

[gonerouge]

And that's exactly why I didn't recommend it! So suck it up buttercup.

[nostalgicas]

[ he lets out a groan ]

How do you even know about that? [ a pause ] Don't tell me you've actually done it before...!?

[gonerouge]

Yes, why? It's been scientifically proven that it helps warm your body temperature.

[nostalgicas]

[ YOU'VE LIVED A WEIRD LIFE KEITH WTF ]

How does being naked help!?

[gonerouge]

If you're cold, then it's a high possibility that the clothing you have on isn't retaining any of your body heat. [he gestures to his clothes that have definitely seen better days.] When a cool body comes into contact with a hot body, some of the warmth will get transferred from the warmer to the colder body.
