anyone can control froslass of course

Anasui hisses loudly as he tanks another blow for Robin but, thankfully, he's still standing. The bird turns to Froslass to try and keep her attention, and he can see Robin behind Froslass about to end this. He holds his breath and-

"What? Catrina!" Anasui yells, eyes wide.

Froslass turns, eyes wide. However, she's already haggard from the onslaught from Robin and Anasui, so she doesn't have the strength to counter. Instead, she instinctively catches Catrina, though she has... no idea what's going on.

Catrina's time to shine! UP GOES THE CHEESIEST THING I HAVE EVER WROTE FOR HER

[gimmeeyeballs]

Catrina didn't see the confused look on Froslass's face as she catches the weirdo candle, all Catrina saw was cotton candy pink clouds in a tequila sunrise sky with rose petals blowing about! HER BELOVED IS HOLDING CATRINA!

Oh this is the moment! CATRINA CAN FEEL IT IN HER WICK!!! TIME TO MAKE THAT SAPPY AND SOGGY LOVE CONFESSION!

"I LOVE YOU, FROSLASS!! PLEASE, NO MORE!"

Catrina does a dramatic swoon in Froslass's arms...

Froslass is stunned, and reels back in reaction, shrinking down and collapsing to one hypothetical ghostly knee as waves of energy flow off of her. All Robin can do is stare on in complete bafflement as Catrina somehow against all odds manage to melt the heart of this icy queen.

Robin turns to Anasui. "Is that really...?" She doesn't even know how to finish the thought.

[dripdrive]

"I have no idea," Anasui replies immediately, looking past Robin to stare at the ghostly duo. He purses his beak together, unsure what to make of things.

Then, Anasui roughly throws up his wings, making the bird-approximation of throwing his hands up in exasperation. Whatever! He's seen weirder. He's just irritated that Catrina got... exactly what she wanted the whole time.

However, while irate, Anasui does notice that they're suddenly not alone. Now that the Snow warning was clearing, he can see other groups he recognises. Had they all been fighting Froslass too?

"...We'll figure out what happened after. For now we have to decide... do we finish the job or bring her back to Skull Town for interrogation?"

[gimmeeyeballs]

"....YOU FUCKING LET MY GIRL FROSLASS LIVE DAMN IT!"

That was all the input Catrina needed to contribute there upon hearing that question from Anasui as she clutches the unconscious Froslass (or at least attempts it, there's only so much stubby wax arms can do).

It takes Catrina a moment or two to even register that there are others here...where the hell did all these weirdoes come from anyways!?

"...SHIT WERE THEY ALL WATCHING THIS!?"
