Stone Circle Life is a highway

You get my 100th post! <3

The other female greeted Steph excitedly, and it only made Steph more eager to play. She seemed friendly, and Steph always responded well to that. Hi, Aurelia! she replied. She grinned big when she accepted Steph's invitation to play, and Steph decided to show her how to slide.

Okay, so what you do is first get a head start, she explained, moving away from the edge of the frozen lake. Then, you run as fast as you can, and when you step on the ice, you'll just... glide! It seemed simple enough, and Steph probably didn't need to explain it, but she didn't realize that. 

When it seemed Aurelia was ready, Steph made a run for the ice. This time, she kept upright for longer, but she still ended up with her legs splayed by the time she slid to the middle of the water. She turned to see how her playmate fared.
