Cat managed to wave at Dora anyway, burny hands or no. "Hi Dora." They'd just met up outside so she hadn't had quite a chance to say hi yet, though Alice was all in Captain mode and leading the group, so that worked. Besides, Alice had said that Dora was her best friend, so OBVIOUSLY that meant she was totes awesome too. Obviously. "Here is good." Anywhere was good really, anywhere with a lot of snow. "As long as no one decides to knock over our dudes." Snow Dudes. Totally cooler than Snow Men.
When they stopped, Cat handed over the hot chocolate to the girls, glad to have them all out of her hands. She took a nice big sip of hers and definitely burned her tongue. "Alright. Totally ready." As soon as she found a safe spot to rest her hot chocolate, that is.

The fourth year did not need a boss or leader or ANYTHING.... but this was Alice and she was being a good best friend and following and watching this new person with careful eyes.
Alice said she was cool, so she must be, right? Had to be. "Hey, Cat." Stopping with the others, she observed their surroundings instead and nodded in agreement. This was a good spot. But what was this about someone knocking over their snowmen? "If they knock it over, we can glue the rest of these buttons to their face." She nodded, entirely serious and now hoping that someone WOULD so she could glue buttons to them.
If no one came by, she'd just find Aidan later and see if he'd let her use him.
Taking a sip of her hot chocolate, she nodded her head. "Let's do this."
"We shouldn't waste such awesome color changing buttons on faces of snow dude knocker-overs." Biting was a much better option. But it was kind of hard to sink her teeth into people when her tongue was on fire, because Cat's warming charm had done a little extra on that cocoa. Alice was pretty sure that every single one of her taste buds had been burned off already, though. She needed those, did they know?
Setting down the cocoa on the most level part of the snowy ground and willing it not to fall over while they built, she turned back to Cat and Dora.
"How do we do this?" Seeing as Alice had never made one before, she wasn't quite sure.
"Do I just make like.. a really big snowball?" It seemed reasonable. She dropped on the pathway crosslegged, gathering up all the snow around her and beginning to mush it together in a huge round shape.
"So.." What were they supposed to talk about now? She looked expectantly at Dora and then back to Cat.
