[Closed] I'm not dead, I'm just floating
Who: Jack Frost and his hypocrisy his traumatized cr (Hiccup, Hiro, Korra, Rei, Athena)
When: IC 3/17 (aka backdated to three days after the raid)
Where: Their apartments, the shrines
What: After coming back from the death, Jack wants to check on his friends
Rating/Warning: Lots of angst, talk about death, mentions of gory details
[For three hundred years, Jack didn't know who he was or where he came from... but death had always definitely been an option. He had many other theories too, of course, but being dead fit the pattern - spirits had to come from somewhere, right? So when he finally found out the truth, it wasn't shocking. He was delighted to get his story, and even if being dead became a touchy subject later, it was because of its nature more than how it affected Jack.
This time, things aren't as easy.
Death shouldn't be a fear for him. Something to think about when it comes to his past, sure. Worry about belief and disappearing, that too. But facing physical pain with such horror? That shouldn't be a thing for Jack - he may've been hit multiple of times and it hurt, but it's only magic that can truly damage him. So facing that fan and being caught in its blades... there are no words to describe how horrible it was.
That's what he's thinking about when he wakes up in the park. Is this death? Is it Ceres messing with him? Has worldhopping changed his nature? Jack lays there on the grass, frustrated, angry, feeling powerless, and most importantly... scared.
The way to fight fear is fun, and what makes Jack snap out of it is the sound of bright laughter coming from the children running toward him. They're so happy to see him! They missed him, they have been so worried! Jack is buried under hugs and tears and, underwhelming as it is, he'll take this over angsty thoughts everyday.
He can think about his death later. Here he has people to worry about. As long as he is still an eternal spirit, he can go on, coping with pain as it comes. He coped for three centuries after all.
The kids aren't told the truth, but Jack stays with them until his body is less sore and his powers are fully back (what's with that anyway?). Then he sends them home with promises of more fun tomorrow - he has things to do.
A Guardian cares about children, sure, but he also cares about his friends.]
((ooc: I'll add top levels for each character! As I said in plurk, please don't feel pressured to tag right now. I'm just setting up things for organization, you can tag when your own threads are done.))

Heroes aren't supposed to let people die. I know it wasn't our fault, but we still could have done something. [He shakes his head.] ...what happened to you guys when we were all separated anyway?
no subject
Until Hiro asks, and it'd be super asshole of him to ignore it or lie. If he wants Hiro to be honesty with him, he has to do the same in return. Jack rubs the back of his neck, looking away as he answers.] We lost the same senses as last time and got split. Dunno what happened to the others but... you know what happened to me so. Fans are now the enemy. [...Jack, that's awful black humor, you suck at this.]
no subject
[He narrows his eyes though when Jack continues. Losing senses huh...also that is terrible humor, Jack, don't even.] Did you find anything before the fan found you?
no subject
[Watch out for that answer, because Jack is getting a bit frustrated and angry again - if they hurt Hiro, then he'll only want to go back and freeze their asses.
A shake of his head.] Just a bunch of empty rooms and traps.
no subject
What kind of traps did you find? [Because it's best to ask about Jack's surroundings and really try to puzzle it out than dwell on watching people being fried.]
