Spring Flurries - Chapter 16
It started as a dream about insects. Big ones. Huge, even. And some smaller ones too, but mostly the huge ones. They were swarming across the land, eating leafy pink shoots out of the ground. Except they weren't shoots, they were tiny Prince Gumballs. And they weren't insects, they were Ice Queens. Well okay, they still had spidery bodies and a set of six wings, but that was definitely Ice Queen's hair. And her face. And they weren't eating the shoots anymore, they were just kind of pulling them up with their lips and tossing them into a pile. I was under that pile. At the bottom. And I couldn't breathe because I was actually underwater. I wa

There wasn't much Fionna could do about the shivering while up in the biting cold of the Ice Mountains without a sweater or heavy snowpants, much less a shirt with a gigantic slash down the center. She kept cuddled to herself, fingers tightly gripping patches of Cake's hair as Ice Queen lay propped up against her bare shins. Not that the touch of the queen's super-chilled skin was helping any. Her hair seemed to make a decent windbreaker, though. She had discreetly draped it around her legs for whatever extra bit of warmth she could scrape together.
"Fi, if you're cold, lemme just be the first to inform you that I TOLD you we shoulda gone ba

"...Flame Prince...", Fionna started, rising to her feet.
He held up a glowing hand to silence her. "I am disappointed it has come all the way to this...".
Her eyes shifted from queen to prince. "...come all the way to...?"
"I've heard everything, Fionna. Don't try to hide it any longer!"
She gulped, taking a step forward. "Okay...stay calm now."
"I am DONE staying calm!" he shouted, casting a fireball to the ground with his fist. "You have been plotting to off me this whole time, have you not? That bears no reason for me to stay calm!"
"No, prince, listen," she said, palms out. "I haven't been planning to off you. Really, I haven't. I'

Fionna hacked her way through the thick brambles, blazing a path with her sword and muttering curses with each stroke. Sneaky thorns stung and bit her legs as she ran past, leaving gashes and tears in her stockings. She ignored them, recklessly continuing to undo all the work that Peppermint Maid's healing spell had done to repair her. All the work that Ice Queen's blood had done to repair her.
She grimaced at the thought and shook her head, pressing forward even harder.
Cake wasn't far behind. She had wanted to take the lead, use her superior size and strength to barge her way through it all, but Fionna was clearly in a mood to hack and sl

"Now you're sure you're all totally healed, right?" Cake asked in the most sisterly-not-motherly voice she could manufacture. "You don't need another day or two or a week?"
"I feel like a hundred prancey stallions!" Fionna said exuberantly, pumping her fists. "That heal spell was like liquid crystal dynamite for my soul! I'm like a punchy piston now! HYAAH!"
Ice Queen smiled, pulling her bountiful hair back into a neat ponytail, which, Fionna noticed, was no small feat. "Such enthusiasm, Fionna! I never get to see this side of you."
"Huh? What are you talkin' about, Icicle Nose?" she asked, dropping into a set of leg stretches. "I'm always

"Mmmh...so delicious..." said Ice Queen as she ran her sharp, freezing nails up the prince's exposed leg, moving in for another delicate kiss.
"Ice Queen, please," Gumball replied sheepishly. "Not in front of Fionna...".
"...who....WHAT....".
"Oh, that's right," Ice Queen purred, turning to face her. "I'd almost forgotten you were even here...".
"...what's going on....where even am I?"
"Daaaaarling." The queen stretched the word out in a dreamy, singsong way. "What are you talking about, you're right here!"
Prince Gumball reached up and pulled his robe open slowly as Fionna's own head peeked up and out from inside.
"...what the...I....
