Author's Note: So, I stared playing Yukina for The YYH Masterlist on Tumblr. (Yukinatheicemaiden, if you want to find me.) I've done some prompt writing over there, so I though I'd post them here as well! Most of them are pretty short, but...I guess you'll like them if you like Yukina?

Prompt: Ice Cream

Yukina stared rather dubiously at the dish in front of her.

"What is it?"

"It's called 'ice cream'," said Shizuru, glancing absently at her nails. "Try it, you'll like it."

"You will!" said Botan, clapping her hand together. "Best thing humans ever came up with!"

"Well, I don't know about that," said Keiko, "but it is hard not to like."

Their fighters were off getting ready for the next round of the Dark Tournament, and the girls had been expending far too much energy worrying about their safety. Eventually, Shizuru had put her foot down, and declared that they were going to do something completely non-tournament-related for at least an hour.

"Then you can go back to worrying your heads off," she'd said. "As if that would actually make a difference. I promise nothing bad will happen in the next hour, at least."

And so they were on the bottom floor of the surprisingly well-appointed hotel, checking out the amenities, when Yukina had innocently asked what an "ice cream" was.

Honestly, the "cream" part was the confusing bit. That was something like milk, right? She was pretty sure humans didn't typically put ice in their milk. And in either case, whatever this was didn't have the consistency of milk or ice.

Still, they did say it was good…

Hesitantly, Yukina dipped lifted her spoon and tasted the strange substance.

Her eyes went wide.

"Oh my!"

Botan and Keiko laughed, and Shizuru smiled at her.

She'd go back to worrying eventually, but just for this moment, everything was bliss.
