Jordan wished she knew what those pole-holders were thinking when they exchanged glances. Ah well. At least she could raise her eyebrows at the sight of the lady doing what seemed impossible. She could probably make good money speaking to people about 'Nothing is impossible' and whatnot. "Huh. Wow....What? Oh, nothing," she answered Shige belatedly. Whether anyone could hear anything she said was doubtful. At least Shige had good hearing.

~The old lady straightened with her arms raised in triumph, surely no one would protest such a display from someone her age.
The again, she wasn't one to leave things to chance. Turning around she motioned for the pole holders to go lower. KNEES lower.
The crowd's eyes widened and the collective cheering became choked with those who were still enthusiastic and those who had suddenly become slightly worried.
Face set in determination the old lady took a step forward, bent her knees, and leaned slowly backwards, inching under the pole like some kind of sub human demon having emerged from hell. Her body seemed inverted until it cleared the pole and she straightened again in triumph, snagging her cane off of Chris's arm and raising it above the crowd.
Someone with a microphone finally stepped forward, more to prevent any further lowering of the pole and it's possible old lady back injury repercussions. He announced that the contest had a winner as the crowd cheered. He raised the old ladies hand and told her about the cruise she'd won, as the public began to disperse. ~

If Jordan could have used her powers she could have OWNED. But alas, she could not. Besides, the lady deserved it if she could do that. "A cruise would be nice. Ice cream would be nice too." It was a bit of a pointed comment, considering what they had come to the mall for in the first.

Luckily, Christopher was able to put up a mental block before everyone started thinking. Otherwise he may have had an unbearable migrane. He looked at the cane hanging on his arm and then at the old lady getting up from her limbo. He then realized he was next. "Crap" he muttered to himself.

[ I do believe they called it quits after granny won the competition, so Chris lucked out of it~ ]
Jordan padded most happily behind, still not sure what flavor to get. Had she decided on chocolate? Somehow that or strawberry.

"Why not neopolitan?" she suggested. Jordan's cravings for chocolate were almost over whelming her own for lemonade and coffee.

A slew of noises that weren't meant for human ears -more of the embarrassing 'meep' kind than of the sailor variety- escaped from Jordan's lips. She hadn't been squeamish until Shige said she was. Now she was squeamish.
"Hey, don't get cocky now Michi," she teased, hopping just a bit higher and lingering in the air a bit longer than normal. She was more than aware of the arm on her shoulder, but she'd let it slide...for now.

Whit stood guard behind her back. She could feel his chin hovering around the crown of her head a** she looked the ice cream over.
At a subtle prod, padded by her coat, she stepped forward and pointed to what she wanted, quietly ordering lemonade and coffee scoops in a waffle cone.

He ordered blueberry and cheesecake ice cream, and shrugged at Avery's jealous look. She clearly had not seen the cheesecake. He gave her a wink as he took his cone and gave it a lick.

Christopher caught up to everyone at the ice cream place. "Hey. Anyone know where Spencer got off to? I haven't seen him since he asked that hula girl to give him a tour around" he stated. He also got in line for ice cream.

Dannie followed behind, now somehow stuck with the group and brooding about how much she thought she embarrassed herself. 'I don't deserve to be a Parabellum' She repeated to herself as they neared the ice cream place. Then, she looked up to Avery to see her quite demure and rather quiet unlike a while back when she was encouraging Dannie to be tough as she normally was around people she had to impress. It caused her to raise an eyebrow.

"Try it," he instructed, taking her own cone from her hands for a moment so she wouldn't be overburdened. He saw her pause so, he leaned in raising his eyebrows. You could see her hesitate then give in as they knocked heads. She held back her hair and tilted her head sideways to get at the second scoop. Whit just shook his head as he accepted his cone back. Alone or with friends she was fine, but face her with a cashier and she became a clam.

Jordan grabbed Shige's hand and ducked under his arm, doing a twirl -not unlike something you'd see in a dance- in order to break free and walk past all the flavors. "I think I'll just stick with chocolate. Ooh, or I'll get the Chocolate Brownie. Yeah, that one looks good," she said to the girl behind the counter. She got in in a normal sugar cone, not being a big 'cone' person when it came to ice cream. As the girl reached down to scoop some up Jordan looked to Dannie with her multicolored eyes. "Are you getting any?" She hadn't been with the group when they decided to get ice cream, after all. Her eyes flicked to Christopher too when she realized he'd joined them along the way as well. She smirked as he mentioned Spencer getting a hula girl to show him around, assuming there was some ulterior motive behind his asking.
