Day/Prompt(s): ❄️ Little lie ❄️ Trapped together in a snowstorm ❄️ “I thought you knew where you were going?!” ❄️ “I don’t know what to say, but it’s Christmas, and we’re all in misery.” —National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation

Title: February, 1929: Icebound
Pairing: Algy Lacey/Erich von Stalhein (Variations 'verse.)
Rating: Teen and above (extremely mild and vague sex-mention.)
Words: c.2.3k
