VATICAN CITY — In a stunning scene this morning, Pope Leo activated his long-dormant ice powers and built a magical ice palace while belting out showtunes.
Pope Leo had spent much of his life trying to suppress his ice powers so as not to accidentally hurt those around him, but now let them burst forth unhindered, declaring, "Let it go, let it go, can't hold me back anymore."
"That perfect girl is goooone," sang the emotional pontiff, his blue dress sparkling with frozen fractals. "I don't caaaare, what they're goiiing to sayyyy. Let the storm rage oooooon!"
Onlookers gaped in awe as the Pope raised a magical ice palace from his fingertips, then ascended a set of ice stairs. "It all goes back to when, as a child, Leo inadvertently hurt his sister with his ice powers," explained a Vatican official named Olaf. "He was so scared afterward that he would not so much as build a snowman with his sister. Leo just couldn't keep it in forever though. Heaven knows he tried!"
At publishing time, the Pope had reportedly shut himself inside his ice palace, stating, "the cold never bothered me anyway."
