This is Mothrabro for Drew's House of Horrors: Holiday Havoc with Ember Lumen of Disney/Pixar's Elemental being trapped by an evil snowman.
Ember Lumen is the protagonist of the 2023 Disney/Pixar animated feature film Elemental. Described as a fiery young woman, she is the only child of Bernie and Cinder Luman, Fireland immigrants. She dreams of taking over her father's convenience store, the Fireplace after her father retires. When her explosive temper bursts the pipes, Ember meets Wade Ripple, a go-with-the-flow water guy to repair the pipes and prevent The Fireplace from closing down. During the adventure, Ember slowly realizes that she doesn't actually want to run the fire shop and pursues a new dream, with help of her newfound friendship and blossoming romance with Wade.
Ember is a kind and hard-working young woman. She respects and loves her family unconditionally. She is aware of how much her parents sacrificed for her and is ready to repay their sacrifices, so she has always helped her father in the Fireplace. However, Ember has her flaws. She has a really bad temper, and this causes her to turn purple and create explosions. Also, she can be indecisive and fearful when it comes to choosing between her family's dreams and her own. Her temper is more evident when it comes to something that has to do with her family's shop. She gets frustrated with some customers' behavior and gets impatient with their negligence. Her fiery temper also gives her problems being able to connect with others.
Because she and her family suffered prejudice from being fire elements, Ember never interacted with non-fire elements, except for her neighbor Clod. But this changed when she met Wade Ripple, a water element. Their first meeting wasn't very friendly, as Wade reported several violations in the Fireplace and their first interactions were to work together to save the Fireplace from being condemned and to fix the damaged dam that is causing the leaks. As they spend more time together, Ember gets more open to non-fire elements and falls in love with Wade, and he for her. Her love for Wade helped her control her hot temper and she became happier, but at the same time, she had to keep her dates with him a secret, knowing her parents (mostly her father) wouldn't approve of it. She is skeptical about trying to touch hands with Wade, afraid that it will harm them, but when she gives in, the two are so happy to see they can touch after all and share a waltz.
With these new experiences, Ember discovers her true talent and passion: glassmaking. An example of her talent is when she fixes a pitcher that Alan Ripple accidentally shatters. She also realizes she doesn't want to run her father's shop, but her fears of letting her family down overtake her to the point that she denies Wade her feelings for him and sends him away, which hurts and disappoints him. After Wade accidentally reveals that she damaged the pipes in the Fireplace's basement and Bernie renounces his retirement, Ember becomes sad and considers herself a terrible daughter. When Firetown is about to get flooded, Ember rushes to warn the citizens and her parents, showing she is willing to save her family no matter what. Even after what she said to him, Wade returned to help her without hesitating, and she was happy to see him. When the two got blocked off in the store's back alcove with the steam pipe blocked off, Wade started to evaporate due to the heat. Ember wanted to get out to save him, but he refused, knowing she would get extinguished. At this, Ember finally confessed her love for Wade and apologized for not saying it earlier. He forgives her and the two hug as Wade evaporates.
Only after Wade evaporated, a tearful Ember realized how much she loves him as she finally admits to her father that she doesn't want to run the shop. While releasing stress, Bernie assures her that she is his real dream, not the shop. Upon realizing Wade's moisture was on the stone ceiling of the alcove, she makes him cry by playing his family's crying game. After making him drip out of the ceiling and he reforms, Ember and Wade kiss and she finally gets to do what she wants. Now Ember lives happily with Wade and works making glass, but she still loves her family deeply.
