Rachel told Mel to get some sleep. So Mel slept. And she told her to eat. So she's eating. At a table in the middle of the bar, Badge pinned to the holster on her thigh, she's tucking into a mound of pancakes, liberally covering in bacon and syrup.

Dinah offered her shapes, she went for shapes. Everything she had.

Except for turtles. That's just wierd.

Ace faepalms. Emphatically.

"I am not lookin' to 'get some' from anyone, least of all him!" She protests. "He started it."

Alright, she already knows that is the lamest excuse ever. Really.

The facepalming continues. It hides the blush.

The Doctor really isn't half bad at the kissing thing.

"Not right away, no. Thus with the writing it off. Has to be a personality quirk, right?" Yes. Clutching at straws fully in effect.

"Eh." She shrugs, looking decidedly unenthusiastic. "S'not really a priority."


Ever again, if she has her way about it.

"Well, yeah." OBviously, she doesn't say, even though it is terribly clear. "Just not intendin' t'go lookin' for it."

"I am not flustered." Ace retorts.

...

It'd probably help if she didn't look flustered, wouldn't it?

"Right."

...

That or she was too shocked at the time. But we're NOT THINKING ABOUT THAT.

"S'alright." It's not like she hasn't been thinking about it.

No. Wait. She hasn't. Right. That's the story, and we're sticking to it. Except when we're not.

...

Bother tricky emotions anyway.

"So whatcha up to?"

That earns a curious headtilt. You knew it would, didn't you?

"A Phoenix? What's that?" Poor Ace. No comic book experience to speak of.

"Sorta psychic?" She's going with what she can handle. The rest sounds more like something she'd be more inclined to blast to hell. "Is that like bein' sorta pregnant?"

Ace eyes Mel back.

"Since when have you ever been fat?" Slayers are not allowed to talk about being fat. Ever.

"So it's not an on/off sort of thing?" Asks the girl who has the psychic ability of a brick.

"Ah. So if I happen t'be thinkin' about potential birthday presents I could get f'you, the secret's safe?" Ace grins. "Maybe y'can tell me if I'm on base."

"Well. Good."


Pause.


"'Cause I haven't a clue, an' you'd just laugh yourself sick at m'cluelessness."
