Ace wanders back inside, looking rather sober for this hour of the morning, and trailing a thick blanket. The blanket she gives back to Bar, in return for a large mug of cocoa, and retreats to the warmth of the fireside. Mmmmm, cocoa.
Feel free to bug the Ace. She needs bugging.

(ooc: No minors please. R-rated (or increasingly getting there). Boyfriend shows up. You do the math.)

"Hey, none of that. You're the one who turned into a woman on me, not the..." she stops, pauses. "Alright, wait a moment while I go make that sentence makes as much sense in the real world as it did in my head."

*Tim grins at her.*

I'll wait.

Slower, she tries again.
"You changed genders on me, boyo. Without warning. I reserve the right to ask questions. And just so you know, I travelled around with a bloke who wore Victorian ruffles and velvet in the 1970's, so I can take different."

*Tim nods along with her.*

Ask away my love.

"Why her? I mean, if it's magic, you can look like anyone, right?" Start off simple, that's the ticket.

*Tim blushes.*

S'what i'd look like female.

Ace gives him a wry look.
"So what, you get to look good in both sexes? That's not fair."

*He shakes his head.*

Only if i take care of myself. Both my parents were skinny and good looking, i guess i get it from them.

"Ah." She pauses, then fires again.
"So, you do that often then?"

Nah...

*Tim shakes his head.*

I laregly do it to fuck with people.

"So that just back there?" There's an expectation for honesty here.

Was supposed to be playful and joking?

*Yup, thats honesty on his face.*

"Alright." She'll trust him on this one. "So who have you pulled it on, besides me?"

*Tim counts.*

First did it for Esk, cause she was needing witches, so i figured i'd go female to show i could do it. Then i did it to freak out Ron, and then to freak out sawyer. including you? 4.

"You freaked out Sawyer and didn't get it on tape? That's a pity." She sighs and shifts slightly to perch on the seat of her chair, to stretch better, obviously.
"So I only have one more question, and you should be honest with me here, Tim. I don't know if I can take it if you're not." She looks down, studies her hands, and then gives him the full-force pitiful Ace stare.
"Do you want me to show you how tampons work, or have you already sorted that out?" And she bolts, laughing, racing for the back door.

*Tim stares, mouth agape, his face a deep red.*
I, uh, I....

*And he chases after he, scowling.*

"Ooooh, you shoulda seen your face, it was a picture..." she howls as she flies through the back door and keeps going, heading for the lake.

*Tim accelerates. But no magic, that would be cheating. He growls.*

"I'll show you a picture...a picture of you in the lake!"

"You can't catch me!" she sing-songs back at him, but prudently changes course and heads for the trees. She's had lots of practice at running. Running from explosions, running from monsters... running from security... hey, that one fits!

*Tim follows, hard on her heels.*

The foridden forest is out of bounds on pain of death!

"I don't remember that in the rules!" She shouts back, pushing harder. Just... a bit... further!

Damn! Worth a shot!

*His hand, almost touching her jacket... just another foot...pour it on Tim....*

"Doesn't matter! Rules are made to be broken!" She howls, and suddenly jags back towards the lake, laughing as hard as she can with the limited air.

*Tim lunges, taking a face drive in the muck.*

Ah.

Ace cackles. And slows down to look at Tim.
