There isn't an Ace in a bar.

There, is, however, an Ace by the lake. She's found a nice sun-warmed rock to sit on, and is staring out over the lake.

...

Maybe someone should convince her to come in for dinner.

(Summary: Claire comes with a picnic dinner, in the hopes that Ace won't take off again. Eventually introductions are made, Seth is his usually uber-adorable self, and they trade 'my life up 'til now' stories. Evidently Ace has been pretty sparing with the details. Then they discuss Tim - Claire tries to paint him in a better light than Ace sees him, but Ace is terrified skeptical.
Raven comes out to talk to Ace. Ace apologizes for her snappishness the day before, and they introduce themselves. Somehow the conversation wanders through dealing with Fenric, how Raven reminds her of the Doctor somewhat, how she's really Ace, even if everyone wants the old one back, and pyroism. It's a wide-ranging conversation. And Raven is really neat.)

"I... alright." The ghost-smile returns. It's the best she can do at the moment, but it is awfully nice having a friend here.
"419, got it. I'm... um. You know, I didn't check. I just know it's three doors down the fourth hallway on the left." She watches Claire put away all the leftover bits, wondering idly if she should help, but not wanting to get in the way of the efficient movement.

Claire thinks about that a moment. "You know we might even be on the same floor. Never even knew."

She's done straightening up before Ace could've helped anyway.

"I'm going to get this little Peanut here to bed. It's getting close to his bed time and he's quieted down which means he wants to go to sleep but won't unless I make him."

She kisses Seth's forehead. "Tell her good-bye, Peanut."

Seth smiles at her and squeezes her hand again before letting god and curling his fist up against his mouth.

"G'night love. G'night Claire. Sleep well." She waves at them, which, all in all, is a much better way to end a meeting than the first round.

(ooc: *snugs* I love Claire, I did tell you this, right?)

"Good night, Ace." she smiles and leads Seth away, not noticing how he keeps his eyes on his Ace-love until he can't see her anymore.
