[015] action (open to everyone -- except 4th wallers)

[Tulio felt sick. His stomach was doing flops ever since he spoke to that beautiful woman. He wouldn't call he 'the most beautiful woman in the world' like the woman who reminded him of his grandmother, maybe not even 'the second most beautiful woman in the world' like the one who looked like an Arabian Princess - but her face left more of an

time to get Ariel back into the loop!

[whatwouldigive]

[Ariel was...out of the loop, to say the least. She knew Tulio had been taken by the Mist and she also knew that he had come back all safe and sound, but she hadn't gotten the chance to see him. Because of this, she knows absolutely nothing about what's going on in his life. At all. So, she bounded up to him with a huge smile on her face, her hair flying behind her in a bright red cloud.]

Tulio! Hi!

BAW. ;; HIS LITTLE GIRL-MIGUEL. <3 IT'S BEEN FOREVER.

[hoooly_ship]

[His eyes squinted as he heard the unfamiliar voice. He looked up from the picture to stare at the new arrival.

Great. Another pretty girl who knew his name. At least she probably wasn't his girlfriend. He managed a weak smile and a slight wave.]

Hey...

<3 <3 <3

[whatwouldigive]

[She took a seat next to him, scooting close enough to show that they had been pretty friendly before.]

Oh my gosh, I haven't seen you in forever. How've you been?

[hoooly_ship]

The mist, apparently.

[He set the communicator down on the opposite side of where Ariel was sitting, mostly so he could give her his full attention.]

It made me... forget most of everything so I'm sorry. I don't know who you are.

1/2

[whatwouldigive]

[W-what? Ariel frowns, then looks sad. She and Tulio had been through a lot and it had been so nice knowing that he had her back no matter what. But now...]

But that means --

[No memories of terrible Strangeling adventures or, more importantly, the time they made that cake.]

2/2

[whatwouldigive]

[She quickly pulls herself together and smiles. There was really no need to get emotional. Not in front of him, anyway.]

Ariel.

[hoooly_ship]

[That... was new. A girl who DIDN'T freak out on him? He gave her a grateful look.]

Nice to meet you, Ariel. I hope I can get it back soon. [But he wasn't holding his breath. ._.]

[whatwouldigive]

[Her smile only grows wider.]

You will! I could try to help you...? I mean, at least tell you some of the things I've dragged you in -- [haha OOPS.] some of the things we've done together?

[hoooly_ship]

Dragged me... wait, wait. Back up. What have we done together? [He just met her and already he was getting the 'girl-Miguel' vibe. Innocent face? Bright smile? Smells like trouble? Yes yes and double yes.]

[whatwouldigive]

[She smiles sheepishly and stretches her syllables out:]

Well...

[She starts telling him story after story, looking excited and perky during some and super sheepish during others.]

[hoooly_ship]

[Some of the stories were really cute. It game him the impression of having a kid sister that kept dragging him around.-- And then some of the stories were HORRIBLE. The Strangeling one gave him the chills and he was POSITIVE she was cleaning it up so it didn't sound AS horrifying as it probably was.]

A-Ariel... wait, slow down. Oh my God you're as bad as Miguel..!

[whatwouldigive]

[She stopped talking and laughed, although that, too, was a little sheepish.]

Sorry. Guess I got a little carried away.

[hoooly_ship]

A little? I'm lucky the latest adventure only involved CAKE!

[whatwouldigive]

I was really impressed with that cake, by the way. I didn't know you were such an expert at baking!

[She still doesn't know that he bought it. Bubblehead.]

And, hey, all that other stuff wasn't -- too -- bad.

[Yeah, no. It was terrible. All of it.]

[hoooly_ship]

I'm-- [Pause. Best not to say he had no idea how to cook, he didn't want to ruin anything that he already set up.]

... yeah. [He couldn't help but grin. She really was a little Miguel, wasn't she?] Uh huh. You just like excitement, don't you?

[whatwouldigive]

What's not to like? It's fun!

[And dangerous. But who cares?]
