It seems a little bit superfluous. Time's not moving in Haddyn, right? And technically she's lived what's probably years in Hell ( Read more... )

Da-dum.

Da-dum.

Da-dum da-dum da-dum dadumdadumdadum...

It is the yo-yo what strikes from above!

...

And hangs there, evidently. After a few unsuccessful jerks and twitches, the bright red yo-yo swings idly over the pizza.
"Well. That didn't work." Dear me. The rafters have developed a London accent.

slayer_fray February 13 2006, 19:22:31 UTC

A hand closes over the yoyo, and tugs lightly.

"Hey, Sparky."

nitro_is_ace February 13 2006, 19:28:43 UTC

The yoyo tugs back, and Ace peers down from the rafters, grinning.

"Hullo Mel. How goes?" Honestly. You'd think it'd be an in-bar priority to keep this girl from getting bored.

slayer_fray February 13 2006, 19:32:35 UTC

"Not bad," is the answer. "Boringly quiet though. How's things with you?"

nitro_is_ace February 13 2006, 19:38:05 UTC

"Fairly quiet, here." Ace is highly specific with her language. "Meetin' new people, catching up on gossip, that sort of thing. Oh, managed t'not get m'self arrested last night."

slayer_fray February 13 2006, 19:52:41 UTC

"Well, congratulations," Mel says, with the proud tone of someone who's not been getting herself arrested for years.

"What didn't you get arrested for?"

nitro_is_ace February 13 2006, 19:55:41 UTC

"Either slitting the throat of or castrating one very small annoying horse-person thing. Seriously. Has there been some rule enacted that 'bugger off' now means 'please, come over here and make asine comments?" Ace grouses, swinging her yo-yo contemplatively.

slayer_fray February 13 2006, 20:14:16 UTC

"Think I missed the memo," Mel confesses. "What kinda horse-person thing?"

nitro_is_ace February 13 2006, 20:22:11 UTC

"It's a... centaur, I guess, but I always thought they were bigger than three feet. Really, really annoying. Anyway. He is still in one piece, no thanks to himself." Ace shrugs. "Trounced an army bloke in football, that was more fun."

slayer_fray February 13 2006, 20:26:02 UTC

"Didn't know you played football," Mel says, tiling her head and imagining Ace dressed up in American football gear

nitro_is_ace February 13 2006, 20:31:17 UTC

"'Course I play football. S'either that or rugby, in Perivale, an' as much as I enjoy a good brawl, football means I can have my victory and be hale enough to enjoy it, at the end of the day."

Alright.

So she plays rugby too.

Just... with decidedly less skill.

It doesn't help when you're small enough to be picked up and carried across the opponent's goal line.

slayer_fray February 13 2006, 20:35:47 UTC

Blink.

"Soccer?" Mel hazards.

nitro_is_ace February 13 2006, 20:43:32 UTC

Ace scowls slightly and flicks the yo-yo in her direction. Of course, with that much string in between hand and yo-yo, it's more of a lazy swing.
"Football. S'not my fault you Americans can't get it right."

slayer_fray February 13 2006, 20:48:05 UTC

"So, British Army guy, then?" Mel continues, happily ignoring the scowl and flickage. "Wells, right?"

nitro_is_ace February 13 2006, 20:49:06 UTC

"That's the one. Good sort, if a bit too military for m'tastes." Ace and military thinking have never really gotten on well.

slayer_fray February 13 2006, 20:56:29 UTC

Mel nods. "He's jake, I like him."

She's not going to share the bulk of her conversation, because that's not really Ace's business, but it's enough that she likes him.
