[ it's been awhile since ace got to splendor, yet the weird things that happen continue being, well, weird. tonight he's walking around the wonderland district; aimlessly at first glance. whatever destination he had in mind is now completely lost, as he's utterly distracted by the giant bubbles appearing all over. he doesn't have his camping kit

[perhaps the most bothersome part of the whole ordeal was that the bubbles refused to pop when touching objects, which meant that, other than staying inside, there was nearly no refuge from them that snake could find. still, as he had no intention of sitting around inside, he unfortunately had no choice but to make round trips of splendor. ... well, it's not as if he wasn't in want of something to distract himself with, either.

he hadn't really been minding where he was going -- just the placement of the bubbles around him (which a few of the brightly-colored snakes curled sulkily around him were not so cautious of) -- so it almost surprises him when he hears ace's voice close by. he looks up to locate the voice -- but not really with any intention to answer, but more akin to which direction it might be better to avoid.]

[ oh come on snake he's not gonna point and laugh. maybe.

and it's useless, he's seen you already. ]

Haha! It's like the rainbow curled itself around your neck!

[neverwounda]

[curses. at least that wasn't the worst thing ace could've said.]

. . .

They were unlucky, says Wilde.

[rolereverse]

It's not everyday I get to meet you like this.

[neverwounda]

[he makes a gesture sort of like a shrug, head turned to the side. it's neither out of disinterest out of annoyance; he simply doesn't have anything to say in return.]

[rolereverse]

[ that's okay ace can talk enough for both if you want!! ]

Well? Won't you join me?

[neverwounda]

... It doesn't make a difference where you stand, says Boswell.

[rolereverse]

Yes it does. Come closer!

[neverwounda]

[DOES HE DO THIS. ... consulting with his snakes, hold on.

. . . unfortunately, the rather sour, colorful snakes are willing to take their chances. snake's chances. one of those. he looks back at ace, not moving for a few moments, but finally does come a little closer, though he does look entirely skeptical.]

[rolereverse]

I don't bite, you know?

[ not really. ]

[neverwounda]

That is a given, says Webster.

[rolereverse]

Then don't be so suspicious!

[ besides you owe me a coat ]

[neverwounda]

[he wasn't going to carry that thing around for weeks okay.]

We aren't suspicious, says Boswell.

[rolereverse]

Scared?

[neverwounda]

No, says Wilde.

[rolereverse]

Then come on closer! Sit with me! We can see the stars and stuff.
