You'd have to get me first. [ boops her in turn!! ] Plus I'm worth at least two corn chips.

[sharkgirl]

I don't know about that.

she wrinkles her nose, and then crouches down, wriggling...

before launching herself at him yeet

her goal is to like climb onto his head but you know. shoulder works too]

[selfimmolation]

[ SHE IS YOTE he just accepts this and laughs even though this encourages the other cats to start climbing all over him to follow her lead. he still has his stupid hat but she can just climb it. it's fine. tiny pinprick claws. ouch. ]

Is that the kitty punch? Because we didn't even do the cornchip exchange.

[sharkgirl]

[yesssssssss her kitten army

she settles... somewhere, sprawling on him.]

Eh. You'd know if it was the punch. [watches the cats ascend ace tower]

[selfimmolation]

What am I, a cat tree?

[ looking at this cat army placing itself in various spots. it's because nimona did it first and also he's warm. heaaat. ]

If you ever do punch me, I intend to deserve it, so you better not accept a bribe for it.

[sharkgirl]

[yeah that's half the reason that she likes climbing on him is because he's so warm. she's not cold, she just likes being sleepy.]

You are now. [biiiig yawn.] Anyway, you're right, if I actually punch you, it'd be for a reason.

[like dying or something]

I can't be bribed! I'm above the lure of capitalism! [dramatic leg kick]

[selfimmolation]

Food isn't a capitalism thing, it's just good. I think it's an alright bribe. [ she said a corn chip!!!!! that doesn't count! ]

[sharkgirl]

Clearly this means someone paid you in pizza to take me out.

[selfimmolation]

Yep. I got a single slice and then I trained these kittens to assassinate you when you least expect it. It's too bad you saw right through me and took over my cat army.

[sharkgirl]

That's what I thought! [bites his hat

gently.]

[selfimmolation]

[

boops her ]

Hey. No shark teeth. [ he knows she's not doing shark teeth ]

[sharkgirl]

[she is maybe surprisingly conscientious of his hat getting damaged, so even when she bites it she's barely gnawing on it. he boops her, though, and she chews on his finger instead.]

Are you just gonna hang around here all day with the cats?

[selfimmolation]

[ it probably tastes like a snack "ace wash your hands" he does but he is always eating ]

I wasn't planning on it before I texted you, but now I feel kind of stuck.

[ because they're like all tumbling on his lap. ]

[sharkgirl]

[she is very amused watching them hang out, but:]

What were you gonna do before you texted me? [ok nosy]

[selfimmolation]

[ genuinely don't remember it was days ago ]

Just checking out stuff around town. [ ace is very rarely staying in one spot tbh he is Restless ] Why, got something better planned?

[sharkgirl]

[valid]

Nah, not really. But I was gonna say we should go check out the photo machine things.

[selfimmolation]

With the weird add-ons that make people look funny? [ filters and stickers, ace. please. ] Sure. Why not? It'd be good to have a picture of you that isn't just on the phone.

[sharkgirl]

Yeah, that one. [she stretches a little.] Gross, don't be sentimental.

[she says like she's not the one who just asked him] We can go whenever.

[selfimmolation]

It's not sentimental to want your face not blurry. [ he's so bad at phone pictures. also, it is, but he's teasing anyway. he starts to remove his army of kittens from himself ] Let's go now, then, before these guys make it impossible.

week 2, saturday

[selfimmolation]

[ so after the reigen thing nimona and ace are getting some air. did you know our penthouse suit would be in the same building you can see the ocean from in theory if you go high enough. probably. anyway whether this is true or not he's on a roof looking at the fucking ocean he cannot have ]

... What a mess.

[sharkgirl]

[god she wants to go live in the ocean. can we give up and be pirates actually

she leans heavily against him, if he lets her.]

I didn't want him to go. [reigen, she means, that's probably obvious, but.]

[selfimmolation]

[ IT'S ALL HE WANTS but also ofc he lets her. and when she does she also get hatted idiot ]

... It didn't seem like him. To do it without reason. [ he plays with his norma bracelet a bit, because i mean that kind of thought bit him in the ass literally last week but chiemi is dead we are not thinking about that ] He's not going anywhere now, though.

[ unless. uh. someone else targets him. woop ]

[sharkgirl]

[if someone targets him nimona's going to hulk out so you know

gets hatted idiod. she closes her eyes.]

... Did Nico tell you about what happened Thursday? [this has a point.]

[selfimmolation]

... With the fake version of you?

[sharkgirl]

[heughh]

Yeah. [...] None of them hesitated to help that me. And it wasn't even real.

[you've been alone a long time, haven't you?

and now she isn't. and now she has this little group of people who just told her i wouldn't leave you behind, and she hates to cling to that, because what if it breaks, like everything else, but what if she didn't let it?]
