[selfimmolation]

[ here they are at racetrack! it is completely safe for ace to know what cars are as a man who does tricks on a fire powered boat. also important to note he is still shirtless but he has been healed and is no longer looking like he was recently beaten up. yay ]

Are they racing with robot vehicles?

[ HE WANTS TO RACE THESE COOL ROBOTS

no do not ask why ace knows what a robot is but not a car ]

[sharkgirl]

[yay he's not beat up...

anyway, nimona does a run and leap so she can transform mid-air into a cat and land on his shoulders, climbing so that she's got her front paws on top of his head. gently, if his hat is there.]

Those are cars. [she informs him, grinning.] Anyway, yeah, you should race me in the cool robot cars? Right now.

[you are a cat.]

[selfimmolation]

[ honestly after being slammed into by an uncontrollable ball of rubber at light speed his entire childhood a cat is an improvement. she can be on the hat he is allowing it ]

You're on! [ cats can surely drive cars. he doesn't think anything of it. ] It can't be any harder than sailing.

[ marching both of their asses to the race track proper. no!! the UNIFORMS ]

[sharkgirl]

[help he said i had rubber band boy as a brother puss in boots isn't so bad]

You're gonna lose so bad, I'm so good at cars. [she sat shotgun in one like once, but ok] Are there any pink ones?

[bongos his hat with her paws.] -- Oh, I have something for you, don't let me forget.

[selfimmolation]

Let's find you a pink one, and then I'll find an orange one. We should race in style.

[ this isn't style. you have no taste. but also ??? ]

Something for me? What?

[sharkgirl]

A knife.

[she kneads his shoulder with her claws like an asshole.]

It's in my room.

[selfimmolation]

[ she's literally on him leaving claw marks everywhere so it's impossible for her to miss the way he kind of pauses a little ]

Seriously? [ surprised ] Where'd you get it? I was planning to just steal one somewhere, you don't have to give it to me.

[sharkgirl]

[poor ace got healed and is now just getting clawed all over]

I bought it off that zoom thing. It's fine, I bought myself a weapon too. [it's so nice to play a character who gets things and immediately spends all of them at once. what tokens. i never have to keep track of anything.]

[selfimmolation]

The zoom thing...?

[ please help me he is still so bad at phones. he's going to be rich by virtue of no one telling him what an app is. while he stays clawed to shit ]

Well, thanks. But seriously, you didn't have to.

[sharkgirl]

Yeah, the thing where you trade your tokens? Have you seen it? [a pause.]

I mean, if you don't want it, I'll keep it. [you reject miette's gift... "that's not what he's doing" you REJECT miette's gift]

[selfimmolation]

I don't think I've seen it...? What tokens?

[ her sulking makes him laugh though because he's an asshole ]

No way! It's a gift, of course I want it. I don't get a lot of those. I meant you don't have to go out of your way for me, we're friends, right?

[sharkgirl]

[her fur gets all fluffed up and annoyed like she's embarrassed, and out of SPITE she bites his hat. just once. and then jumps down off his shoulder and transforms back into her girl form, standing in front of him.]

... Sure. [she has a little bit of a hard time calling him a friend just yet, but - yeah.]

Give me your phone.

[selfimmolation]

[ he is just like this. he absolutely means it even though he was genuinely Shook she'd do a nice thing for him. don't question it.

anyway he hands her his phone and doesn't even look at the hat because whatever he can buff out cat teeth. he fights with this thing on. ]

You can shop on that too?

[sharkgirl]

[help ace your self esteem

she scrolls through his phone to get to the Amazoom app, and then jabs at the options.]

Yeah, it's these. So like, I bought two of the weapons and the Wonderball thing, just to see what would happen. They showed up pretty fast. I started with three? I don't know if you got more, I can't see how many you've got, but it should be at the top.

[explains to grandpa how to use technology]

[selfimmolation]

[ just truly like ohhhhhh the entire time. he's not grandpa he is a forest child, it's different :/ ]

I'm going to try the Wonderball thing too. [ LITERALLY DOES IT IN FRONT OF HER IT'S FINE ] I think three must be standard, that's what I got. Neat.

[sharkgirl]

Oooh, tell me what you got. I'll tell you what I got. Did you get cards?

[secrets are for nerds]

[selfimmolation]

[ theoretically it shows up in their dorm room but in practice i don't care to make a second pc for this ]

A cape? [ stop trying to get him to cover up his tits!!!! ] And I got a card of that little wolf mink.

[ i understand nimona doesn't know what a mink is ]

[sharkgirl]

[you're valid]

Wolf... what. [blinks.] Does the cape do anything? I got a star pin.

[selfimmolation]

You know... animal people. Like the raccoon guy. They're usually taller, though.

[ no this isn't normal. anyway; ]

It lets me blend into the night for ten minutes? I guess? What's your star do?

[sharkgirl]

Oh. [eh. she accepts this explanation.] I think her name is Whisper.

[anyway!] If I pin it to someone they throw a tantrum for an hour.

[selfimmolation]

Wasn't sure you'd know who I meant if I said her name!

[ she didn't know with mink either tho. anyway; ]

I guess that's kind of funny if you're not stuck with them the entire time they're throwing it. It gets way old after an hour.

[sharkgirl]

Yeah, yeah, I know her, she thinks I'm garbage.

[she says, casually.] You're right though, there's no way I'd stick around for the whole limit. And is it like, tantrums about everything or a specific thing? And also, why, and also how.

[i guess "magic" is a good enough answer, but.]

[selfimmolation]

Some kinda power, probably? [ but also like a lot more importantly ] What's her problem with you?

[sharkgirl]

You know that's like, more common than not, right?

[people thinking she's garbage!] Anyway, I told her I'd hurt people who deserved it, and she called people like that villains, and it was a whole thing.

[selfimmolation]

[ hm. frowning. ]

That's stupid. [ both things, but he doesn't linger on it being common because people commonly agreeing on hating others is just, like, what happens sometimes, clearly. so the second part is important ] Guess that'd make me a villain for her too.
