muse has a few things to say

[hiken_ace]

Ah... to uh... what were their names again? [...] Ah, got it.

[He clears his throat.] To uh...Roxy and Angel. I'm...really sorry about what I said to you two during that weird...fourth wall thing. [He bows. And then gives him mun an annoyed look.] There, are you happy?

[Sob, she's just repeating what she hears, she doesn't know any better! ...Though the mun does, a-and she should...know...better. /cough. Norma's face changes from shock, to uncertainty, then back to a smile. A very, very, very very strained smile. Oho, that mask's back in place right now. For one, she's going to beat the tar out of her mun, and second...ahaha...family's kind of a touchy subject for the girl herself.

Letting go now, and looking...rather awkward as she rocks on the balls of her heels. Ahem]

...Sorry. Munny-Dun doesn't tell me anything, so I didn't know. But she's real sorry. And says something about "Papabeard being so much better anyway".

...

[Eyebrow raise in mun's direction, then at Ace. Wut. Guys plz fill her in.]

[hiken_ace]

[Yeah, the mun should. :| He glances at her and sighs.] I've seen plenty of fake smiles, and yours is definitely one of them right now. Drop it.

[He ruffles her hair.] Pops is a hell of a lot better than that old bastard anyway. Just... [He runs a hand through his hair.]

Roger died before I was born. But I hate him. He's... the reason I... [And no more on that.]

[lookinforlight]

[SHE SAID SHE WAS SORRY, OKAY, WHAT MORE DO YOU WAAANT?! ;A; Norma's eyes widen when Ace 'unmasks' her, so to speak, and her smile vanishes - replaced by a very uneasy, even slightly miffed look. Why'd he have to go and do that? It's...easier to grin and bear it. It's a whole lot easier than to face the truth - and end up hurting yourself and the people around you. Laugh it off, y'know?

Norma puffs, and smacks his hand away after a minute of allowing him the courtesy of wrecking her poor hair. She continues to frown and look a little troubled, and finally, she shuts her eyes and growls, slapping a hand to cover Ace's mouth.]

Shut it. I've heard that line enough. [Another minute, before she removes her hand and wraps Ace up in a tight hug.] Your mun owes me one heck of an apology! First, she took you away, made you get killed, and then made me cry! She made me cry! And hers and yours are planning on making me cry again. [>:|!] So, I want you to beat her up, okay?

I'll promise not to pummel you if you do that.

[hiken_ace]

[THE MUN TO BE LESS FAIL. He blinks a bit when she hugs him, but just pulls her closer.]

My mun says "be mad at Akainu. And if you don't know who that is, ask your mun." [He freezes.] She made you cry??? Mun... [He runs his fingers through his hair, frustrated and annoyed.]

I can't beat her up. i know what they're doing, and I'm sorry I can't.

You can try and beat me up, though.

[lookinforlight]

[BITCH YOU CAN'T CHANGE ME, I AM PERFECTION. Norma takes a minute to blink as well, in surprise, then cuddle up closer to Ace with a frown and a soft blush on her cheeks. She doesn't bother asking the mun about that "Akainu" person - the mun would only give a vague answer or a straightforward one that'd make her feel worse than better. So Norma just snuggles up to Ace with a quiet mumble.]

Yeah...she did. [Ugh, why did she tell him she cried? It's embarrassing as hell and Norma hates it when she cries! Now he's worrying about her and she can't put on a smile because he told her not to and AAAGH. Stupid mun. Clearly this is all her fault and she should get a quality Norma Beatty kick when this is over. And you know Norma can't beat you up, Ace. Not when you look so miserable. It's not as fun that way.]

M'not gonna clobber you today, Hothead... [She rubs her face against Ace's shoulder, pouting and enjoying the warm and security his presence provided. Hothead, she missed you. As angry, and bitter, and spiteful as Norma may be towards you, she loves and missed you.] Too much work, and I'm comfy right now.

[hiken_ace]

[YOU WANNA BET. He gently rubs her head, letting her stay close.] I'm sorry. She said sorry, too. [Did not.]

[He smiles softly and picks her up, as a parent would to their child.] I appreciate that. Maybe another time, eh?

[lookinforlight]

[BRING IT. Mmm, this is nice. Nice, and warm, and cuddly, and comfy. Norma shifts her weight a little once she's picked up, a smile appearing on her face as her eyes close and she hangs her arms loosely around Ace's shoulders. Oh, she could fall asleep right now. Which...may be the case, in a few seconds. She really can sleep anywhere.]

Count on it. [A sigh, mingling together with a yawn.] Mmh...Munny-Bun said you're a really great brother, Hothead. Can't argue there, even if you're...kinda a jerk...sometimes. Warm.

[Aaaand she's out. Nini. |D]
