Letting out a tired sigh, of course Alice hadn’t meant anything by what she said. Even if Ace had his untimely moments, he was still a friend to her and cared about his well-being. “I’ll give you that much...” Fixing her ribbon in her hair as it seemed to be moved during the whole incident, Alice met the eyes of the knight who was still grinning ear to ear.
“Haa...But honestly, Ace. Don’t you think you can greet people normally?” Though to Ace, jumping and springing into action might be considered normal. She had been with now and then for when he was working so-- “Call it a hunch,” while there was many who liked to be sneaky and quiet to take her by surprise.
It shouldn’t have come as much shock to see Ace who almost regularly visited Julius. “You’re the only one who comes to visit Julius on a regular basis. Besides, how many turns has it been since you last appeared again?” She added. Ace was due for a visit sooner than later. Tightening her grip on her basket, it seemed the girl had more stomachs to fill.
