Library; Wednesday [ 03/26 ]

Adah knew full well that today, she may have to be dealing with the aftermath of whatever had occurred as a result of her missing rabbit disappearing somewhere in the library. What she didn't know, however, was how, although, as she limped in and got herself settled for shift, she hoped that, whatever it was, it didn't distract her from her reading too much.

"I have fingers," he said and wiggled said fingers around in the air.

"Yes, but, you see, fingers really only do in a pinch. It's hair that she really likes."

"And as much as I like Edgar," he said, "I'm not growing my hair long."

"Which is good," Adah nodded, "because she's gone tomorrow, and, if you did, then we've have to get you that cape, and we both know how you feel about that..."

"No capes!" Lee frowned at her and shook his head. "No need for capes. My hair's staying short and manageable."

The frown inspired Adah's smirk to grow a little more. "You sound like a shampoo commercial."

"...do not," he said and stuck his tongue out at her. "I sound like Lee."

Adah leaned forward over the desk on her good arm, looking up at him with an unforgiving grin. "Say 'short and manageable' again; I dare you."

"No," he said, frowning at her. "I sound like Lee. Shampoo commercials are for girls."

"Short," Adah repeated, her gaze steadily, teasingly on him. "And. Manageable."

She'd throw in a hair toss of her own if she was able, but she knew it wouldn't work with the way her head moved.

"I am not a shampoo commercial," he insisted. "I'm not a girl!"

"Would you prefer we talked about something else?" Adah asked, attempting to maintain an oblique innocence as she tilted her head, chin in the prop of her palm. "I thought you liked talking about how awesome your hair is."

"But my hair's not girly," he said, needing to repeat this over and over. "No girly hair."

"I can agree to not girly," Adah allowed, ducking her head slightly as she conceded at least that point. "But you still sounded like a shampoo commercial. A very...Lee-esque, manly, no-chunks-whatsoever-taken-from-your-precious-masculinity shampoo commercial. I think I even saw a head toss, but I'm not sure. It could have just been a trick of the light."

"I did not toss my head," he said and mock glared at her. "Evil woman."

"Trick of the light, then," Adah allowed with another light nod. "And is it really evil if you like it?"

He laughed and shook his head. "Guess not. As long as you're the one tossing your hair, I'm fine with you being evil."

"My hair is better for tossing, anyway," Adah said. And was so not tossing her hair.

"Show me," he asked.

Adah wasn't even going to honor that with a verbal response, especially when the look she gave the Eel made it quite clear that she thought he was insane if he thought that she'd actually do that.

Besides, principles aside, a good hair toss would be near impossible with her spinal connectors.

"Well, you promised a good hair toss and now you're just holding back," he teased. "See if I ever toss my hair for you."

"You weren't going to toss your hair in the first place!"

"I might have!" Lee nodded. "If I'd been bribed..."

"Are you still bribeable, or did my window of opportunity pass me by?"

"It'd have to be a pretty good bribe," he replied, nodding.
