[Since Ace usually sleeps through the morning--and a bit of the afternoon--it should come as no surprise that this all comes late. Ace had been standing on the deck of the sun, groggily regarding the actual sun above and stretching out before he cleared his throat and scratched his neck.
Suddenly, the Sun and Moon were lodged still by a gigantic plateau of ice. Ace, staring out at it, pulled out his journal to speak softly to the crew.]
...Oi, who did that?
The ships're frozen.
[A pause. He reached out, trying to melt it. Instead, Ace stared blearily ahead of himself as he fired a wall of ice into the sea, hurling up a tidal wave away from both ships. The rain that came down on both ships could be heard.]
Who's messin' with me?

Ace! Darlin' what did you do? [way too cheerful. way too soft voiced. way too not Logan. He looked so shocked to see the ice...]
[action]
...Oi, what'd you do?
[action]
It's really pretty though, isn't it!
[action]
[He touched his chin, thinking aloud.]
But, I guess it's... striking?
[action]
I never said I was describing a guy. [SMILE. His face is going to hurt tomorrow.] So if you didn't do this, who did, Acey?
[Pet names. He hates pet names---or more he hates dumb ones]
[action]
Hell if I know. Stop looking at me like that. You're weirding me out.
[action]
[action]
[Being considerably more brutal than normal, Ace stuck his pinkie into one nostril and twisted.]
Anyway, I dunno. Whatever. It'll melt eventually.
[action]
That's a little uncalled for. [he huffed and crossed his arms.] Can't you just... flame it away or something?
[seriously. Spending a week away from everyone once this is over...]
[action]
Objectively, Ace should have been worried that his narcolepsy had been so... slowed down.]
Flame it away? Well, I'll try. [Ace held up one hand--...and froze the mast of the ship. Again.]
...Forget it.
[action]
[Also, Logan loosk concerned, because that wasn't fire. Surprise over took his face]
Ace! Are you serious right now? Oh dear... [Oh... dear? WTF] maybe you shouldn't do that again.
[action]
[He knew Logan always felt concern, but having it plastered on his face like that made him feel... less genuine, somehow. Irony.]
