[voice on 27th] so ooc for Faye that I couldn't not

Guys - guys - listen. Wait. Waitwaitwaitwait.

*Faye sounds breathless, like she's desperately excited to share something, and also like she's doing her best not to allow herself to laugh*

Okay, okay. So -

What is a cowboy bounty hunter's favourite key on a keyboard?

*Deep breath as a dramatic pause for the punchline*

The space bar!

*Then there's delirious, but honest and happy-sounding laughter*

Right. Now. You have to guess this one. Are you ready? Are you? Okay. Here it is...

Why did the cow get in the Bebop? Oh wait - that's my spaceship! A spaceship! Why did the cow get in the spaceship?

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[he was surprised but pleased that she actually found his guess funny. He couldn't help chuckle a bit when she reveled the real punch line of the joke, though]

Hah, nice. Well, somebody's in a silly mood, huh?

*She fought for a moment to try and get her giggles under control, and her voice still sounds highly amused*

It's totally funny, right?

And hey, nothing wrong with spreading the happiness and laughter every now and again!

It's... Funny, yeah. [maybe not the funniest joke he's ever heard, but certainly amusing. Plus Faye's good mood and cute giggling we're putting a smile on his ace even if her jokes weren't top comedian material]

You're right. Nothing wrong with making people smile.

Hee hee hee! So glad you like it Thashy sharky boy!

*Congratulations on humouring her, Thash, she does sound very pleased, little giggles escaping in between when she talks*

Now it's your turn - you gotta make me smile now, sharky warky! Got any good jokes?

Uuuuhm.... [there 'a a long pause. Obviously he's not used to doing this kind of thing. But, eventually he thought of something] okay, why did the girl refuse to swim in lakes, pools or rivers but would swim in the sea?

*Faye gasps when he starts his joke, mostly because she was holding her breath during that pause, waiting to see what he'd say*

Uhm. Uhm. Uhm. I dunno! Why?

....she was a sea gull [silence]

*Give her a moment or two while she blinks at her journal*

A sea gull...

*Nope. She's not getting it. Not really. But then she realises and bursts out laughing*

Sea gull! Thash, I get it! But that kinda sucked!

*But wow, she's giggling away like she's super amused*

Yeah, well, I'm not exactly a comedian....

[but he seemed pleased enough that he'd made her giggle and smile by the sound of it. She was acting so silly he was starting to wonder if she was drunk. At least she was happy]

Oh, by the way, I forgot about it because the monster attacked, but I found something for you besides fish on that last dive. It's not much but I'll come by and give it to you whenever you want me to.

Don't worry - funny enough!

*She might seem a little drunk, but Faye isn't usually like this either after some drinks. Later on, once the pink haze clears, maybe she'll have a happy hangover*

Ooh! Ooh really? What did you get? Come bring it any time!

[he chuckled a bit] well don't get too excited, like I said it's not much. But okay, I'll be over there in a minute.

[a few minutes later she'd hear a knock at her door]

*Apparently, being excited was about all that Faye could manage right now. She was all giddy and easily excitable. So when he knocks at her door, she rushes over and swings it open*

Hi Thashy Sharky Warky!

Uh, hi Faye. [she was really acting weird. Good, but weird. He was starting to wonder if that child curse had come back and changed her consciousness to that of a kid much like it had changed his body]

You seem to be in an unusually good mood...

*She lets the door go as she heads back into the room, then spins round to him with a bright smile*

Maybe I'm just happy to see you. Ever think of that, huh? Though I guess maybe you're not happy to see me. After the kid thing. And then me shouting at you with the monster thing.

[well, maybe he'd figure out why she was acting weird later, or maybe she was just legit in a super happy mood. Either way, for now he just rolled with it]

Eheh, no, it's nothing like that. I'm happy to see you too. Anyway, this is what I found...[he held a hand out and opened it palm-up. Sitting in his hand was a pretty small pearl...maybe half the size of a pea. It was neither perfectly round nor smooth... It was kinda shaped like a grain of rice and had little swirled lumps on it. Still though, it shimmered with the typical radiant whiteness of a pearl]

There you go... Not the best one I've ever found, but it's still pretty.

*Faye took his hand, holding it either side with one of her own, and she peered down to look at the pearl. It really was teeny tiny. Usually, Faye would have made a comment, but in this mood she just giggled softly*

It's weird, Thash. So teeny tiny.

*She takes it carefully from his hand, pinching it between her fingers and holding it up to the light*

Yeah... Back in my home world, I'd usually only find around ten pearls per year, and over half of them weren't round or smooth or large. A lot were like this one. But hey, it's encouraging in a way....if I can find imperfect pearls in this world, chances are I'll find a perfect one eventually.

Ten pearls per year, huh? That's not so many!

*She smiles and shuffles closer towards Thash*

And when you find that perfect one you can give it to the girl of your dreams!

For now, though, I need to keep this little beauty close!

*Faye smirks at him, then promptly drops the pearl down the cente of her cleavage*

Heh, yeah...[his eyes widened when she dropped it between her breasts. He certainly hadn't expected that] is that uh...a normal place for women to keep things? [he asked rather incredulously]

Depends what kinda things.

*Faye giggles a little as she glances down at her chest*

But sure, it's a safe place. Unless...

*Shuffling a little closer to him with a cheeky grin*

Unless you were planning on diving in there to steal the pearl back?

Ah, w-what?! No, I don't need it....

[he blushed and looked away, trying not to stare at her chest. His tail started swaying back and forth anxiously, and she might notice at this point it had a bandage on it]

Seriously, you keep it

*Faye just giggles at his reaction and reaches up to tap at his cheek lightly, leaning round to try and catch his eye. That was when she noticed the bandage, and she took a step back, eyes wide*

What happened to you, Thashy baby?

[He almost laughed at the funny pet names she was calling him but managed to restrain himself, glancing back at his tail]

oh. The sea monster bit me when I was in the water.

[...which implied he had actually jumped into the water with it. He didn't detail the reason for this seemingly insane act]

Don'y worry, it didn't break any bones...just cut up the skin and muscle a bit.

*The haze that had caused her giddiness might have meant that she dealt with her concern somewhat differently. Instead of anger, she blinked sadly and moved forward to give him a gentle hug*

Awww. What happened? What were you doing in the water, silly?

[He sort of stiffened and held still when she hugged him. It was clear by his tenseness he definitely wasn't used to this kind of contact. He blushed and it took him a few moemnts to respond. Despite hsi tail being wounded, it thumped on the wall lightly after she hugged him]

I...uh... well... ahem, Arthur got dragged into the water. I was just bringing him back. I managed to get him back onto the ship and helpe dhim start breathing again, but before I got out of the water the monster chomped down on my tail a bit.

[He finally relaxed just a tiny bit, worried he would offend her by his strnage reaction]

I kicked it in the eye though, so it let go before doing any serious damage.
