(Backdated to the 14th) Video/Action/ Open to All

[ Video ]
[ Sometimes, you just have to take a break from the battles to goof off. Lucy was puttering about in her room, folding up a pair of cloaks and taking another one off its hook, draping the navy fabric over her shoulder. With Natsu out of the room at the moment - probably getting a shower or something, Lucy grinned into the video feed. ]

Hey, if you're seeing this, I need you to do me a favor if you wouldn't mind; if my partner Natsu is looking for me, don't tell him where I am. [ A giggle. ] That's cheating!

[ She winked at the feed with a grin. leaving that open to guildmates and others, Lucy left the message there. Well he probably won't need it anyway - dragonslayer senses and all that, but there was a chance he'd run into someone anyway, whether or not they were from the guild. ]

[ Action ]
[ Feed finished, Lucy proceeded to summon Gemini into the room. ]

It's been a while, you two - you know what to do, right?

"Are you sure this is a good idea, Lucy?"

[ Gem and Mini weren't so sure - but it had potential for hilarity and backfiring messily, so they could easily get behind that. And after one POOF, the spirit had taken the form of a towel-clad Lucy. Lucy immediately pointed them to get dressed in one of her outfits because like fun was she letting them walk around outside like THAT.

Minutes later, she was ducking out of the shared apartment, only leaving a note behind on the door reading: 'Bet you can't find me~~! <3' ... she was so going to get the jump on him this time! She wrapped herself up in the invisibility cloak she gained, immediately vanishing from sight and sprinted out of the apartment building with Gemini quick to follow behind and ready to throw off Lucy's trail. Though Lucy might bump into others along the way - literally in some cases. ]

[ OOC: Feel free to meet and say hi to Lucy, in other words :3 ]

You didn't, huh? [ She grinned absently. At the question, she nodded, pulling back to step out of his arms, ]

Y-yeah. Let me just.. take that. [ Can she please hide for the next fifteen hours. She reached up to swipe the cloak back, though of course, not to put it on. Though it was very very tempting. ]

[explodewiththerage]

[This time he does let go but when she takes the cloak he keeps his eye on her for a short while making sure she doesn't throw it over herself and try a vanishing act on him again.]

heck the idea would've worked on anyone but me.

[celestial_wizard]

[ She's so so tempted to do just that, but she simply folds it up and hugs it against her chest. ]

I bet the kids would get a kick out of it - but for Regina's sake, I probably shouldn't let them play with it. It's a little too big for them anyway. [ Unless it was both of them at the same time. She could just imagine the pranks they would pull. ]

[explodewiththerage]

[he'd hunt her down instantly. So it's really futile to even try. Something Lucy apparently realized as well given she folded it in front of her chest.]

Hahaha yeah I can see Nev putting it on and tripping over the longer bits while trying to get the jump on Justyne.

[celestial_wizard]

[ There was that too. She laughed at that assessment. ]

Hmmm, you're right, he would do that... [ Thoughts brewing in her evil little mind. It would certainly be an excellent way to scare the kids for Halloween. ]

[explodewiththerage]

Of course I'm right. The little guy thinks like me quite a bit.

[Probably influence of his previous self in this world. Well that just means the lad has fine taste in role models.]

[celestial_wizard]

[ Lucy muffles a quiet groan into the cloak. Dat ego. And the fact that it isn't even untrue just makes it worse. ]

Suddenly I'm worried about how he'll turn out when he gets older. [ She's joking, really. ]

[explodewiththerage]

Huh? what'd ya mean? He'll turn out just as awesome as me.

[Yup that ego is so big it's generating gravity.]

[celestial_wizard]

[ She doesn't want to be trapped in his ego-orbit! Which is why she gives his shoulder a shove. ]

Gah, would you listen to yourself? You'll have trouble getting through doorways if your head gets any bigger.

[explodewiththerage]

I'd just make the door bigger then~

[Probably by blowing a hole in it but hey no need to tell her that.]

[celestial_wizard]

[ Lucy palmed her face, muttering. ]

You're completely missing the point..!

[explodewiththerage]

In what way?

[Cause he totally doesn't see it.]

[celestial_wizard]

You're joking right? You're pulling my leg. How can you -- augh, why do I even bother..? [ She swats at him. ] Go away, I don't want to be pulled into your orbit of ego~.

[explodewiththerage]

Too late for that. You were already trapped when I made you my partner~

[celestial_wizard]

[ Helplessly, hopelessly, forever trapped. She was okay with that. She glanced away, hiding a grin at the thought, immediately toning it down when she responded with a giggle. ]

Well if I knew then what I know now --

[ She trailed off with a laugh, knowing damn well if she knew then what she knew now she'd make the same decision. Heck, she'd look for him. ]

[explodewiththerage]

You'd still do it. You love the adventure of it~

[He knows her too well for her own good.]

[celestial_wizard]

[ He does. She laughed. ]

Well, maybe I do. A little. Even if you are really frustrating sometimes.

[explodewiththerage]

I'm frustrating about the same amount of times you're a weirdo so that makes us even.

[celestial_wizard]

What are you talking about? I'm never weird, you're just -dense-.

[ Clueless, and dense. Super clueless. But that was better for her that he didn't understand why she reacted around him the way she did. If he had even a hint... ]

[explodewiththerage]

Suuure I am.

[He doesn't believe that excuse at all. After all he doesn't see himself as dense.]

[celestial_wizard]

Aaaugh, there, see, you're doing it right now!

[ Being dense and frustrating! It was a natural second ability of his. ]

[explodewiththerage]

Huh? NOpe still can't see it~

[Or maybe he can. He might be pulling her leg just a bit.]

[celestial_wizard]

Now I -know- you're making it up. [ She eyed him suspiciously, but damn him and his forever poker face. She stopped short abruptly, to give him an accusing look. ]

I never know what you're thinking when you're like this! [ Trolling for mages. Hrmph. Any other time she knew what he was thinking without him even saying anything! ]

[explodewiththerage]

Oh nothing~ Nothing at all.

[he's enjoying this so much. After all it's too fun to tease Lucy around like this.]

[celestial_wizard]

'Nothing' my foot! You're like a Cheshire cat. . . only a dragon.

[ She was pretty sure he was amused, but he was playing it off so innocent she couldn't call him on it. Ooh! What a.....a... dragon! And the more he feigned ignorance, the more she got puffycheeked at him. ]
