A/N: I couldn't find the ENG version of Ace's card so I had to do what I could with the English fan-translation 😭 Sorry if the dialogue is awkward I did the best I could to interpret it lol

"Ah... No matter how many ribbons we remove, it just feels like there's an infinite amount still up," Tinkerbell leans his head against the wall, "We've been at this for two hours, what gives?"

"When I try to remove the lace decorations, they get stuck on my nails!" Grim whines as you help him pull the fabric off his paws.

"What a rough chair... Where did they get this from...?" Ace backs away from the chair with wide eyes, "Wait, if you look closer, they're actually gravestones!"

WHAT? You thought it was just chair decorations!!

You hug the tired kitty to your chest, "I'm gonna cry... I wanna go mimis already...!"

"Everyone!" Ortho flies into the cafeteria with a happy expression, "I've come to help so cheer up!"

Ace leans over the chair dramatically, "Ughhh! Even after I did my best! How much more trouble do those ghosts want to cause for the living before they're satisfied?!"

"What are you complaining about this time?" Deuce shakes his head.

"500 years right? They spend that much time obsessing over "love." Isn't that too persistent?" Ace rambles on, "I was angry at her retainers but... I don't think I'll ever understand that princess in my whole life."

You let go of Grim when he starts squirming in your arms, unable to breathe properly being held so close. He makes a little kitty noise before trotting away.

"If she just gave up on marriage and lived happily in the other world I wouldn't be suffering like this..."

"What a pessimistic view on love," Tinkerbell grumbles.

"But Ace, you have a person that you like, don't you?" Epel asks.

The ginger blushes, "Hah!? What's with that suddenly?"

""Too persistent" or "I'll never understand", that sort of thing... It's a little unexpected coming from you," Epel does him the favor of not commenting that he saw Ace look at you while Ace was making his little speech, "Somehow, I thought that you'd be more knowledgeable about love."

Ace raises his brow, "In other words, you're saying that I seem like a flirt?"

You laugh, "You are a flirt, Ace. With me."

"N-No, that's not what I meant," Epel quickly says after.

"HA! Asking Ace about love would be pitiful," Grim snickers, "There's no way he'd know anything about it. There's no way such a twisted and mean guy would be popular."

"Maybe stop bein' so envious, huh?" Ace huffs and crosses his arms, "In middle school, I had a girlfriend to like, go to amusement parks and movies with."

"WHAT?!" You laugh, "Oh, my God. I have to hear about this!"

"No way! But you're so much of a jerk, Ace!"

"Amusement parks and movies, huh," Ortho beams, "Those are timeless date spots according to all the manuals!"

"All this love talk..." Epel smiles sweetly, "Ha ha! It's very typical high school stuff!"
