Y/n cross her arms, looking at Ace with an irritated look. "What did you do...that made you get " she asked, clearly angry, as the group flinched at her sudden outburst.

Yuuna couldn't help but shiver at the sight of the collar around Ace.

"I-I just ate a tart" Ace started, sitting down on the couch that was pearl white, with pearls attached to the edges. It was comfortable but that didn't get rid of Ace's grumpy mood. He was pouting intensely at the two females and Grim.

"You just ate a tart?" Yuuna asked as she sat down on an armchair across from him as Grim hopped on her lap.

"Yeah, that's it! That's all I did!" he tried to defend himself. He huffed in annoyance as he crossed his arms over his chest and continued " I was a little hungry, see, so I went down to the dorm kitchen and found some tarts in the fridge. Three whole tarts! Big ones, too! So..."

[Flashback begins when he comes back from Amaryllis]

Ace opens the fridge in hopes of finding something to eat, only to see three strawberry tarts.

"Wow! This looks tasty!" it was like the tarts were shining at him, like jewels.

"There's so much of it as while. No one's gonna care if I eat one slice...don't mind if I do" Ace says while taking a slice of the tart, and taking a bite, unknowing about a certain tyrant walking up behind him.

"Wow! It's so good!" he gleamed.

"As one would expect. Trey's tarts are the most exquisite"

"No, like seriously!? It's way better than a storebought..." Ace says but then he noticed the voice.

"uh." he turns around to see Riddle Rosehearts, looking at the idiotic boy with a menacing look. He was furious.

"H-Housewarden?!" Ace backed up in fear.

"...by the decrees of the queen of hearts, rule 89: " Riddle starts off, glaring harshly at Ace.

"Tart Theft is a grave felony!! I had literally just removed your collar...and yet here you are, breaking another rule...It seems you're rather fond of the guillotine...should I sing Permafrost's '' during your beheading?"

'what the hell is a 'Blood's refrain?' Ace questioned in his head. But then turned his attention back to Riddle.

"N-no, anything but-" Ace says, having his hand out towards Riddle in a 'no' motion, as Riddle starts closing in on the scared boy.

"Very well. I shall grant your wish..." Riddle points his staff at Ace. ""

"Gyaaaa!"

[Back to Amaryllis]

"and...here I am," he says, leaning back against the fluffy couch.

Everyone got silent.

"So...the point is, you're both terrible," asked Grim. His adorable fire ears flicked in irritation

"You shouldn't have stolen the tarts, Ace" Y/n told him as Ace glared at Grim and Y/n.

" You don't think that it's insane for my magic to get sealed away for eating ONE slice?" he argued back, pointing a finger at them.

"For a mage, that's like having your arms and legs bound and shackled! And there were three whole tarts! THREE! It's not like he could eat'em all himself!"

"There's got to be a limit as to how narrow-minded one could be" Ace grumbled, slumping back onto the couch.

"I guess...?" Yuuna mumbled.

"What kinda wishy-washy answer is that?!" Ace asked the girl who only did a nervous grin while covering herself with her robe to keep herself warm. After all, it was cold in the ice palace dormitory.

"I mean, if there were three of 'em, they were probably for a party. Maybe it was for someone's birthday? Lookit, at that! I'm like a master detective too!" Grim exclaimed.

"A birthday party. huh..." mumbled Ace.

"That would explainit." Yuuna said.

"Did you even apologize?" asked Y/n.

"Jeez, I thought you'd be more sympathetic, Yuuna! I'm a victim of the house warden's tyranny here!" Ace groaned.

"Oh please, your punishment was reasonable, after all, stealing food is a serious offense" Y/n commented.

"You gotta be kiddin' me, Y/n!" Ace whined a bit but then lighten up when he heard Yuuna's words.

"But, that may have been a little extreme.." Yuuna says.

"But you stole food! That ain't cool!" argued Grim, huffing a bit.

"If you apologize, I'm sure he'll forgive you," Yuuna suggested, playing with the tassels on her robe

"Next time, don't go messing with another mortal's meal" Y/n scolded Ace.

"Grudges over food are the worst..." Grim mumbled, making Yuuna chuckle.

"All right, all right. I'll get that I should apologize. But you guys should follow me, after all, it was Yuuna's idea" he says, dropping his head down, still being a grumpy baby.

"fair enough"

"Anyway, you got a place for me to crash tonight?" Ace asked, relaxing on the fluffy couch.

"You were serious about that?" Grim moaned in annoyance.

"I'm not gonna dirty a room only for you to sleep for the night!" Y/n complained. "I'm tired, so I'm heading up first," she told Yuuna, Grim, and Ace, who nodded.

"Tch. Fine. You should let me stay with you, Yuuna. I'm real slim, so I won't take too much space" Ace asked while Y/n was walking to her room to take her beauty sleep.

"n-"

"alright," Yuuna agreed, making both Grim and Ae shocked. "What are you guys looking at, let's go?" Yuuna says, picking up Grim as Ace reluctantly follows.

[With Y/n who was laying down on her bed]

"hehe, I never thought she would say yes. I bet Ace's reaction was priceless" she chuckle a bit, as she drifted off to sleep

Y/n woke up much earlier to take a shower and do her morning routine for the 2nd day of school. She walk down the stairs after she did her hair and got dressed, as saw Deuce and Ace talking, so she decided to eavesdrop for a bit.

"Oh, shutp up! Like you're one to talk! Anyways, uh...is he still mad?" Ace asked Deuce.

"Not at all. Maybe a touch irritated, if anything. A few of our dormmates overslept this morning...but only three of 'em got collared" Deuce explained.

"You call that 'not at all' mad?! Sounds like he's still on an rampage, to me" Ace mumbled.

"So it may seem" Ace and Deuce gulped when they shivered at the sudden change of temperature caused by your on and only, Y/n.

"P-prefect!" Deuce greeted.

"D-deuce..."

"I heard the conversation. It seems dear Strawberry is still angry..." she mumbled, cringing a it.

"ugh" groaned Ace.

"Don't forget to apologize. I have other matters to attend to, so Yuu will be with you. cya in class" Y/n waved goodbye, walking past the two brain cells, not without hearing Ace brag about something.

"I still can't believe Y/n build this palace with her magic..." Deuce says.

"Right? haha I even slept with Yuuna!" Ace brags

"Ace...you know that just sounds wrong right...?" Deuce sweatdropped a bit.

"...what?!" Ace blushed 50 shades of red, after realizing what he just said. Espeically when they heard Y/n laughter from afar.

"What's going on here?" another voice asked.

"O-o-o-oh Yuuna! You're here"
