Ace nodded and followed after Inadi. With a laugh, she saluted him. "Yes sir." She teased his new and growing leadership skills. Encourage and lead on, that's how it was done. Meeting the other group she clasped her hands together, getting their attention to acknowledge they were still alive and well. When Harper asked about seeing anything strange, Ace corrected Riley. 

"We saw the Midnight Man, attacked it, and lived. Oh you know, the simple things." Ace laughed and plopped on a couch and put her feet up. "Woo, we're all here and we are all safe. Of course we are." 

By then, she was just listening to all the conversation going on, not having too much to say. It was then the, or some time in mid conversation, that an extra and unfamiliar voice was heard. Ace quickly sat up to see the Midnight Man himself appearing in one of the chairs. Before any of them said anything, he spoke.

Ace stood to get a better look at him and tilted her head. He didn't look that scary. It was probably the smile. Ace paid close attention, not wanting her mind wandering off at a time like this- although that was bound to happen because it was Ace after all. She ended wondering about other things like, how many of them probably had family and friends worried about them at the moment. Or how many of them had jobs they had to get to by morning. And more importantly, how long had they been gone from home? Not like it mattered to her. They're wasn't much waiting for her when she got back. Lesley said something about having a boyfriend back home and Ace laughed a little. 
"Not I. There's not much waiting for me back home. But," She gave a mischievous grin before patting Jasper on the shoulder gently. "I'm sure Jasper here has one, after all, most of the guys here find her irresistible!" She giggled, only further reminding her and everyone else about the multiple kisses she received. "Don't know how you do it girly, but you're a charmer." She decided not to say out loud about Harper's kiss. Haku's kiss. Or you know, the cute display between her and Inadi. Ace knew she could only embarrass the girl so much before she died or something. 

When they were outside, Ace put her hands on her hips for a brief moment. "At least it's not raining anymore. Well, come on. Can't just stand around all day." She paused and listened to Harper's motivational speech with a grin. She then patted his back and smiled. "Of course he's brave Riley! He's gotten this far, he's got the knightly sword, and-" Ace turned to look at Harper. "Your motivational speeches are getting a lot better." Ace gave him a thumbs up before moving ahead to follow the glowing orbs. [I]'What were they called again? Crisps...Orbs...Glowy- whispers- oh right! Wisps!'[/I] 

"Queeny's ball doesn't sound so bad. Unless I have to wear a dress. If so, I'll take the free food and go." She then put her fingers on the bill of her cap for a moment. "Well, unless the queen does turn out to be evil... then that would pretty bad." She mumbled aloud, but shrugged it off. "Whatever it is, let's just get these witches and get out. I say at least for the dragons."
