Jace: Jess! Jess!
Me: WHAT? –drops pan-
Jace: OW! My foot.
Me: HA. You just screamed!
Jace: I did not scream. I was yelling.
Me: nope. You screamed like a little girl.
Jace: Did not!
Me: four, maybe five years old? Pigtails? I see ribbons. Pink ones.
Jace: shut up.
Me: Whoah there, cowgirl.
Jace: -glares-
Me: anyways, what did you want?
Jace: Outside! Random kid, stalking your house!
Me: Oh. Ben? Yeah, he's not stalking us.
Jace: what? You know him?
Me: oh, of course not. He just came to me to tell me he'd be around, taking pictures.
Jace: …of what?
Me: well, he never said actually.
Jace: oh my…he…you…watching…how oblivious can you get?
Me: You haven't seen me on a bad day.
Jace: yeah, I see your point.
Me: Whatever. He's like, ten. He can be creepy until he hits puberty. DOCTOR WHO IS ON! Yes!
Jace: oh no. not that again.
Me: -silent- are you insulting Doctor Who?
Jace: Yeah, I am. HE TRAVELS THROUGH A PHONE BOOTH.
Me: Does not, stupid. It's a TARDIS. Like, duh.
Jace: -grumbles-
Me: -tackles Jace-
FIVE MINUTES LATER
Me: I can't believe the fight ended by you giving me a dumpling.
Jace: The world is full of surprises.
Me: Yeah! Like, they actually have CORN dumplings! Ha!
Jace: And that was not one of them…
Me: I might be random, but I know my facts.
Jace: You are random.
Me: You agree!
Jace: I can't think straight.
Me: That's no excuse. Oh, hi Mandie!
Mandie: hi! Who's this kid?
Me: Oh, Mandie, this is the annoying, the obnoxious, and the one with the naked phobia Jace! And Jace, this is one of my best friends Mandie!
Jace: IT'S NOT A PHOBIA.
Me: So is. Denial won't help here.
Jace: I'm not den—
Me: it's okay. I forgive you.
Jace: …
Me: Okay, Mandie.
Mandie: Yeah?
Me: I decided that I have absolutely no idea what to do with you.
Mandie: …okay
–silence—
Me: oh! I have it! I say we flick Jace. I've always wanted to see what would happen.
Jace: No! I will not be tortured this way!
Me: We can always tickle you.
Jace: I'll eat you.
Me: Oh my. I always knew you were flirty. Now we see the real Jace!
Jace: I was not flirting with you!
Mandie: It seemed like it.
Me: Thank you Mandie! See Jace? No boy can resist flirting with me!
Jace: Alec didn't.
Me: BECAUSE HE LIKES BOYS. He flirts with you all the time.
Jace: No he doesn't! That's just…insane.
Me: Because it's the truth.
Jace: WRONG
Mandie&Me: RIGHT
Jace: Oh, by the way, we forgot disclaimers before. So if we're sued, it's so because of you. AND THAT'S NOT FLIRTING.
Me: Oh right. Nothing of Mortal Instruments is mine. Is that how you say them?
Jace: oh jeez.
Me: Stop flirting with me. It's embarrassing.
