you sound like you're one pageant away from being your hedgehog
[ though he wouldn't be surprised if riddle had been involved when he was younger. anyway. ace feels pretty confident that he's gotten his senior to come to some realization! that's good! ]
but yeah just let her have fun. maybe she'll grow out of being a pain in the ass and be an even better croquet partner.
anyway i'm glad you're going to not going to punish me anymore! thanks riddle, you're the best
...Alright. I know you're only looking out for my best interests, and I cannot deny I've been feeling a smidge tired lately. I'll utilize Peaches' break as well, so the two of us can play together.
[ he has indeed reached an understanding. ace may be a smartass, but he's a good boy deep down. riddle's quite proud of him, so rather than doubling down, he's willing to concede and compromise.
...'compromise' being the keyword. ]
Not so fast. Before I can decide if you truly are relieved of hedgehog duty for the week, I have an assignment for you.
I will enchant an item, perhaps a flower or piece of jewelry, so that it can record your interactions with Peaches. Do hedgehog duty one time while wearing it, so I can see her behavior for myself. If it turns out she is, indeed, a pain in the bottom, you will be off punishment and as a token of apology, I will give you a Queen's Special Rule Freebie Coupon.
[ ugh. he was so close to dodging having any additional responsibilities... ]
okay what about this? we both play with peaches together. you leave the room at some point and if she acts up while i wear the enchanted thing and you see it, then you can catch her right away.
and if i'm lying, you can punish me in front of her.
[ a coupon would be a nice treat, but ace is angling for a bigger thing than just one freebie. no. he's seeing a grander prize. ]
