"You know," She looked thoughtful before deadpanning, "I can probably find out, even if you wish to keep it a secret. I can always find out." 'Because I'm a Deathie like you' was left unsaid; she would find out the same way she stalked found out where Jude's room was. Except she was really just teasing Gale; sure she would like to find out, but eh. There wasn't anything she could do with that information except maybe torture the poor boy.
What happened next was censored for the sake of this forum being a PG site; basically, there was a lot of hand moving and cutting on Ariane's end, and maybe a few psychotic frustrated yells of "YOU HAVE TOO MUCH HAIR FOR A BOY", "YOU'LL LOOK LIKE A MAN AFTER I AM DONE" and "I SHOULD HAVE BECOME A HAIRDRESSER".
By the time she was through, Gale's hair was shoulder length, about the same style as Marcus', but manlier... Because Ariane was the barber hairdresser and no way was she going to allow Gale to look like a girl. Or more like a girl than he did.
"Right, now to shorten it to the length you wanted," She mumbled, more to herself than to the boy, "Say... You interested in dyeing your hair?"
... What.

She hadn't said it, but he knew what she was implying. With a small sigh, Gale said - in a voice barely audible -"Eva. It's Eva."
What followed this was a series of snipping, some yells, some indignant squawking from Gale, a bit of head shaking, and finally, the odd sensation of a much lighter head and no ponytail wisping at the back of his neck.
It felt strange. Very strange. He reached up a hand, rubbing his throat as he stared at his reflection in the mirror. It was still a bit long, but it was to just above his shoulders now, and the look was odd.
Then he promptly stared at Ariane.
"....no," he said, giving her a blank look.

She paused, staring at the boy for the longest time before bursting into laughter, grinning as she ruffled his hair, finding it much more enjoyable to ruffle now that it's shorter, "So she's the one! Well, good luck, kid! You have your whole life on the island to try~" Hey, at least she approved?
"Awww, why not? Where's your sense of adventure?" She put an arm around him and pulled him in as she stared at their reflection in the mirror, her grin widening, "How about pink? Or indigo? Maybe purple? I have every color except for green." Putting her head against his, her grip on him tightened as she pointed at the green highlights in her hair, "They went here~ I did a pretty decent job, if I do say so myself!"

Yes, well, you aren't going to say anything to her, are you?" said Gale suspiciously, with a glance up at Ariane. "Marcus already tried to 'help' - " He held up two fingers like quote marks in the air. " - and it was a bit of a mess."
His eyes raised to the mirror again, Gale reaching up a hand to run his fingers through the golden locks. Then he gave Ariane a dubious sort of look that bordered on exasperated.
"Your hair looks good coloured," he said dryly. "Mine will just look odd, so let's just keep it blonde, shall we?"

"Nooooooope, not helping~ I see no point in it, really," She chuckled, patting him on the head, "And Marcus, really? Never saw him to be the type who would try to... Help." He seemed more like the type to stay out of other people's business. Then again, she could see him making things worse.
"Aww. AWWWW." She said it louder, like that would help, before sighing and shrugging, "Your loss! Pink and blonde go well together, okay?" She then started snipping away at his hair again, adjusting his head once in a while so that he was looking straight at the mirror, not wanting the hair cut to be a disaster... Like... You know... Longer on one side than the other.
"Are you even planning on telling her?" She asked, raising an eyebrow at his reflection in the mirror, a huge grin plastered on her face, "You seem like the type of person who is likely to stutter and blush around your crush."

"Marcus is....a friend..." said Gale slowly, as though he still wasn't entirely certain what that word meant, exactly. "I suppose he thought he was doing a good thing, texting her like that..."
He trailed off, musing mostly to himself as Ariane snipped at his hair, though he gave her a Look in the mirror.
"No pink," he said dryly. "That's, er...really not my thing. Rea - ow - really."
She was moving his head around to get the cut even, which was good, but it was also slightly awkward.
Especially considering that she was making him blush furiously, his cheeks dusting red.
"Yes," came the defiant answer, Gale folding his arms across his chest. "...No. Maybe. I don't know yet. And how would you know?" he asked, glowering up at the older girl. "Maybe I'm secretly smooth around ladies."
<< No you're not. >>
No I'm not.

"Marcus should have told Eva about it," She wasn't even trying to hide how amused she was, judging from the grin on her face, "Saves you the trouble of telling her yourself~ Although since you're so smooooooth," She folded her arms on top of his head, and rested her chin on top of her arms, "You should probably tell her yourself. Make sure that your cheeks are as red as they are now... It's a very nice look."
"Fine, fine... No pink, but Eva... She's always dressed in something purple. Maybe she likes the color?" Her grin widened and she leaned away, putting the pair of scissors down on her table before combing his hair, getting out all the loose, cut hair, "Maybe purple?" Nope, she wasn't giving up.

Gale glowered in the mirror at Ariane.
"He should not," he said stubbornly, folding his arms across hist chest. Ariane was clearly entertained by the whole ordeal, if the smirk on her face was evidence enough. "And who says I was going to tell her myself? I - stop that - !"
His face now resembling a fire truck, Gale tugged a strand of his blonde hair - newly short - and scowled at Ariane.
"How about we just keep it blonde the way it is."

"Right, right. Awww, you're so cute when you're angry!" She couldn't help but laugh at the color of his face, or the way he was practically glaring at her, although she soon forced herself to stop laughing in order to continue snipping away at his hair without the risk of injuring him, keeping her hands steady as she grinned away, "I was just joking anyway~" No, she was not.
"I think this should do it," She swept her hand across his shoulders to get the hair off before stroking her chin with a thoughtful look, narrowing her eyes, "It does make you look older. A little bit."
She ruffled his hair, watching some stray strands fly out as his hair quickly flopped back into position, "And it looks good even when it's messy! Ah, the wonders of short hair."

The look Gale gave Ariane clearly said something along the lines of stop calling me cute, though he clamped his mouth shut stubbornly. "Your joking often turns into....I don't even know."
She was snipping away, and his hair was getting shorter and shorter until finally - "
Gale hesitated looking, unsure of whether he wanted to actually see what he looked like now - but then, quietly, after a moment, he lifted his gaze to meet his own in the mirror.
A half sort of stranger peered back at him, Gale blinking wide eyes.
"Er," he said, a bit stupidly, and then flushed. "Thank you. It looks...different. I mean," he added hastily, reaching up a hand to rub at the back of his neck, strangely bare. A faint smile drifted across his face. "It looks...good."

The look she gave in return said 'but you are cute' and she might had been in the process of opening her mouth to say it out loud when the way he looked at himself made her chuckle, "You'll get used to it soon enough... You know what they say about haircuts - after a few days, you get used to it and start liking it as it becomes your new hairstyle. Besides-" She petted him on the top of his head and grinned at his reflection in the mirror, "It's a good look for you."
She spent a second staring at the hair on the ground before prodding the boy on his shoulder and then using the same finger to point at the hair around him, "Now, unless you want to keep that as a keepsake, I'll be throwing it all out."

He knows what That Look means, Ariane. Don't give him that "Bawww you're so cute Gale" look.
"It's...not something I'm used to, definitely," he said, frowning a little at his reflection in the mirror. "I've had long hair for the most of my life - though admittedly it was mostly due to the fact that I was just too lazy to cut it, and I didn't really have the resources to do it, anyway."
He flushed a bit, and mumbled a thank you that was slightly less audible, and stood, brushing off a few stray strands from his shirt before following Ariane's gaze downwards.
"Er. No. I think I'm good, thanks," he said dryly.

"Aw, you poor thing. Here, a gift," She shoved a pair of scissors - alright that wasn't too smart - as well as a comb and a bottle of purple hair dye into his hands, "Now you have all the resources needed to maintain your short-hairness. If you need to practice, I saw this minipet called a 'woe hound' in the labs... They have the longest hair for such a small thing."
She looked mildly envious as she grabbed Gale by the shoulders and practically pushed him to the door, so that he would not have the chance to reject her oh-so-thoughtful gifts.
"Right, off you go! Take a shower to wash all the loose hair off and don't clog up the sink or I'll have to pay you a visit," Once at the door, she grinned and ruffled his hair again before closing the door on him, yelling happily from behind the door, "Bye bye~" Now to sweep the floor and toss Gale's golden locks out the window. Heheehe.
