[ Cackling with laughter, North swings her around so that he can put her over his shoulder, letting her kick her feet without a care in the world. The owl observing them hoots amusement, before it goes back to Ombric's sleeping quarters with its brethren. ]
I have no doubts that you will! What a fierce Queen of Thieves you would make.
[ Carrying her still, he brings his free hand not keeping her secure at her back to her side. He wiggles his fingers into her ribs, grin wide and bright. ]
[ Finally he swings her around, dropping her into a chair so that he can put both of his hands into the tickling force. His reach is focused around her ribs, and he lets out booming laugh in response to her cries. ]
[ No doubt it was, but Nicholas is nothing if not merciful. Ruthless in battle, yes, but his casualties are strangely few in numbers compared to other bandits that seek riches throughout the four kingdoms and beyond. In the north, however, he will do all that he can to keep them out.
If his reputation precedes him, he won't have to do much to protect what's become his treasures. ]
[ He's not particularly surprised by the turn of events, but regardless North makes a show of it as he spins about in circles, as if trying to free himself of the little spitfire attached to him. ]
[Katherine is ready to make a show of it too, fierce in her gestures and bold in word-- until her little sketchbook tumbles out of her pocket.]
Oh-- oops.
[Letting go, she hurries to pick it up- she'd rather not leave it on the floor, after all. There were many important drawings in there, especially of Ombric and their new friend.]
[ Freed of the little girl, North stops spinning about and rights himself, a little dizzy before he turns back towards where she's scampered to pick up her book.
Coming about to where she is, he leans forward, hand braced on her shoulder. ]
[She can practically smell his curiosity and it pleases her-- now she's the one with a secret Nicholas wants to know. And she hasn't got very many stories of her own, not ones that could rival those of her friend. But she will get more, she knows.
Holding the book closed at her hips, she seems amused.]
He really has seen most everything. I'm sure it's not difficult to find things to complain about!
[ He could very well snatch the journal from her, and they both know it. The thief has taken greater things than a little girl's sketchbook, after all, and from greater forces that outnumbered him in astronomical odds. But Nicholas never stole from children when he grew older, and he would not start now with one that had somehow managed to weasel into his heart.
Body leaning down further, he calmly props his chin on top of her head, just to be a general nuisance (while also offering a bit of affection). ]
And with how ornery he is, he'll complain about nothing at all if it suits his fancy.
no subject
Oh-- bother, Nicholas! That's hardly fair!
[Squirming a little, she tries to frown, but is too consumed with giggles.]
I was only seeing what you were up to. Have to keep vigilant with a bandit in out midst!

I think my first theft will be you, though!
no subject
[She squirms a little more, pushing her palms against his back so she can keep her head up and properly scold him.]
I'll become a better bandit and swindle you of all your things if you do!
no subject

no subject
[She cuts herself off with a squeal, trying to squirm away from Nicholas's tickles.]
NO- no, no no, you're terrible!
no subject
[ Finally he swings her around, dropping her into a chair so that he can put both of his hands into the tickling force. His reach is focused around her ribs, and he lets out booming laugh in response to her cries. ]
The most terrible!
no subject
Noo- that isn't fair at all-- Nicholas!
[It was difficult to take down a king of thieves when one was ticklish.]

And what will you do about it!
no subject
[With a good hold on North's arm she manages to push free, ducking under that arm and slipping around him to jump onto his back.]

no subject
What? You're going to fall over, aren't you. You should be more careful.
no subject
I don't think I've ever done that before.
[ His voice is a little childishly delighted, truth be told. ]
no subject
[Grinning, she leans against him and flips through her sketchbook.]
So you were studying with the owls, then.
no subject
[ His arm slips around to settle on her collar, entire forearm resting from shoulder to shoulder comfortably. ]
They're interesting to talk to, but I'm still getting the hang of it.
no subject
[It's a little jab, but it hasn't got any bite She keeps flipping through her book, nodding.]
I haven't learned too much yet. But they're very good at teasing and getting Ombric very ruffled if he leaves me to take care of them.
no subject
[ He accepts the jab gracefully, peering down at her book as he continues to lean forward. It's not enough to disturb her own leaning, at least. ]
I believe he was trying to talk me into getting him and his friends something to snack on, actually.
no subject
[Flipping past some of the newer drawings, she almost tips the book away.]
If you do it, Ombric will complain. He says they're going to get too big to fly if I'm left in charge of them.
no subject
[ His nose scrunches as she keeps him from seeing her art, but he doesn't press despite the curiosity itching at him. ]
Ombric complains about a lot of things. The elderly often find new ways to.

She sticks out her tongue when he leans on her head, and grins.]
If the owls hear you, they'll tell him! Watch it.
no subject
I'll just bribe their silence from them.
no subject
[She brings the book up to tap him on the forehead, making an attempt to pout past her smile.]
I'm not a chin rest!
