[at Jason's funeral]
Dick: *places his hand on the headstone and sobs*
Dick: How could you do this to me? We are so understaffed.

More Ace ramblings but this time from his pov (ish)
Ace thought he knew what love was. He’d become so familiar with that particular feeling, having thought he was the type of person to fall easily.
He thought he knew what love was. He thought he’d been in love.
There was Laura, a summer fling, but to him, maybe something more. He couldn’t help but fall for her mischievous smile and confident nature—so opposite from himself. And then she’d left. But she came back and he found himself there again, easily falling into what he assumed was love. He’d been enamored, taken by her spell, but that’s not love, is it? So he’d said no to her offer of Paris, knowing he couldn’t do it. Not when he didn’t love her. Not when he knew he loved Horseshoe Bay.
There was Bess, but even at the height of his crush, Ace knew he didn’t love her. But he thought he could easily love her. He knew if he ever got a chance with her, he’d fall, and fall hard. And he was right, in a sense. Because he did love Bess, but it wasn’t a romantic love.
Amanda was someone he really thought he loved. He was giddy at the sight of her, nervous, really, and when she’d reciprocated his feelings, he’d been ecstatic. This was it. This was love, what he’d been waiting for. But then they went on their road-trip and something immediately felt off, like something was missing, like he’d forgotten a piece of himself. But he still thought he loved her—he wanted to love her. And he tried, he really did. He helped her dad, tried to do the right thing, and it had cost him. He’d thought that was love, but he’d only gotten hurt. He knew that maybe with more time, with different circumstances, with certain people removed, he would get to love her. But they didn’t get that time.
Ace thought he knew what love was. He thought it was the quick fall, the exhilaration of feelings, of desire, and the simple want to love and be loved. Because that’s really what it came down to. Ace wanted to love someone.
And he did. It just was not what he expected. Because for Ace, love was slow, a strong bond built over time. It was the connection of minds, the desire to always be by someone’s side, the feeling of completeness and peace in their presence, even when the world was otherwise going to shit. Love was almost invisible, if only because it felt so natural.
Ace thought he knew what love was, but he didn’t, not until he finally understood that he was in love with Nancy Drew.

Nancy never really had walls up around Ace, even before they became actual friends and that is something so important to me

Every Ace and Nancy Moment  1x07 The Tale of the Fallen Sea Queen 8/9
Ace: Hey. I have a new theory for you. Nancy: I have a theory, too. I think you're working for McGinnis. You were the only one that he didn't bring in for questioning the night Tiffany died. And I saw you together at the funeral. What were you guys talking about? You've been cagey on the phone, and then running off to who knows where. You heard my phone call with John Sander, and less than an hour later, McGinnis is talking to me about poison. Ace: It's not like that. A year ago, McGinnis caught me hacking into a government computer system, which is a federal offense. Nancy: Why would you ? Ace: Hey - the point is, I thought my life was over, but he offered me this deal. He'd make sure that I stay out of jail, and all I had to do was look into a few things for him, keep my eyes open around town, which was easy enough, - until Tiffany got murdered. Nancy: You could've told us. Ace: That would have violated the deal. I can't go to jail. Listen, I'm sorry. I'm not trying to make excuses. I - I messed up. But will you at least let me try to make it up to you here? I learned something about Laura. Nancy: I - how am I supposed to trust anything you say? Ace: I'm gonna fix this.
