i imagine beatrice refuses to wear a cap (especially backwards)
"it's quite frankly unprofessional and tacky." Beatrice grumbles tiredly.
Ava waves away her insistence, scoffing, muttering, "who even uses the word tacky." She flattens it on Bea's head careful to tuck the bun underneath the hat. Her hands roam at the back of her neck and Ava blames it on the height difference. She can't tell if she's pinching bea's hair from their positions. Beatrice is sat with her paperwork crooked on the table and Ava hovering above her. "C'mon bea you can take a power nap, i know you're sleepy."
Ava nudges her softly, the source of bea's exhaustion weighs on Ava's heart heavily. "Just a tiny one, I'll wake you up in 30 minutes, promise."
Beatrice's face twitches, Ava can see her face fluctuating between a range of emotions before she settles on resignation. She relents but not before questioning the validity of the hat.
Ava laughs and fixes it so it covers the top of her face, "It's a good disguise, no one will know it's you." She tidies her table up as neat as she can with Beatrice shifting. Beatrice's ears peek out from her head and Ava has to restrain herself from doing something utterly unhinged (like rubbing them softly), "See you in 30 boss."

Expanding a thought from a conversation this morning:
In general, I think "Is X out-of-character?" is not a terribly useful question for a writer. It shuts down possibility, and interesting directions you could take a character.
A better question, I believe, is "What would it take for Character to do X?" What extremity would she find herself in, where X starts to look like a good idea? What loyalties or fears leave him with X as his only option? THAT'S where a potentially interesting story lies.
In practice, I find that you can often justify much more from a character than you initially dreamed you could: some of my best stories come from "What might drive Character to do [thing he would never do]?" As long as you make it clear to the reader what the hell pushed your character to this point, you've got the seed of a compelling story on your hands.
