Yeah, he'd probably give me permission to kick your ass again. Probably better for you.
FROM: jacobs.shinobu@cdc.org
I'm not really sure if that's something that can be taught, though. I was in gymnastics at a pretty early age. I don't think you have the patience to take on a few years' work.
FROM: jacobs.shinobu@cdc.org
Hey, did you ever find any hair pins for yourself?
[Her father was a trainer, of sorts. Maybe this kind of thing ran in the family. And honestly, she'd rather try to whip someone into shape to become more of a challenge anyway.]
FROM: jacobs.shinobu@cdc.org
But if we have assignments to do, those come first. I'm not going to fuck around when I've got orders to carry out.
no subject
Well I'm still pissed. Don't you think you should apologize or maybe give me your bike??
no subject
I wouldn't have done it at all, if I were sorry. Maybe I'm an asshole, but I'm not a liar.
And no, you're not getting my bike.
no subject
So no remorse at all? That probably makes you a sociopath by the textbook definition of it.
FROM: kagari.shuusei@cdc.org
You'd be so screwed if you lived in my world!!
no subject
I never said I wasn't. I killed people for a living, even before the CDC. It's in my file. You do the math.
FROM: jacobs.shinobu@cdc.org
I didn't live in your world, so it doesn't matter.
no subject
Guess it doesn't. I've killed a lot of people for a living too. People like you.
[ Criminals like himself. ]
FROM: kagari.shuusei@cdc.org
It's just a job then. Here it's different. Aren't we friends?
no subject
I'm not here to make friends. I have to do whatever it takes to get what they promised me.
Remember that.
["Friends" was way too intimate of a word to admit to. Sorry, Kagari.]
no subject
I figured.
[ He'll end it there, before he gets too angry. ]
no subject
Then next time, don't expect any apologies from me. Especially when I warn you what's going to happen ahead of time.
no subject
Huuuuh? You never said you were going to stab me. Kick my ass, sure.
FROM: kagari.shuusei@cdc.org
But if it's not going to be an apology at least agree we're friends.
FROM: kagari.shuusei@cdc.org
Just because I'm not surprised doesn't mean I can't be pissed!!
no subject
I fight with blades. What did you think was going to happen?
FROM: jacobs.shinobu@cdc.org
If I have to do it again, I will. Do you really want to be friends with me?
FROM: jacobs.shinobu@cdc.org
You can be pissed if you want to be. It's okay to hate me, if that's easier to swallow.
no subject
I don't have to hate somebody to be pissed at them.
FROM: kagari.shuusei@cdc.org
If you were a real friend you'd let me have a free shot at you for pay back.
no subject
You didn't just let me have a free shot either. Get stronger and defeat me in a fight if you're that pissed.
FROM: jacobs.shinobu@cdc.org
And for the record, I'd never want a free shot anyway.
no subject
Come on! You're way too stingy! ⁀⊙﹏☉⁀
FROM: kagari.shuusei@cdc.org
Let's fight like real men, with our bare hands.
no subject
You really think you can take me on a hand-to-hand fight? Okay, if you really want to. Gonna have to clear it with Dagger first, though.
[Doesn't mean that she won't use her prosthetic, though. And there's at least one wrestling move she knows...]
FROM: jacobs.shinobu@cdc.org
But seriously. It's not like I'm going to attack you, without an order to. Why are you still bent about this?
no subject
Seriously? Not worth it then.
FROM: kagari.shuusei@cdc.org
Because this is how people like us sort out our differences. We talk through our fists.
FROM: kagari.shuusei@cdc.org
You're quick. You gotta teach me how you can do those flips so gracefully like that.
no subject
Yeah, he'd probably give me permission to kick your ass again. Probably better for you.

Hey, did you ever find any hair pins for yourself?
no subject
No. Why are you asking me that?
FROM: kagari.shuusei@cdc.org
I'm not asking for a serious fight anyway. Don't you know what sparring is or are you playing dumb?
FROM: kagari.shuusei@cdc.org
I've got plenty of patience!! I can prove it.
no subject
Just wondering.
[That's all she's going to say on that subject.]
FROM: jacobs.shinobu@cdc.org
I know what sparring is. I'm just not used to fights that aren't to the death.
FROM: jacobs.shinobu@cdc.org
I'm not even sure if I'd know where to even begin with teaching acrobatics. It's like you're either born with it or not.
no subject
Just watch me. I'll show you what I can do. I just need a few pointers that's all~
FROM: kagari.shuusei@cdc.org
Well get used to it. I'd like to fight you once in a while to show you how much stronger I can get if I train hard.
FROM: kagari.shuusei@cdc.org
Are you looking for hair pins or something?
no subject
All right. Fine.
[Her father was a trainer, of sorts. Maybe this kind of thing ran in the family. And honestly, she'd rather try to whip someone into shape to become more of a challenge anyway.]

But if we have assignments to do, those come first. I'm not going to fuck around when I've got orders to carry out.
FROM: jacobs.shinobu@cdc.org
No. I'm okay on hair supplies.
no subject
Huuuh? Did you ask for some before the supply drop?? You're holding out on me!
FROM: kagari.shuusei@cdc.org
After I'm done with my assignment, I'm coming after you. Fair warning.
no subject
Well. I did ask. But they gave me 8 bottles of shampoo.
But I did kinda manage to score some cans of hairspray afterward.
[This is why it pays to follow orders, Kagari.]
FROM: jacobs.shinobu@cdc.org
I should be done with my assignments before you, so I'll be waiting.
no subject
FROM: kagari.shuusei@cdc.org
Lucky!! Better conserve what you've got. You have a lot of hair.
FROM: kagari.shuusei@cdc.org
Hey we got plenty of time. Rushing might get you caught.
no subject
FROM: jacobs.shinobu@cdc.org
I don't have that much hair. But I'm not about to blow it all in one go either.
FROM: jacobs.shinobu@cdc.org
I know. I'm not stupid. [Especially since she was going to have to be smart about Bruce Banner.] You're the one that's more likely to blow it.
no subject
No I'm not! Come on, I've got experience with this stuff. You just swing your sword around until there's no body left anymore.
