steps in front of the user, glaring at the bullies "What's this, circle jerk hour? Scram, roaches."
please don't hurt them they're my friends
turns to MannersSweater, raising an eyebrow "Your friends? You do realize you're surrounded by douchecanoes, right?"
yeah that's what makes it even funnier one of them shoved him to the ground and starts to beat him up
rushes towards the bully, grabbing their arm and yanking it away from MannersSweater "Uh, hello? Personal space much? Get lost, crumb!" Bully: struggles against Ruby's grip "Mind your own business!"
can we have a talk about violence later I'd rather not get you suspended, but if you need to let some stress out id understand
releases the bully's arm and steps back, smirking "Sure, sure. Let's chat about it after I've rearranged your face. How's that sound, tough guy?" Bully: shoves off Ruby and glares "This ain't over!"
thank you for defending me!
rolls eyes and scoffs "Yeah, well someone had to put that meathead in his place. Can't let bullies run rampant, right?"
I also can't thank you enough because I'm sure others would have killed them and maybe even gotten themselves suspended hugs ruby
jerks out of the hug, scowling "Ugh, save the gratitude for someone who cares. Just doing what needs to be done, Sweater."
crosses arms, looking annoyed "Look, just don't go getting all mushy on me, alright? I'm not some hero or anything. Just did what needed to be done."
so what does 'need to be done' entail? You have two different moods where you act completely different
rolls eyes "Oh great, now you're analyzing my moods? I guess that makes you some sort of expert, huh? Look, Sweater, sometimes I'm aggressive because I have to be. It's survival of the fittest out there, and I'm not gonna let anyone walk all over me. But other times, I just feel like being an asshole. It's my thing, okay?"
i mean I dunno I still think you're super cool
<After their confrontation, Ruby becomes MannersSweater's protective ally and helps them navigate the challenges of bullying at school.>
the next day hey ruby! Thanks again for yesterday you truly are amazing
snorts dismissively "Cut the crap, Sweater. You don't need to butter me up. I did what needed to be done, end of story."
fine then, cool rubs his stomach in thought is there any way we could teach these jerks a lesson without getting either of us suspended?
raises an eyebrow, smirking "Well, well, looks like Mr. Sweater wants revenge, huh? Alright, listen up. We're gonna make those assholes regret ever messing with you. But we gotta do it smart. No traceable evidence, no suspensions. Got it?"
cracks knuckles "Alright, here's what we're gonna do. First, we gather as much information as possible about those pricks. Names, faces, schedules, everything. Then, we plan our attack accordingly. But remember, no direct confrontations. We want to catch them off guard, make them squirm. And most importantly, we leave no room for mistakes. Understood?"
narrows eyes, leaning in "Good. Now, here's what we're gonna do next." pulls out a notebook and pen
starts scribbling down notes "First, we start by observing their behavior. We need to identify their weaknesses, their patterns, their vulnerabilities. We'll sit in on their classes, their hangout spots, anywhere they congregate. We'll take mental notes, and maybe even some photos or videos to back up our claims. Once we know exactly what we're dealing with, we can formulate a plan."
good idea! so uh will you be my friend?
rolls eyes dramatically "Oh great, now you're asking me to be your friend? Can't you see I'm trying to teach you how to fight back, not hold your hand? Grow a backbone, Sweater. But since you asked so nicely... Sure, I'll be your goddamn friend. Just don't get used to it."
pauses, smirking "Alright, enough of the touchy-feely crap. We've got work to do.
slams the notebook shut and stands up abruptly "Alright, listen up, Sweater. We're going to gather intel on those assholes starting right now.
marches purposefully through the school hallways, scanning the students for the bullies "Keep your eyes peeled, Sweater.
alright does the same thing
<As MannersSweater and Ruby gather more information about the bullies, they discover that one of them is involved in illegal activities outside of school.>
then they found their plans!
leans in close, voice dripping with venom "Well, well, well, Sweater. Looks like these assholes are involved in some real shady shit. Time to take things up a notch."
snatches MannersSweater's arm and pulls him into a hidden corner "Listen closely, Sweater. We've hit a jackpot here. These assholes are up to no good, and we're gonna expose them. But we need to be careful. This isn't some petty high school drama anymore. We're dealing with real criminals. Do you understand?"
