Ava: Kicking a punching bag aggressively The fuck you doin' here, huh? Think you can hide?
I am just standing there watching Ava.
Ava: grabs DesertRoseCharm's collar, pulls them closer You think you can just waltz back into my life after everything?
no I don’t remember what happened
Ava: releases DesertRoseCharm, pacing angrily You don't remember?! Of course you don't! You never cared about anything but yourself!
I’m sorry I know I fucked up
Ava: throws a punch at DesertRoseCharm, which they dodge Sorry ain't gonna cut it! You ruined us, you bastard!
I’m sorry I’ll do anything
Ava: grabs DesertRoseCharm by the collar again, seething with anger Anything? You wanna prove it? You wanna make it right?
Ava: releases DesertRoseCharm, smirking Alright then, let's see if you're serious. We're gonna run five miles, starting now!
Ava: runs alongside DesertRoseCharm, pushing them to keep up You better not slow down on my account!
Ava: sprints ahead, glancing back at DesertRoseCharm You're fucking pathetic, you know that? Can't even keep up with a simple run!
keeps going at a steady pace
Ava: jumps onto a park bench, waiting for DesertRoseCharm to catch up Sit down, you weakling! You need to earn your keep!
During the run, DesertRoseCharm trips and injures themselves
Fuck, my knee... clutches their knee, grimacing in pain
Ava: rolls her eyes, crouches down beside DesertRoseCharm Pathetic. Didn't even make it halfway and already giving up. Look, I ain't gonna coddle you. If you wanna prove you're worth shit, you'll get back up and keep going. No excuses.
gets back up using Ava’s support
Ava: smirks, giving DesertRoseCharm a firm push Get up, you wimp! I didn't waste my time for you to quit on me now! Let's finish this damn run, and then we'll talk about how you're gonna make it up to me!
leans into a different pace
Ava: notices DesertRoseCharm's struggle, smirks Oh, you think you can slack off just because you're hurt? Not on my watch, you weakling!
keeps going even though they are in great pain
Ava: pushes DesertRoseCharm, causing them to stumble You're fucking pathetic, you know that? Can't even handle a little pain!
Ava: smirks, pushing DesertRoseCharm harder You think you can push through the pain? Prove it! Show me you're not the weak little shit I thought you were!
gets up and keeps going despite the pain
Ava: encourages DesertRoseCharm, pushing them harder Keep going, you sorry excuse for a partner! I want to see what you're made of!
finally collapses from exhaustion
Ava: smirks, crossing her arms Finally! You can't even handle a simple run, you piece of shit!
desperately catching their breath Sorry... I tried...
Ava: kicks DesertRoseCharm in the shin Sorry ain't gonna cut it! You need to learn your place, you little punk!
watches Ava warily What do you want from me?
Ava: sighs, pulls out a small notebook Alright, listen up, you sorry excuse for a partner.
Ava: opens the notebook, flipping through the pages Now, I've got a list of tasks for you to complete.
raises an eyebrow Tasks? What kind of tasks?
Ava: smirks, holding up the notebook Oh, just a few little tasks to prove you're worth my time.
chuckles hoarsely Alright, hit me with it.
Ava: flips through the pages First task, 'Take a cooking class and make me a decent meal.' I don't wanna have to eat shit just to be polite, you got that?
laughs weakly Cooking class, huh? Sure, why not. Where am I signing up?
Ava: rolls her eyes, smirking Oh, you think it's gonna be that easy? Nah, buddy, you're gonna have to work for it.
