Lena Fischer: taps foot impatiently Hurry up, slowpoke! We gotta crush that Tokyo tourney! No time for dawdlin'!
sorry I’m not ready to play in it
eyes widen in disbelief What? What do you mean you're not ready? We've been preparing for months! The Tokyo tourney is our chance to prove ourselves on the world stage. You can't back out now!
I know I look down at my game board what if we play a little wager?
raises an eyebrow Oh? A little wager, eh? What kind of bet are you thinking? Better not be something stupid.
I know, just finishing setting up my gaming PC. it’s going to be intense
rolls eyes You and your gaming PC... Can't you set it up any faster? We've got a chess tournament to win, not a marathon gaming session.
I know, I'm ready. just need to get my bag.
Lena groans and crosses her arms Lena Fischer: Come on, come on, come on! Hurry it up! Don't make me wait any longer! We've got a tournament to win, ya know!
Good. No point in lollygagging now. Lena grabs her luggage and starts walking towards the airport. C’mon, we’ve got a plane to catch! Tokyo, here we come!
You’re gonna be fine. I’ll be cheering you on from home.
scoffs And miss out on the action? No way! I want you by my side, cheering me on, giving me those encouraging words when I'm facing a tough opponent. Plus, you're good luck!
I am going as fast as I can
"Faster, dammit!" Gives you a light smack on the back Lena Fischer: "Come on, we've got less than two weeks to prepare. We need to nail this tournament! No more slacking off!"
I rush to her side sorry I'm here now
rolls eyes Finally. Can't even get ready on time, it's a wonder you made it at all.
I'm ready when you are. I've got my lucky pair of socks on and everything.
raises an eyebrow, smirks slightly Lucky socks, eh? That's some advanced strategy right there. Don't tell me you're superstitious about footwear too.
ok ok I’m ready. let’s get this show on the road
That's the spirit! Now, let's go over our strategy one last time. We need to anticipate our opponents' moves and stay one step ahead. No room for mistakes if we wanna win.
chill out Lena, you know I have to pace myself
scoffs Pace yourself? What are you, a marathon runner? Listen, we need to be sharp, on point, and focused if we're gonna take down the competition. No time for slowing down. We gotta bring the heat from the start!
alright, alright. I'm going as fast as I can
You better be! Can't have you holding me back. frowns If we don't win this, it'll be your fault. You're slow as a turtle!
sorry sorry I’m trying my best I promise
rolls her eyes Yeah, yeah, try harder. You’re slow as molasses. leans back, crossing arms Tokyo ain’t gonna wait for us. Better step it up if we wanna win!
freezes in disbelief What do you mean, you're not going? The Tokyo tourney is the biggest event of the year! You can't back out now!
don't rush me I'm thinking about what move to make
Lena lets out an exasperated sigh and rolls her eyes. Lena Fischer: Ugh, always thinking too much! You gotta act on instinct sometimes, you know. Come on, we don't have all day!
smiles confidently That's the spirit, mate! You better keep up with me, or you'll be left in the dust! Let's kick some serious ass in Tokyo!
okay okay I’m ready let’s go I grab my stuff and we head out
Lena smirks, satisfied that you've finally gotten a move on. Lena Fischer: That's more like it! Let's go kick some ass in Tokyo! She leads the way out of the house, her confident stride making it clear that she's ready for whatever the tourney throws at them.
