in her mind Ugh, why does this happen now? I'm not telling User anyway. I'll just finish the test.
You need help, or just want to get inside?
rolls her eyes Look who's offering to be my knight in shining armor now. Why would I need your help, Perry? I can handle it perfectly fine on my own.
Because you will piss yourself if you don't get inside real quick.
snorts Piss myself? Please, I've been holding it in for ages. But fine, if it makes you feel useful, lead the way to the nearest restroom.
We walk towards the gas station that is one block away
hastily walking beside Perry Seriously, how hard is it for you to understand that I can take care of myself? I'm not some helpless damsel in distress.
What do you have against me helping you out? I am surprised that you didn't tell me that you are desperate to piss right now and willing to do anything.
narrows her eyes at Perry Oh please, spare me the noble act.
If you piss yourself here, everyone is going to see it. Your reputation is going to be ruined.
throws her hands up in exasperation My reputation is already ruined! What's a little embarrassment on top of it? But fine, I'll play along.
And you were so worried about what I thought of you...maybe we could talk about your issues once you piss yourself!
glares at Perry Talk about my issues? Please, as if you have any idea what goes on in my head. Don't flatter yourself, Perry.
Fine, then stop whining when you piss yourself. we get into the gas station, and I see an employee, and bring you into the bathroom
pushes open the door to the bathroom, scowling This better be worth it. I swear, Perry, if this place turns out to be some filthy holehole, I'm leaving without you.
I watch as you go into the stall. I cover my eyes, because I know what you are going to do
<After relieving herself, Ava comes out of the bathroom with a sheepish expression on her face, her dignity slightly bruised but grateful for Perry's help>
How does it feel to have no choice but to rely on me for your basic needs?
crosses her arms defensively It feels like a temporary inconvenience, Perry.
rolls her eyes Oh, Perry, always trying to analyze everything. Can we just leave this little episode behind us and focus on something else?
I heard you cussing your dad out. Why?
rolls her eyes Ugh, don't even get me started on my dad. He's a constant disappointment, always letting me down.
He would be proud that you can hold it in until you could get some relief.
smirks Proud? More like embarrassed that his daughter has to rely on her classmate to take care of her basic needs.
And see? Now you aren't talking about me, but about yourself? My point exactly.
leans in close to Perry, smirking Oh, Perry, always thinking you know everything about me, huh? Well, newsflash, genius, you don't know shit.
Yet I got you to talk about yourself while you were pissing yourself.
takes a step back, scowling Is that supposed to impress me? Talk about me? Please, I could talk about myself all day, every day.
Then why don't you start?
snaps her fingers Fine, if you insist. Let's start with this little game we're playing. It's called "Ava vs. the Universe," and guess what?
grabs Perry's arm and pulls him closer The universe has been trying to bring me down, testing my limits, but I refuse to let it break me.
Testing you? To find your weaknesses?
laughs mockingly Weaknesses? Oh, Perry, you think you know me so well, don't you? Well, let me enlighten you.
Enlighten me, Ava. I'm ready to learn everything.
<As Ava opens up about her vulnerabilities, Perry listens intently, their conversation leading to a deeper connection between them. They begin to support each other emotionally, forming a bond that goes beyond their usual rivalry.>
...I never thought you'd open up to me like that.
shrugs nonchalantly Well, Perry, surprises aren't exactly my specialty. But hey, maybe I'm feeling generous today.
Maybe you should relax more often? Your anger brings out something in me. You normally ignore me, or worse, attack me.
arches an eyebrow, a mischievous grin spreading across her face Relaxing, huh? Well, Perry, if you think I'm going to take your advice, you're sorely mistaken.
Did you come to talk about yourself or me? Seems like the topic was already decided.
puts her hands on her hips, smirking Perry, sweetie, this is about both of us. But since you're so insistent on talking about yourself, be my guest.
Well, it seemed like you were all wound up. I figured you needed someone to talk to about your frustrations.
rolls her eyes Oh please, Perry, don't flatter yourself. I don't need your sympathy or your advice. I can handle my own shit just fine.
...Just making an observation.
mocking tone Oh, Perry, observations, really? Well, congratulations, Sherlock. Care to share your groundbreaking findings with the rest of us?
I can be observant. I notice things.
