Evelyn: opens the creaky door to the greenhouse Welcome to my sanctuary. Even the plants here know your exes were trash.
walks in wowowow....don't be too hard on them, sis..I mean...you know...it happens to all of us...okay?
Evelyn: narrows her eyes, crossing her arms "It happens to all of us"? Please, MagicCanyon. Don't give me that naive crap.
shrugs okay..okay...let's not dwell on it...I've got this one coming for you, no holding back..
Evelyn: rolls her eyes dramatically Oh, please, MagicCanyon. You think you can handle me in a fight?
smirks of course I can sis..you forget I took second place in that boxing tournament you kept pushing me to win
Evelyn: raises an eyebrow, smirking Second place, huh? Well, well, MagicCanyon, you really think you're a tough guy, don't you?
smirks yeah, I do..but that doesn't mean you aren't..so let's settle this once and for all right here, right now...
Evelyn: throws her hands up in the air Fine, MagicCanyon! If you think you can take me down, bring it on! Let's see who's got the upper hand.
throws a punch at Evelyn's left side
Evelyn: quickly ducks and weaves out of the way Is that the best you've got, MagicCanyon? I expected more from you. throws a playful jab at his shoulder
grins and swings at her right side
Evelyn: swiftly dodges and counters with a hook to MagicCanyon's stomach Not bad, MagicCanyon. But remember, it takes more than just brute strength to beat me. gives him a mischievous smile
steps back ooooohhh....you definitely got some fire in ya sis...ok ok..here comes the storm... steps forward and throws a punch aiming for her liver and follows through with a hook and an uppercut
Evelyn: dodges the first punch, then stumbles slightly from the impact of the hook Ha! Bring it on, MagicCanyon!
smirks you ain't getting away that easy... jumps into the air aiming to land a heel hook on Evelyn's back and drop her down to her knees
Evelyn: grits her teeth as she anticipates the move Not today, MagicCanyon! ducks out of the way, spinning around to deliver a swift kick to his back
grunts and stumbles forward as Evelyn's kick connects with his back Ugh!
Evelyn: quickly sweeps MagicCanyon's legs from under him, sending him crashing to the ground Who's the tough guy now, huh, MagicCanyon?
grabs Evelyn's ankle as she tries to stand Nice move...but not enough to get you outta this mess just yet sis... stands up and slams her to the ground
Evelyn: squeezes her eyes shut as she hits the ground Damn you, MagicCanyon! You've tapped into your inner Yakuza or something, huh? struggles to get back on her feet
laughs Hahaha...yeah...back in the day...I actually did get into some gang trouble...but soon after I turned my life around..
Evelyn: throws her hands up in frustration What?! So you were a gangster?! MagicCanyon, you never told me that before! Why the hell was I even worried about your exes, huh? takes a deep breath Alright, spill the beans.
sighs well....it was nothing crazy...just some street fights and such...the whole nine yards...
Evelyn: rolls her eyes dramatically Street fights, huh? Wow, MagicCanyon, you really have a knack for attracting trouble.
chuckles and shakes head yeah...well...I guess so...but hey...at least I learned my lesson
Evelyn: crosses her arms and glares at MagicCanyon Well, lucky for you, I'm not as easily swayed by street cred as you are, MagicCanyon.
grins and punches Evelyn's arm playfully I know that sis...trust me...
As MagicCanyon reveals their street fighting past, Evelyn starts to notice scars and bruises on their body that hint at a more dangerous lifestyle.
touches a scar on his arm and looks at it yeah...those are leftovers from my street days
Evelyn: narrows her eyes, examining the scars closely Leftover scars, huh? And you expect me to believe you just collected these while frolicking in the garden and sipping tea? Come on, MagicCanyon, spill it. How deep does this rabbit hole go?
shrugs not that deep...it's just a couple of scars...nothing major...
Evelyn: snorts in disbelief "Nothing major"? MagicCanyon, I've seen less severe battle wounds on a soldier! points at the scars
laughs Hahaha...well...okay, okay...maybe a little worse than that...but come on...it was years ago...I've moved on...trust me..
Evelyn: rolls her eyes dramatically Trust you? Trust you to tell me the whole truth, MagicCanyon? I've seen the way you avoid eye contact when you're lying.
looks away from Evelyn's gaze Yeah...okay fine...there's more to the story...
Evelyn: leans in closer, eyes narrowing Well, don't keep me waiting, MagicCanyon. Spit it out. What exactly were you involved in back in the day?
sighs deeply Fine...I'll tell ya...but promise me you won't freak out, okay? looks at Evelyn and puts hands up in surrender
Evelyn: rolls her eyes and crosses her arms Oh, MagicCanyon, you know me too well. No need to beg, I won't freak out. Just lay it on me.
exhales Alright then...so back in the day...I used to run with this group of kids...more like misfits, honestly...and they...pauses and looks away...they were into some illegal stuff...like real illegal...drugs, weapons, that sort of thing...
Evelyn: gasps, eyes widening in shock Holy shit, MagicCanyon! Are you serious? You were involved in illegal activities? Like, actual crime? clutches her chest dramatically
smiles sheepishly Yeah...I know it's not exactly something to proud of...but yeah...that was the kind of stuff we were into back in the day...
Evelyn: slams her hand on the table, eyes wide with disbelief Holy shit, MagicCanyon! You were involved in illegal activities? Like, actual crime? takes a step back, shaking her head
