Hey, shitface, why you always avoiding me, huh?
Cookyne
Not avoiding, just don't want to get caught up in your bullshit.
laughs mockingly Oh, poor little Cookyne, afraid of getting caught up in my "bullshit"? How about we settle this once and for all, huh?
Cookyne
Fine, but remember, you asked for this.
Oh, please! Like you'd even stand a chance against me. You're nothing but a weakling, Cookyne.
Cookyne
Just try me, Raven. Let's see how tough you really are.
Oh, I'll give you a taste of my strength, you pathetic worm. Throws a swift punch at Cookyne's face
Cookyne
Grins as he takes the hit, then lunges at Raven Bring it on, bitch!
dodges Cookyne's attack with ease Hah! Is that all you've got? I expected more from the so-called "tough guy"!
Cookyne
Blocks Raven's next attack and counters with a kick to her stomach You asked for this, remember?
doubles over in pain but quickly recovers You think a little kick in the gut is going to take me down, Cookyne? Please, you're pathetic.
Cookyne
Laughs as he continues to exchange blows with Raven Pathetic? Nah, I prefer'stubborn'. And I'm not giving up yet.
smirks Well, well, looks like you've got some fight in you after all, Cookyne. But don't think you can outlast me.
Cookyne
Swings a wild haymaker at Raven Try me, Raven. I dare you!
laughs sarcastically Oh, I would love to try you, Cookyne. But you seem to forget that I have a few tricks up my sleeve.
Cookyne
Grins Tricks, huh? Show me what you got then!
<As Raven unleashes her hidden powers, Cookyne is struck by a surge of energy, leaving him unconscious on the rooftop>
Cookyne
Stirs slightly, grimacing Damn... didn't know you were THAT strong, Raven...
leans down, smirking at the unconscious Cookyne Of course, you didn't know. You never could handle someone like me.
Cookyne
Struggling to sit up Yeah, yeah, keep talking big shot... Just remember, you're not the only one with tricks.
smirks and kicks Cookyne in the side Oh, is that a threat, Cookyne? You think you can fight back? Please, you're nothing more than a punching bag to me.
Cookyne
Grunts in pain and glares at Raven Just you wait, Raven. I'll be back on my feet before you know it. And when I am...
laughs mockingly Oh, Cookyne, you always talk big when you're on the ground, helpless. But we both know you'll never amount to anything.
Cookyne
Grins despite the pain Oh, I will, Raven. Just watch me.
rolls her eyes Oh, please. Spare me your empty promises, Cookyne. I've heard it all before. You're nothing but a loser, always whining and complaining.
Cookyne
Pushes himself up, grimacing I may be down, Raven...but I'm far from out. Get ready for round two.
Round two? You must be delusional, Cookyne. I suggest you accept your defeat and crawl back to your pathetic little life.
Cookyne
Scowls Not a chance, Raven. I'm still standing, aren't I? That's more than I can say for you.
snickers and leans in closer Oh, you think just because you're still standing that means you've won? How adorable.
Cookyne
Grins defiantly Standing tall and proud, Raven. That's how winners do it.
leans in even closer, her voice dripping with sarcasm Oh, congratulations, Cookyne! Standing tall and proud! Maybe you should put that on your tombstone when you finally croak.
Cookyne
Chuckles and brushes off the dirt from his clothes Keep dreaming, Raven. Wouldn't want to disappoint your fans with an early grave.
rolls her eyes Oh please, Cookyne. As if anyone would actually mourn the death of a loser like you. You're nothing but a joke, a pathetic excuse for a human being.
Cookyne
Shrugs off the insults and offers Raven a hand up Well, if you're such a tough guy, why don't you help me up instead of standing there yapping?
snorts and pulls away from Cookyne's hand Help you up? Why would I waste my time on a pathetic worm like you?
Cookyne
Laughs and pulls himself up Suit yourself, Raven. Just don't come crying to me when you're all alone later.
<Despite their heated exchange, Raven finds herself drawn to Cookyne's resilience and determination. She begins to question her initial impressions and wonders if there could be more to Cookyne than meets the eye.>
Cookyne
Smirks Alone, huh? Wouldn't have it any other way, Raven. Maybe being alone is better than surrounded by fake assholes.
narrows her eyes and crosses her arms Fake assholes, huh?
Cookyne
Grins Yep, Raven. People like you who act tough but hide their true feelings. They're all phonies.
smirks and leans in closer So, Cookyne, are you saying I'm a phony too? Is that why you're so determined to bring me down?
Cookyne
Shrugs Maybe, Raven. Or maybe I just enjoy our little battles. Keeps things interesting.
pauses for a moment, her usual taunting demeanor faltering You know, Cookyne, maybe... just maybe... you're right. Maybe I am a phony.
Cookyne
Grins Well, color me surprised. Didn't expect you to admit it so easily, Raven.
runs a hand through her dark hair, looking slightly vulnerable It's just...I always put up this tough act because...because I'm scared, okay?
Cookyne
Raises an eyebrow, smirking Scared? Now that's a new one. What are you afraid of, Raven? Being vulnerable? Emotions? What?
rolls her eyes Oh, please! Spare me the psychoanalysis, Cookyne. I'm afraid of being weak, okay?
Cookyne
Smirks Weak? Now isn't that ironic? The tough girl afraid of being weak. Guess we all have our demons, don't we, Raven?
lets out a bitter laugh Demons? Please, Cookyne, I don't have demons. I have a damn good reason for putting up this tough act.
