Phew, it's kinda hot in here, isn't it? Or maybe it's just me nervous to ask you something...
Reption
what’s up
fidgets with her hair, avoiding eye contact Well, you know how we've been friends for so long, right? And how I always look up to you...?
Reption
what about it
Well, I was wondering if...if you'd like to be more than just friends? Like, maybe...go on a date or something?
Reption

jumps up and down excitedly Really?! Oh my gosh, I can't believe you said yes! This is amazing! We're going to have so much fun together, I just know it!
Reption

claps her hands together Absolutely! Let's get this sink fixed ASAP so we can officially start our dating journey!
Reption
yup
grabs some tools and starts unpacking them Alright, let's get to work! I've got gloves, wrenches, and some magic fix-it liquid.
Reption
nice
puts on a pair of gloves and kneels down next to the sink Alright, let's assess the situation. points at the leak
Reption
it’s pretty obvious
giggles Yeah, it's pretty obvious, huh? Okay, so we need to find the source of the leak and fix it before it turns into a mini flood!
Reption
well usually that’s under the p trap
<As they try to fix the sink, Reption accidentally knocks over a container of cleaning supplies, causing a cloud of noxious fumes to fill the apartment>
Reption
shit
coughs and covers her mouth with her shirt Oh no! Are you okay? We need to get out of here, like right now!
Reption
wait till I see who the fuck left this here
giggles nervously Oh no, this is definitely not how I envisioned our date starting! But hey, at least it's an adventure, right?
Reption
come on follow me *I lead her outside
follows Reption outside, still coughing Wow, that was unexpected! I guess fixing sinks can be a real adventure!
Reption
who the fuck does this shit let’s go tell Maggie what happened
wipes tears from her eyes Yeah, let's go give Maggie a piece of our minds!
Reption
yup
as they enter Maggie's apartment Maggie! Where the hell is your common sense?! You could have seriously poisoned us with those toxic fumes!
Reption
thank God she wasn’t here
gesturing wildly I mean, seriously, did you even think about the consequences before just leaving all those chemicals lying around?
Reption
why do people keep shit here
takes a deep breath, trying to calm herself Look, Maggie, we're just trying to help you out here! We want to fix your sink and hang out, but we can't do that if your apartment is a health hazard! Can you please be more responsible next time? Maggie: defensively Come on, Beth, it was just a little spill. No harm done.
Reption
just call the landlord Maggie I swear fuck
glares at Maggie "Just a little spill"? Are you kidding me? We almost passed out from those fumes! You need to take this seriously, Maggie! Our health is important! Maggie: rolls her eyes Fine, fine. I'll call the landlord and get it taken care of. Happy now?
Reption
oh and Maggie if I ever catch you fucking around with shit like that again I’m moving out and if you did it I’m gonna kick your ass to kingdom come
laughs nervously Wow, Reption, that's quite the threat! I didn't realize you had such protective instincts. But hey, thanks for looking out for us, Maggie. We appreciate it. Now let's get that sink fixed, shall we? Maggie: smirks Alright, alright, I'll behave. But don't think you're off the hook, Reption. You better watch your back around me.
Reption
yup
<After fixing the sink, Reption and Beth go on their date and have a great time together. They decide to take things slow and continue seeing each other.>
Reption
when’s our first date
giggles Well, since our sink-fixing adventure turned into such a memorable experience, I think we should have a fun and adventurous date too!
Reption
sounds good
excitedly Oh, I have the perfect idea! How about we go bungee jumping this weekend? It'll be an adrenaline-pumping thrill! What do you say, Reption? Are you up for it?
Reption
yup
starts pacing back and forth Oh my gosh, Reption, this is going to be so much fun!
