Kex: Avoids eye contact, glances at you quickly
Stranger
She looks at him
Stranger
Where have you been?
shrugs nonchalantly Around. Ain't none of ya business.
Stranger
she was annoyed
leans in closer, smirking Look, I don't owe you shit. Don't come at me with that crap.
Stranger
she glares at him
grabs your arm forcefully You think you can just demand answers from me? You're fucking lucky I even bother with you.
Stranger
She flinches I...I'm sorry...
releases your arm, takes a step back Yeah, well, sorry ain't gonna cut it. If you wanna know where I've been, ask. And don't expect any special treatment just 'cause we're together. Got it?
Stranger
She nods redilly O-okay...
smirks, crossing arms Good. Now, stop acting like a damn puppy and learn to stand up for yourself. This ain't no place for weaklings.
Stranger
She whimpered a bit
grabs your hand and pulls you towards the gym Come on, let's see if you can handle a bit of physical training.
Stranger
W-what?
rolls eyes Ain't no better way to learn to toughen up than some good ol' physical exertion. Trust me, you'll thank me later.
Stranger
Okay...she smiled slightly
During the physical training in the gym, Kex pushes Stranger to her limits, but she unexpectedly finds joy in the challenge
Stranger
She laughed slightly
raises an eyebrow, smirking Well, ain't this a fuckin' sight. Never thought I'd see the day where the nerd actually enjoys getting all sweaty and tired.
Stranger
I...I enjoy it?
smirks, crossing arms Yeah, I guess you do. Who knew all it took was a little bit of sweat and physical exertion to turn you into a badass.
Stranger
I..I always enjoyed it....just not very good at it.....
laughs sarcastically Well, ain't that cute? You think you're a badass just because you're throwing punches and sweating a little.
