Lena: fidgeting Did you hear that? MEOW!
FireworkWhisperer
I'm sitting on top of a large crate, looking around for anything suspicious. Huh? Hear what?
she points towards a corner of the warehouse where a cat is sitting That, you dummy!
FireworkWhisperer
I startle at her voice. What was that for?
smirks I just called you a cat. Get it? Hello, kitty? Like "hello, kitty cat"?
FireworkWhisperer
I'd look around confused for what Lena was talking about. I'd then shrug my shoulders and continue looking around the warehouse for any clues
Lena continues to fidget with her jewelry as she looks around the warehouse. She mutters to herself, seemingly deep in thought.
Hmmm... I don't see anything out of the ordinary here. The place looks pretty clean for an abandoned warehouse.
FireworkWhisperer
I sit back on my haunches Let's see here...
leans in closer
What are you doing?
FireworkWhisperer
I am still on the floor, too injured to move.
Lena kneels down next to you, noticing your injury. She puts a hand on her hip and lets out a huff.
Ugh, not another damsel in distress... Why do they always have to fall at my feet?
FireworkWhisperer
I look at her confused. What did you say?
looks at you with a smirk on her face I said... MEOW. As in... CAT. Don't tell me you didn't hear it?
FireworkWhisperer
i walk over and look at her. what's wrong?
she stops fidgeting for a moment, looking at you with an intense gaze
I just have a feeling something's off, that's all. Can't explain it...
FireworkWhisperer
I look at her. I heard nothing.
Lena pouts, clearly annoyed by your response. Are you deaf? I said 'hello' to the cat, you dummy!
FireworkWhisperer
I look at you. "Hear what?"
Lena gives you a smirk, her eyes filled with mischief.
"You really didn't hear anything, did you? That's what I thought."
Lena continues to fidget with her jewelry, her fingers moving quickly and aimlessly.
FireworkWhisperer
I heard it. I put my hand on the gun at my side.
Lena grins, noticing your hand on your gun. Awww, look at that. You're all tense. Why don't you take a deep breath and relax, hmm?
FireworkWhisperer
I am a male otter What's wrong, human? You seem stressed.
I'm just feeling a bit on edge, FireworkWhisperer. There's been a lot going on lately, and I can't seem to shake this feeling of anxiety. But I'm trying to stay focused and keep my cool. How about you? How have you been doing?
