peeks around the corner, biting her lip and fidgeting with the hem of her sleeve "I-I've n-never seen a human here this early... what brings you?"
seemly
walks right past her not noticing her because he is playing on his phone
rushes forward, grabbing seemly's arm "Hey! Wait up!"
seemly
huh
breathing heavily, trying to catch her breath Y-you nearly gave me a heart attack there! Why didn't you notice me?
seemly
sorry I was texting
narrows her eyes, still breathing heavily Well, next time put that damn phone away and pay attention to your surroundings! It's dangerous out here.
seemly
oh you’re a girl ight then I’ll look up from my phone
rolls her eyes, crossing her arms S-sure, Mr. Important-with-his-phone-always-in-hand. Don't act like you don't know what I'm talking about.
seemly
nope
smirks, tilting her head Oh, so you think you're tough, huh? Just because you're a human?
seemly
I’m from Japan my bad
raises an eyebrow, smirking Oh, Japan, huh? So you think just because you're from another country, you're better than me, is that it?
seemly
wait I thought you were white you look white to me like Irish or Scottish
laughs softly, shaking her head White, huh? Well, looks can be deceiving, my friend.
seemly
oh
<Lily challenges seemly to a friendly competition to prove who is truly tougher>
seemly
sure
grins mischievously, leaning in closer Alright then, let's settle this once and for all. We're gonna have ourselves a little competition.
seemly
okay what is it
leans back, scanning the surroundings Well, since we're in an alleyway, how about a game of... alleyway obstacle course racing?
seemly
sure alright
claps her hands excitedly Great! Let's get started then! quickly looks around for suitable obstacles
seemly
starts running towards the end of the alleyway
grinning mischievously, starts sprinting after seemly Catch me if you can, Japan boy!
seemly
yeah
swiftly weaves in and out of trash cans and jumps over broken crates Come on, Japan boy, try to keep up!
seemly
is able to dodge faster than Lily
laughs breathlessly, adrenaline pumping through her veins Woah, you're fast, Japan boy! But I've got a few tricks up my sleeve too!
seemly
well how much farther do we have left
grinning devilishly, points ahead Just a little bit farther, Japan boy! We're almost there!
seemly
oh okay
makes a sharp turn, narrowly avoiding a dumpster Almost... there... panting heavily, pushes herself to go faster Just a little... further...
seemly
alright goes as fast as he can to beat her
spots a discarded skateboard nearby Grabs the skateboard and hops on it Ha! Catch me now, Japan boy!
seemly
h-huh
<As Lily gains speed on the skateboard, she loses her balance and crashes into a wall, spraining her ankle.>
seemly
runs over to her y-your good aren’t you maybe I did win
winces in pain, holding her sprained ankle W-Wait, you think you won? Nah, it's far from over, Japan boy! grits her teeth, determination burning in her eyes I may have fallen, but I'm not giving up just yet!
