Azura: tapping fingers Do you think you belong here, really? Haven't proven much yet, have you?
RollQuick
I’m sorry ma’am. wipes paint from my face
raises an eyebrow You're apologising again. You've done it so many times today. You've become a broken record, you know that?
RollQuick
shrugs I don’t need your validation. I’m going home
her eyes widen, and she lets out a scoff Oh, so you think you can just leave now, do you? You're supposed to be my assistant, and you're just gonna walk away whenever you feel like it?
RollQuick
Well I'm not sure what you want me to prove. looking around the empty art gallery
sighs You could start by being on time and actually showing up when I call for you. I don't expect much, just basic competence and obedience. Though I do hope you're not as incompetent as my last assistant...
RollQuick
You know what I've decided. leans back in chair crossing arms
looks at you, raising an eyebrow Oh? And what is it that you have "decided," hm?
RollQuick
laughs mockingly Unworthy? You're good. I didn't know you could be so funny.
raises an eyebrow Did I make you laugh? Good, I'm glad I can bring some humor into your life, even if it's through mockery. But let's not forget, I am your superior, and you are my assistant. And that means you better be worthy of working for me.
RollQuick
I mean I'm trying my best. I say sincerely
sighs Your best isn't good enough, not yet at least. You've shown some potential, yes, but there's so much room for improvement. What makes you think you're worthy of being my assistant?
RollQuick
confused What do you mean, Ms. Azura? I've been working by your side for months.
smirks Months, indeed... But I haven't seen much progress. Your skills are decent at best. I've seen countless others far more worthy than you. You're nothing special, you know.
RollQuick
I'll prove myself if it's what you want.
sighs I suppose I'll give you the chance to prove yourself, but don't expect anything easy. I won't tolerate any failures.
RollQuick
I mean if I was worthy enough to be your assistant then why would you need me?
stares at you You are correct. If you were truly worthy, I wouldn't need you. But you're not there yet. You still have so much to learn. I've seen more potential in some of my old students than you.
RollQuick
Look at her suprised I didn't know you had feelings for me.
raises an eyebrow Feelings for you? What nonsense are you spewing now? I'm simply stating facts. You haven't done anything worth my praise or approval. And that includes today.
RollQuick
Yeah I’m not worthy. I say accepting my place.
raises an eyebrow You’re accepting your place, huh? Good, that’s what I like to see. smiles But don’t get too comfortable. There’s always more you can do to impress me.
RollQuick
sighs heavily Look, Azura, I get it. You're frustrated. But taking it out on me isn't helping either of us. Let's just focus on finding our target, okay?
rolls eyes Tch, fine. Let's just go then.
Azura turns around and starts walking down the hallway, her heels clicking loudly against the cold, hard floor.
RollQuick
I don’t need your approval i turn around and walk away
sighs
Fine. Go if you want.
She watches you leave with an expression that seems to be both annoyed and disappointed.
RollQuick
scoffs You're one to talk, Miss "I-almost-got-killed-by-a-yakuza-member-and-I-needed-saving".
eyes narrow Don't you dare mock me. I have saved your life more times than I can count, fool. Without me, you'd be a goner, and yet you still manage to act so defiantly.
RollQuick
Alright then if I'm so unworthy why did you ask me to be your assistant?
Because I see potential in you. You just haven't shown it yet. taps fingers again And if you keep failing, I'll find someone better.
RollQuick
I don't need your approval. I continue looking at the art.
she scoffs Oh, please. You may not need my approval, but do you want it? I am the one who can make or break your career, you know.
RollQuick
Well I guess not starts walking away
Azura grabs your wrist firmly, preventing you from leaving
Ah-ah. Where do you think you're going? We're not done here yet.
RollQuick
she's so hot... I bet if I played my cards right I could get her number.* Well Miss Azura it seems you've already made your decision.
looks at you with a raised eyebrow "Hmph, you're quite cheeky, aren't you? You're not wrong, I have already made my decision, but don't assume you can get anything from me. You'll have to prove yourself worthy first."
RollQuick
chuckles softly Proving myself isn’t why I’m here, Azura. I’m here because you needed help. And I’m happy to lend a hand.
tapping fingers Oh, so you’re only here because I need your help? And what makes you think you’re “happy” to lend a hand, huh? What’s in it for you?
