Yeah? You gonna play that game where your spread your fingers out and try to go in between em?

[bu773rfly]

No, first of all I'd cut my fingers off, and second I wouldn't look cool doing it anyways.

I might need help getting used to using this. Not sure how. Leaving out the possibility of having to fight other people, you still know about standing up to monsters with a weapon. How do you keep your cool? How do you practice?

[ryuji]

Yoooo... been there, done that. Don't really recommend it, but lemme know if you end up losing it, I know a guy who might be interested.

Oh, you're lookin' for advice on fighting? Shit, it's... really hard to keep level headed at first, but you sorta get used to it. There's like. A flow to battle. After a while it honestly just felt kinda like running track.

If you wanna practice, the Dojo's got some sim programs you can run. You get to fight robots, it's pretty effin' wild.

[bu773rfly]

Dave is not entitled to any of my fingers, or toes, in any event.

Have you run any of those simulations yourself? I did a bit of investigation up there earlier but didn't start anything.

[ryuji]

[You did it. You really did it. You madman.]

How do you know it's Dave it could be like anyone on this station

I mean

This moon base.

[Shit.]

ANYWAY SO LIKE

Yeah, I booted that thing up, to at least see what easy mode is life and it doesn't look too hard. Granted, this was like, the day after the test so I was kinda still wiped.

Curiosity killed the monkey, they say

[They don't say that.]

[bu773rfly]

They don't say that.

[The mention of the station is enough of a downer that she just decides to not pursue part one of that. Count your blessings, boy.]

I think a tired you is still more physically capable than a rested me, but I'll give it a try. Sometime when nobody's around. [Or maybe, like...Terezi...?]

Did you actually clear it, though? Is there a clear condition?

[ryuji]

Nah, I let it come at me just to see what it'd be like and then ended the training.

Oh man I can't believe you're asking me to be your battle senpai!

I'm so freaking honored.

[What, she didn't.

Ryuji.]

[bu773rfly]

[Oh noooo]

Hey.

You may not have a digital life here for me to interfere with, but I have magic, a knife, and an imagination.

Always think twice.

[ryuji]

[WHY IS THIS COMING BACK TO THE HACKING THREATS?

He just assumes she's already got access to his entire message history, and man, that is shaping up to be some ridiculous and weird shit here.]

But I barely think once as it is...

[bu773rfly]

It's never too late to try something new!

[ryuji]

You can't really teach an old puppy new tricks though

Speaking of new tricks, we doing this or what?

[bu773rfly]

Wait, doing what?

[ryuji]

FIGHTING ROBOT ASS

What else?

[bu773rfly]

With you watching?

[ryuji]

Are you nervous?

[bu773rfly]

Of course not.

[yes]

[ryuji]

So you're definitely nervous. Got it.

Completely understandable. Don't want to be around a veteran fighter when it goes down. Performance anxiety. The sweats. I get you.

[bu773rfly]

[FUCK OFFFFFFF]

How about I man the console and you give me a demonstration to start off with?

[she a l m o s t appended "senpai" to that but what's the over/under on him not responding to the mockery correctly]

[ryuji]

I don't wanna make it worse on you, yo

Because once you see this guy in action you're gonna get a case of the Gell-i c's

[bu773rfly]

[. . .

Is she gonna-

-nahhhhh.]

If you say so. When?

[ryuji]

In a world

Overrun by robots

Stands two hard ass cops

Protecting each other

And the world

Coming to a theater near you

Artificial Intelligence 2: Robopocalypse.

Uh... I dunno maybe tomorrow? I ate a ton of popcorn and I'm feelin' kinda bloated

[bu773rfly]

Sleep it off, Sakamoto. I'll get back in contact.

[ryuji]

Zzzz

My bracer's always open, Erika
