Okay so I was at the gym this morning like usual And this real sleazy guy comes in. I dunno if you work out but they all kinda look the same Carrying a whole duffel bag of stuff when they don't even need it, big stupid headphones, kinda shaped like a triangle because they think leg day is for morons Anyway he's got his pick of the place but he decides to set up shop right next to me. Which would be totally fine!! But then he tries flirting. A lot. Even after I told him to knock it off and also almost bent the rowing machine handles in half
[ well that will hardly do at all. men with more muscle than sense bothering, presumably, a young woman(?). saber assumes yang is a woman, anyway—the experience being described would suggest as much. she makes a face at her phone, typing furiously in return. ]
To Hades with politeness! It seems quite clear to me that rat requires a lesson in respect! Ensure he does not forget it!!!
[ that reply is unexpected and also extremely cathartic. saber gets it. thank the brothers. ]
See I really really want to Nearly did But I'd like to give him one last chance to realize I'm serious when I say I will personally kick him into lake if he tries another lame pick up line
[ yeah. yeah!!! it's what yang's been thinking this whole time, but it's nice to hear someone echo her desire to go crazy (aaaaaaa), go stupid (aaaaaaaaa). ]
True Wait he's coming this way again Hold on
[ there's a pause of about 15 minutes. maybe just long enough to make saber wonder if she's been ghosted. when the dots bounce again, yang's tone is much more upbeat even over text. ]
Phew okay Handled! Maybe kinda dislocated his nose Okay scratch that definitely dislocated it

and yeesh, pushy. ...but they have a point. if they're willing to listen, she may as well talk. ]
