yinsukin:
Roman
Roman's eyes widened, that last sentence stinging at his very core. "Are you kidding me? I just met you! All I know is you have a body like a greek goddess and the ability to crush my head between your palms! Its like walking around with someone who is constantly holding a gun and has a bad temper. Oh wait, guns probably barely even hurt you."
The young man realized that he had actually raised his voice at her again. Strange. He said all that, but is yelling at her now. Why is that?
SINIB:
Sakura
Her dangerously red eyes glimmered with wet tears. She crossed her arms underneath her breasts and held herself tightly. She bit her lower lips, accidentally revealing her fangs in the process. "Just because I'm strong doesn't mean I'm not a decent human being." Sakura shook her head. "Nor does me being a mage, nor a vampire, at that. When did I ever give the impression I'm the sort to run around killing people? I grew up the same as you, and worked hard to get as strong as I did today-anybody could have done it, with enough work. In that regard, I wasn't special at all."
Even though she was shorter than him, it was as if she were looking down on him. Her body language, her tone, and even her disposition oozed disappointment and even a hint of sorrow. "I thought we could be friends. I guess you're just as much of a prick as anyone else-judging me by my body instead of for whom I am."
She turned her head back to the trainer and smiled. "Thanks for the help. I'd really appreciate a recommendation for a casual gym for women about as strong as me."
yinsukin:
Roman
Roman's eyes widened and he stepped back when seeing the fangs. "You didn't," he said. "You don't have too. Your strong, i'm not. Not only are you strong, but hundreds of times stronger than me. You could kill me by accident if you aren't careful."
Roman bit his lip. He hated this feeling, this powerlessness. How he wished he could switch places with her. "I didn't. People who are strong have strong friends. People who are weak have weak friends. I'm... I'm not on your level, not yet."
That couldn't be true right? After all Yusho didn't just see him as a worthless weakling. He even... no that was a mentor relationship. Well it didn't matter. If she didn't understand the power she had, it wasn't safe to hang around her anyway.
"Whatever!" he finally said in a huff and walked towards the trainer. "Just sign me up."
The trainer looked at Sakura, then at Roman. "Your welcome and... sure."
SINIB:
Sakura
Sakura's eyes seemed to stare into him. She looked closely at him, and she could tell he didn't really believe what he was saying. Reading people was a skill she was good at by necessity. If you couldn't see past people's bullshit, and didn't pay attention to their subtle cues, one would just get eaten up and used by the mages at the Clock Tower. Especially in the position she had there, as a foreigner, and as an Edelfeldt. So, when he stopped talking to her, she immediately shook her head and spoke up.
"That's bullshit, and you know it."

Roman
"Why are you acting like you know me all of the sudden? So what, its ok if you do it?" he asked, folding his arms across his chest. "You know nothing about me!"
