>>20146388Carrie Reynolds laughs uncomfortably when Maaike addresses her intentions.
>"Our intentions aren't pure? I..... well, I'm really not sure WHAT you could mean! Our intentions are to hone our skills here in the WWA Dojo, become the greatest tag team in the WWA, and when the time is right, we're gonna become the WWA World Tag Team Champions. But we're not fooling ourselves: we know there's a LOT of hard work between us and that goal! Right, Annie?"Carrie looks over, but Annie Mishra is not training, or paying attention: she's taking a break from her drills to talk to the receptionist at the Dojo desk about..... something:
".....and see, if you can actually get one of 'em OUTTA the tree, then they crawl along on all four legs and it's really funny-lookin', like THIS!"
Annie crouches down and starts awkwardly crawling across the floor on on her hands and feet, swinging her limbs wide with each "step". The Dojo receptionist blinks. "What the hell are you talking about?" she asks in a deadpan monotone.
Carrie claps her hands.
>"ANNIE!"Annie perks up.
>"Come on, get back to work! It feels like it's been a couple days since you've even taken any bumps!" Annie gets back up and dashes over to the training area.
"Sorry Carrie! I won't let'cha down, don't worry!"
With a cringe and a whimper, Annie Mishra braces herself and throws herself back with another bump. Carrie looks back at Maaike and laughs uncomfortably again.
>"See? Future WWA World Tag Team Champions, that's us: the Overnight Sensations!">"Anyway, I should get back to training too. Hit me up if you ever wanna spar sometime, I'm actually pretty good: I trained with Lorrie Nabisco down in Florida."Carrie's eyes rove over Maaike's massive frame, and she feels an instant twinge of regret; Maaike could probably fold her up like a piece of paper without even really making an effort.
>"But hey, you know, if you're busy, I understand completely. No pressure!"
