[The image of one Yang Xiao Long comes up on screen, but for those of her that know her, there's something obviously off about her. What, exactly? The chunk of golden-colored hair that's currently being held in her fist instead of sitting on her head, is what. What's more, Yang looks absolutely pissed.]

Excuse me... [She seethes through gritted teeth] But does anyone know who has a bug familiar with scissors for hands? I'd like to have words with them.

[She takes a deep breath, and then tries to speak more calmly.]

Also, is there anyone out there that can... [she motions to her hair situation] ...help me even this out? I'm new and not sure if there are any hairstylists in this city I can trust just yet.

[Note that there is now a fiery crater in the middle of a street somewhere.]

[For a moment, Ken didn't say anything. At he wondered what a certain someone would say in this situation, he wondered something to himself.]

It really does sound like it was a lot for you and your friends. It makes me wonder just how dangerous your world is.

[Was he doing it right??]

[justwatchmeburn]

I won't lie. There's a lot of danger where we come from. But... it's the only world we have. That's why I wanted to be someone who protected the people living in it.

[For a moment, Ken didn't say anything. As he looked at the screen, he couldn't help but chuckle.]

You know, that sure sounds a lot like someone from an action move would say. I guess you can say you're the protagonist of your own story if you're this determined!

[justwatchmeburn]

[Oh, Ken. You're gonna make Yang grin from ear to ear.]

Oh hey, thanks. But I dunno about being the protagonist. The real hero is my sister, Ruby! She's our team's leader.

[whatsamada]

Oh really? Even if she is the leader, that doesn't mean you can't be the hero either! I think you have an equal say too!

[Pause]

Because that's something my leader would say too!

[justwatchmeburn]

... Heh, I guess you're right. But it's more important to do what's right in the moment than worry about being a hero, I think.

[whatsamada]

Which also sounds a lot like what a superhero would say in a movie too!

[With that, he gave a chuckle.] I'm not going to lie, you sound pretty cool right now.

[justwatchmeburn]

Heh, thanks. Wasn't really trying, but hey, I'll take the compliment.
