[Someone please buy a claw arm thingy for Catra's tail.
But, hi. Hello. Ichinose runs into her while she's playing one handed pinball... and starts clapping. With her hands in her coat pockets, sleeves tugged all the way down. These are some very muffled claps.]
[anyway, even a broken arm can't stop her CAT-LIKE REFLEXES, and while she is not amazing at pinball, she is keeping up!! . . . by using the foot of her injured leg as her other hand! look at her stretch. she catte]
[she shouldn't be doing this with a bullet hole in her leg, honestly, god Catra why]
[with a bit of bravado]
What kind of loser lets a little broken bone stop her?
You'd be surprised. Pain tolerance varies wildly from person to person! Not to mention, the loss in balance from having one less limb to rely on... But that's not a problem for you, huh?
[she'd usually try to haggle but she's told this story so many times by now, she's willing to give it out for free]
. . . I don't know what you've heard from Sieghart or Sakyou or Claude, but we were all whisked suddenly away to some place that was definitely not this school. One minute here, the next minute in an airship hangar with some stupid recorded voice telling us we were about to experience some kind of test.
Woooow, that sounds amazing! Just like something out of a heist movie, ahaha! Oh, but— wait. Maybe I shouldn't get so excited. You said it didn't go well?
But obviously he didn't. [SPOILERS HE DID BUT CATRA MAY BE IN DENIAL ABOUT DEATH DURING THIS CYOA] He showed up on the airship after us, though he said he had some kind of amnesia?

tuesday, week two.
But, hi. Hello. Ichinose runs into her while she's playing one handed pinball... and starts clapping. With her hands in her coat pockets, sleeves tugged all the way down. These are some very muffled claps.]
Wow! You're not letting anything stop you, huh?

[in the HORDE being INJURED is a sign of WEAKNESS]
[but she does (gingerly) lower her leg from the pinball machine and limp-turn to face Ichinose, ears perked forward]
Need something?
no subject
Yes, you could say that. You remember our chat the other day, right?
no subject
Of course I do.
Are you here to collect?
no subject
no subject
Sure.
But you might have to win me over with something nice first.

[SHARING IS. . . CARING? THAT SOUNDS STUPID]
[anyway she's just being bratty, so--]
But whatever. You want to know what happened to me, Sakyou, Claude and Sieghart when we were whisked away, right?
no subject
[But Catra looks like she isn't going to haggle, so. She nods.]
That's right. We still don't know what caused it, so I want to learn as much as I can from those who experienced it.

[SAYING THAT SO NONCHALANTLY]
So we dressed up as diplomats and entertainers-- the crew were talking about expecting both of those groups-- and tried to steal an airship.
It didn't go well.

[she doesn't ask]
We got waylaid by a guy in orange who was trying to take us to Las Vegas? Wherever that is?
[they missed out on a super great las vegas vacation]
And while he was talking to us a group of clowns entered the hangar. They were the real entertainers.
They totally blew our cover.
no subject
[Kind of to herself, kind of to Catra. She's shook.]
Is that when you were attacked?
no subject
Yeah. The clown ran for one of my weapons and started shooting at us. I got hit in the leg, but Sakyou--
[. . .]
Only Sieghard, Claude and I made it to the airship.
no subject
... Sagihara-san made it back to us. You don't mean to say he died, do you?
no subject
[big emphasis on "thought."]
But obviously he didn't. [SPOILERS HE DID BUT CATRA MAY BE IN DENIAL ABOUT DEATH DURING THIS CYOA] He showed up on the airship after us, though he said he had some kind of amnesia?
no subject
... Hm, so he had a gap in his memory around the time he died. Could it be that death doesn't stick when it happens in that other world?
no subject
That's now how dying works.
[dying is PERMANENT, tyvm]

Why wouldn't they? Some things you can't change-- not with magic, or tech, or anything else.
