Welcome to the Program

[airlockedmods]

Good Morning, Champions. In the interest of maintaining healthy sleep patterns, a day/night cycle is in effect. Your presence is expected in the cafeteria in exactly one hour.

[The voice comes through not a large speaker, but through the device that's attached to each Champion's arm. Further investigation of the features of the device will reveal a list of profiles, a mini-map, and a list of rules. The hallways are shiny white and silver, with running lights along the floor and lights on the ceiling, and at the junction of the hallways is a sign with a knife and fork icon and an arrow pointing down the hall.

Welcome to the Excellence Program, Champions. Time to get to know your teammates.]

[ yuri's investigating the cafeteria, making note of whatever's available. well....at least they've provided food, whoever their captors are. he looks over at the machine, and waits a few seconds for this girl to get out of his way. but she's just....staring. how annoying.

so he's going to shove his way past her, over to the mini fridge, without a word.

RUDE. ]

[newcycle]

Ah-- hey!

[he's lucky he's already past, or she'd shove back. Instead, she folds her arms over her chest, and glowers at him]

You know, an 'excuse me' would have been nice. [Punk.]

[quadjumps]

You were blocking the way.

[ how bothersome, he thinks, not even bothering to spare her a glance and opting to dig inside of the fridge instead. ]

You were staring at that thing for way too fucking long.

[newcycle]

And?

[he still could have said something, and she's folding her arms over her chest. Don't make her get sassy.]

[quadjumps]

And what? You're the one who asked a question.

[ korra is gonna have to get sassy. i am so sorry. ]

[newcycle]

[INTERNALLY SCREAMING


GUESS SHE'S GONNA TOWER OVER HIM, AND LOOK AS INTIMIDATING AS SHE CAN. which is pretty goddamn intimidating when she wants to]

Listen here, punk. You wanna get past me or anyone else? Then say something. Don't just shove people out of the way. Or else you might get someone who shoves back.

[quadjumps]

[ like. okay. not gonna lie, that look is pretty intimidating. which is....unusual for yuri. usually he's the one trying to pull this look off on other people (it really only worked that one time on yuuri tbh) so it kind of stuns him for a bit when she does it? ]

Excuse me for interrupting your stupid staredown with an inanimate object. There, happy?

[newcycle]

Better.

And I better not catch you shoving people again just to get what you want. Got it?

[quadjumps]

It wasn't even that hard. All I did was walk past you and bump into you, holy shit.

[newcycle]

Doesn't matter!

I mean it. I catch you shoving people one more time, it's not gonna be pretty.

And if someone so much as even tells me you did...

[quadjumps]

Yeah? Then what? You're gonna beat the shit out of me? Rule number seven or whatever?

[newcycle]

[she knows he's saying that to get under her skin, and yet]

Rule number 7 has nothing to do with this.

[quadjumps]

Then you'd better watch what you say. Someone might, oh, you know, bite back.

[ shit, son. ]

[newcycle]

[was.

was that supposed to be a threat.]

Are you trying to intimidate me? Because, have I got news for you: that didn't work. At all.

[quadjumps]

It was a warning. Go around threatening people like that and someone's actually gonna fight back. Maybe with the intent to act on Rule Seven, huh?

[newcycle]

If it's a warning, it's one you [a point at him] should probably follow. How does making people mad by shoving them really help, huh?

[quadjumps]

At least I'm not going around threatening people over nothing.

[newcycle]

[really, yuri. really.

Korra gives him the most unimpressed look.]

[quadjumps]

...What?

[newcycle]

It's not nothing.

I told you exactly why I was doing it, don't be such a jerk.

[quadjumps]

It is nothing. It could've been worse; what if I kicked you or shoved you so hard you hit your nose on the machine?

[newcycle]

Or you could have not shoved me in the first place!

[where is mako or asami to calm her down]

[quadjumps]

I already told you excuse me!

[ THAT..... yeah ]

What the hell's so interesting about a coffee machine that made you stare at it for ten years, hah?!

[newcycle]

[korra.

korra.


calm down korra.

BREATHE, AND THEN GRIT YOUR TEETH.]

Because I've never seen one before.

[quadjumps]

...How could you not have seen one before. Never been to a Starbucks?

[ at least he's

also calming down a little...... ]
