[Enter: cute blonde woman on your feed. She has an vibrant energy about her.]

Helloooo! [She gives the camera a short wave. Her Russian accent shines through in her words clearly.] Some of you may already know me, but for those who don’t: I am Yelena. And given the circumstances of these “missions” [Yes, she did just make air quotes with her fingers as she said that word.] I would like to offer to anyone who wants it either—

[She ticks options off on her fingers as she goes—] A sparring partner, for people who already know how to fight OR—

Lessons for those of you who either [She lifts her hands and teeters them like a see-saw.] don’t know how, could use improvement or need to learn basic self defense.

[Her hands drop back to rest in her lap.] Anyway— I wasn’t sure if something like this has already been started sooo… let me know your thoughts, I guess?!

[Though technically a good age bracket for it, Yelena did not grow up with social media as a part of her everyday so her ending comes a little awkward and abrupt with another quick wave and an even quicker— ] Bye!

Consider me interested. In both the sparring and the learning.

[waytodie]

I wondered if I might see you here. [Yelena has become rather attached to the younger girl since she first met her. She would likely have approached her personally had she not shown up on this post, but she’s pleased to see her requesting it all the same.]

[littlestderolo]

It involves learning. Of course you'd see me here.

[And it involves fighting. And being taught by Yelena. Who is one of the few people here that's she's started to trust. Which is a very big thing. Not that she intends on saying a word about it to anyone. Least of all herself.]

The chance to learn to fight in styles from another world is far too rare to pass up.

[waytodie]

Not everyone likes learning as much as you, you know. [She grins, not surprised by her answer at all.] I agree completely. You could probably teach me a thing or two- what do you think?

[littlestderolo]

Well they should! [It's just teasing, joking, but the fact that she can is... certainly a sign of her coming to find it easy to be comfortable around Yelena.] I can certainly try, at least.

[waytodie]

I agree.

[She's glad that Cassandra has started coming around. Yelena knows what it's like to be distrustful of strangers, suspicious of what may seem like a hand-out, assuming any offers to help or aid are simply ways to use you. But she's stuck it out, let her work it all out on her own that Yelena never outright makes promises, but she does keep her word.]

I look forward to it.
