[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!

[ Barbara stares at it for a few minutes. She closes down a handful of windows before opening up the network live on her device. She is careful about how she portions just what she's doing and on whose system at which time. There are things Aurora isn't allowed to have, and she not trusting anything on this one until she can fully hack it finally. ]

What are thinking of teaching?

[waytodie]

Oh, I suppose it would depend on things like their current skill level and what they want to learn. [She nods a bit.] but I know several different styles like Krav Maga, some Judo, a little Kali, or just the really basic stuff, you know? How to throw a punch a punch without hurting yourself, ways to get out of holds from an attacker.

Color me interested. Whether I just watch or have some people to spar with— [ Or she gets right in on helping these kids. ] —I'm not sure yet. But I'm interested, and I think I could bring a few friends who've taught self-defense classes before and might appreciate some partners for practice and helping others, too.

[ If it is as legit as it sounds, she bets she could drag Steph and Cass into it. Maybe Dick, too, since he ran that cross-fit place in the past. ]

[waytodie]

Perfect. I will get you the details when I figure out the rest. [She grins at the idea of more people getting involved. It's so nice to have people interested in a thing she wants to do!] Oh, absolutely. If you want to invite people or direct them here, feel free. The more the merrier, I suppose you could say.

[her_own_rules]

I look forward to hearing more about it.

[ Also, marking it down as another small tally she's been keeping about Yelena. For reasons. Even if Yelena has no clue she's the same girl from the maze. Or that someone who is neither of them might reach out to her soon. ]
