Decades Spent In Strife Led To Nothing

Who: Tiny Tina and Yukari (closed)
What: Yukari calls Tiny Tina out for her mannerisms and it results in a fight, ultimately with Yukari losing his right eye.
Where: Nearby Tiny Tina's quarters.
When: February 12th
Warnings: Gore, violence, offensive prodding, behaviours, and language.

Yukari hesitates as he comes to knock on Tina's door. He wants to discuss the potential for further weaponry, but... Tina's mannerisms are far below ideal. Admittedly, she's just a child, but he's never seen any child behave like that where he's from. Even if she's a skilled weaponry expert, where such behaviours can be expected in that line of work, Tina's behaviours were still very... crude compared to even them.

Seriously, just where does one even learn to behave in such a manner? Do her parents encourage this sort of thing? Maybe they do, considering they seem to encourage her destructive weaponry skills as well.

At the very least, he was impressed with the weapon he had her make for Curufin. For a child, or even an adult, that is some seriouslly advanced skill. He certainly can't deny that. He debates with himself mentally on if he's up for this before knocking on the door. Just maybe he can teach her some manners before this is all over; do himself, and Hadriel, a favour.

"Tina-chan, I have some questions regarding your weaponry skills. Do you have a moment?"

Tina had been napping on and off, she didn't really have a bed time so to speak and the projects she'd been working on for food had really tuckered her out. So there she was, sprawled out across her workstation, dangerously close and even on top of some of her tools. Perhaps that's where they mysterious bruises and cuts came from?

It took her a moment to noticed Yukari was there, she's been trying to update her security system seeing as some people would try to enter her workshop thinking it was a store, guess that's what she gets for setting up home in an abandoned store instead of an apartment like most people had?

" Uwah~!?" Yawning as she rolled off of the counter top she'd been napping on, landing in a heap on the floor. Paper rubbish and metal shaving comforted her fall. She'd been up all night working on a new creation and had accidentally made something amazing~ But she'd keep that a secret for now!

Rubbing her eyes, smearing oil and crumbs into her face and hair as she spotted Yukari at the door. "Oh hi~ c'mon in! What can I do ya for gurl?"

Yukari hesitates to step in for a moment. He had rather hoped she would come to the door. He takes a mental breath and sets foot into her abode - and finds himself instantly regretting it. He's familiar with Tina being a particularly messy individual. But seeing those crumbs and oil stains on her person, he just... Okay, no. This is unacceptable behaviour for a young lady (or anyone, really).

He clears his throat uncomfortably, taking particular care not to touch anything.

"Tina-chan, perhaps you should go take a shower. I wouldn't mind waiting or coming back another time while you do so. you have some...." It takes everything he has to not grimace in disgust as he looks her over again. "Food on your face. Why don't you go freshen up?"

He's trying to be polite. Really. As much as he can possibly tolerate. He glances around the workshop, too. Maybe while she's in the shower, he'll tidy up for her as well.

To be fair and in Tina's defense, her 'evil' double was the one who has made all this mess~ Yes, she was going to use that was an excuse for anything and everything she didn't want to deal with, starting now! She smiled despite how uncomfortable he looked at being in her workshop. Rubbing at her cheek, feeling the oil before picking a few crumbs off her face and holding them out to Yukari. "Yoo wanna share? I was jus' gonna save 'em for later anyway!" She was being deadly serious... No point in throwing good food away just because it was covered in oil and stuck to your face now was there?

Dusting her hand off before wiping them on the side of her dress, leaving stains and marks in their wake. "Nah, it's all gud, I'm cool." There was no way she was taking a shower and no way in hell she was going to let someone tidy up her work space! They might accidently blow the place up... Not like Tina had ever done that before. "So what did yoo want? or did yoo come to play B&B?"

Yukari's face completely drains of colour as she offers. He's not sure if he can tolerate this. And she's being completely serious about it. What child lives like this? Honestly, I... He supposes it's better to blame her parents. Just to keep his sanity in this moment.

"I had..." his voice trails as his thoughts scream at him to escape this madhouse while he can, while simultaneously arguing that this place, and that girl, desperately need to be cleaned up. He shakes his head a moment to get back on track, which is taking every last ounce of effort he has. "I had admired the handiwork of your last weapon. I wanted to discuss what other types you might be able to make for future interactions."

Yukari's cheeks might tint a bit when she says B&B, unaware of what her version of it truly is. Just what is she implying by that? His first thoughts might be she's offering him a place to stay and such, in exchange for payment. Which... yea, that's still a no. Forever a no. And then his second thought is that she might be offering something more... intimate. Yea, extra no. He's just... he'll choose to ignore that, as it's purely speculation right now. Still...

"I do implore you to go take a shower. It looks like you haven't had a decent bath in... a few days." Or your entire life. His tone is more firm, adamant, about his offer for her to go shower. Please, for the love of everything, go shower!

Tina's parents were actually really nice people! They'd raised Tina to eat well, keep clean and tidy and respect her others, Tina loved her parents dearly and was such a good girl. Something clearly had happened for her to have ended up the way she was now...

"OH! It's cool shawty! Yoo jus' came here to scope out the guds huh? I'm down with that! This way if yoo please~" Taking a bow and waving her hand about to gesture which way she wanted Yukari to go. There were some sense and order to her chaotic workshop, like the stool for sitting on and the stool for stacking glass bottles on, even Yukari could see that right!?

It was true, Tina hadn't had a bath since she'd bee living at home with her parents... Years ago. Sure, she'd got drenched now and then in rain or falling in water and on the odd occasion she'd actually washed her face after getting highly corrosive fluid on it. But no, she wasn't going to have a shower. "Don't go one here... why would there be a shower in a workshop silly~" Smiling and laughing a little bit, as if Yukari was simple, bless him~

" Sooo~ What kinda weapons are yoo into? I gotz a few here from home, that I made all by myself~ Highly sort after! Yoo got the BoomPuppy and the Teapot!!" Both very real guns and both just as deadly as the other. One fired grenades that exploded three times as they bounced before finally blowing up and the other? The other fired a highly toxic, highly corrosive fluid from a spout.

Yukari pinches the bridge of his nose after being told she doesn't have a shower. Thoughts of taking a basin filled of soapy water to her house and scrubbing her like the filthiest of mutts to get her clean cross his mind. This is just... unacceptable.

"Alright, so we'll get you a shower. I know someone who has a skilled hand. I'm certain we can get one installed for you." He glances around the room again as he walks. "And maybe an organization system."

He should bite his tongue, really. But he asks his next question anyway.

"...When was the last time you had a bath, Tina-chan...?"

He's trying to absorb the information on the weapons. Truly. But... seriously, he has something more important to attend to, obviously - getting Tina to clean up.

"D'aw boo, yoo'd get me a shower? That's reel nice! I could totes wash my parts in it!" Yup, that's right, she was more excited about getting a means of cleaning her tools and parts than actually using it for her own hygienic reasons. Tina didn't think she smelt and no one had told her she did, so why did she need to get all cleaned up for? Yukari sure was strange.

As he asked his questions, Tina busied herself scrambling through piles and boxes of parts, tossing them behind and around her like a dog digging in the sand. She was looking for inspiration, seeing as Yukari didn't seem to have an idea in mind for what kind of weapon he wanted.

"Hm? A bath?" Tilting her head aside. "The big tubba dub dub? Nah boo, I ain't seen one of those in a loooong while!" She was confused why he kept asking her about cleaning. Frowning a little, crossing her arms and turning to face him. "What's with yoo anyway, shawty? Yoo got some kinda OCD about cleanin?"

Nope. That's it. The threshold of unacceptable has been crossed to intolerable. He moves to grab her wrist and start pulling her out the door. He doesn't care about the mess it'll leave in his bathroom, he's giving this thing a good old-fashioned wash.

"You can't live dirty like this. It's not appropriate for a young lady to behave this way. Seriously, do your parents really support this? Or did they abandon you for being this much of a mess?"

Yukari's not particularly thinking about his words as he speaks, it's all rather automatic in his mind and he doesn't think that what he's saying should be taken as more than just a passing insult, much less hit close to home for the poor girl.

"Hey! Lemme go bro! Not cool!" Yanking back as her wrist was tugged at. She was not used to this kind of treatment. None of the Vault Hunters would ever dare to manhandle her like this, she was too precious to them!

Her frown grew as she grew uncomfortable with his comments on top of the grabbing and yanking. "Okay look bitch! Yoo wanna get a weapon made, this is NOT the way to do it! Get off'a me before I bite your freakin' fingers off!" Snarling, acting like a complete little monster now. Pulling at his hand and showing her teeth ( what teeth she had left anyways.)

Digging her heels in the ground, using her other hand to reach out behind her, grabbing a handful of gunpowder dust she'd been grinding down. It was the comment about her parents that upset her, but rather than telling him that, she just got more and more furious. Tina wasn't good at dealing with grief, she'd rather blow something or someone up instead.

"Forget the weapons for the moment! You need a bath! How can you tolerate living like this? It's less fit for swine!" His grip isn't letting up, he's fully intent on getting this girl to meet hot water and a good scrubbing.

Damn if she isn't putting up one Hell of a fight though. Yukari turns to face her and moves to hoist her over his shoulder. He's obviously not afraid of the snarling monster. "You'll thank me for this later."

Y'know: warm water, soap, the layers of dead skin removed.</i. "You'll feel alot better afterwards, trust me. Stop putting up such a fight! Did your parents fail to spank you when you act up like this?"
