[ the spar is good — daisy's out of practice, or so she says. bobbi both is and isn't: she's been keeping up appearances; katelin philips goes on morning runs and does yoga in parks when the weather allows, but bobbi's been keeping up with her training in the privacy of her own room, too.
it doesn't compare to this.
(if anyone asks, katelin philips is an army brat, so it stands to reason she might have learned to fight at some point in her life. not like bobbi can, though, never that. it would defeat the purpose of the whole charade.) ]
Not bad at all.
[ but even with this place and their powers, bobbi feels they shouldn't be neglecting this. ] We should make it a regular thing.
[ a soft groan, but it's good-natured, more a tease than an actual complaint. ]
I can't believe I'm signing up for you to kick my ass on the regular.
[ but bobbi is right. no matter what either of their intentions might be, no matter whether daisy plans to stay or go when the mission ends — because the mission will end, in daisy's mind, either way. they will figure this out. it's just a matter of time. — they shouldn't get lazy. who knows when they might have to fight their way out of a room filled with obnoxiously strong una agents again? ]
You're not signing up to have your ass kicked, you're signing up to try to kick mine.
[ if it boils down to the same thing, well. bobbi has more experience than daisy still, but daisy is plenty badass even without her powers. bobbi believes that.
so long as she doesn't get lazy with her training. ]
Dinner after sounds like a great plan to me, actually. [ plus, it'll give them a reason to spend time together on the training days. a reason that doesn't threaten bobbi's cover in any way. ]
[ but it's playful, easy; daisy will sing bobbi's praises from here to the sun and back any day of the week, yet even still, she knows they're a decent match. what shield training they may be missing, they're both still playing along. daisy with illya and occasionally steve, bobbi as katelin the same way she always has. in private, without exposure.
daisy doesn't know how she does it. ]
Are you busy tonight? [ dinner's probably in the works as they speak. it doesn't take much to make an extra plate. ] We can grab a bottle of wine on the way back...
bless

Do I at least get dinner out of this arrangement?
