"One month... and you still haven't banged him. So who's the one holding back?" Yuuki chuckled slightly to Rachael, who had grown out of the blushing adorableness by now, save for the really good teases she sometimes received from both Yuuki and Zen himself.
"You have a harem to keep up with, I've just got you and him, so forgive him for thinking with the upper head." Rachael countered with a smirk. They were just preparing for a livestream during their day off from both work and classes, the ever fateful Monday. "Besides, we already said we wouldn't rush things. If we want to fuck, we'll fuck."
Of course as she said that, the broadcast started, which caught her last sentence completely out of context, which wasn't an uncommon occurrence at the start of their streams. So, Yuuki greeted the buzzing chat. "Monday motherfuckers! We're gonna do a bit of everything today, bit of gaming to start, then some gossip we were just sharing, and then some discussions for our Cultures class. Might turn it over to a chatstream in between them all, or during breaks. So, let's start with choosing what game we'll play first and get the ball rollin'!"
Almost immediately the chat was flooded with requests for a number of games, since they always had a link to their ever expanding collection of games in the Web's main page.
"Alright, Widow's speak up for roll call! Who's here?" Rachael asked, idly scrolling through her Steam library to decide on a game with the chat.
"Sherry here! I've got a two hour class at noon, and another one hour at three, so I'll be here for the start, and back by four thirty. Lucky fucks getting a whole day off."
"Mom here, I'll be in and out all morning, but I'll be good all afternoon. You two plan to watch this week's episode with the rest of us?"
"Damn right!" Yuuki flashed a metal horns gesture at her facecam for her mother. "Dad at work?"
"All day." Rize replied. "And Alice too."
"Sere?" Yuuki knew that if she wasn't working on a client or a large two-handed project, her aunt was gonna be watching the broadcast.
"I'll keep an ear on the stream, got clients all day, honey. If there's any hotties, I'll definitely share with you~!"
"Any other Widows? Koko? Mishka? Stella? Motoko?" Yuuki asked, but got no further replies from her family and friends. "Val and Sheva are at school, and I know Jake's got two classes this morning. He might be in later. Anyway, time for us to make up our minds and pick a damn game!"
"Dual stream of Sword of the Stars: The Pit? We still haven't beaten the fuckin' thing." Rachael asked, pointing at the rogue-like that was just as old as Payday 2, but only a dozen players had successfully beaten the dungeon crawler on the highest difficulty in the over 20 years since it had been released.
"Marine!" Yuuki called out excitedly, since the character was easy to use. They both fired up the game, set the broadcast to a split view - to show their respective games simultaneously - and started a new attempt; Yuuki as the Marine, Rachael as the Engineer.
"That fucking game..." Yuuki growled in frustration after both of them failed - several times - to reach the end floor with a multitude of the characters. "So, how about something that doesn't hate us?"
"Feeling up for some sneks?" Rachael knew the cheeky mispronunciation of 'sneaks' with a short E, rather than a long one, was easily misinterpreted as...
"Wait, what?" Yuuki turned her head to her twin, blinking her main eyes for a moment.
"Payday! Do you wanna do the sneaky business?!" Rachael laughed, as was the chat. "Or did I throw you off too much with that question?"
"I mean, sex is always welcome. But I wanna do some more One Down heists, not in the mood for stealth." Yuuki grinned back. "Wait, didn't we download that one mod... uh... Silent Assassin! Fuck it, let's try it out!"
"The Diamond!" Instantly the chat was lit up with the one heist that the sisters absolutely loved to play in stealth.
"Damn right!" They both laughed as they booted up the game and got things set up in record time. "So the mod makes guards drop dead without setting off their pagers as long as we kill them in one shot. So I'm gonna use a Heavy Crossbow and the Broomstick. You?"
"English Longbow and the Gruber Kurz. Still love the Chromed Sparrow skin for it!" Rachael replied. "So, can we still do pagers if we don't one shot them?"
"Same as vanilla, if that's the case. Gonna do the powerful guns, just in case." Yuuki nodded. "So, time for that gossip I mentioned. Ray, you or me?" Yuuki turned to Rachael with a cheeky smirk, setting up the multiplayer lobby for her twin to join her in their sneaky business.
"Yuuki was making fun of me for not having sex with my new boyfriend, Zen. Before she said that, she came up with her own ship name for us. We're sharing it here on our livestream instead of slipping it into an episode of Darkwood."
"So what's the ship name?" Chat didn't like the suspense of her lead-up statement, and were clearly getting excited.
"'Raisins'." Yuuki chuckled. "It uses my little nickname for her, with her nickname for him. Ray and Zen. Raisin."
Chat seemed to think it was cute, and some of them made jokes that raisins weren't as sweet as their adorable pairing was. Rachael, however, stuck out her tongue at Yuuki, knowing that the name was clearly accepted and now forever beyond her control.
"Alright ladies, in certain situations you may be forced to defend yourself, maybe at a party, or a bar, even walking to or from class in the evenings. We're here today to provide you with some simple, emergency self-defense techniques in case you are assaulted." The demonstrator and her male assistant stood in the middle of the auditorium with an impact matt laid out beneath their feet.
"I get that this is mandatory and all, but not everyone here is untrained in self-defense!" A girl several seats away from Yuuki and Rachael suddenly stood up, and the way she just so conveniently rose out of her seat like that hinted that she was acting on a script as part of the presentation.
"And not everyone is immune to the risk of sexual harassment and assault, even males!" The woman onstage held up one hand, the other on her hip. "So, does anyone here have self defense or martial arts training? Raise a hand, ladies."
About a tenth of the students held up a hand. The twins nodded their heads, their arms crossed casually. And by sheer coincidence, the demonstrator pointed at them.
"You two ladies, the twins with the hair glitter, could you come up to the stage with me?" She beckoned for them to join her, and they shared a glance before joining the man and woman on the stage, earning polite, but brief applause as motivation from the other students.
"Now, ladies, do you have any training? I didn't see your hands very well."
"Yes we do, our dad taught us himself." Rachael nodded, her hands on her hips. "Several different techniques, in fact. Much more advanced than these anti-rape maneuvers you'd be teaching us."
"Might we ask for a presentation? As a show for the other girls?" The male asked, and the twins both knew this was part of their script.
"Dad, Mishka or classic?" Yuuki asked Rachael in Russian, smirking slightly.
"Classic." Rachael nodded as she replied in kind before turning to the instructor. "Coin toss to choose who does the fun part." She produced a quarter from her pocket, tinging it up and letting it land on the matt at her feet before quickly covering it with her foot. "She's heads. I'm tails."
With a nod, she slid her foot back, revealing the heads side up. "Heh. Enjoy~!" Rachael slid the coin away with the same foot as Yuuki grinned, her Kakugan forming as she opened her upper eyes and let her Kakuja burst out of the gap in the gap between her corset and belt.
All of the girls screamed, and the instructors took an instinctive step backwards. Of course Yuuki laughed.
"Scare your attacker enough and he won't be attacking you at all. We're both T-Ghouls, the Darkwood twins. So ladies, think ahead before you put yourself in a risky position. Stick with a good friend, a sister, girlfriend, anyone you can trust. Don't wear high heels unnecessarily, it makes you earlier to knock over. Keep track of your drink at a bar or a party, if you need to walk away from it, ditch it or buy a new one. Do not assume it's still YOUR drink. Bring it with you if you can. We work at a bar, we know how this shit happens! And above all else, trust your damn instincts. If you feel threatened or that something's just not right, forget about that cute boy... or girl... just leave the situation. If you see it happen to another girl, fucking save her ass! Don't just look the other way all like 'at least it's not me!'"
"So, if you still end up getting attacked, you'll remember that one time that pair of twin goth girls turned into giant spiders and taught you how to play it safe. Unleash your inner spider, ladies, and if anyone dares to lay a hand on you, defend yourself and make them regret it!" Rachael joined into the fiery speech as she also formed her Kakuja and fist-bumped her sister.
Within 12 hours, a cellphone video of their hijacked presentation went viral, and not a single girl in that crowd ever forgot that day for the rest of their lives, especially when a few of them were indeed nearly sexually assaulted at some point later in their lives.
