Moar funnies while I work on a really frickin long chapter-
—
(When Sabre's still adjusting to everything and is anxiety filled)
M: (walking in) Hi!
Sabre: (Sitting in the couch) Hi.
(When Sabre is 100% comfortable with everything and he and M have accepted each other as siblings in every way except legally for plot reasons)
M: (Walking into the room in a hilariously over the top way) GRRREETINGS, IMBECILE.
Sabre: (Sitting on the couch and flipping him off) Hello to you too, cretin.

(Sabre soon ends up being the one usually supervising the group of friends Ruby is in)
Sabre: (sitting on the sidewalk helping a kid with a chalk drawing) And then you can use your hands to blend the colors-
Ruby's Friend: (tugging on Sabre's sleeve) Hey, Mister Sabre?
Sabre: Hm?
Ruby's Friend: I thought I should warn you, Ruby's dad taught him a new fighting thing.
Sabre: Why do you need to warn-
(Ruby suddenly appears, having jumped from a nearby tree and right on Sabre's back)
Ruby: SNEAK ATTACK!
Sabre: AA-
(Sabre proceeds to get folded like a flip phone)
Ruby: Hi Sabre! Did I scare ya?
Sabre: I think you might've made something pop, bud...
Ruby's Friend: Seriously Ruby, you find the one person in the whole kingdom that can handle roughhousing, and you literally jump on him.

(The Professor being baffled by humans)
Prof. Red: What do you mean your species can just- give someone a new organ?!
Sabre: Yeah, it's called an organ transplant. People get an organ from someone that died to replace one of theirs that's too damaged by something to heal.
Prof. Red: That is just-
Sabre: Sometimes the organ has this thing I think is called cellular memory, and the new organ still does regular behaviors the donor did.
Prof. Red: ???
(More of this lol)
Prof. Red: So... your people can be burnt by sunlight??
Sabre: Yeah, if we stand in it too long. You guys don't?
Prof. Red: If we did, I wouldn't have asked you about it, now would I?
(Imma start using two parenthesis to show that these are a chain of incorrect quotes)
Sabre: (explaining reactions to injury) -So yeah, that sucks. Usually if something hurts us, our adrenaline would-
Prof. Red: What is this 'adrenaline' you speak of?
Sabre: A chemical that's basically a drug that makes it so we don't feel stuff and gives us an extra boost of energy. It's a survival mechanism.
Prof. Red: ...You have a survival mechanism. That makes you physically able to ignore pain.
Sabre: Yeah, pretty much.
Prof. Red: What on earth would make your people need a mechanism like that-?
Sabre: I dunno. There's not much to trigger it in an actual dangerous situation, but there's people that do dangerous things just to trigger it on purpose.
Prof. Red: I'm sorry people WHAT-
()
Sabre: ...And yeah that's why the term 'atomic veteran' exists.
Prof. Red: ...Sabre what the f-
()
(They got distracted and started talking about myths)
Prof. Red: Do your people have any tales of caution? I'm curious since you seem to be so drawn to danger.
Sabre: I'm just gonna ignore that second part, and yeah. Wanna hear 'em?
(A few cryptid/horror stories later)
Sabre: And some people still say they saw her ghost in the river, or hear her cries for her children to return. It's a pretty cool story.
Prof. Red: (visibly shaken)
Sabre: ...Wanna hear the one about the Cave Dweller?
Prof. Red: Just from the name, no-
(Okay enough of these lol)

(Prof. Red walking through one of the castle halls, when he comes across my listening in on something from the hallway.)
Prof. Red: Amaris, what're y-
M: (Makes a 'shh' motion and points into the room, smiling.)
(Professor Red looks, and sees Sabre and Carmine geeking out about folklore.)
(In case you haven't noticed, TGR!Sabre is a mythology nerd for backstory reasons)
—
(M trying to sneak back into the castle late at night, because he accidentally stayed out too late. He's trying to find an unlocked door when Sabre suddenly opens a window next to him.)
Sabre: (whispering) Lose track of time, buddy?
M: (climbing in through the window, pointing at Sabre) Shut.

Das it for now :b
