EXT. OUTSKIRTS OF CENTRAL CITY – NIGHT – THE RIDGE ABOVE
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjoepWunpbV
[The breeze picks up as the three weirdos cool down from their sprint. Jason’s lying on a chunk of broken concrete like it’s a beach chair, SD-A is upside-down hanging from a metal beam by his legs, and K is pacing back and forth like an angry crow looking for a fight.]

JASON (half-lidded)
“Alright, now that cardio has been successfully murdered, what’s next? Combat ballet? Interpretive powercore dance?”
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3B06kRdxyq
SD-K (crossing arms)
“…We haven’t stretched our wings in a while.”
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSaPfmODWVU
JASON (cracks open one eye)
“Wings? Like the ‘you have actual wings and haven’t mentioned it in five days’ wings?”
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hZbNofwOr
SD-A (still upside-down)
“Retractable alloy flight stabilizers, technically. But yes—wings!”
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLWp3KEl4P
[With a soft metallic fwump, both SD-A and SD-K extend their wings. Smooth, deadly, folded metal panels click open into sleek gliders, catching the faint city light. Jason just sits up slowly, eyes wide, slowly applauding like he's in disbelief.]

JASON
“…You know, for robots built to annihilate everything, you guys really do have flair. I feel underdressed.”
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11Iolxtqz8
SD-K (flattens the wings, testing balance)
“Flying burns fuel. Risky in cities. But here...”
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOqiyjCuHk
SD-A (spins and strikes a pose)
“It’s like a wind-themed music video waiting to happen.”
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKPn1KWzPU
JASON (grinning)
“Please, by all means, show off. I’ll cheer dramatically.”

[With minimal effort, A launches himself into the air—wings wide, form twisting like a dancer mid-flight. K follows with a harder, faster thrust upward, carving a sharper path through the night. Jason watches, momentarily silent, the city lights flickering far below their soaring figures.]

JASON (muttering to himself)
“…Yeah, totally normal evening. Nothing weird about watching two flying murder machines do aerial yoga.”
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hgXlafF9q
[A loops, laughing like a child. K spins to avoid a piece of scaffolding, flips upside-down, and yells down to Jason:]
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNilRAJQkK
SD-K
“If we crash, you’re carrying the bodies home!”
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8iYW1qNldQ
JASON
“If you crash, I’m selling the scrap to Crank!”

137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQtgkg3tAX
[The duo lands nearby, wings folding neatly back like disappearing blades. A’s boots skid on the dusty ground, and he throws his arms out.]
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwwcOn4Zrn
SD-A
“That! Was! Amazing!”
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbh9X2SIOb
SD-K (adjusting his shoulders)
“Not terrible.”
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3XpEI8ccG1
JASON (mock offended)
“No ride for me? What am I, a third wheel without altitude?”
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡta08cbGGRl
SD-A (offering a hand)
“You wanna try? I’ve never carried someone before, but I watched a lot of heroic flight scenes in those old human movies!”
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx80IQv8KSx
JASON (eyeing A’s narrow frame)
“…I’d rather not plummet to my death because you think this is a romcom.”
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCmxq6HRNGx
[K just grins silently in the background, probably praying Jason says yes so he can watch the resulting chaos.]

[The rest of the evening is filled with more wing practice, SD-A drawing shapes in the air with LED trails, Jason sketching something in the dirt, and K grumbling about “aerial showboating” while secretly testing wing drift angles behind a boulder.]
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl746igGS72
JASON (chuckling as he watches them)*
“…Y’know, for two walking death flags, you’re kinda alright.”
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Uid705cli
SD-A
“Group hug?”
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrSB73Jsy7
SD-K
“I will stab the hug.”
137Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfBNRr7ORm
[Cue long-distance side-hug. Jason gets pulled into it anyway.]
