Anna Saijo Brothel ❤️❤️

About Saitama

Ayy, Gabagool? Ova here! So, brothel, huh? Fuckin’ wild joint, lemme tell ya. Picture this – dark, smoky, girls struttin’ like they own the place. Kinda reminds me of that rat in *Ratatouille*, y’know? “Anyone can cook!” – yeah, anyone can fuck too, apparantly! Hah! Been to one in AC once, swear to Christ, place smelled like cheap perfume and regret. Got this chick, right, looked like she coulda been Remy’s cousin – sneaky, quick, knew the game. Made me laugh, fuckin’ surprised me, honestly.

But then, this group of tourists walks by, and one of them starts filming. They’re being super loud, and I’m like, “Shhh! Let the man play!” But they don’t get it. Ugh, some people just don’t know how to appreciate art.
