War Games

[scrubscrub]

[Koala's just watching from the sidelines, really. Said mister is familiar enough that she recognizes the man from their fleet — though she really isn't sure... which one he is... No matter! She stands at the side, people cheering eagerly around her; she's short and has to stand on her tippy-toes just to keep afloat, bless her heart--

.............. Did someone say dry cleaning?

She cups her hands and hollers loudly:]

Don't worry, sir, I'm very good at dry-cleaning!

[DID I MOTIVATE YOU]

War Games

[universal_charm]

<sub>[ No, no it did not. He's not sure where it came from, but he didn't much focus on it - he had a big burly man to focus on instead. With a pool noodle.

That hurt like a bitch when he got smacked with it. In the face. Damn that was going to bruise.

He took a step to try and keep his balance, but he overestimated the width of the sparring space, and his foot slipped. With nothing to give him purchase, he followed his foot down into the mud, much to the amusement of the crowd. He spluttered and wiped at his face, spitting mud as the big man drank up the laughter and adulation of the crowd. ]</sub>

Just remember, I tried being nice...

[scrubscrub]

[Oh, yikes. She winces around a crowd of hooting and hollering.

She's quick to offer him a towel, though, from the sidelines. Nobody said anything about it being illegal to have a coach for your corner, right? Right. Here, dude. It's better than having mud all over your face.]

Are you okay?!

[universal_charm]

_{[ The towel waving in his face is more a distraction than anything and he has to duck quickly to avoid being thrown into the mud again. His opponent doesn't believe in letting his victims recover between dunkings, it seems. ]}

I'll be fine!

_{[ He's not really sure whom he's talking to, but his attention shifts fully to the bigger man, lunging in to go on the offensive. ]}

[scrubscrub]

[WELL IF YOU'RE SURE...!

She knows fighting is wrong and bad, but if this is a war game...

She should be helping the person on her side, right?]

Hit 'em on his other shoulder! The -- left shoulder! He popped it bad earlier!

[It pays to be a little fly on the wall during earlier rounds, you know.]

[universal_charm]

<sub>[ He wanted to say she was being helpful, but really he didn't have the brain power to devote to listening to her or carving out her voice from the crowd. He was having trouble enough keeping up with the man in front of him, though he did eventually get him to go down once and then twice into the mud.

His chest heaved, sweat dripping and carving rivulets through the dried mud. Just one more - one more and he won.

Back step, quick step, strike, pull, strike, and - kick him right in the ass and send him tumbling. There, three points. Kirk wiped at his brow and tossed down his bat, marching out of the arena without looking back and groaning at the state of his clothing. ]</sub>

[scrubscrub]

[Koala's persistent at the very least.

And also... feels bad, because if she'd made him fall or distracted him, you know.

It's sort of her fault.

So she's quick to offer a towel again, smiling nervously.]

Good job, sir! You did very well!

[universal_charm]

_{[ He's surprised at the young girl coming to offer him a towel, but he takes it gratefully all the same. If nothing else he can try and get his face clean, though the rest of him would require more privacy than a crowded street could offer. ]}

Ah, thank you, I guess. Wish I had done a bit better, as it turns out.

_{[ You know, mud and all. ]}

[scrubscrub]

[She shakes her head fervently.]

No, sir, you did wonderfully! I wouldn't have lasted very long, myself.

I apologize if I was unhelpful. I recognized you from the fleet and thought I should show support.

[universal_charm]

No, no it's all right. I appreciate it, really.

_{[ He smiled down at her. ]}

Sure you should be down here? Seems like a bit of a rough place.

[scrubscrub]

[She glances around, considerate.]

Do you think so? I suppose it's a little... rowdy!

But... the worst places are the ones that are completely calm, I think. I think it can be just as dangerous there, too. When there's just a lot of quiet air!
