"buddy you're a boy make a big noise;"

[alloys]

Who: Tony, fight participants, medical aide, and whoever wants to come watch!
What: Fight club!
When: Thursday, February 9th
Where: The tunnels
Summary: Placing bets and taking swings.
Rating: PG-13?
Let's get ready to rumble, boys and girls! A few quick notes:

Double check the fight roster--I moved some things around, namely matching up Firo with Homura since their respective opponents weren't able to participate. Let me know if something is amiss!

Characters who are fighting will be told their opponent's name upon arrival, and fights will proceed in the order they appear on the roster up there. Let me know if you need to be moved around for whatever reason!

Tony and Shikamaru will be policing the fights for any funny business, but fights will end when one of the participants forfeits or gets knocked out cold. So your character can get bloodied, bludgeoned, and broken and keep going if they wish! Remember, there's no magic since this is in the tunnels, and there are no weapons allowed in the fights. Just your fists, elbows, et cetera.

And should they have some owwies that need attention, Adele, Katara, Luca and Ange will be on hand to provide medical assistance. What troopers.

Spectators can interact however and whenever they want, so feel free to start a new thread for your character who is watching!

Now have fun, and earn some radical new scars while you're at it!

Masaomi? You're here too?

[ Curious, blinking at him. But she's not in street clothes -- instead, she's wearing things she might for exercise or training. She's very obviously here as one of the fighters. ]

[generalflirt]

Truth told, shouldn't I be more surprised to see you?

[Despite his very, very foul mood, he manages to try to force a neutral tone for that]

[fourteen]

Why would you be surprised to see me here? [ A blink.

... bro, what did you do to your hair. ]

[generalflirt]

Because this isn't really the place for someone like you, Xion-chan.

[fourteen]

... why?

[generalflirt]

Isn't that obvious? There's no class or refinement here. It's blood and sweat.

[fourteen]

... so what? I knew that coming here, Masaomi. This is about fighting.

[generalflirt]

Ah, you did, did you?

[...That doesn't suit her at all]

[fourteen]

Of course I did. Why else would I be here? I signed up with Tony to be one of the fighters. I knew exactly what I was getting into!

[ She's staring at him incredulously, honestly a little surprised. ]

I don't know what you mean by "someone like me," but ... I've always been a fighter. Ever since I was created.

[generalflirt]

[Created what.

He turns to very flat look at her. Incredulous]

[fourteen]

[ ... her spine stiffens.

She forgets, sometimes, who knows and who doesn't. Is this really a good time to get into that conversation...?

Xion sighs, eyes downcast. ]

Listen... it's a long story. My point is that I can be here as much as any of the other fighters, okay? I'll be fine.

[generalflirt]

[ ... ] Punch me.

[fourteen]

[ ... ]

Right now? Why?

[generalflirt]

Because I said so. Now do it.

[fourteen]

[ She considers for a second. She really doesn't want to - he's her friend - but she can see he's trying to prove some sort of point here. So, after a moment's hesitation, she shrugs, and throws a punch. ]

[generalflirt]

[Despite his not quite at attention stance, his hand flies up to intercept the punch. It wraps around her fist, catching it relatively easily]

[fourteen]

[ She doesn't push it, or try to break away or counter. She's really not sure what he's looking for. All she does is give him a questioning look. ]

[generalflirt]

[He tightens his grip for a moment, but then releases it and sighs]

That wasn't that strong.

[fourteen]

[ With a somewhat crooked smile. ] Masaomi, you just asked me to punch you for no reason. And we've both got real fights coming up. What were you expecting?

[generalflirt]

A stronger punch, if you think you should be here.

[Flatly, still. But fine, fine, if she insists]

[fourteen]

... look, I'll make you a deal. How about we spar soon? For real, no punches pulled. Would that make you feel better?

[generalflirt]

...Nope. I don't like hitting cute girls.

[But, with a smile and a wave, he's going to turn to walk away now]

Look out for my match, Xion-chan~

[fourteen]

[ Somehow, that feels like an insult, and Xion starts. Instead of letting him go, she grabs his shoulder. ]

Wait! What's that supposed to mean? Didn't I just tell you I'm a fighter too?

[generalflirt]

It means what I said. I don't like hitting cute girls.

[Who didn't otherwise prove themselves. And even if they did he would have his doubts with this context]

[fourteen]

Is that all you see me as?
