Under Construction [Social][The Group]

Zadi was just minding his own business when a silver haired figure approached the blonde warrior. The blonde warrior was displeased with the tension in the air, especially considering this tension was scaring Gaaron, Zadi's normally ill-tempered beast. At first Zadi couldn't recognize the silver haired woman, not even the canine beast she was with. However, the beast seemed most familiar, slowly encircling behind Zadi as the white haired beast tried to intimidate the blonde warrior with size and pure ferocity. When the silver haired woman gave the white canine a command, Zadi's memory jolted back to a special coliseum battle.

So she grew her hair out...damn, of all the times I barely have any equipment on my person. At least I can heal myself if things get too rough...ugh, gladiators tend to leave each other alone outside the arena...for good reason.

Zadi kept his guard up, worried the silver haired woman and canine wanted revenge. The canine seemed all too willing to tear Zadi limb from limb outside of a 'quick spar' but at least the white beast was tamed by the much calmer woman. If Zadi remembered correctly, the silver haired woman had above average strength, so either a Fanalis or trained human like Zadi. Regardless of her race, the gladiatorial woman would likely be much stronger now, probably even surpassing Zadi in physical strength and speed due to revenge-fueled training. After a few moments of silence, the shirtless Zadi with only a necklace and three rings on his right hand responded.

"You caught me at a bad time...like, seriously bad time; I don't have any weapons on my person and you clearly do, hahaha! So yeah, maybe another time."

Zadi quickly glanced at the silver haired woman's sword, attempting to figure out a plan of action in case things got rough; the canine was behind Zadi and the sword was at the woman's side. If Zadi was still faster than the woman, then perhaps he could flip the sword out of the sheathe and jettison the sword pommel-first into the canine's face while simultaneously disarming the woman. Granted, the sword looked curved, so any legitimate attempt at just flicking the sword out of the sheathe would likely end disastrously, not to mention the ambiguous speed factor. Things were not in Zadi's favor if a battle started right here and now. The blonde warrior did have weaponless techniques of which the canine would likely remember one. Though in such close quarters, throwing a hunk of earth wouldn't be a smart move.

Ugh, dammit! She's got me cornered! I just need a damn sword, too! If survive this encounter, I'll train myself some hand-to-hand techniques...maybe some magoi manipulation attacks. At least still have my exoskeleton technique.

Magic Items:

Thorsten, sat in the chair. Tankard half empty at this point. Drinking lemonade was like drinking water for him. Thorsten, could really down his drinks. Maybe make a excellent drinker? Maybe. Thorsten, knew he had to head back to the caravan soon. But sitting and talking to his friends is fun. Thorsten, still didn't get the name which made him puff up his cheeks.

“ Um… I need to take my leave. Tonight was fun until that magician ruined things. But sorry to have to leave shortly after wanting to talk. hahaha “ Thorsten, said.

He hadn't stood up yet. Fiddling his fingers together as he continued to finish his lemonade. Such sweetness he savored each sip. Rocking side to side, jittery. Thorsten, placed the tankard back on the table with a few huang. “ I must be y'all ado? Eh… thought that sounded cooler. Haha, bye Jingyi, and Oliver. “

Thorsten, said. Standing up from his chair. Smiling at his friends. Then stepping off towards the door to leave. Moving through the backs of the recovering people. Thorsten, white hair should be visible as it stands out. Exiting through the entrance door to be greeted by the old men usually sitting there. Thorsten, giving a light wave and walking off to return to the caravan.

Ability/Abilities Used:

Oliver leaned back in his chair, waving goodbye to the shrimp that strutted off, leaving him alone at the table with Jingyi. While he leaned back, two legs of the chair lifted off of the ground, his heels against the table as he rocked himself back and forth while gazing up at the ceiling.

"Yeah? Well what was his name then? I'm dying to know right now." He said while rolling his eyes at the mention of a magician, "Honestly those guys like to flaunt what they have from afar but in a close fight you can see what their weakness is. I've lived with them long enough to know just what they can and can't do."

He lurched back forward, his chair legs thudding into the ground as he looked at Jingyi straight in the eyes now. "So I don't think I asked. What's an upstanding citizen like Jing, Yi, Hou, From, Kou, doing in a place like this?" He asked with a smile after using his little nursery rhyme style method of saying her name.

Of the two individuals confronting Zadi, the blonde warrior was most worried about the extra large canine behind him, lapping the lips laced with a strange substance. Zadi vaguely remembered defending against the canine's spit using a small boulder, though the vague memory was mostly dominated by the magicians girl who's staff Zadi split in twain. Of all targets Zadi has ever faced, those capable of using magic were the most dangerous and tricky to deal with, hence why Zadi remembered going after the staff-wielder more so than recalling the canine's spit-based capabilities. A more vivid flashback entered the blonde warrior's mind while remembering the series of events within the coliseum battle involving the silver haired woman and her canine; not only was a magical girl involved, but so was a bird creature.

Damn, I let the bird slip my mind! Where is it!? That winged rat dealt a number to my ribs during that battle...

However, before Zadi's paranoia could focus on any sort of bird, which may or may not be within the area, the canine licked Zadi's hair, slowly and thoroughly. Zadi's hair would have been ruined if the dog's tongue wasn't dry whereas the tongue would be within Zadi's grasp if the blonde wasn't distracted by his own worries. A real mess Zadi found himself in until the silver haired woman eased the tension with a dainty pat and soft voice. Ugh, so she's not here to kill me outright...well, here's hoping she stays true to her words. Zadi loosened his stance and shook his head to both fix his hair and clear his paranoia addled mind. The blonde's face took on a light smirk when he responded to the silver haired tamer.

"Oh man, I thought you'd try to kill me after what happened! Hahaha! Well, we can still fight later on if you insist, but for now let's get the tea your paying for...when my weapons and kimono were taken, so was my money...that is, unless you help my find my stuff?"

Zadi then turned his gaze towards the canine in an attempt to indicate the obvious; dogs are known for their sense of smell so why not make use of this supposed skill? Perhaps the silver haired woman's canine's sense of smell could sniff out Zadi's belongings using the natural smell of Zadi's body odor? Granted, with how large the canine is, maybe such a miracle wouldn't be possible...

He bid Thorsten farewell and was talking to only Jingyi now, the girl talking about how she was a soldier and a citizen. But that just brought up more questions as to why someone so upstanding would be in a den of debauchery such as this. He let it go while she mentioned who both Zadi and Thorsten were.

"I've met that kid before, followed me around because some mercenaries crushed his candy. But yeah that blonde lad who just left before introducing himself, Zadi." He snapped his fingers and pointed at the girl while taking in the sights of the room around him. He finally reached up and grabbed the wig on the top of his head, throwing it off to the ground in a swift motion to really start scratching his skull.

[color=teal]"Dear lord the itchiness of those things! I feel like I've got a bunch of pine needles growing out of my head."omplained until he had scratched enough to make his hair fluff out like a miniature afro. After that he slipped back and looked up to the ceiling as he took a moment to answer Jingyi's question, [color=teal]"Well you see--"

He leaned forward and gave her the most serious look he ever had and a menacing grin on his face, "--I'm actually an assassin and I came to steal someone's key just to get into their house and make it look like an accident two weeks from now."

After a tense few seconds of silence, he just slapped the table and started to laugh before he wiped a tear from his eye, "If only--screw whatever Takane wants. I just came here because I was given some money for it and I figured that I could use the inspiration for a deep-seated underground for my book. So two birds, one stone."
