X- Rhy's encounter with Ysir

Rhys encounter with Ysir What I really picture having happened was when he went over to the bedpost she would have blinked and said - you were flirting? Can we start here? Enter You sent For sure( i have to got the office today so this will be a touch sporatic) Enter Joanna
Enter You sent Ysir’s brovado shifts, he rases an eyebro “Yes… weren’t you?” Enter Joanna “I… I thought you were just being a macho ass” Enter Joanna her posture changes from all “that’s right im badass, don’t fuck with me” to embarrassed Enter Joanna If he pauses, she will say “I don’t like being told I’m not worthy, not good at something.” Enter Joanna “Especially when I clearly am” and she’s going to shoot him a look Enter Joanna Like pointing out his bloody nose and bruises Enter Joanna
Tone still has a little edge to it, but is not biting Enter You sent * ysir leand off of the bead post returning to hid normal size.* “so you thought fighting me while i had no armor, with a sword i’ve never used, sitting in a chair drinking tea is proof you can beat me in a fight? I assumed this ‘fight’ was you flirting, venting your surely inumerable frustrations with me. My apologize i clearly crossed a line.” Enter Joanna
“I’m not wearing armor either, nor do I have a weapon. My frustrations with you are that you are treating me like a child. That I am some weak thing that you are SOOO much better than. Look - I get it. You and Auna are married - you won an imagined competition. Big whoop. I was with her two years ago - I’m not trying to steal her from you. Stop trying to prove yourself by questioning my skill and trying to make me feel bad. I’m tough as shit and don’t deserve your peacocking because you see me as some sort of threat.” Enter Sep 16, 2021, 11:24 AM You sent * He stares his face expressionless* “You think i see you as a threat… to me and Auna, that her love is some sort of competition to me?! Moonfolk take many partner’s, they marry multiple people, have children with many people over many years. If i tried to make a competition of it that would be like competing over who could breath more air. You can’t steal her from me because i don’t own her. If any one sees this as a competition about Auna it’s you. I apologize for not realizing that. Auna is the reason i know you can fight, she’s the reason i know you’re a caster specializing in healing, long range spell casting and has the ability to quickly change style to be an up close fighter. I don’t fight children Rhy. I fight legitimate opponents. I thought being a tried and tested gladiator would mean you were used to a little playful banter. I obviously crossed a line. Enter Joanna
“Ugh why does no one believe me! I am fine with Auna being married to you. Hell I’m happy for her - to find someone she cares about enough to decide to have kids with. I’m not a lovesick puppy. And I know she’s polyamorous - I’m not looking for her not to be, I don’t view it as a competition. If I wanted to be with her, I would be. But honestly, that’s not what I want right now. And ya you did cross a line. Playful banter is like making fun of my noodle arms - insulting me is when you repeatedly say I’m less than you. Enter Joanna
For the first part she would have sat down and put her head in her hands. Second part she would cross arms, sit back and like look away from him. That part would have less bite than the first. More “okay, your apologizing, I guess I can’t be AS mad” Enter Sep 16, 2021, 12:32 PM You sent He takes a moment. Looking up at the stained glass. “Well i certainly wouldn’t called you a love sick puppy, Auna evokes a much more meaningful emotion than that from you obviously. “ * he takes a quick breath trying to collect his thoughts before you can interject* So lets be clear whatever going on here, whatever whirlpool of emotions and feelings is happening between us, while maybe made more complicated because of our unique relationships to Auna, it isn’t about Auna. I never meant to imply you were less then me. And any words to that effect were meant to solely about a comparison of us in proper combat. You are with out a doubt an incredible woman. You’ve won impressive bouts in the Snowbright arena, prevented Dark Mound from become a much more apt description of the city, you’ve discovered the truth about Izret, defended Snowbright from an ancient undead monstrosity, you’ve managed to somehow impress both Lord Varse and Master Elsa. I’d be a ignorant moron to suggest you were less then me, feats like we’ve performed can’t be compared like they have point values added up to some total score. Thats not the point of being a hero or why we do this. You will never be able to quantify the effects of what you’ve put into the world, the lives you’ve changed the lives you’ve saved. Nothing about you is less then me.” Enter Joanna
“Damn straight.” Enter You sent (Is that all or should i wait) Enter Joanna That’s all. She kinda looks like she’s biting her tongue a lil. But also looks like she’s not sure where to go from there lol Enter Joanna
If he doesn’t say anything right away and there is a weird pause in the air, let me know Enter You sent the corner of his lips poke up into a small smile “if you have more to say, say it. We’ve gotten this far haven’t we? Enter Joanna … she mumbles under her breath… “I still think I could take you in the arena” Enter Joanna Then quickly says “but that doesn’t matter right now” Enter Joanna “Can we just I don’t know… start over?” Enter Joanna
If he was going to say something, ignore what I said Enter You sent “My party and i have considered fighting in the arena And would be a hell of a promotion ‘the decendants of Izret, the Hero and Kynta, the Warlord, one night only’. Especially if after, assuming you managed to defeat us, we join your gladiatorial house.” Enter You sent (He said that before the lets start over) Enter Joanna
She will smile and say I want to see that match Enter You sent He leans against the bed post again and crosses his arms his smile a bit wider now Though to be honest right now it seems a bit unfair i’ve seen and heard all about the things you can do. And all i’ve shown you is that i know how to swing a sword and look pretty. Enter Joanna
“You can look pretty? Haven’t seen that yet. :P” Shes smiling, not sticking her tongue out. Enter You sent “Well we can’t all be a literal radiant beauty like you Rhy, but I was under the impression you liked purple.” Enter Joanna
Her smile will widen. “I like lots of things…” she’s going to trail off, stare at him for a long moment, look him up and down ponderously. Before saying “why don’t I show you?” And fade to black? Enter You sent
