BANTER SUCH AS THIS IS commonplace in the life of a pit fighter ; the type of clothing he wears , whether hewn from rough fabric or fine silk , means nothing but the end of one battle and the beginning of another . ( Being clad in luxury matters little in the face of a living , breathing challenge ———— and agile , glib and witty as Rakan may be , Sett will respond to his taunts with a smile . ) “ Do I now ? ” he responds , matching Rakan’s sneer with a fanged one of his own . “ Think my track record says enough about my strength , don’t’cha think ? Oh , but wait —— I forget you don’t keep track of that kinda thing . ” He shifts , takes a single step towards Rakan to make to invade his personal space , posture the perfect mix of arrogant and playful . Two can play at this game , and dancing is nothing if not another form of combat . “ I could set up a demonstration in the ring if you’re willin’ to dance , pretty boy . ”
HOW A SMILE CAN CONVEY delicacy in its most rich forms, how it is attributed to moments of peace & dulcet times where chaos had been so denied entrance to maintain this conjured serenity. but what of those smiles whose purpose is to taunt, whose sole purpose is to stir chaos, to invoke a muse that shall witness acts of violence, dutifully performed for naught but entertainment. ( this was fun, this was a show, & though two may stand center stage, rakan is beauty's gift upon the world. sett is yet another face in rakan's audience. )
❛ do you know who you're talking to ? ❜ not once does he falter in the face of danger, even as he comes closer, there is no reason to lose upright posture ; no, rakan challenges him, he is one to always smirk & laugh in the face of adversity !! laugh, laugh he does, not hearty, as it's a mere chuckle. the boss of the pits must know the truth : he does not fear him, especially when one wishes to duel him in his own craft. ( that ... is what he meant, right ? ) ❛ rakan, charmer, best dancer in all of ionia. seriously, challenging me to a dance, you sure about that ? i thought fighting was more your style, but who am i to deny anyone a dance !? ❜ hyped up, step forward, preparing himself for supposed dance battle. he was here to fight, but this works, too !
