open Bangcolt Arena! (Fighting/Sol) (RP)

[Vae Victis 742]

Vera considered it for a moment. Her mercenary training had made her used to only eating one meal a day. But at the same time, she didn't wat Kazas to feel bad, but she also didn't wanna waste time, so she was a bit conflicted, "Uh..no. I'm good. Let's go out together and eat after the fight. For now, let's focus on your friend ok?" she said as she walked ahead of Kazas with sassiness in her walk.

Kazas looked on for a bit as Vera trotted away sassily. In particular, his gaze was, for whatever reason, attracted to her flank. It was then that a strange thought would cross his mind.

 

' I do not know what has come over me as of late, but I must say, that a** is as divine as Avae himself-... What?!? No! What is wrong with me?!? That is both morally repulsive and sinful! But even still... There is something that draws my gaze to that point. Could this be the legendary power of the a**?... Why can't I stop thinking like this?!? Snap out of it Kazas! You are better than this!'

 

He shook his head a tad, and snapped out of it, following Vera.

Vera was purposefully walking that way to see how Kazas would react. She giggled and turned her head around to him, "Hey Kazas..." she stopped and snapped her tail like a whip, as if she was trying to hit a fly in the air, "See something you like, big boy?" she said before she continued to walk sassily as she laughed.

"oh, i could go for some food!" ruby said, walked next to red. "er--this is my first time being here, so could you guide me?" she added. 'this is so great!' she thought, 'iv already made a friend!' she squealed inwardly. 'and who knows? this is only day one! ill be sure to make more friends!'

 

Red shrugged. "I've actually never been to any restaurants around here. I kind of just buy some food and go back to training." Speaking of which, she was actually slightly sore. Not sore enough to postpone their fight, though. She was sure Ruby wasn't in tip-top shape either, as she'd only just come in.

 

She stopped at a sign that read;

"Warrior's Diner

All-Equestrian Food!

open 24/7!"

 

Probably was just hay-burgers and fries, but hey. (Hey, hay! Huehue) It was food.

 

"Is this okay? It seems pretty cheap. I don't have much money on me, so I can't afford too much more." Red said, shrugging.

Vera was purposefully walking that way to see how Kazas would react. She giggled and turned her head around to him, "Hey Kazas..." she stopped and snapped her tail like a whip, as if she was trying to hit a fly in the air, "See something you like, big boy?" she said before she continued to walk sassily as she laughed.

Kazas blushed tremendously, looking back and forth in a frenzied state of pure awkwardness.

 

" I, ummm. Yes, quite.. I-I mean..! I... I... Yes..."

 

Might as well admit it when he'd been caught. Of course, to him, this was even more awkward, given the fact that he'd never been in a relationship previously. He didn't know how to act, really. But one thing was for sure. He was quite a lucky griffon.

Vera laughed as she heard Kazas sputter like a child. It was so nice to be able to 'have fun' with her special somegriffon. Kazas had presented himself as serious and whatnot, so having some fun, was perfect for getting him outta that zone, "Come on Kazy. You gotta have some fun sometimes. You're always so serious and noble which, don't get me wrong, those are admirable traits. But you gotta....go crazy. You know? Just let loose and do whatever sometimes you know?" she got close to him, and put a hoof around his shoulder, "Whaddya say Kazy? Wanna take a walk on the wild side?" she asked with a face that said 'I dare ya'.

Kazas blushed again, and looked at Vera with a faint smile of reminiscence.

 

" aha... The last time I let loose, I drank an extremely heavy amount of alcohol with some friends on a journey. One friend ended up going behind the bushes to take care of business, and as it turns out, he urinated on an Ursa Minor. The resulting battle ended with me receiving broken ribs as a parting gift while a Mage lulled him to sleep... But you know what... What the hell. I guess I should loosen up a bit... Haha... ' what the hell. ' I like that phrase! So... What did you have in mind?"

Vera had to think for a moment. She had to think hard for a moment on what exactly she wanted her and Kazas to do. Suddenly, it clicked! "Well...maybe...I was thinking that if we had enough time before Lorec's fight, we could run a race out to the lake, and race back when they say his fight is gonna happen. Whaddya say?"

[P-Jay 1,987]

Red shrugged. "I've actually never been to any restaurants around here. I kind of just buy some food and go back to training." Speaking of which, she was actually slightly sore.

"Is this okay? It seems pretty cheap. I don't have much money on me, so I can't afford too much more." Red said, shrugging.

"race ya to the restaurant!" ruby blurted out, as she started sprinting in the direction of said restaurant.

 

when she got there, she started ordering enough food to feed the two, plus three more. 

 

she grinned. "so, red, how strong do you consider yourself?" she asked.

[Vae Victis 742]

Vera had to think for a moment. She had to think hard for a moment on what exactly she wanted her and Kazas to do. Suddenly, it clicked! "Well...maybe...I was thinking that if we had enough time before Lorec's fight, we could run a race out to the lake, and race back when they say his fight is gonna happen. Whaddya say?"

 

" that's the thing, Vera... They need me for... Well... This opening ceremony that we are doing for the fight. If I'm not there for the ceremony, well... It would be disrespectful, and many others would be saying ' what the hell ' in my stead. So how about this... After the fight... What say you and i go on that date for drinks we never got around to. And once we are there... I'll show that fire and alcohol really do mix. if you want to see me cut loose, it won't take much alcohol... But do you think you can out drink your lover?"

 

He said with a confident smile.

she grinned. "so, red, how strong do you consider yourself?" she asked.

Red caught up to Ruby, smiling. Though Ruby seemed only slightly younger than her, she acted a little childishly. It was refreshing, really, to see such a carefree pony.

 

Red blinked at how much Ruby had ordered. "Er... I can pay for my food, if you like. Unless... you're going to eat... all that?" she asked as the waiter-pony left. She watched him leave, then turned back to Ruby. "Well, anyway. I'm stronger than the average pony. I mean, obviously, as I have a sword. But I am easily of the lower level of warriors here. I hope to get stronger, though, and train here til I am at least mid-tier. But in less than a year year I will most likely run out of bits and have to find work elsewhere for awhile before returning. What about you?"

He said with a confident smile.

Vera was relieved to hear Kazas' idea. "I bet I could." then she sighed and sat down in a chair, "Waiting. Sooooo fun..." she said with a slightly disgusted look on her face, "So, do we wait here, or do we go over to the ceremonial gathering now?"she asked inquisitively.

What about you?"

"NO, NO, I INSIST." she said loudly, as she dug around in her bag, and pulled out a gargantuan-sized money bag. she tossed it to the waitress, who started to say something, but was interrupted by ruby saying 'keep the change'

 

they got their food, and ruby immediately started getting the food, and putting them into some type of bag she swiped from the front desk. she wrapped the food beforehand, of course.

 

she listened intently to everything red said, with a few nods here and there. "i know how it can feel to be so strong, and yet so weak." she said, still neatly putting the food into the bag.

 

it started getting weird when she got red's food, and put it in the same bag she stuffed her own food. 

 

"and while i would love to say something deep and meaningful right now, unfortunately, we gotta go! NOW!"

 

she pulled red's sleeve, and ran out the restaurant the moment the owner 'tested' the bag of bits ruby gave, and ended up with a chipped tooth. the rest of the 'bits' had paint that was washing off. it turned out they were just pieces of wood, painted gold with some sort of juice!

 

ruby laughed as they were briefly chased. then they got away by dashing into a alley, and waiting till they passed. 

 

"so...you had the grilled cheese, right?" she asked, looking in the bag of food she had stolen. "im sure you did..."

 

she grinned. that little trick she pulled was invented by no other then caliber, who according to his adventure log, did it quite often.

[Vae Victis 742]

Vera was relieved to hear Kazas' idea. "I bet I could." then she sighed and sat down in a chair, "Waiting. Sooooo fun..." she said with a slightly disgusted look on her face, "So, do we wait here, or do we go over to the ceremonial gathering now?"she asked inquisitively.

 

" heading there now is what I had planned. That way, we can actually get some excitement in all of this monotony. Believe me, if this battle is going to be what I believe it shall be, you won't be bored for very long... To be honest... I've been thinking about getting into some arena battles myself...."

 

He said as he turned to walk out of the embassy.

 

" come with me, Mea Amica. And please, you look so, so much more beautiful when you smile."

[J.R. 3,183]

Vera smiled as Kazas talked. She got up, and followed him outside the embassy, "Alright Kazas. Where exactly are we headed? Like, you know where the ceremonial gathering is being held prior to the fight, right?" she asked as she walked ahead of him again.

[Little Red 1,529]

@,

 

"Noooo." Red groaned, facehoofing as Ruby dragged her out. "I would be fine with stealing, but only if we were in disguise! Goodness, now they know what we look like!" She groaned again, regretting her entire life, and plopped down in the alley.

 

"Okay, let's eat." She said grumpily. She wasn't about to get angry at the friendly pony that Red knew would become her friend soon-- not that Red would trust her anytime soon after that little trick.

[P-Jay 1,987]

"Noooo." Red groaned, facehoofing as Ruby dragged her out. "I would be fine with stealing, but only if we were in disguise! Goodness, now they know what we look like!" She groaned again, regretting her entire life, and plopped down in the alley.

"thats what these are for!" she said, pulling out a few slap-on fake mustaches. "so we can do it again under a disguise!" 

 

she went for an evil cackle, but considering her age and size, it only came out as a sorta cute giggle.

 

 

"Okay, let's eat." She said grumpily. She wasn't about to get angry at the friendly pony that Red knew would become her friend soon-- not that Red would trust her anytime soon after that little trick.

ruby frowned. "relax, if worst comes to worst, we could just eat berries. im sure cali--er, calcifer has a page on edible plants..."

 

she tossed red's sandwich at her, and pulled out her own food. "by the way, can i be your roommate?" she asked suddenly. "feel free to decline." she added causally.

[Little Red 1,529]

@,

 

Red stared at the mustache then, despite herself, burst out laughing.

 

"This is a terrible disguise!" She laughed, then collapsed backwards, sighing. She grabbed the sandwich Ruby had given her and began eating.

 

She didn't steal unless she had to-- so this rubbed her the wrong way. But she'd stolen a lot when she was younger. True, she'd made it a point to begin paying back all those she'd stolen from... but Ruby was younger than her. She didn't mean any harm by stealing.

 

Anyway, one meal wouldn't do that much harm...

 

 

 

"by the way, can i be your roommate?" she asked suddenly. "feel free to decline." she added causally.

Red almost spit out her sandwich in surprise. She swallowed quickly, wiping her mouth with her hoof.

 

"Well, I would say yes, but... well, do you mind living on the ground next to a training area? I don't have a room, I don't have the money," Red admitted. "Anyway, the open air is more comfortable to me than a room."

"hey, its worked before." ruby said with a suddenly serious tone. "i got this one shop thrice."

 

she brightened up when red said 'yes'

 

"all right! we'll be an unstoppable team, you and me! the dynamic duo! the sisterly swords! red-coated terror! ice and dice! team we're-not-that-experienced-but-we'll-still-kick-you-into-next-week!"

 

she laughed. and she didnt even seem to care that red was homeless.

@,

Red smiled slightly.

 

"You are one weird pony-- in the best way," she add kindly. She stared blankly at the mountain of food that was still there. "Are you actually going to eat all that now?" She asked, slightly concerned and slightly impressed.

 

A thought occurred to her. If they showed up at the arena now, together, and anyone from the restaurant was there... they were in trouble. She would bring it up later, she decided. She wanted to chat a little more. She couldn't remember ever making such a fast friend in any pony.

"i konw im a weird pony in the best way." ruby said, starting to eat. "and no, what kind of pony could eat this much?!"

 

caliber sneezed, somewhere.

 

"im just saving this food for later!" she grinned. "you got a fridge?"

"and dont worry, red, i can make friends with anyone! ill just pay that shop guy a visit, and it'll be just fine!"

 

her grin faltered. "granted, thats never worked before, but hey! i can still swipe more food while im at it!"

@,

 

 

"and no, what kind of pony could eat this much?!"

Red had the strangest feeling there was something she was missing, but decided not to mention it. Just a gut feeling, after all.

 

 

 

"im just saving this food for later!" she grinned. "you got a fridge?"

"Of course I don't have a fridge," she said, blinking, "remember, I'm homeless!" she chuckled slightly.

 

 

 

"and dont worry, red, i can make friends with anyone! ill just pay that shop guy a visit, and it'll be just fine!" her grin faltered. "granted, thats never worked before, but hey! i can still swipe more food while im at it!"

Red's smile faded slightly as well. She decided to be somewhat heartfelt about the topic. And honest.

 

"A few years ago, I stole all the time." She said honestly. "This year, I've started paying back all those I stole from. I feel a lot better now. If you ever want to embark on something like that, I would be glad to help you. If you don't, I understand that too."

 

She got up abruptly. "Enough talk of this things, we've only just met. Let's talk about more cheerful things." She normally wasn't one to escape the elephant in the room-- but she also didn't want to risk this friendship needlessly. "Shall we spend some more time getting to know each other? Perhaps go into the arena tomorrow?" Maybe Red could convince Ruby to go even later. She really didn't want to risk her reputation this quickly in Bangcolt.

[P-Jay 1,987]

"Of course I don't have a fridge," she said, blinking, "remember, I'm homeless!" she chuckled slightly.

"ah, i can fix that. using the same trick!"

 

she grinned mischiefly.

"ah, phooey. i dont like hearing about how i should act." ruby said, laying down, and taking another bite. "this lifestyle makes me happy, so ill keep on doing me."

 

"and sure, we can talk instead of fight!" she added cheerfully, "and im ready whenever you are!"

Red said nothing about her stealing a fridge.

 

Why would she? It was to both their advantage, after all.

 

She considered bringing up the problem that would be going to the arena now, but decided to search for more subjects instead.

 

"Would you like to explore the city together?" She suggested. "Perhaps via alleyways or rooftops. I haven't seen much of the city, and it might be fun."

"argh! this is moments when im mad at life for not giving me wings!" she said, puffing her cheeks out, and pouting.

 

"but im just fine with alleyways!" she got up, and put the food in a bag. "who knows, maybe we'll find some ponies to give some food to!"

 

she started trotting. "c'mon!"

Red opened her mouth to say, 'well, we can also save the food,' but decided against it. This showed that Ruby did have morals, after all.

 

She trotted after Ruby quickly. "I'll show you where the arena is!" Red said, beginning to become a little cheerful. "It's amazingly big."
