DEIMOS
the fire can't touch me
for I have burned too many times
for I have burned too many times
Tying his hair back, and briefly surveying the cluster of food, he reached around her to snag a cracker, the wiles of his smile inching upwards at her acceptance of a challenge. Spurning one another on, whether through antics, provocations, or anything melded and molded in between, was a traditional aspect from both individuals; conspiring together had more than one perk. Reaching for one of the wooden training items, an instinctual pull towards the blade, he batted it back and forth between his calloused palms, feet taking an inherent stance along their chosen wake.
Head tilting back towards her as he stretched his arms and went through several warmup maneuvers, the explanation rumbled through his throat, only loud enough for her to hear. “Just the training ones,” which enabled a wide array – spears, bows, staffs, swords; some they’d both be experienced with, and others not as likely. “Each time one of us gets a hit, we must change the weapon.” Rolling his shoulders, Deimos considered the ante and potential result, boons for boons. He hadn’t forgotten he already owed her some from previous games. “First one to five hits wins.” From there though, he waited for her agreement and accord; in case she found some fault or flaw in the design.

the sea can't harm me
for I have been drowning all my life
for I have been drowning all my life
