HARPER
Her full lips and bright teeth are so reminiscent of his past love, and yet he's just as helpless to her beauty and mischief, adrenaline already beginning to thrum intoxicatingly in his veins. "Handle you, you mean?" he teases back, voice like smoke as he twirls the hilt of his sword in blatant show-off. What can he say, he's a gentleman but a little bit of teasing when blood is hot isn't beyond him. "I think I'm up to the task."
As she approaches he almost awaits an attack, and instead is given the purr of her voice announcing her own name. Harper grins, bright blues dancing with eager mirth as he too sidles just a little closer, body loose and expectant. "Harper." And then he winks at her and, ready to begin, hopes to catch her by surprise as his swinging swordhand grips tight, and Yanks upward in a cross body slash. Foregoing the predictable overhand most favor.

some things take insane bravery
but after that, you'll be free
