Happy to meet you

Who; Angel (Inesa) [personal profile] unknownmoirai & Fayt Leingod [personal profile] angelofdestruction
What; Meet up
Where; The fighting arena
When; Early February
Warnings; None, will change if needed



Fayt found the fighting arena and was there to compete. He was missing Albel and Cliff on his team, and Nel was always a good change up if the other two got winded. It wasn't like either of them would ever mention or admit that, but still, he knew.

So he got asked his name and Fayt gave it. But then he was asked what he wanted his team name to be which confused him because there wasn't a team to be had. Still, he went with the one Albel liked in Gemity which was the Arcane Warriors of the Black Brigade. Except, he changed it to Arcane Warrior because he was the only one there. So he went a few rounds and then the arena got damaged by another set of fighters while waiting for the next match.

Giving himself a breather, Fayt took a shower and managed a change of clean clothes. There were several more matches and so he found out he was unexpectedly done for the day. Deciding to stay on site, he got himself a bit of food which was more than he could eat. But he took it all anyway since he'd paid for it and made his way up into the arena seating. There with his food, he carefully walked through the stands.

A lady was already there, and he had to ask. "I'm sorry to bother you but is the seat next to you taken?"

Inesa had wanted to take her time to learn of the city that she'd be living in but the day had somehow slipped away from her. Instead of exploring the nearby streets, her attention had been captured by the fights that took place in the area. She'd never seen anything like it before and as a pacifist, she was trying to decide if she liked it or not. It didn't appear as if people were killed and as a sport it was exciting but she was worried about those who were injured in the matches.

Whatever the allure, it worked, because Inesa had spent a great deal of the day watching the matches.

Her thoughts were distracted when she heard someone addressing her. "Oh!" Inesa turned, her blue-gray eyes meeting the gaze of the man standing along the aisle. "Of course not. Please sit."

Inesa was dressed in a crisp white shirt and a dark green skirt. Her hair was loose, framing her shoulders in subtle wheat waves with a dark green beret resting on the top of her head. She was dressed for the cold with a pair of tights and sturdy black boots but she continued to rub her fingers together as if cold.

"You were in the earlier matches, weren't you? I remember you."
angelofdestruction: (Ya uh...)

He nodded, relieved to be able to find such a good seat to watch the matches. It never hurt to 'know your enemy before you strike the first blow' as Cliff was always saying. So Fayt had decided to try and study future opponents and look for weaknesses when he'd have to eventually face them.

"Thanks."

He started to get comfortable in his chair as he set his things down and looked over at the person who had agreed to let him sit next to her as she figured out who he was. So a hand went up to scratch at the back of his head.

"Ya. I was competing earlier."
unknownmoirai: (Light smile)

Inesa's fingers lightly touched in front of her smile when she recalled correctly. "I thought so." She hadn't been paying close attention to all of the matches but Fayt had moved like a dancer and she'd found it difficult to look away from him. "You were very impressive."

Many of the fights had relied on brut force and it was during those fights that Inesa's attention focused on the crowd but Fayt's fight had been different.

"Are you hurt at all?" She tried to think back to the details of the fight but she didn't remember Fayt getting injured. She was positive that he had won all of his matches. "I do not know if these fights often go too far. It is my first time to the area."
angelofdestruction: (Do what now?)

[personal profile] angelofdestruction 2022-02-16 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
"Uh..thanks." Fayt replied, trying to think of something to say. He knew he was good in battle and that his matches so far hadn't been all that tough since he trained both in the arena and outside of it regularly. Battles just kept coming at the team no matter what, and it seemed enemies were everywhere and plentiful.

The party tried to keep their skills up by competing and dealing with things normally, but to hear it called impressive by a complete stranger took him by surprise.

But he did look up at her when she asked if he was hurt. "No, I'm fine." He had healed himself once he was off the field even as he'd done so on the tournament battlefield. Fayt smiled a little at the last part to her words.

"No, the judges call it on the field." Pretty much like they'd done back home. Still, this seemed a puzzle.

"So, you're new here?"
unknownmoirai: (I don't know what you mean)

[personal profile] unknownmoirai 2022-02-19 07:31 pm (UTC)(link)
"I am glad. I was worried when I first learned of this place. I was not sure if people were getting hurt." It was for that reason that she had come to the area and stayed long enough to watch some of the matches. Not everyone exited the ring unscathed and Inesa toyed with the thought of offering her services to those who require intensive healing after their matches.

Her head inclined in a gentle nod in answer to his question. "Yes."

Inesa turned back to look at Fayt with a warm smile. "Is that unusual?" She didn't know how frequently people arrived to the city but she knew that there were several after hearing about the reason why they were all brought here. Compared to the Sphere, it was a noble endeavor.
angelofdestruction: (I don't know if I believe that)

[personal profile] angelofdestruction 2022-02-23 06:27 am (UTC)(link)
"Well..some do get hurt, but there's people in this one room that treat the wounded. And if they can't fight anymore, then they get sent home." Fayt had offered to heal some people himself, but got turned away. For some unknown reason to him healing from someone who competed just wasn't welcome.

But at hearing she was new, he had to try to smile a little bit with the one that was aimed right at him. "No, I'm new too. But I thought to try my hand at something I'm familiar with, to see how well I could hold my own."

He then looked away and inclined his head towards the ring. "I just didn't realize I wouldn't be fighting all day like I'd thought." Even if it really was a good thing.
unknownmoirai: (Uncertain)

Inesa blinked, suddenly uncertain. "You are familiar with fighting all day?" She tried to imagine a world where fighting was a constant but it was outside of her imagination. Even Rhy's world or Jon's, which she understood had a great deal of fighting, had moments where there was peace.

"Who do you fight? And why?"

Her attention was firmly on Fayt though the occasional rise in volume from the crowd had her turning to look back at the center of the fighting rink.
angelofdestruction: (Almost sad face)

"Uh..well back home I did." Fayt admitted, reaching a hand up behind his neck to nervously scratch at it. There wasn't any help for it some days, especially when they were travelling town to town. The party sometimes tried to go out of their way to avoid fights but monsters came after them anyhow and there wasn't much avoiding it honestly.

But her question had him wondering if somehow he wasn't supposed to have been doing that so he hesitated before answering. "Do you mean here, or do you mean back home?"

He too looked at the ring but he realized the crowd was cheering for one of the guys he was eventually going to have to fight with. Well, that's what he was here for really.

"Back home." She clarified in a gentle voice. "I am not sure what world you are from or what you consider to be normal. My homeworld is very different from most places and the place I was before here had strange instances that I had not seen elsewhere. Some involved fighting but I did not partake in those activities and found other ways to help."

Inesa didn't want him to think that she was judging him. She was merely curious about his world and his experiences in it.
angelofdestruction: (Well it could)

[personal profile] angelofdestruction 2022-03-06 02:47 am (UTC)(link)
"I'm from Earth." Fayt replied with a nod. He wasn't sure where this lady was from and to him it really didn't matter. He'd met people from different planets and he got along with most everyone.

Most.

Still, he shook his head at her words. "Well on Earth there was always fighting but I didn't fight there. We were able to travel to other planets where I'm from, and we fought to keep people safe and to stop people that wanted to destroy our galaxy."

Even if they hadn't quite gotten to that stage yet.
unknownmoirai: (Uncertain)

[personal profile] unknownmoirai 2022-03-07 11:54 pm (UTC)(link)
"Ah. Earth." She's heard of Earth before and had spent a few years living within its atmosphere but she didn't remember humans having the ability to travel to other planets. Her conclusion was that she'd visited a past Earth and not the one that Fayt knew.

"That is very admirable of you. I had been traveling between planets and plans as well but I imagine my gates are different from your travel. I have only learned of angels and demons using the plan gates." That was what she'd learned from Alex and Richard back at the Sphere, though she hadn't considered that their Earth wasn't the same Earth that she had known.

It was all very interesting.
angelofdestruction: (Kind of thoughtful)

[personal profile] angelofdestruction 2022-03-10 07:21 am (UTC)(link)
"Angels and demons." Fayt echoed softly, but he kept his thoughts to himself as far as what he was thinking. Truth be told he was thinking of the Enforcers and Proclaimers of the one who wanted to erase the entire galaxy. It unnerved him more times than he wanted to admit, but he wasn't about to try to explain any of that whole mess here.

So the blue haired head shook and he sighed.

"It sure sounds as if it were different points in time or something like that."

Surely she hadn't heard any of what he knew so he decided to leave it where it was.
unknownmoirai: (I don't know what you mean)

[personal profile] unknownmoirai 2022-03-13 07:58 pm (UTC)(link)
"That is possible." Inesa agreed with a smile.

"I admit," She turned to watch the match as she continued to speak. "I do not have a firm concept of time. I have learned to mark it as a measure of passing but my race did not have such a thing. We existed for as long as we were needed." Inesa wouldn't die until her time was finished but as a Keeper, she would have lived a nearly infinite life span.

"I do not think it is something that I understand well." She looked back at Fayt with a smile. "So maybe you could tell me a bit about it? Your home, that is."
