She wondered if the new guild being here might have banned the betting on fights or if maybe they had taken it more under ground or changed how one could place a bet on them. Carmina was wondering if that bunny woman will really be enough to stop an uproar or maybe she was a wolf in bunny's clothes. She would watch for now and see if she was worth going up to or if this woman was going to not be worth watching but something was drawing her toward the woman.

This was snot her usual kind of place to be. She often preferred being back at the guild reading a book from her growing collection or testing a new recipe. She was usually a home body. But now that she was a part of this guild and she saw all the work she had to do, she realized there was more for her to do and focus on.
In one of her recent missions, she was sent to Talaz laagar to protect something called the Fabricator. The thing was, on the way there, someone had picked a fight with her. Scarlett was defenseless to the match, no grasp on her magic and unrefined attacks. She worries if she stays in the guild any longer but doesn’t attempt to remedy, she’d only be a burden or die. So here she was, trying to watch the fighting of others so that she may learn from them and try to train.
Her face, in Scarletts deep focus, looked as though she was enraged. Really, she was just trying to memorize what she saw. Most have not bothered to approach her part because of her height and her expression.

Carmina took a seat that was pretty much next to the bunny woman and she cleared her throat as she returned her gaze to the battle going on in front of them on the stage. "You know a woman with your beautiful features shouldn't be making such an ugly expression right? My name is Carmina and yours?" She wondered if her words would fall only onto deaf ears as the other woman looked highly focused and probably wasn't hearing anything out side of the blows that the fighter were doing to eat other on the stage that she was so heavily watching.
Sat Sep 23, 2023 8:51 am
”Ah, I’m Scarlett. Pleasure to meet you dear.” She turned back to the fight to learn their moves again. Watching the man on stage side stepping the opponents punch and leaning in to deliver his own.
Punching was not to Scarlett’s preference. She would rather serve kicks instead. Still it was best to know all the possible moves she would see and how to dodge them.
Scarlett began to swag back and forth as though she was doing it to note the timing of things.

Carmina didn't say this out loud as it would probably be seen as match fixing or someone thinking that she was in on someone fixing the matches but from the pattern of the movements she had seen with her gift it made the most sense as the out come to the fight as they moved the smaller man did as she said and had went for the dodge to uppercut but will it land?
Sat Sep 23, 2023 1:31 pm
"Sorry 'bout that love. I simply have a lot to learn and what feels like no time to learn it." Scarlett was usually an anxious person but she had the time to soak in the energy of the crowd. Once she has more time to observe those around it, it becomes easier for her to actually interact with them on a more normal basis.
She looked over to Carmina to properly see who she was talking to, indeed also liking what she saw. "Isn't often one as pretty as you approaches me either. People often keep to themselves. So it's a pleasure." Scarlett played back the thing the woman said before her a bit ago one more time in her head, her eyes scrunched as she tried to remember. "What expression exactly do I give? Really I thought I was smiling the whole time..."
Her face was at a lost as she was trying to understand. She turned her body to Carmina to better speak with her, she could hear the girl perfectly even among the roar of the crowd but it was rude to speak awat from people she feels.
"I'm here on a mission to learn how fighting is. I hope to pick up techniques so that people won't keep taking from me."
Sat Sep 23, 2023 4:04 pm
"Why would people not approach you?" She was actually confused to why the woman wasn't popular with the men that often fought and had their testosterone on their highest levels, Carmina thought that this woman would be a target for their high levels of manly hood. Hearing the woman ask what look that she was having Carmina closed her eyes and then perfectly mimicked the look that the bunny woman had been making when she had walked up and then she stopped making the look and smiled at the woman.
"Fighting is an art, some times the strokes of the fight change but the end rarely ever changes one standing and one laying on the ground." Something about her voice was strangely cold and slightly detached sounding and she looked like she had started to look off and away into space not really at anything special or moving just dead space.
Sat Sep 23, 2023 4:22 pm
Scarlett laughed at the face but she was still taken aback that without realizing it, that was her expression this whole time. "My Mum always warned me of how goofy my face could get, that if I was too careless, I wouldn't make any friends. But if I'm honest, I thought I was smiling the whole time. I suppose I really do have a disconnect to my features..." She tugged at her hair from her embarrassment.
Scarlett looked at Carmina and then the direction the girl took to looking at. Staring at it for a moment before looking back at the girl before her and studying her features and trying to get the gist of her thoughts. "Sounds like you've seen more than your fair share of fights. Starting to get stale and stagnant even? This is new to me but I can agree I can see the art in it. I want to see if I could make it my own. Though I would prefer kicks to punches myself. Tell me love, do you fight yourself?"
Sun Sep 24, 2023 6:30 am
"Your face is fine, just was poking fun at you, if you want we can be friends maybe." She was not sure if this demi-human was going to take her up on the offer or not but she was going to still offer it. No one really seemed to be bothering them so that was a plus but she figured that things are not as simple one moment as they are the next. She attempted to reach up and pet the woman on the head.
She looked into the other woman's eyes and then she winked at her. "My gift lets me mimic things magic and other wise. So seeing fighting helps me naturally learn I need to start looking into mimicking some more spells. I know it probably sounds crazy." She started to look away from the woman and she wondered if the woman would even believe her about being a strange knowledge sponge. She knows that her ability is rare or the level of it was rarer for her to have but she knew that maybe she was just not all that in want or need.
Sun Sep 24, 2023 3:32 pm
"Why would a bloke take a liking to me when they are more refine ladies elsewhere? I see the implication of a suitor to be odd, it's simply wasted on me. Even if I could bear their children, I feel I had my fill of raising lil ones." She looked over the crowd in what feels like ages. She was so focused on the fights that she somewhat forgot where she was. And it was only now that she realized the countless staring and glancing come their way, though she would convince herself it was because of her lovely company and not herself.
"Friends would be lovely if you would be so kind as to have me. I didn't figure anyone would talk to me let alone offer a friendship. I am Scarlett Azalea from Guardia Compagnia, it's been a pleasure." Scarlett tilted her head to the side and gave Carmina big smile. One with so much warmth and glee, her eye would shut in her gesture of it. And when the woman reached up to pet her, though it could her by surprise at first, she eagerly bowed forward to accept the affectionate gesture.
"Mimic you say? That sounds very handy when picking up any skill if you were to ask me. I met a bloke just recently who put me through the ringer to, if I remember it right, take my magic as well. If you could do do with just watching alone, then I find your skill to be far more superior. I have magic of my own but I am too much a dunce to know how to use it. I was hoping that watching these fights and seeking guidance somewhere would make me as good as the bloke said I could be. Crossing him makes me worry of the chances of getting into fights I cannot walk away from you see." One could see the sheen and determination in her eyes. But like in many regards in her life, she was lost and did not know where to start.
"I'm sure your quite impressive Carmina."
Sun Sep 24, 2023 8:39 pm
" You seem to have a very low regard for your self. Carmina Evangelista is my name I am not part of any guild." She knows her name probably sounds a bit strange but it was the one she was given at birth as she was a mixed blood woman so she might stand out a little herself but she hoped that they could get along and not have any issues but still was this the right place to be forming friends with people as she has no idea if this woman and her guild are bad, good or just brutes for picking the fighting city to make their home.
"There is someone like me?" This in a way concerned the woman as that means that maybe she wasn't so alone in this magic type or maybe she was about to get hunted down by this same man as this woman was hunted down. She gently took the other woman's hand and she looks at the bunny woman and she looks a bit concerned. "Did he hurt you anywhere?" She was first and foremost trying to make sure that the man hadn't hurt this bunny woman or stolen her innocence from her with  his boorish ways.
Tue Sep 26, 2023 8:40 am
"Ah...I never really....really thought of it that way." Scarlett managed to muster. Her hair all bunched up before her face at this point.
Carmina point out how she was guildless. To be in a place like this alone and with no guild to back you, it seemed terrifying to Scarlett. The rabbit did not manage well alone and so she sought out to find a guild that would take her as soon as she was able. Hoping that in the company of her new found family, she could grow. "You are a brave one to go it alone. I could never. I'm to fretful to be off around this world all alone without at least a guild member to keep me company."
Someone like me? Carmina's response echoed in her mind. The reaction was charming. Full of vitality. "Unless you are a dragon slayer yourself, I would say that he's nothing like you. Nor would I figure he'll ever bother you. The fight was short and he knocked me out before I knew what was coming, but he stayed with me like I wanted. I didn't want to be left alone as I slept."

"Well no guilds interest me so far. There is no perks to being slowed down by having to follow a buddy system of someone else that might just ditch you when you really need them to have your back or they get jealous of you and plan your death." Carmina sounded like she might have had something like that happen to her and that she was speaking from a place of understanding how it felt for that to happen.
Carmina looked at the woman. "If you will allow me I can see how true that really is rather I am a dragon slayer or not." Carmina held up her hand and a ball of every element of magic appeared floating above her hand, she wondered now if the bunny demi-human might not be underestimating her a little. "I am asking you for permission to see your fight with him." Her special eye is looking right at the woman and she will look to see the fight the bunny woman had with the man she spoke of.

The announcer was booming about the next fight to come up soon. Shouting the name of the participants and their histories in the ring. Scarlett didn’t particularly care for such details and so she didn’t bother listening. He did mention that they will get started in around three minutes and that interested her more.
When Carmina held out her hand and the orb would form, Scarlett was at an absolute loss for words. All she could do at first is marvel as the sphere and try to make out the elements and the magic that would go into it. A dazzling magic indeed and she would continue staring, loss into it if the woman hadn’t spoken to her once more. ”You really are impressive. Quite fascinating indeed…” She reached out and held Carmina’s hand. ”If it is only the fight, you’re free to watch. But I was hardly impressive in it, so it would be a shame for you to have to see it.”
Wed Sep 27, 2023 5:52 pm
"I am guessing by how you are talking the fight wasn't all that impressive so I am guessing there was no magic use?" She was a bit disappointed to hear that the woman had a bad fight so she guessed that she shouldn't look into it as it would probably be a bit of a waste of time for her to dive deeper into the woman's fight with this mystery man that fight dragon slayers that she should be weaker than. She wish to know who he was but this bunny woman seemed to have been worried that she would dive deeper so it was probably a small risk to do it.
Tue Oct 03, 2023 6:25 am
When Scarlett finally managed to relax the tension she had, she pulled her hand away from her hair and pointed her finger up to the ceiling. A small spark that looked almost alive as it danced atop her long and pointed nail."I'm sorry to fail you yet again. But I really am not that strong....I hope I won't keep being a disappointment forever...
Tue Oct 03, 2023 11:19 am
Carmina had to kind of wonder how repressed and testosterone heightened those men had to be to be acting like that instead of just enjoying the show they were ruining it if they were actually getting anything out of it. Carmina let go of the other woman as she was probably embarrassed from all the people acting like animals and watching them instead of the current fight that was taking place on the stage in front of them all, which all in all was pretty disrespectful to the fighters giving it their all.
Tue Oct 03, 2023 2:35 pm
"Thanks love, I'm sorry for the melancholy display. I know you aren't here for that." Her ears twitched once more as she was beginning to notice those around her, and her face was becoming a bit crimson like her namesake but she refused to really look at anyone around them. Only shifting her eyes from the woman next to her and the fight before them.
"I always thought I had no talent for that kind of thing, fighting I mean. But I am starting to desire it...I wonder if the practice could give me a bit more confidence." She pulled at the locks of her hair as she thought about her lack of self-esteem.
Thu Oct 05, 2023 7:52 am
She heard the fight starting to take a turn and looked toward the stage as a strong spell is used to try and hurt the other man that was trying to go toe to toe with a guy that was clearly out of the fight already and their was a chance that they were gonna get murdered out there and Carmina wonders why they made this mismatched fight happen.
Sat Oct 07, 2023 5:25 pm
”It’s….it’s…madness….”, was all that she could begin to utter. She was not entirely there anymore as the fear was driving her out of her senses. Scarlett began to sniffer, her ears twitching to hear out what was happening in the distance.
They stopped when they finally setting on a voice laughing, someone was talking about how this was what he deserved for not taking the offer to rig the match. “Now well, he can just die.”
Mon Oct 09, 2023 7:21 am
Carmina is a bit dumbfounded at the fact the man moved and fought so well that he was willing to take it on all on his own but even stone walls can crack and now they were watching the fighter now really showing why he was here and not just stepping down or falling back from his morals it was fully now on.
Wed Nov 01, 2023 12:10 pm
Her ears were often twitching and turning directions. Until she could settle on who to fixate one. Some of the voices of the men just around were groaning viciously. Growling about how none of this was according to plans.
Scarlett did her best to focus, taking deep breaths so that she may calm down. All the nose and rowdiness, though obviously would be expected, was not taking a turn in which she felt comfortable in.
She tapped the shoulder of Carmina before getting up from her seat to find a place more quite to stay for a bit. Her first thought being that maybe being outside would suit her best right now. The air would at least do her some good.

Sun Nov 05, 2023 2:36 pm
” Sorry to bother you..” She uttered, her tired eyes gazing at Carmina’s. She gave a weak smile before fidgeting and looking back outward. ” I know you want to watch the show, so don’t let me hold you. I could suggest you hold off betting though if that was your fancy. Sounds to me like the last fight was rigged and I’d hate for you to be bothered with it…“
Scarlett walked toward a ledge that made for a decent place to sit as she gathered her thoughts. The cool air was already doing wonders.
Sun Nov 05, 2023 4:16 pm
Carmina smirked and she reached into her back and pulls out some sweets she had gotten in town that she had heard that were good and help when one feels like they need a pick me up from a long day of hard work and forcing yourself to be what you aren't and she offered them to the bunny woman and she looked out at the view and she wonders if there was more to this area than first meets the eye.
