THE LIBRARY.

[ this guy's pretty buff for a bookworm — or, at least, someone with a lot of books. he's reading mostly books on recent history events, but he has another stack of lighter novels and literature next to him, too. there aren't that many books, but it's taking him a very long time to get through them, staring at each page for rather longer than it should take.

every once in a while, he gets up to shelve a book that he's only halfway through or stretch his legs. his colors mark him as a mercenary, too. you could question his presence here, but try not to raise your voice. it is a library, after all. ]

THE UGLY JACKAL.

[ methodically smashing his way through dummies, and occasionally engaging in a spar. he doesn't talk at all, which most of the other fighters don't mind. they're not a very talkative bunch, all in all, but he doesn't look totally unapproachable. ask for a spar, or try to get him to say something. ]

OUT AND ABOUT, OR CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE.

[ nic's usually exploring the city, trying to find a way out, or scouring the first level of the castle, always with his sword. ]

At least kicks aren't likely to slice open her belly on accident. Zoe's not used to specific duels or rules of engagement-- after all, she's a soldier and a thief, and both did what they had to-- so she plays until someone yields. The kick, thus, is not entirely unexpected, even if his vaguely surprised expression is. She steps back just half a foot and tries to grab his foot and twist to knock him over.

[dogtag]

He can't avoid the grab, so he lets the twist give him momentum. Nic shuffles back a step before launching into a sharper high kick and swinging into an elbow strike.

Now that's not something Zoe expected. She'd expected him to either resist, or to fall over. How he's keeping on his feet, she has no idea. Thus, though she can lean back just enough to avoid the foot to the face, the elbow takes her off guard, and she takes it in the side before she can sidestep.

Now, wincing and dropping to a non-offensive stance, she just hopes he didn't hit hard enough to break anything, since he seems to be going all out. "Hold up a sec," she adds, in case he doesn't recognize the "break".

[dogtag]

There have been worse fights involving him. Even if the setting is different, and his abilities aren't the same, he can, for the most part, handle it.

He sees her move out of a fighting stance. It takes another second for him to follow, but he straightens back up to his unimpressive height and waits. He isn't sure what she's saying, but he'll wait before continuing.
