Chel was beginning to hate Allan and Simon for this constant barrage of sparring duties. She wanted to be out in the world! Exploring things! Going on missions! Hell at this point she would even accept haunted house duty over this crap. It was one thing to be out on the field hunting baddies, but it was another to constantly be fighting with your comrades.
Still, it wasn't like she had anywhere else to go. Without clearance there was no way they were letting her off the island (she'd already spent her vacation time with Evan at the mall earlier this month). So the next best thing was fighting people.
She took to the first dude she saw and yelled, "Yo studly, let me kick your a**." That was about it.

Lex didn't necessarily dislike sparring, he just preferred to do other things. Like his work. Though, sparring was a necessary part of the rest of his rather short life on this island, a requirement to keep his body and bond healthy. Practicing and honing skills was much better done on another Hunter rather than a field dummy.
So, when a shock of vaguely familiar pink hair issued a challenge, he had to smile and nod. "Sure, sure. Chel, right?" He asked, offering a hand towards the girl.
He needed to spar, really. After the last mission and all the transformation jazz, he needed to be more prepared.

"Yeah. Don't be offended, but I already forgot your name. I'm s**t with names, but faces I remember. Specially yours." Letters and numbers were not Chel's strong suit. Pictures were good.
She summoned her bow and said, "Hope you're ready."
If he wasn't- oops. Chel had already fired a barrage of arrows by the time her sentence ended, and it wasn't going to stop mid-air.

"Lex." The man replied, drawing his pistol the second he saw Chel summon her bow. He was no novice to fighting, but he usually had the advantage of fighting someone who was using close ranged weapons. This would be a challenge in the skill of aim.
He rolled back and took an arrow to the hip, the shield deflecting it. He fired his own round of shots at her, cheeky grin alight on his face. "I'm flattered you remember my face. Try not to aim for it, if you don't mind."

"Lex," she parroted back to him. "I'll try to remember that." Fortunately for Chel, she had the advantages of both melee and ranged weapons.
She moved in close mid-fire and slashed across his torso, rolling under his arm and shooting his backside from the ground. Well, it technically wasn't his face.

"Stud works too." He quipped, grimacing at her little maneuver. ******** did he hate working in tight range. He was a large man, not the most dexterous and agile person on Earth. Whirling around he fired a few shot at her as he kept to a mid-range.
"Where'd you learn to move like that?"

"Uhhh Bix? He's the albino bro in sun. Mostly on my own though. Quick on my feet." Chel used a tree to cover herself from some of the bullets and then peeked out to fire a quick arrow.
The better question was, "Where'd you learn to be so slow? You got feet and you a'int that old. Use 'em." Nobody ever said Chel had to be polite.

"...hm." Lex made a dissatisfied face, shooting at the tree Chel was hiding behind. She did have a point. His feet were, essentially, nailed to the ground when he fought. He could run, certainly, and duck and dive and weave an all that.
"I'm no James Bond." He shrugged, stooping behind a rock now. "Though I suppose I should become one."

Chel stayed hidden behind her tree, adjusting her loose grip on her bow. She peeked around the trunk and was greeted by the sight of an empty training field. Crap- where did he get to?
She took a chance and emerged from the side of the tree, knocking a single arrow and walking around carefully. "Aw cmon' now. Don't play pill bug."

He'd taken her advice and used his feet for once, creeping around a few rocks to the point where he was flanking her now, and pounded the trigger a few times from her right. "Just working on my Mr. Bond." He smarmed before ducking behind the rocks again.

Chel laughed and said, "Trust me man, you a'int no bond. You're more like Daniel Craig." What she meant by that was a mystery. Chel was just shooting the s**t.
"So what's your deal dude? You got a story or are you gonna clam up like all the other lifers?" Well, not Kylee. She'd been somewhat open.
Still, Lex looked friendly enough. The same look that Jack had, being tall and good looking, but not as harsh a stare as Jack had. She preferred Jack's though. It WOULD be nice to have a lifer not cut her off instantly though.

"Depends on what you want to hear." Lex shrugged, spraying a line of defensive fire at the pink haired Sun. "I'm not an open book - most of us aren't. You have to ask questions to get the answers you want. You can't just expect me to start telling you everything without being asked."
Aloof, as always. He never liked revealing too much about himself, not even to the people he was closest to. So, in short, Chel would be disappointed to find yet another Life Hunter closing their doors.

Chel crossed her arms. "Man that s**t ain't fair. Why the ******** can't you just start talkin' bout yourself? There some kind of secret oath you gotta swear not to talk about yourself when you hit up the life division?"
She groaned, grabbing her bow and taking aim once more. "Fine, have it your way grumpygills. I'll just stick to 'how about that weather?'" Was Chel a little bitter? Chel was a little bitter. "So how about that weather, flagpole?"

Lex shrugged, firing a few whimsical bullets at her. "It's not that I'm unwilling to give you info - you'll just have to seek it out actively. We can't really just make conversation about anything. Death division is always watching, after all." He chuckled a bit.
"The weather is fine, just dreary as usual. Fifty percent chance of acid rain, with a high bullshit warning. What's the local news looking like."

"Yo what are you gonna tell me that death doesn't already know?" This- this was the reason she hated Deus Ex so much. Everyone was always in a piss poor mood, hoarding secrets to themselves and, in general, having a bad time of it. Where were the smiles? Where were the people having fun? Even since day one she'd been tired of everyone's attitudes.
Not that she would ever voice it, of course. "Marcus told me 'bout himself. He outranks you. So what's the deal with you?"
