He was lying out on the training field, in a relatively good impression of October, Nash on his back with his arms pillowed beneath his head. His dark head of hair was spread around him like a cloud, not tied back, black and green spilling over the long sleeves.
He was restless. Sitting around doing nothing was not Nash's style and never had been, but there was no one around to do anything with.
So here he was.
Bored.

Nash would feel a bump to the bottom of one booted foot, and should he look to see just what had caused it, he'd see a tall, leggy brunette staring down at him with her arms crossed over her side zipped jacket. "Wha's wrong buttercup? Dinah still refusing to give you her blessing?" Or any semblance of acceptance of affection whatsoever.

Nash cracked open his eyes just enough to see who it was that was pestering him, then closed them again.
"She'll accept me one day," he said knowingly. "It'll just take some more wheedling. What are you doing here?"

"You think so?" She chuckled. "Well, you've got determination, that's for sure." It seemed an impossible dream, but who was she to try to pop it? Besides, maybe he would wear Dinah's walls thin enough to crack through. Stranger things had happened on this island. "Moi? I'm looking for someone to spar against. Training dummies are boring as ********." Gaze flicking in that direction, she curled her lip at the line of them before looking back down at Nash. "What do you say?"

"I've known Alice a long time," said Nash knowingly. "And Dinah's - well, she's obviously not the same as her sister, but maybe with Alice's help I can wear her down a little and voila!" He made a vague waving gesture with his hand. "We'll be besties for life."
Soleil was given a pointed look.
"I say...fine, I guess," said Nash, and climbed to his feet, yawning. "I guess I can try and kick your a**."

"I've no intention of making it easy." Least not in this. Stepping back, that smile still bright on on pretty features, Soleil summoned Bjorn to her hands in a brief flicking of acid green runes along duel blades. She was still getting used to the scythe, how it handled. It was heavier than she would have thought it to be, and it made it difficult to move quickly. She supposed the heft of it, adding weight to each blow, was a fair trade off... "Let's play then, oui?" With that she'd swing, bringing the blades down in a diagonal arc. HP: 40 DMG: 2 CHG: 1/3

"Good," said Nash airily. "Easy is boring. I like working for things."
Unlike his good for nothing older brother, who preferred when he never had to work for things. Nash gave a low whistle of approval at Soleil's scythe, then summoned his own weapon, the whip slithering through the grass like - well, a centipede.
Acheri rasped a sound of approval.
The first of Soleil's swings caught Nash just a little on the shoulder. He staggered a little, then changed his grip on the whip, snaking it back and snapping it forward, aiming for Soleil's legs.
"So what's your interest in the fair lady Dinah, hm?"

The guy had range. Soleil staggered as the--could it even be called a whip? It looked like a ******** centipede--struck her across the legs, and threw her balance off. She managed to recover it by smacking the post of her scythe into the ground and pushing off. " My interest?" She scoffed, grinning. "The girl is savage as ********. It's amazing." Need there be any other reason? Well, she was a cutie to boot, but everyone here was pretty attractive. Still grinning, she brought her scythe around again, a wide, looping slice aimed for his midsection. HP: 43 DMG: 5 CHG: 2/3

He kind of wished he had a less cumbersome weapon; the whip was, after all, good for range, and good for just sheer intimidation factor because of its size - but when it came to closer combat, it was all but useless, and this was a very frustrating fact.
Especially since Soliel's scythe came swinging in a very deliberate sideswipe that had Nash wheezing.
"Oh, she's savage all right," said Nash with a gasp as he struggled upright again. He gathered the whip and snapped it out again, trying to aim for somewhere on those long legs of Soleil's again. "Alice is too. Not quite as brutal, though," he added, with the sigh of one long suffering.

The snap of the whip sent insectoid mandibles knocking against her leg, and age jerked back with a small hop. Still, the grin lingered, even grew a little at the mention of Alice. "That one seems like trouble," she said whimsically, chuckling to herself. She took another swing at him, but the blades hissed past without touching him. "So how about you? What's your interest in her?" She didn't really care, her admiration for Dinah was just that, admiration. But it was an amusing line of questioning, all the same. HP: 41 DMG: 0 CHG: don't remember

Soleil's scythe missed him this time, but just barely, the blade narrowly escaping scraping across Nash's torso. He hastily slid to the side, trying to maneuver his way away from the direct line of it, and swept the whip towards her with a clatter of metal.
And missed, spectacularly. Unsurprising.
"The twins? Or either? I knew both of them before coming to the island," said Nash, dragging his weapon back towards him, feeling slightly breathless. "Alice and I were buddies online, we met on some forum. I didn't realize she was a twin until later, and Dinah thinks I'm not good enough for her, so I totally need to fix that."

"Well, I meant Dinah, but that's pretty neat I suppose." How often did that happen? Knowing different people that were also recruited as a hunter. Soleil wouldn't have guessed it to be a very common occurrence, but then really, what did she know? < Soleil...> Full lips pursed, and she glanced down at the scythe in her hands as it rumbled up at her. Bjorn never said much, but she could feel what he felt. In this case; eagerness, excitement, and impatience. Alright. It cost nothing to give the weapon what he wanted. The color at the tips of each blade flared brightly, and the air above them began to waver, like asphalt on a summer's day. When she swung, putting all her strength behind it, the weapon burned on contact. Painful and altogether unpleasant. HP: 41 DMG: 15 CHG: 0/3 | 1/2

He had not been expecting that. Nash found himself thrown backwards, the burn of the weapon a searing thing in spite of the FEAR shield that protected him, and he staggered, lost his footing, and collapsed onto the ground, gasping for breath.
"Ouch. Well, damn that's impressive," Nash wheezed, as he levered himself back up again, swaying a bit. He put a hand to his midsection, wincing. "That's some hot s**t right there."
He grinned over at Soleil, then readied his whip again, spinning it out.
"So. Are you planning on wooing Dinah or something? Or do you just think she's a badass?"

Landing that hit had been altogether too satisfying, and she was grinning fiercely at the other trainee as he tumbled backwards. That was ******** brilliant. Bjorn rumbled in her mind, pleased and proud. Then the whip was coming at her again, and before she had a chance to dodge the legs of the bug-like weapon her slamming into one of her arms as she tried to deflect it. Not hard, exactly, but hard enough to make her side step. "Doesn't seem like she's the wooing type," Soleil offered, amused. "If I thought she'd be interested, I'd be all up in her business, but naw." She shrugged. "I don't think she'd appreciate being pursued." With that, she stepped in again, swinging down at him while he was still on the ground. HP: 31 DMG: 1 CHG: 1/3
