Seph gasped for air briefly concentrating instead on maintaining her balence rather than catching her breath for a moment "Ooh not a bad shot there but need to be a bit more foreceful than that" she grinned swooping down towards his right extending her blade slightly to aim for his side while she passed "Fighting alone in the wild isn't that bad unless you happen to stumble across other people like bandits with alarmingly high skill levels in comparison to the other things around you" she shrugged.
Hebal giggled remembering the phrase Zadina had said "Now where have I hearded that little saying before about kupo nuts... must have been from a moogle advert sometime but theres no harm in asking all the same. Anyway a good cook can improvise to make new dishes or invent their very own unique ones so you're cook should totally try it out"

Felina leaned forward slightly waiting to see if Mari was going to get up again "Yeah a tie is rare in any kind of duel or fight really unless interrupted. Maybe I should take up judging, I could totally do the whole fair and politically unbiased thing despite my family status" she joked as she ran her fingers along the couch "Cid probably just wants to be somewhere close to the screens you know. That or sample the coffee"

Oassu chuckled "I bet you would but I doubt you'd like seeing the carnage of combat day in day out even censored like this" he chuckled "And you would be totally biased in this tourney currently since it's purely for your benefit" he whispered.
Itaka spun and parried Seph's blade slicing at her before she flew away "Unh well I don't normally resort to my feet in combat" he groaned a little tired "Still I don't know wouldn't like to come across a tonberry or behemoth alone, need a white mage to keep spirits and stamina up in long treks" he said.
Zadina nodded looking out the window for a sign of Satoshi now his meal was almost finished "Awww where is she? Needs to hurry up but you're right I'll ask Cevall to try some new dishes if I ever return home for a while" he said.
Mari rolled to her feet her ankles aching exhausted before desperately blocking the already focused Arian choosing to club him with her sheathe briefly to give her some breathing room. Arian swiftly recovered from the minor blow and leapt into another attack

Hebal giggled reaching over and patting Zadina on the shoulder "Hey don't get worked up if your meaning Satoshi, that poor little moogle messenger is probably running as fast as those little legs can carry" she tutted leaning back resisting the urge to put her feet up on the table "Is Cevall the head cheff person then in the house? Is she one of those stereotypical old lady cooks?"
Seph groaned bending her back and narrowly avoiding the strike "Ow remind me not to do too many moves like that Itaka. But I have been able to manage in the past, just need to know when to run and hide. Plus it also helps to learn the good old fashioned art of first aid, you know the stuff normal people used before white mages became so popular" she smirked.

Felina blushed and slowly nodded her head "Thats true but I meant in general you know and although I don't enjoy seeing people get hurt I am a white mage so wouldn't faint or be too frightened or anything like that, braver than I look" she smiled weakly "Though I guess on the down side to unbiased judges, Mari can't be looked at more favourably since she knows one or two" she whispered back.

Oassu shrugged "They might not be the ones judging this match besides it's their job not to be biased so wouldn't count on it" he said patting Cid on his shoulder while he sipped his coffee.
Zadina nodded "Yeah you're probably right" he said ordering another drink in the meantime "And yes Cevell is the head chef but she's not especially old, little bit older than father would be but not as old as Uncle Elorin" he said
Itaka chuckled "Running isn't half as fun though but first aid is still not as effective as white mages unless you have a proper alchemist or doctor helping you" he said stopping to see if Seph was ok after twisting like that.
Rather than retreat from Arian's attack Mari leapt into it aiming her knee at his stomach. Arian grinned as his flaming blade scorched her body where it struck her but Mari persevered through the pain to unleash powerful slice across his face followed by another slice in the opposite direction across his face. Mari stepped back from her dazed opponent before unleashing a final flurry of attacks that battered his helmet rendering him unconscious.

Seph smirked turning straight back around and whacked Itaka across the chest with her tail seeing that he hesitated "Heh got you there. First aid is enough to keep you alive, and then if you lay low a little you'll be fully recovered in no time just with a less pretty scar a white mage would leave. But I guess I should get moving towards the arena now, feel free to escourt me" she sighed seeing the board just above her head change to say the current match was over.
Hebal grinned and nodded her head understaningly "ok ok I got it, your cook is like between middle aged and starting to get old I think... about 160ish in viera years I think. That is if your uncle is as old as I think he looks. So is your dad that much younger than your brother and do they look alike" she curiously asked.

Felina grinned and gave a quiet round of applause seeing the results of the match on screen rather surprised that it had ended so suddenly "Yay go Mari beating her opponant like that" she cheered giving Oassu's leg a squeeze "Doesn't matter whether they are judging or not now, the fight is over so now she just needs to find out which of the remaining 6 will be fighting her next. Hopefully not Gil, its unlucky enough him and Seph being up against eachother staight away"
Satoshi meanwhile appeared from somewhere across the table and snuck up behind Hebal's seat wondering how long it would take her to notice her presence or for Zadina to day anything"

Oassu nodded frowning as he watched a smiling Mari collapse from exhaustion while medics cleared her opponent out "Hopefully she'll be alright for the next fight, every minute for her is a battle with her condition and that was no easy fight for her" he said
Zadina snickered noting Satoshi sneak up on Hebal "Well no they don't look especially similar least according to my memory but then again my father wasn't a traveller like Uncle Elorin" he said "Never went on big pilgrimages to dangerous places he focused on running the country" he said.
Itaka frowned rubbing his chest "Hey no fair was just giving you a moment to recover" he grunted "Still sure lets get going" he said seeing that Gil and Enkidu had already disappeared somewhere "Still too many scars will leave you feeling like an old man before your time" he said

Seph laughed quietly as she flew back to Itaka's side and slid her arms around his waist "Oh I'm sorry but its not good to hesitate too much in a fight all the same" she answered sticking her tongue out while she rubbed the spot where she hit him last "As for the scar issue, you would be surprised at just how hot some women find guys with battle scars to be"
Hebal smiled playing with her fork still unaware that Satoshi was directly behind her "Whatcha snickering at? Was the difference between your dad and your uncle really that great? Though didn't he think to become Elorin's guardian? He did have a few like the other summoners didn't he"

Felina frowned watching some of the other medics move over to Mari "Hopefully it will only take a few potions to get her moving and well but still... that is not good to be so tired after so little time. It worries me in general that it may cause problems in a proper fight" she mumbled as she bit her finger.
Satoshi meanwhile smirked and waited for Hebal to finish talking before placing her hands on Hebal's shoulder and shouted "boo" at her ear.

Oassu shook his head "I wouldn't worry, after all you'll be there for her in a real fight to keep her strength up and she probably won't face such difficult opponents as him in the wilds" he said stroking Felina's hand
Zadina giggled seeing Satoshi go "Boo" "Hi there Miss Satoshi was worried you got lost for a minute but be nice to Miss Hebal don't want to hurt her ears" he said.
Itaka shrugged "I'll take my health over women still that wasn't a fight just a friendly spar" he said stretching "Still you feel ready for your fight?" he asked as he returned the training weapons to the armoury.

Seph smirked deciding against mentioning that in demon culture scarring was very easily caused "Well yeah, I don't mind if you stay relatively scar free but just figured I should point out that its not always such a bad thing should it happen. But am I ready? Not really but this is about as ready as I'm going to get" she shrugged as she handed over her weapons.
Hebal jumped up almost whacking Satoshi in the chin in surprise "Ooh heya Satoshi when did you get here? But no fair, it's my job to do the surprising thing" she moaned disappointed she had been caught off guard. "Never mind take a seat a little bit or we could go shopping and you know where we are right?"

Felina sighed glancing down at her hand "Well... maybe. But I can't exactly be there all the time to help out, you guys keep me so busy all the time its sometimes hard to divide up my attention as to who needs healing and how quickly it needs doing. But anyway enough of that I'm sure Zadina and even Hayate could take care of Mari's tiredness if it starts to show in a battle" she added trying not to be too negative "Just this fight then its Seph and Gil's, apparently someone in the bar from what I overheared put 100,000gil on Seph because of how low the odds were"

Satoshi shook her head and stuck her tongue out at Hebal "Well thats no fun if nobody else can do the surprising back and you can't really comment too much Zadina since you chose not to mention my appearence when I snuck up" she laughed pulling up an extra chair "Yep I teleported outside and saw, plus read the letter. Good choice in going to the moogle district"
