Roch'd heard the name before... somewhere. He was almost positive it was a reaper. But he had no jackin' clue WHO Sparrow was. So there he stood in entry hall of the Reaper Dorm, bellowing at the top of his lungs, "SPARROW!! GET YOUR JACKIN' a** OUT HERE!!"
His guitar was already in his hand. He was going to jackin' KILL the b*****d that touched his Xiu.
Oh, Roch, Roch, Roch...

Sparrow had no idea who was yelling at him from down below. In fact, before he'd heard his name being bellowed at the top of someone's lungs, he'd been focused on solving a particularly difficult mathematics problem.
Then it was suddenly ""SPARROW!! GET YOUR JACKIN' a** OUT HERE!!"
He blinked, startled out of his musing. Pushing back his chair, Sparrow (forgetting he had a pair of reading glasses perched on the edge of his nose and that he had taken off his suit coat), he stepped out of his room and made his way down the hall, towards the entrance.
The boil standing there was unfamiliar - and holding a rather large and imposing looking guitar.
Sparrow eyed him curiously.
"Yes?" he asked him pleasantly.

"I'm going to kick your a**," Roch said, even more angered as he saw the classy looking reaper appear. This? This guy had agreed to fight his little Xiu? What the jack had he been thinking? Appearances really DID lie, didn't they?
"You and me, the gymnasium, in ten minutes. I'll be waiting, glasses boy," he said, his hand tightening on the neck of his guitar. "And before you ask, hitting a guy with glasses doesn't mean jack to me." Other than to hit faster than the jacker, he added silently as he walked away. That glasses wearing vampire from back home had taught him a LOT about getting hits in first. Or... y'know, trying.
Vampires were really fast.

Sparrow had no idea what on earth was going on.
"Er," he started to say, a bewildered expression crossing his face, but the other reaper had already stalked away, apparently heading towards the gymnasium.
Glasses boy? Sparrow thought, as he hesitated only a moment before heading back into his room. I don't wear glasses...oh.
He'd forgotten about the reading glasses. Sliding them off, he set them on top of the books strewn across his desk, frowning slightly as he rested a hand on his hip, gloved fingers absently tapping the desktop.
The boil had been unfamiliar; Sparrow had not recognized him in the slightest, nor had he understood what in Jack's name he had been talking about. He debated on whether or not to actually go to the seemingly prearranged meeting, but to not show up seemed quite ill advised - and not particularly gentlemanlike.
Which was why Sparrow found himself at the indoor gymnasium ten minutes later, suit jacket buttoned in place, no glasses, and his neatly laced up boots, which clicked on the glass above the pool beneath his feet.
"I'm afraid there's been a slight misunderstanding," he said, once he was in hearing distance of the other. "I don't quite know what it is you have against me."

"You FOUGHT with my Xiu," Roch said, his eyes narrowing. "What in the jack were you thinking agreeing to fight her? For even THINKING of hitting her I'm going to kick your a**. It's nice and simple, got it?"
With that said he lunged forward, brandishing his guitar like a baseball bat. He swung, but jackdammit, it'd been so long since his last spar that he missed.

Tan brows rose.
"I fought with - " Sparrow started to say, the bewilderment growing slightly, but he had no time to even speak. The boil had thrown himself forward, the guitar in his hands swinging towards him like a javelin. Without even thinking, Sparrow thrust his hand out, black smoke billowing from his palm. There was a horrible scream of metal on metal, Sparrow having thrown the scythe up just in time. The boil's guitar had smashed against it, and now they stood, face to face, both of them with their weapons pressed against each other.
"I am still quite perplexed," said Sparrow, frowning. "Who are you, exactly? Are you talking about Xiu Ying? She asked me - quite nicely, I might add - to teach her to fight in exchange for some lessons in cooking."
He pushed hard, swinging the scythe and the boil backwards, Sparrow leaping nimbly back several feet.
"If that's the case," he said, holding the smoking weapon in both gloved hands. "Then I'm afraid it's really none of your business."

Roch was shoved back, but he used the momentum to twist in a circle, holding his guitar by the neck and using its weight to speed up the spin (somewhat like a discus thrower) and SLAM into the other reaper hard with the guitar body.
"Like hell it isn't," he snarled. "Let her learn on dummies or other ghouls. She's got no experience in fighting, much less someone with a jackin' seven foot long scythe!"

Sparrow lifted a brow.
"Care to elaborate a bit?" he said loftily, idly spinning the black scythe around in his hand as though he were discussing something as calm and mundane as the weather. "Just because she doesn't have any experience fighting doesn't mean she shouldn't try her hand at it. In fact, it should be a reason to learn."
The boil's guitar slammed into his side, sending Sparrow staggering. Slightly winded, he let a scowl cross his face, breathing heavily. After a second, however, he pulled his calm expression back. With a quick swipe of his arms, the scythe swung out again, catching the boil around the neck and dragging him forward a few steps.
"Methinks someone just has a wee crush~"

"I'm sayin' she shouldn't have to know how to fight at all," Roch growled, but a faint flush crept up the back of his neck. Telling her he had a crush was one thing, having this guy that he really didn't like--and who had willingly FOUGHT against little Xiu--talk about it was another thing entirely!
He swung again, catching a glancing blow on the other boy.

"Why not?" asked Sparrow innocently, wincing as the boil's guitar glanced over his side, sending him staggering sideways again. The reddening of his opponent's face had not escaped the reaper's view, however.
Aha. Seems I might be right.
"So what," said Sparrow, gathering the scythe in his hands. "You're here to defend her honor, are you?"
He darted around behind the boil, swung the black weapon out, and landed a blow to the other's back.

Roch twisted, getting away from the scythe as quickly as he could. The other reaper had a longer reach, which was impressive, but he wasn't about to lose. Not in this case.
"Are you sayin' she doesn't have honor to defend?" Roch asked coldly as he went for his next attack. "Because if you say so, I jackin' will kill you."
He smacked the guy with the flat of his guitar, then shifted it in his hold.

Sparrow's brows rose, then drew together, the playfully innocent expression on his face melting away to a hard smirk.
"My dear man," he said. "I am the last person for you to accuse of thinking Xiu has no honor."
The scythe swung out, clashing with the guitar with a horrible scream of metal on metal, Sparrow pushing it until he could throw the other boil awya from him.

Roch's teeth showed, but it definitely wasn't a smile. He twisted his body again, building up momentum, then swung at the other boil. That twisting move of his seemed rather... dangerous. It caught the other boil in the same side as the first time.

It was getting serious now; Sparrow's expression had turned hard, irritation flaring in his veins.
"You seem to be laboring under the misconception that it is only you who cares for the welfare of Xiu Ying," he said, wincing at the hit to his side, staggering a few steps. "Don't make that mistake."
He disappeared in whirl of black smoke and reappeared mere inches from the boil, slamming his scythe into his stomach.

Roch grunted as he was thrown back. "Did. You. Hurt. Her?" he snarled, catching himself in a crouch. "Did you hit her hard? Did you slice at her with your scythe? DID YOU HURT HER?" he bellowed as he raced forward. His guitar came up, slamming into the other boil's chest at the very thought.
