Nicodemus had still been 'off' days after the mission had been over. Cass had considered a lot of things to see if it would help - leaving him unsummoned for a few days, leaving him summoned for a few days, even some practice against one of the training dummies had gone into play. All that had resulted in was the hunter wearing herself out and Nicodemus still sounding tired inside of her head. Caelius had said something about FEAR deprivation, which was about when she started pondering what her options on that were.
Which was probably why it wasn't fun of her to have interrupted potential cuddle time with Marcus with an outburst about a battle. Yeah, there were a few people she could have asked about it, but he'd been right there when the thought had struck her and her brain to mouth pause time was limited in comparison to those of others.
And thus, that was how they'd gotten to where they were now, Cass tapping the back of the gunblade against an open palm with a slightly worried face. Yeah, she didn't really enjoy having the headvoice griping at her, yet.... she didn't like the implications of him suddenly being nothing more than exhausted.
"Hey, I appreciate you doing this with me." the mist hunter bid to her sparring-partner/boyfriend/was he her boyfriend-oh-god-was-he-is-yes-no-Oh-snaps-she-wasn't-sure. "I'll make it up to you with whatever you want when this is done."

Marcus had been a bit taken by surprise at the request to spar with her. They had been perfectly relaxed
In bed
…yes in bed, watching a movie and not doing anything remotely sexual when she had up and asked him to fight. It wasn’t bad per say, but it was just out of the blue. But when she’d given him puppy dog eyes how could he have resisted her? She was just too cute to deny. Plus she had said she’d pay him back. He liked that offer. Mostly since it meant he could con her into more cuddle time. The air was a bit chilled, but once they started they probably wouldn’t notice.
“It’s okay, I’ll just make you hang out with me later tonight. Cuddle, make out, the usual. “ A grin, and eye brows waggled at her.
You wanna use those protection charms Clarice gave you don’t you?
Wait- I- No Dis.
Surrreeeeeee.
Dis teasing him, Marcus held the sword out. Melee was what he hoped. The idea of bullets in his head wasn’t appealing.
You worry to much. FEAR shield thing remember.
Still hurts.
Sucks to be you then.
So much for moral support. “All right Cass, come at me.”

Cass wasn't sure if she was mastering her puppy dog eyes or if the boy was just extra receptive to them. Either way, she enjoyed getting to see the look on his face when he tried to resist the eyes and the cute face. The eyebrow waggle earned a slightly coy 'Oh really' look back, as though she was trying to play innocent. Yeah, she was about as innocent as a puppy with a leather boot in its mouth. But still, it was worth the attempt.
Still, Cass seemed to pick up on the importance of Melee, and frankly, her sad upper body strength said she'd need to protect herself with it more often, taking the gun she had in one hand and tucking it into her belt to keep it out of her hands.
You will need to learn to wield both at once eventually, Cassandra... Nicodemus said, his voice barely a hush in her mind. Cass's brows furrowed together, eyes flicking up towards her left temple. <> she pressed back to him before readjusting her hands on the gunblade.
"Me first? Why, what a gentleman!" she beamed, not really teasing, but still moving forward, using her small body as a fulcrum to turn on with a swing - something she had to do with her lesser strength to build up momentum....

And of course, Cass was never one to hold back. If they were not sparring he would she do that. It was something he adored about her, her way of just bouncing right into things, sure it made him a bit worried at times but he also adored it about her. Kept him on his toes at least.
“A gentleman always lets the lady go first, even if he thinks she’ll in all probability kick his a** somehow.” He smiled, as Dis said she would start by spanking his a** not kicking it. He blushed, even as she swung out. As she got in a hit, Marcus hissed.
“Damn!” The area stung, and Dis was laughing. “You hit me hard and fast Cass but I like to hit just as hard back.” A flicker of blue from Dis and Macus swung up, wincing as the last hit burned with the movement.

"If I kick your a**, I'll kiss everything better." she 'taunted', flinching away even when he struck her in turn, a fairy even blow if she said so herself, though the spot easily began to throb and she made a note to be thankful that Nicodemus had her covered for this. At least for the 'not dying by the hand of the boy' thing. That would of really put a halt on their relationship.
...
...
And possibly his sanity, but either way, she stepped back to recover from the blow before striking again..and missing horribly.
"Damn! You hit me so hard you threw my game off!" She laughed.

Marcus kind of didn’t want to hurt Cass that badly, but at the same time-
Wanna win.
Dis had a very good point, Marcus wanted to win. What kind of a boyfriend-are-we-a-couple-I’m-not-really-sure-boyrfriend would he be if he lost? How was he supposed to keep up his macho man ego if Cass kicked his a**.
Spoiler: He wouldn’t.
He debating hitting on her while sparring but if they wanted a real match he couldn’t do that. Because ******** no he’d would kill himself before hitting on any of those bastards. Plus she might just stop fighting and they would make out and while not bad, it would certainly be embarrassing to be found locked in an embrace playing tonsil hockey.
But, even so, the idea she would kiss him better had merit. He wondered if that was part of the reward for sparring with her. Because oh that sounded very appealing once they got back to the dorms. Smirking as she missed, Marcus inked at her. “You sure it’s not just my devious charm and dashing good looks?” What was that about NOT flirting?
Yeah that was a stupid rule in the first place. Flirt fighting was going to be much more fun. As he went to strike he missed, and smiled. "Or maybe your good looks keep distracting me."

Really, the most 'positive' thing about Nicodemus's situation was that he didn't put up half as much of a fuss about her and the touchy-feeling snuggliness that happened with the boy. Still, it seemed that flirting while fighting wasn't..entirely out of the question with the witty retort from the Moon Hunter, her brows lifting ever so slightly.
"Well, that'd explain a lot." she chimed back, "It must be like a magnet thing going on, we're both just so hot our attacks repel each other~"
It was completely meant to be a tease, but even as she swung again she missed the other hunter, pouting the smallest bit. "So if you could just stop being so damn attractive for a minute so I could hit you, that'd probably help."

Oh Cass, if only you knew. Marcus was not only trying to focus but Dis had gone and decided to start challenging him by making remarks about Cass. And their relationship. And something weird about protection charms. He wasn't sure what that was about about but it sounded dirty.
Damn perverted vampire.
"Sorry, Cass, I can't help it. Every time I see you, I know I have got to look my best. After all, a pretty woman needs a handsome man doesn't she?" Another swing and smirk. "How else can I seduce you?"

Stop flirting. Nicodemus protested in the Mist Hunter's head, her eyes flicking up to her left temple and shrugging mentally. <>
Yes, we'll have it when you two start getting comfortable again.
Yeah, he'd definitely try to moodkill after the fact, she could see that happening... probably because he already did try. Not successfully, but still he did try. It probably didn't help that Marcus had a way of unintentionally making her swoon.
Or was it intentional?
Either way, a faint blush came over her face at his return quip.
"You're just saying that!" she retorted, swinging back at him, though not very..effectively.

If Nicodemus was trying to squash romantic thought, Dis was trying to encourage them. Not the most romantic but close. Sort of. Ish.
ANYWAY, Marcus winced as another blow landed. Not as strong as the first but a hit was a hit."Am not." He chuckled, trying to smoulder at her. Was it working? He hadn't a clue.
"A cute girl always keeps me on my toes, and when that girl is my girlfriend of course I have got to be my best." Closing the distance between them, eyebrows waggled. "Because that's what I want you to be Cass. My girlfriend."

Ah..buh..durrrr...
....
.....
Cass's brain sort of shut down as her face reddened. Cassandra, this isn't the time for tha-..hello....?
<> All Nicodemus got back from her was static. Pure static from the brain shutdown. Yeah, distraction techniques were working quite well on her, causing her to have to take a moment to slap herself with one hand to try and reboot her head.
"I... I think we should save that conversation for a little bit if we're going to finish this fight, Marcus..." Still, she was flustered enough to not really make that good of a strike with her weapon, her face still several shades of pink.

Hissing at the weapon connected, Marcus was still grinning. "Why not now? It's not like we don't have time." He was flirting and fighting with her. Was this a healthy relationship?
Who knew.
"We can start off slow. Go on dates, stop acting like we're not sure if we want to date." The grin became sly. "Maybe have a good round of making out. Make it official you know? That way I can stop worrying about other guys trying to pick you up." Even as he swung out he was distracted.
Why so cute Cass? Why so hot?

Her face was probably never going to regain its natural color again at the rate it was going. Fighting and flirting - hopefully it wouldn't be the required theme for future flirt-fests if they had to happen. Not that they hadn't happened all over, but still it was definitely a new set up for the fight-and-flirt.
"You mean dates that aren't just cuddling in your room with a good movie?" she answered, "I mean, if those count then we're technically already dating." It was a very matter-of-fact tone, though it really didn't help how flustered he had made her. Of all times to throw that at her.
Then a pause.
"Wait, other guys are trying to pick me up?" she stopped, a very confused look on her face before seeming to remember that she needed to actually try to hit him again...
which was not very successful.

Marcus found flirt fighting to be one of his better ideas. It got her flustered, made him all.. puffed up, and he was hoping after they could cuddle and make out. "Sort of but nothing was official. I want the guys to know you're my girl. Its a sort of male pride thing."
Without hitting her with his sword, Marcus had a better attack.

It really didn't seem like he was actually going to wait until 'after' for the 'make out' part of it all though. Not that Cass's brain had gotten to actually throw itself back into working condition fully before the lip-to-lip combat began. Should she have been coining that term?
She'd have to think of it later when the blood in her head was actually going past her brain. Right now it was firmly and forever probably planted in her cheeks.
Cassandra... Nicodemus tested the waters to make sure that he wasn't..completely losing his ward. Hello? Are you there? It's kinda getting lonely up here in brain land...? No...? Nothing?
STOP KISSING THE BOIL.
And for a moment, it seemed like maybe she was listening to that little voice in her head, pulling away from the older boy and scratching the back of her neck nervously. But it was only long enough to catch her breath before she snuck her arm around his neck and pressed her lips back against his more forcefully.
Cass was capable of kiss-attacks too!
Even if Nicodemus didn't approve.
