She was apparently… a friend of something of Robert’s. Petra was his girlfriend or fiancé (frankly he hadn’t any idea.) And Reine was.. somebody. Either way rumors had been going round about b***h fights and people just flipping out all over the place. Reine at least hadn’t gone on a killing spree. Not yet anyways.
(He wouldn’t hold it against anyone. The island was a bit of a test of fortitude.) Still he’d yet to really introduce himself and hey, what a better way than a friendly sparring match? He thought it was a novel idea. Train, and talk. Or maybe yell obscenities at each other while fighting. That would work too.
Text send, he’d asked if she’s meet him out on the ground after lunch. If she didn’t show, she didn’t show, and he probably just go bother someone else. There were plenty of ‘hatchlings’ he’d yet to meet after all.

Reine rolled over on her bed, kicking her phone to the ground in the process. It wouldn't stop ringing, though- it appeared their cellphones were extremely resistant- probably built to withstand any abuse, and groaning, the girl rolled off her bed, dragging the blanket with her.
Pawing around for the phone, she grabbed it, and stared blearily at the message, trying to decipher it.After pressing 'send, she rolled over again, and promptly went back to sleep. Whoever it was had said 'lunch', and that meant they could wait.

The text was not met with a warm reply. Marucs was a bit...dejected at the fact this Reine didn't seem to be the type to do spur of the moment sparring. Dang. Well, he couldn't really blame her for not knowing him, many hunters might have been here a while, but he sure didn't know them. Quote: Marcus. An intermediate moon hunter looking for someone to spar with. It's almost one, are you up for a quick match? He checked his clock again. He didn't have guard duty until six. Too much spar time for him to just be idle and do nothing. He waited for a reply back, if any. Her text made him think...she must not like new people.

Whoever this Marcus was, she was prepared to deal with him. Almost.. after what had happened with Jerry the last time, she was almost afraid of spars. Today she'd pulled her hair up into a simple ponytail in preparation; he did say he was an intermediate hunter, after all, and if they were sparring, she probably had to at least try to look presentable.
Even if he seemed creepy. Who seriously sent messages to strangers?!

Marcus sent messages to people at random. Mostly since he didn't think it was weird or unusual. They were all supposed to know each other. They were supposed to work with each other. But- yeah he just didn't get what was so bad about texting people he hadn't met. Plus one on the social awkward ladder. The girl's reposes had him a bit thrown. A jumble text and then a simple ok. Maybe he caught her at a bad time. Maybe it was just 'her time' of the month or some s**t. Half sitting, half leaning on a fence post, Marcus was trying to explain to Dis the finer points of random battles. All he was getting was that it was a great way to kick some a**. Marcus was trying to explain how it was a great way to get some training in while meeting new people. The former vampire just scoffed and said he could do that by being a stalker in the dorms. Marcus was pretty opposed to be playing stalker, but not 'that guy who beats up people for fun.' Another text sent. Quote: Thank you. I'm out by the fields.

Getting out in the sun-- uh, mist, had cheered her up considerably, and also woken her up quite a bit. Battles.. she knew she needed more of them for practice, but again the mental image of bleeding Jerry came back, and..
sigh.
"So you're the.. one who texted me?" There was only one guy out on the fields.. it had to be him.

Some chick asking if he was the one who had texted her? Yep. That was probably him. "You're Reine then. Glad to meet you. And yeah. If you are that Reine I am that guy who texted you. Need to kill some time before I go do guard duty." Nevermind he shouldn't be training and wearing himself down but- It wasn't where he'd be engaging in possible combat. He'd be fine. Aside from that he had a cookie to keep him going.
"So, are you ready to start sparring?" He summoned Dis without any hesitation.

A smirk. "Hope you are, because I don't tend to hold back." A dive at her legs, and Marcus seemed fine with attacking so bluntly. "Nothing personal you know, but need to be on your toes. His blade missed and he stepped back, waiting for her to come at him.

"On my toes.. for what?"
Reine looked distinctly unimpressed; after all, even if he'd caught her by surprise, he hadn't landed a hit. Probably one of those all bark, no bite guys.
Summoning Alynthe, she ran a finger down the flat of the blade, then swiped at Marcus.

"For something like this." A stab at her arm. "So, aside from sparring I was hoping to ask a few questions. You up for that?" Swinging the blade , he held it up defensively.

Reine winced when Marcus finally landed a hit- that.. had stung, all right. Frowning, she stepped back, keeping her guard up. Intermediate or not, she had no intention of losing to him.
"What kind of questions?"

He bit back an instinctive sorry as she winced. "The usual. Where you're from. Why and how you got to be a hunter." A look of blatant curiosity. "What is up with you and Robert." He swung up, aiming for her chest. "Just throwing that one out there. I try not to beat around the bush and go off of rumors. Plus after the last mission Robert looked like he wanted to crawl in a hole and die."

"That what you guys consider usual?" He'd managed to hit her again while she was distracted, and Reine bit her lip, forcing herself to focus.
"I expect you're going to tell me the same things about yourself?" Except she didn't particularly need or want to know- he was going to have to try a bit better to get information out of her.
Going by his jacket, he wasn't a death hunter, it seemed... that kind of figured. Maybe if he beat her she'd tell him.. otherwise, she didn't think he needed to know. Grinning, the girl slashed at him again, finally managing to land a hit.

Yes, that was usual for Marcus. "I don't think it's unusual. It's a pretty common enough question I think." Her hit got him, taking a step back to regain his balance. "And of course. No point in asking a question without giving an answer." He heard Dis telling him to exaggerate. "Born and raised in New York, became a hunter because I had no direction or desire. The opportunity presented itself to help others and well, I liked it. Then I got here and the rest is history. Unlike others, I don't think anyone from my past is a hunter."
A stab at her side. "I just like meeting new people I guess."

"Fair enough." The fight seemed to be going in his favour so far, but Reine wasn't about to give up- part of her, though, was convinced he was just distracting her by attempting to make small talk.
"You know my name; I've lived in a bunch of places, and I became a hunter because I figured why not." Had Reine actually answered his question? Technically.. but it was an answer that had zero substance. She darted towards him, scoring another slash across his torso.
There was still no mention of Robert, or Petra.
