Typically, Inukashi would have avoided direct combat in broad daylight. Their reason for being in Idarin definitely didn't include it--a bit of minor theft in a crowded town called for subtlety of hand, not aggressive confrontation. Pickpocketing was a much more profitable enterprise. They'd spent enough time in West Block to understand the strategies of surviving on the streets, and though their usual income had come in through their businesses, not petty crime, they'd at least had the know-how to lift cash or food in a pinch. Something good to know even in an entirely new world.

But they could fight, if they had to; even without their dogs by their side, they'd fight tooth and claw, if that's what it came to. They weren't brawny and they lacked technique, sure, but it was hard to put them down for good. Their instinct to survive gave them an edge. Entering a combat tournament, though? Inukashi would've laughed their ass off if someone suggested it to them a month ago.

And now they find themself approaching a combat arena, fully prepared to fight in an organized, sanctioned tournament. With a judge and everything.

They almost laughed a bit, approaching the ring. It'd been advertised that the winner of the hand-to-hand fight would be rewarded with some sort of prize, and Inukashi had jumped at the chance to win something potentially useful. Now, however, they weren't so sure if it was worth it. But they'd gone into this relying on their sheer determination to pull them through, and that resolve hadn't yet wavered. One just had to wonder if there wasn't a better use of time.

Baring their teeth, the kid flashed their opponent what could have been a grin. Finally they edged forward with knees and elbows bent for stability. "Alright, then. If you wanna get it going, go ahead."

The Runty Dance | Open | Tempest's Tournament

Kotaro glanced up at the temple, looming over the rest of the city, in reverence. Not because of the its architecture, or its religious significance, but because of the giant tournament going on inside of it that he was eagerly pouncing at the opportunity to participate in. He got to beat people up, there’d be no cheaty weak magic, a prize was being offered, and he’d get to beat people up; all in all, a perfect combination for him.

Unfortunately, the tournament structure meant that he had to wait around for ever to actually get into the fight. During this time, one should probably have done something like strategising for his battle, or observing people’s tactics, or even looking to see who he would be facing off against. He obviously chose the best option available: sleeping so thoroughly that he had to be woken because he was in danger of missing it.

Groggily approaching the ring, he still wasn’t fully paying attention to who he was going against. “Yeah, yeah; let’s just get to the pummelin’, so I can get back to sleep. It’s been a long day, and yer not gonna lose by myself, so let’s get it goin’”.

{ woop can you pm me? there’s an ooc skype group and for some reason your ask page is giving me trouble so i can’t extend an invitation to you D: }

omg i can't seem to get to your ask box either, and i would try and contact you through fan mail but i haven't been following you long enough to do so :/// maybe you're having trouble because you went to the actual /ask page--it seems like the ask button doesn't appear there when i check it, but it shows up when clicking the crossed swords symbol underneath the hp/ex bars on the theme, so maybe that'll also work for you? hopefully? sorry for all the trouble!!
