#like a spar would be more likely. who'd win in their first friendly spar.

love looking at the "who would win in a fight" memes and going "they'd all be friends and have tea NEXT"

Hi there! May I request a headcanon for LL gang's reaction to seeing gn! Mc who's really flexible and good at street fightings or martial arts?

ohh that's so cool yes u can!!

sage

sage was ready to protect mc. he's a big guy,, a strong mercenary. but then mc is keeping up beside him in a bar fight and he ???? he's shocked but ? excited ? interested ?

asks to fight them in a friendly "loser buys the drinks" kind of way

won't complain if/when he loses because being pinned down or knocked on his ass by them is still a win (he'd ask them to teach a few moves as tricks up his sleeve though)

sage tries to flirt by moving to fix their stance with No Knowledge of what he's doing.

sage, reaching around them to be close, "i think your arms should be like this" mc quirking their brow, realizing what he's trying to do, "no, they are not. but very cute, sage."

so sorry to every flexible mc for the amount of times he raises and eyebrow and sends his Signature Smirk their way (as long as they're comfortable of course)

would genuinely be super impressed, even if it was just the splits—sage doesn't seem like an especially flexible guy.

mc asks "do you wanna try some stretches?" and sage, watching them easily do a leg hold, says "love you, don't think starting my journey in flexibility at 32 is a great idea."

anisa

honestly relieved when she finds them sparring with sage and keeping up

(also very happy to see them knock him down a few notches,, literally. probably laughs a little before clearing her throat and saying "good job, mc!")

there's a lot out there, especially when you're with the starsworn, so if they have experience with fighting that's some stress off her shoulders

would still like if they gained some practice with wielding a weapon, but at least if sage gets into a bar fight she knows they wouldn't be in complete danger by being around

something she'd enjoy is watching them do super cool tricks. like when people kick boards one after another, higher than the last kind of thing, and you're like Woah . or she asks them to show their most impressive pose/combo . that feels like anisa

i think she's at least a little flexible, touching the floor without bending your knees sort of flexible,, so she'd be glad to stretch with them. a little company never hurts and she can help make sure they don't hurt themself with the more advanced stuff

felix

what are the chances the person he brings in from another world already has experience? (more than him??) he asks where they learned how to fight, especially after watching them knock out someone much larger than them

physical fighting has never been his forte, so if mc ever offered to teach him some moves after he helped them with magic ?? i call this symbiosis. mutualism, if you will

the day usually ends up with both of them a little exhausted but happy to have tried something new

he might not say it at first but he finds them In Action very attractive. eventually when he's more comfortable he'd learn to relax and smirk, complimenting them on their Work TM

if they're especially flexible,, turn your body into a pretzel kind of flexible,, felix seems like the kind of person who'd grimace/panic a little like "oh. Oh No what are you doing" but is ultimately in awe

might take up their offer to stretch as long as they let him do easier versions of Whatever they're doing. he stares in disbelief at anything that has to do with legs by their head or handstands

mc notices and asks "what?" but all he does is shake his head, "nothing. you just continue to amaze and terrify me."

rime

listen. he didn't expect a lot from mc when he first saw them. "he doesn't like your character is because he feels like they can never live up to him" ok

so when he watches them fight tooth and nail when he expected them to trip over their own shoe? he's Intrigued to say the least

would be very shocked/entertained if they fought a little dirty because they definitely didn't learn that from felix or anisa, at least. real world street fighting experience am i right

definitely challenges them to a fight and doesn't go easy on them

if he wins he gloats, "looks like you still need more practice, hm?"

if he loses. (a bit of) a sore loser,, angry pouting and looking away while they help him off the ground but admits defeat

he looks like somebody who'd be pretty flexible so he takes a little more to be impressed, but as soon as they're bending backwards while in a splits he's done. like oh, you're that flexible.

when they're stretching he comes over and helps push them down a little further to really stretch . he'd also do partner stretches if they asked (tbh would bring it up to tease them but if they say yes then who's he to decline?)
