Sure she was attractive on a sexual level, and the smile she gave Sashira made her even more beautiful. But Russell wouldn't be quick to forget the arrogant words she'd spouted as soon as she'd made her presence known. Even the mention that the blonde was running low on the 'special diet' that monster girls needed wasn't enough to make the blue-eyed boy regard her with more than passing desire. After all, some people thought sharks and snakes were pretty but Russell had no desire to cosy up with one of them.<br/><br/>Russell rolled his eyes as Masako continued to give Sashira advice about fighting. The idea of never underestimating the enemy was a good one but it could be taken too far. "Better not to overestimate them in a fight either, Sashira," he piped up. "If you do that you can convince yourself that you can't win and you give up. And that's the most important thing in a fight - never give up." He shrugged. "Almost everything else in a fight balances out or can be countered by something else, but it doesn't matter how skilled or fast or strong you are if you give up." With those words Russell turned his attention to Blaine, curious to see how he would answer Yuri's question about what kind of creature he was.<br/><br/><br/>
