He smiled like a celebrity, proud and appraised when she didn't deny that she had in fact been around once or twice (that he could remember seeing her). He didn't always wonder as to why, there were a few other carnies who liked to stop by and make a little extra money after their showing. He highly doubted Runa was one to bet though, even if she obviously could and would probably make a ton extra.. yeah, she was very good. In fact Louie even thought that he might have been cheating by seeing her all the time, but if the others weren't.. then they were idiots, plain and simple. He chuffed in response to the mention of Garrick. "Yeah he's a wierdo.. heard some horrah stories.. scary guy" he trailed off.<br/><br/>Movement of her hand with her careful answer caught his attention, the pad of her finger running along the skin of her leg. Looked pretty smooth, looked like she took care of it. He could appreciate that. Blue eyes flicked back up to meet her gauging vision. The fighter straightened his place and leaned forward on his elbows, connected to the spread of his knees. "Figured I did.. Don' wanna toot my own horn, thinkin' you were there to watch lil' ol'<em>me</em>" he teased unabashedly. After fights, depending on how badly he had been banged up, he would either go straight to the medic (a scary bastard that belonged no where near the injured, in Louies opinion) or straight to wherever the nearest gaggle of girls were hanging around, all driven by the testoserone, reacting to their natural biological attraction to the alpha male in the moment. 'does that hurt?' 'How did it feel?', same questions different voices, even a puppy like Louie could begin to recite the words verbatim until he could get those bodies plastered to his front, against the nearest brick wall till they couldn't stand to make out anymore. Maybe this time, he would catch Runa before she scurried off like the mysterious gypsy queen she was, leaving him in the dust to track her down like a grey hound to a flag the next day, in this exact same spot.<br/><br/>"But I don' think I ever actually see ya after. What'dya say we take this to the next level?" he asked, raising a jagged eyebrow with exaggerated coyness and continued, before he could be construed as a pig "You can schmooze around with me a lil', before my bed time". His heart wasn't necassarily going a mile a minute, but he was anticipating a brush off. Bring it.. he'd be back again tomorrow to try again. Guy was like a weeble wobble, persistent as all hell and never fell down.
