He liked that, plus she was sexy as all hell. He probably didn't stand a chance, but there was nothing that said he couldn't appreciate her from a distance. His eyes only roved for a moment though, as he and Karn were still being talked at by Chad, and Karn shrugged his hand off his shoulder. Dammit he hated it when people didn't listen to reason. He could see the anger and hate behind the fake visage Chad put on for the masses, and when he felt that grubby hand on his shoulder, he wanted to crush it.<br/><br/>But he kept his cool; he wouldn't get anywhere with that kind of behavior. He simply nodded along with what the man had to say. He would have said something, but got completely blindsided by Karn revealing what he looked like under that scarf and threatening to...well he wasn't quite sure exactly what he was threatening Chad with. Just that it involved him extensive facial reconstructive surgery if he ever spoke ill of the dead like that. The asshole deserved it, but he was inwardly cursing Karn for dooming himself like that. Chad was the type of guy who would do anything in the name of whatever his agenda was. And now he had a feeling the big guy was on his shit list.<br/><br/>And as he walked away, Chad wasted no time in going to the cameras. Announcing it loud and clear for the world, he said Karn had volunteered to give up Downpour as his partner and go it alone since he felt so bad about Prankster "OD'ing" and leaving Rho without a partner. He'd been there and he knew that wasn't what happened, but what could he do? Jack shit that's what, so he let it go. He watched Karn go talk to Downpour and apologize, then he nodded at him. Rho dipped his own head in return, making sure that he'd talk to the dragon later.<br/><br/>But on the bright side, at least he had a partner, and one who could really help out in this case. After that was done, he caught Shockwave and GG making quick work of the robbers. Good on them, but he planned to beat their time. He smiled at Downpour as she came over to him. "Hey, I know this is not how any of us planned on this goin' down. But we're partners now, and I know you wanna win this as bad as me. So let's come up with a plan and show the people we belong here, yeah?" Dragon's Ire was up after GG and Shockwave, and Rho watched him do his thing after he turned into...another thing. He was fast; messy, but fast. And showy too from the looks of things. "Gonna be fun to follow<em>that</em>up," he said with a grin at Downpour.
