Norton found his arms trapped within Alyssa's own, her body turned against his own. He grit his teeth, but she had leverage. It was over all too soon, until he felt her twisting his hand just so... and then the steel met the wooden planks of the deck, loudly proclaiming his defeat to everyone aboard. He had hoped not too many of the crew was watching. Sure, he wasn't their captain- she was... but he was supposed to be the next great hope for the world. The lightbearer. His stomach churned, but he bit his lip and thought it better to take the loss in stride. After-all, he was the one who challenged her. He meant to lift her spirits, and he wouldn't quit there.<br/><br/>"Alright. Alright. Dinner then." He said as he wormed his way out of her grasp. Norton smiled at her, lifting his head up and locking those blue eyes upon her own emerald gaze, "But that doesn't mean I'll just give up." The youth said, lowering down with his legs spread and his arms wide. He bit his lip in a grin and lunged forward, playfull jabbing at her with his open hands until he thought he saw an opening. Then suddenly he was upon her, intent on wrestling her to the ground.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide</div><div class="spoiler_body">A mighty 15! (http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4782933/)<br/><br/>Meaning his attack to attack doesn't even work, since he's technically after her. :P Maybe she'll give up her turn this time, thinking she's won..<br/><br/>Grapple attempt; Athletics vs Athletics or Acrobatics, Norton rolls a 14. (http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4782936/) So grappling's much less mechanically useful (and also much less complex) in 5e, but that doesn't mean Alyssa and Norton can't wrassle!</div></div>
