				When your day job involves decent-sized audiences and is totally illegal, you can't always be picky about the venue.&nbsp; Sometimes you luck out, though.<br><br>The group arrives at a modest but clean-looking bar on Long Island.&nbsp; "There's not really room to bring the piano in," Megan comments regretfully.&nbsp; "They've got a good sound system, though.&nbsp; If someone wants to argue over the music, we get to flip a coin."<br><br>She strides up to the bar, and orders a "Blue Monkey without the Caracoa."&nbsp; The bartender nods, flipping a hidden switch, and a soft buzz sounds from the staff door next to the bar.&nbsp; Megan drops a $10 bill onto the bar, and motions for House and Wilson to follow through the door.<br><br>The basement below is unexpectedly large, and one can tell that it's hosted a higher class of Street Fighter than the warehouse in the past: the actual ring is set into the floor, so that the audience won't be at risk from errant projectiles.&nbsp; Large video screens enable the up-close view that the downward perspective prevents.&nbsp; Many of the seats are already full, and several fighters are visible with their managers.<br><br>A man in a suit hands Megan a sheet of paper, the tournament bracket, which she dutifully adds to the clipboard.&nbsp; She scans it once, nodding, before looking up.&nbsp; "House, I think that's your first opponent.&nbsp; Derek Fitzgerald."&nbsp; The man she indicates is dressed in combat fatigues and a wifebeater, lean and muscular but not especially huge.&nbsp; "Wilson, you've got that kid.&nbsp; His name's Jimmy Evans."&nbsp; She smirks as she gestures toward a young man dressed in Armani slacks and (open) jacket over a red t-shirt.&nbsp; "Don't feel too bad if you knock him out.&nbsp; He doesn't need the money."<br><br>(OOC: House can discern that Fitzgerald is a Special Forces practicioner.&nbsp; His Jab is 6/5/2, his Block is speed 8 with +2 soak, and his Spinning Backfist is 3/8/3.<br><br>Wilson can discern that Evans is a Capoeira practicioner.&nbsp; His Forward is 5/7/2, his Backflip Kick is 5/7/two backwards, and his Grab is not worth mentioning.)

Wilson proclaims with raised fist.<br>circlmastr (1:49:12 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;House eyes the sound system with a tipsy glance.&nbsp; Addressing one of the speakers: "Say, d'y'know.. what's it called... Strangers in the Night?&nbsp; Can ya play that one?"<br>HomerinNYC (1:50:25 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;" We're not having this argument yet again, House!" Wilson says, still grinning and waving to the crowd.<br>Dullone598 (1:50:36 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;House gets his request for his fight, mainly because his opponent doesn't care.<br>Dullone598 (1:51:17 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;With a theatrical sigh, Jimmy takes his position opposite Wilson, a cocky grin forming on his face as he takes his stance.&nbsp; Some time later, Fitzgerald climbs into the arena opposite House...<br>Dullone598 (1:51:33 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(You will begin with 2 empty hexes between you and your victim.)<br>circlmastr (1:52:01 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;House, purporting to be too drunk to notice Wilson, slaps the top of the speaker in a moment of inspiration.&nbsp; "Oh!&nbsp; What is it... play it, play the one... What's it called, it goes 'la deedee da, deedee da... my pretty one...'

" Another Capoeira fighter, eh? Fun." He grins as he dances from foot to foot, and then leaps forward with a kick.<br>Dullone598 (1:55:24 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Fitzgerald looks slightly disgusted with House's behavior, but apparently he knows that his opponent is 2-1 because he doesn't quite relax.<br>Dullone598 (1:55:34 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(Round 1 commences.&nbsp; You may declare yourself.)<br>HomerinNYC (1:55:35 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5/7+1/2.<br>circlmastr (1:55:37 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;He gives his Special Forces opponent a glassy-eyed look.&nbsp; "Uh... which of you is my opponent?&nbsp; The other, the other two have to wait...."<br>circlmastr (1:56:16 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(Let's go Short Kick, 6/5/3)<br>Dullone598 (1:57:57 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Fitzgerald twists forward into a spin, launching the back of his hand towards House's face in a textbook Spec-Ops manuever (Spinning Backfist on 3).<br>Dullone598 (1:58:20 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If you choose to interrupt, his soak is 3.<br>circlmastr (1:59:07 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I'll abort to Deflecting Punch.&nbsp; 5/5/3 and I get my 3 Block soak on his attack.<br>Dullone598 (1:59:29 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Heh.&nbsp; Then you may roll your damage (and that makes your soak 6 total, correct?)<br>OnlineHost (1:59:38 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;circlmastr rolled 2 10-sided dice:&nbsp; 5 2<br>circlmastr (1:59:40 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Aye<br>circlmastr (1:59:43 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;And crap<br>Dullone598 (2:00:51 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;//roll-dice2-sides10<br>OnlineHost (2:00:51 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Dullone598 rolled 2 10-sided dice:&nbsp; 3 8<br>Dullone598 (2:01:17 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;House whiffs, leaving Fitzgerald to score a glancing blow only.<br>Dullone598 (2:01:56 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As Wilson steps forward, Jimmy smirks, before falling back and rolling away (interrupts with Drunken Monkey Roll on 8, ends up behind Wilson with 1 hex between).<br>circlmastr (2:02:06 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;House puts a hand on whatever got glanced.&nbsp; "Ow, what was that for, mate?"<br>Dullone598 (2:02:23 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(Now, Dr. House would've knocked him out right there.)<br>HomerinNYC (2:02:28 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Wilson flips around, grinning.

Another Forward, 5+1/7/2.<br>circlmastr (2:05:29 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;House stumbles back and segues it into a Backflip Kick (5/7/2 back)<br>Dullone598 (2:08:14 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Fitzgerald ducks into a crouch to sweep House's legs out from under him, only to be forced to defend himself from the assault (Foot Sweep on 2, aborted to Block for a total soak of 5)<br>OnlineHost (2:08:32 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;circlmastr rolled 2 10-sided dice:&nbsp; 6 2<br>Dullone598 (2:09:03 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Jimmy steps forward, leaping up to meet Wilson, but is just too slow (Double-Hit Knee on 5.&nbsp; His soak is 3)<br>OnlineHost (2:09:31 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;HomerinNYC rolled 4 10-sided dice:&nbsp; 7 10 5 9<br>HomerinNYC (2:09:33 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Whoo.<br>Dullone598 (2:10:42 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;His eyes cross, but he doesn't quite stagger...<br>Dullone598 (2:10:46 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;//roll-dice4-sides10<br>OnlineHost (2:10:46 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Dullone598 rolled 4 10-sided dice:&nbsp; 2 10 4 9<br>Dullone598 (2:11:13 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;...leaving him to smack his knee into Wilson's chest and chin, though the damage is minimal.&nbsp; He should really go to the gym.<br>Dullone598 (2:11:45 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(Round 3 is go.&nbsp; You may declare.)<br>HomerinNYC (2:12:21 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Wilson narrows his eyes, and goes in for another violent kick to the solar plexus, focusing on striking hard this time. 5/7+1/2<br>circlmastr (2:12:58 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;House lands in a handstand and does a Roundhouse kick a la Morpheus from the Matrix sequel, just because it looks pretty cool and will hopefully catch Fitzy by surprise.&nbsp; (3/9/2)<br>Dullone598 (2:14:43 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Fitzgerald is moving forward almost at the same time, launching into another rapid spin, but House is just barely faster (Spinning Knuckle on 3, House wins the Dexterity tie.&nbsp; His soak is 3)<br>Dullone598 (2:15:33 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Jimmy actually is faster for once, stepping in to interrupt Wilson with a quick kick to the shin (Short on 6)<br>OnlineHost (2:15:41 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;circlmastr rolled 6 10-sided dice:&nbsp; 5 7 6 2 3 1<br>HomerinNYC (2:15:44 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Soak of 3.<br>circlmastr (2:15:46 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Gah<br>Dullone598 (2:15:46 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;//roll-dice2-sides2<br>OnlineHost (2:15:47 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Dullone598 rolled 2 2-sided dice:&nbsp; 1 2<br>Dullone598 (2:16:03 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Jimmy flubs it, stumbling.<br>Dullone598 (2:16:24 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(Oh man, not pretty)<br>Dullone598 (2:16:34 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;//roll-dice8-sides10<br>OnlineHost (2:16:34 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Dullone598 rolled 8 10-sided dice:&nbsp; 10 4 6 6 4 1 5 7<br>HomerinNYC (2:16:47 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Not NEARLY as bad as it coulda been.<br>HomerinNYC (2:16:58 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;His soak's still 3, yeah?<br>Dullone598 (2:17:01 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(If you nail one damage roll then botch the other, do you still suffer the penalty?)<br>Dullone598 (2:17:03 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(Yes.)<br>OnlineHost (2:17:05 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;HomerinNYC rolled 5 10-sided dice:&nbsp; 8 6 6 2 5<br>HomerinNYC (2:17:09 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3 damage again.<br>circlmastr (2:17:18 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(I would imagine so)<br>Dullone598 (2:17:41 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Fitzgerald tags House right on the chin (3 damage), but then stumbles trying to deliver the second hit across his temple.<br>HomerinNYC (2:17:45 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"Punk."

				After a few more matches go by, the next tier of the tournament bracket is sketched out.<br><br>Wilson's next opponent is identified on the tournament roster only as "Rix."&nbsp; He's a tall, slender young black man, dressed in red sweatpants and a matching sweatband, who defeated his first opponent with dubious technique but excellent conditioning.<br><br>"House," Megan murmurs upon seeing the bracket, "that's one of the guys from the team I mentioned."&nbsp; The fighter she indicates, Leander, is a powerfully built man with long-ish dark hair, clad in wrestling trunks.&nbsp; His previous opponent, a kung-fu fighter, was flattened in relatively short order.&nbsp; "He looks familiar, actually...but I can't think where I've seen him before."<br><br>(OOC: House can identify Leander as a Wrestling practicioner.<br><br>Wilson can identify Rix as a Jeet Kune Do practicioner.&nbsp; His Head Butt is speed 4, damage 9, move 1.)

He grins.<br>Dullone598 (10:40:54 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Megan, of course, is suitably impressed.&nbsp; "Geez, House.&nbsp; I don't think I'd even be able to look a guy that size in the eye without freaking."<br>circlmastr (10:42:11 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"Why, have a problem with ladders?"&nbsp; House grins and opts to put Megan's potential agrophobia (right?) to the test, by wrapping her up and lifting her into the air.<br>Dullone598 (10:42:13 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"This Freestyle thing is crazy.&nbsp; Think I'm gonna like it here."&nbsp; Rix heads off to join his manager, and probably get a better doctor.<br>Dullone598 (10:43:38 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"Eep!"&nbsp; She is, understandably, caught off guard, although the height doesn't seem to faze her as much as looking silly does.&nbsp; "You know what I mean, House..."<br>HomerinNYC (10:44:06 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Wilson grins. " Ey, you two. Keep it in the dojo, eh?" He grins good-naturedly.<br>circlmastr (10:44:11 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"I know, I was just looking for an excuse to get a view up your skirt."<br>Dullone598 (10:44:58 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;She sighs, trying to smooth it out.&nbsp; "House, I'm your manager.&nbsp; Let me keep some dignity, please?"<br>HomerinNYC (10:45:45 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;" You're managing super-powered martial arts freaks, Megan, you're only a step above being a pro-wrestling manager." He grins. " So enjoy the craziness a bit! At least we're not staged."<br>circlmastr (10:45:46 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"Oh fine, but I reserve the right to rob you of dignity in private."&nbsp; He sets Megan down wit a grin.<br>Dullone598 (10:46:51 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Suddenly, House's fun is interrupted by a booming voice.&nbsp; "You're a good fighter, little man, but I do not envy you."&nbsp; Leander's accent sounds vaguely Greek, and he looks rather more amused than he did when his ass was being kicked.<br>HomerinNYC (10:47:58 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(I'm suddenly reminded of the Zim episode with the Planet-Jackers. " Let's finish this, little man. *crunch.*")<br>circlmastr (10:48:18 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"Well, it's good that you're above such petty concerns as whatever it is you'd be envious of me for."<br>HomerinNYC (10:48:53 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;" House, shush, we're about to learn something about some dark and shadowy opponent!" Wilson says, giving House a quick bop on the head.<br>HomerinNYC (10:49:10 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(Why, yes, Wilson IS Genre-savvy.)<br>circlmastr (10:49:32 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(I'm just waiting for a chance to say "It's never Lupus.")<br>Dullone598 (10:50:02 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;He laughs.&nbsp; "Petty?&nbsp; Look at the bracket.&nbsp; It is an embarrassment to lose, but sometimes it is less painful."<br>Dullone598 (10:50:14 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(If animal hybrids start showing up...)<br>HomerinNYC (10:50:25 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(" What do you know, House.

He studies the bracket for the mysterious guy who Megan mentioned earlier.<br>Dullone598 (10:57:29 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(Mysterious team, you mean.)<br>circlmastr (10:57:32 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(You mean aside the guy House just foguht?)<br>circlmastr (10:57:35 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*fought<br>HomerinNYC (10:57:44 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Yeah.<br>Dullone598 (10:57:48 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(There are 3 of them total)<br>HomerinNYC (10:57:52 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Rix was a part of the 'weiiiird guys'?<br>Dullone598 (10:57:58 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;No, Rix was just a dude.<br>circlmastr (10:58:09 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Hahah, you beat up a dude.<br>Dullone598 (10:58:34 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;He isn't on any team, actually<br>HomerinNYC (10:58:54 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;So, yeah, mysterious team.<br>Dullone598 (10:59:10 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(We'll close here because cliffhangers are amusing.&nbsp; My next post will be enlightening.)</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div>

				"That's good, I guess," Megan says a bit nervously, peering down at the woman leaving the arena.&nbsp; Apparently she's noticed the same thing House and Wilson have.&nbsp; "How do you guys feel about this?&nbsp; Should we ease up on the betting?"&nbsp; Of course, the team's finances are in much better shape than they were a week ago either way...<br><br>(OOC: Ler Drit is M.

Wilson grins, easily dodging the kick.<br>HomerinNYC (11:43:11 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;" Now go to the waiting hands of our manager, eh?"<br>Dullone598 (11:43:27 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Megan is already rushing to meet them, looking very, very worried.&nbsp; "Oh my God, are you guys okay?"<br>circlmastr (11:43:48 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"I'm alright, but it sounds like Wilson's got a stick up his ass."<br>HomerinNYC (11:44:24 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;" Oh come on, I barely ever get the chance to break out the good melodrama voice, and you won't let me use it on the psychotic russian-special-forces tart?"<br>circlmastr (11:44:45 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;House puts an arm around Megan for support, and just so he can have his arm around her.&nbsp; "There's a reason you don't break out the melodramatic voice: it sucks."<br>HomerinNYC (11:45:21 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;" I'm insulted." Wilson grins. " Well, I'm just going to have to plow her into the ground to show off now, won't I?"<br>circlmastr (11:46:21 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"Did you hear something, Megan?&nbsp; All I hear is a faint buzzing sound."<br>Dullone598 (11:47:41 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"Can you?"&nbsp; Megan is too busy being scared to realize that she should probably be annoyed at House for something.&nbsp; "I mean, that looked pretty close and all, but still...<br>HomerinNYC (11:48:25 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;" Psh. That lady beat him by a bare stroke of luck- She was barely standing after the end." Wilson claps House on the back. " She'll be eating mat soon."<br>Dullone598 (11:48:40 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(Technically, Ler Drit isn't really Russian.&nbsp; It just has influences from Russian special forces.&nbsp; The style didn't really come together until well after Bison left that country.)<br>HomerinNYC (11:49:01 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(As I said: Carrie meets Black Widow.)<br>circlmastr (11:49:09 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"The difference is that you can't take a kick.&nbsp; That glowing shit would put you on your ass."<br>Dullone598 (11:51:25 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"Just...just be careful, Wilson.&nbsp; I mean, even if you win...I don't think they'll do anything to us just for beating them, but..."<br>HomerinNYC (11:52:17 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;" True. I'm wondering what the hell a Ler Drit practitioner is doing in the low ranks- I'd figure most of Bison's folks, especially anyone he'd train in that stuff, has to be scary talented..." He taps his chin.<br>circlmastr (11:52:21 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"Us?&nbsp; She was warming up to me.&nbsp; Then Wilson showed up with his 'melodrama' to piss on everything."<br>HomerinNYC (11:53:01 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;" Come on, House, how many ladies must you romance?" Wilson asks, grinning.<br>circlmastr (11:54:00 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;House just grunts a bit and shakes his head.&nbsp; "God, you're clueless."<br>circlmastr (11:54:28 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Then he stumbles off with Megan, not wanting the conversation to continue.<br>HomerinNYC (11:54:33 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Wilson tsks. " Well, hang out with Megan for a bit- I'm going to get something to drink from the concessions."</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div>

" Hope you didn't use up all that energy of yours in the other fights!" He grins. " Play it again, House."<br>CirclMastr (10:43:38 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;He proceeds to sit in front of same piano and play a little ditty by Stephen Foster.<br>CirclMastr (10:44:00 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(Something like Ol' Susanna, to start.)<br>HomerinNYC (10:44:24 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;" Damn it House, I said Beethoven.

Wilson grins.<br>CirclMastr (11:14:46 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Kicking it up hard again, House improvises a sort of pop/big band/polka version of hip-hop.&nbsp; "I'll take you to the candy shop.&nbsp; I'll let you lick the lollipop...."<br>HomerinNYC (11:14:51 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;He then dances back again, this time confident in his ability to outrace any goddamn Spinning Knuckle moves, dancing 6 Hexes back.<br>Dullone598 (11:16:43 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(what's your speed?)<br>HomerinNYC (11:16:55 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.<br>Dullone598 (11:17:29 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;She just barely misses him as she lunges forward, foot ablaze with energy (PK-Channeling Forward on 8; you are now 4 hexes apart).<br>Dullone598 (11:17:49 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(Turn 6.&nbsp; You may declare.)<br>CirclMastr (11:19:25 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;House suddenly just stops to tap out a few notes.&nbsp; "La, deedeeda, deedeeda, my pretty one..."<br>HomerinNYC (11:19:34 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;He drops down to all fours, and with a croak- Wait, wrong movie. He flips himself forward, cartwheeling fast into her face, landing with a resounding thud in her face, before kicking off and rebounding a couple of hexes away.<br>HomerinNYC (11:19:58 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Rolling Attack, 5/8/7.

Whee.<br>HomerinNYC (11:30:24 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Wilson looks a bit surprised at finding himself looking up at the ceiling. " I admit, I'm not used to getting on my back this early in a relationship, I really think that we should take some more time."<br>HomerinNYC (11:30:25 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;He says, rather scrambled.<br>Dullone598 (11:30:43 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(Look on the bright side: any time he messes MA up is one less time I feel obligated to find an excuse for it.)<br>CirclMastr (11:32:05 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;House punctuates the defeat by playing a little 'pratfall' chord.<br>Dullone598 (11:32:59 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Angela exhales heavily, flicking her wrist to get the blood from Wilson's nose off it.&nbsp; "Not too bad," she admits casually, though she doesn't move to help Wilson up.<br>HomerinNYC (11:34:08 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;He gets to his feet. " Well, shows me to underestimate my opponent." He smiles, nose freely flowing blood, as he offers his hand to the woman, clearly not expecting her to shake.<br>HomerinNYC (11:34:36 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(BTW- I checked it out, I rolled 15 dice, she rolled 21, I got 7 successes, SHE GOT THIRTEEN.)<br>CirclMastr (11:35:02 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(The RNG was on my side)<br>Dullone598 (11:35:37 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;She does shake his hand, though she feels the need to squeeze excessively hard.&nbsp; "I guess you two were better competition than I expected."<br>Dullone598 (11:35:47 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;At least she doesn't apply her psychokinesis to the handshake.<br>HomerinNYC (11:36:32 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;" Good to hear. Perhaps we'll meet again some other time, and on that day, I hope that my regular piano-player is on the job." He smiles, giving her a quick little salute, before heading back to the ring.<br>HomerinNYC (11:36:53 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;He very pointedly doesn't kick House in the throat. " Well, that was blood painful."<br>Dullone598 (11:37:25 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Angela stalks out of the arena.&nbsp; Nobody is cheering for her victory, but she doesn't seem to care.<br>Dullone598 (11:37:48 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Megan just shakes her head.&nbsp; "House, what was the point of that?"<br>Dullone598 (11:39:07 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;She mostly just looks relieved that nobody is too messed up, though.<br>HomerinNYC (11:39:47 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Wilson smiles. " Oh, we can't blame him, you know how House is willing to do quite a lot to get into the pants of some of the competitors." Wilson says cheerfully, holding an icepack to the back of his nose,<br>HomerinNYC (11:39:48 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;his head tilted up.<br>CirclMastr (11:39:50 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"I was trying to get on her good side so she'd actually speak to us and maybe end up helping us out.&nbsp; But he fucked it up, but good."<br>CirclMastr (11:40:25 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"So have fun randomly guessing what's going on instead of, say, being able to find out."&nbsp; Rather upset, House departs.<br>Dullone598 (11:40:32 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"She has a good side?" she queries.<br>HomerinNYC (11:40:54 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;" House, she's a bloody Shadoloo Ler Drit nutjob. One, she's almost certainly being taught by M. Bloody Bison or somebody he has trained, and two, if she has a good side, we're not going to get on it by talking nice."<br>CirclMastr (11:42:35 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Ah, but he's already out the door.<br>Dullone598 (11:43:14 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Megan sighs.&nbsp; "Well, nobody's hurt too bad, and we did make decent money tonight."<br>HomerinNYC (11:44:42 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;" That which does not kill us, Megan." He grins, tapping the side of his head. " Anyway, I think House is feeling a tad delicate. He could probably use a bit of comforting."<br>HomerinNYC (11:44:55 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;" I'm going to help the others get the piano loaded up." He goes to give a hand to the others, loading things up.<br>Dullone598 (11:46:00 PM):&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;She shrugs.&nbsp; "He...probably just needs some time to cool off.&nbsp; I guess."</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div>
