Kori stood on a balance beam like it had offered her a balcony. "Public practice" she called, wiggling her fingers. "Unarmed. No themes. No hurting each other too much. Compliments are mandatory. If anyone complains, I will invoice your ancestors."
Raizen yawned so wide his soul nearly escaped. Hikari elbowed him in the ribs. "If you fall asleep mid-fight, I'm disowning you."
"Try" he said, and yawned again.
Arashi unbuttoned his cuffs like the room was a gala and he needed to look attractive. Keahi tightened her wrap with small neat tugs. Lynea's braid looked... Messier than usual, to say the least. Esen rolled his shoulders and the way they cracked reminded Raizen of the sound popping plastic wrap made.
"First up - Esen vs. Four Volunteers Who Won't Sue Him" Kori shouted with a jolly tone.
