come at me scrublord i'm ripped [fight club]

"Right," he said, cringing as he allowed to be carried by her. Ardos knew humans were lesser creatures but it was still impulse for him to obey the orders of a woman. It just made sense.

Ardos didn't live far off from the Underground. He pointed to a nearby apartment. "There. Third floor."

Ardos grunted because of course he could get the damn door open, pulling out his keys from his pocket. A few receipts flew out but he didn't give a shit. That was somebody not completely injured's problem now.

The living room was dark, but Ardos didn't turn on the lights because he preferred the darkness anyway. He plopped down on the couch, knocking on the door nearby.

"Zen, I'm home, sorry, I'm kind of bleeding everywhere."

"What!?"

Zen rushed out of the bedroom in her pajamas, hair mussed, eyes bleary as they adjusted to the dark again. She saw another person standing there and jumped, covering her mouth.

"Oh, um, hello!"

"Zen, this is... Fuck, I dunno. There was a big misunderstanding and she kicked my ass, end of story."

"Should we...?"

Ardos shook his head. "Nah. She's fine. Like I said, it was a misunderstanding."

Zen tentatively nodded as she sat down next to her brother. She saw the blush and felt herself blush too. Now that she knew she wasn't an enemy, she noticed her pretty face and her nice build and —

Ah. She was so weak to pretty girls, especially pretty girls that had bodies with muscle tone like that. They were reminiscent of all the girls she used to fawn over at home.

She cleared her throat and nodded. "It's nice to meet you, Olivia. I'm Le-kzen. This is my brother Ardos. He's kind of bone-headed sometimes. I bet he started the fight."

Ardos rolled his eyes and she giggled. She raised her hand, letting energy crackle at her fingertips before inserting her strength into his body. It drained her immensely. It was enough for Ardos' body to pick up the healing.

Le-kzen flopped boneless on the side, laughing airily. "I'm so sorry about my brother. Would you... um, like to stay for tea, Olivia?"

Zen nodded at her and looked at Ardos expectantly. Ardos got the memo, so he stood up and headed to the kitchen to make tea. Zen, meanwhile, gestured for Olivia to sit on the couch next to her.

"Of course that's all right." Zen smiled at her. "Me and Ardos only moved in recently, so we're hoping to make some new friends. I hope what happened didn't change that. I mean... Ardos is usually a nice guy. Honest. He just has a tendency to pick fights often. It's one of the things I think he could work on."

She scratched her cheek sheepishly, thankful that her skin was so dark that Olivia wouldn't be able to notice. "Are you in College, Olivia? What are you studying?"

Ardos placed their tea on the coffee table in front of Olivia and Zen. After that, he gave Zen a polite nod before heading out. More heads to break, Zen presumed.

"Well, Physical Education or Athletics would be a good choice for you, I think!" She nodded, picking up her tea and taking a sip. "Personally, I'm studying Magic Theory and Politics, so I can't really help on that front, but if you need a study buddy on general education... Well." She blushed. "I'm available."
