Ryza was listening to Needren and Mizuki talk if Felix could beat up the other as Mizuki spoke that he knew that Felix would win that fight. "Oh really now? I think that half sounds like a challenge to me." Oddly enough Ryza never did con Felix into dueling her. Felix laughed a little holding his hands up. "Needren is one thing you, I call Thalion crazy for trying to go head to head with you."
It was true enough she had a bit of a reputation and most couldn't compare with her skills. Though Thalion did have a slight advantage of being trained by her at a young age. "Oh come now... you always find some excuse to avoid dueling me. You act like I kill those I merely exchange blows with." She shrugged a little knowing she wasn't talking the male into a fight but it was worth a shot.
There was a number of things on his mind, the duel today had taken more out of him then he thought. Holding back seemed to be hard anymore. Not only that but he was dying to know what had happened today to tick Mizuki off. Though maybe leaving well enough alone would be the better idea as the other seemed perfectly fine now. Drinking was the last thing on his mind at the moment, heck it was a thought to sleep through all of this chatter going on even if some of it was amusing.
Though it seemed his peace was disrupted as Luna moved and sat in front of him. He looked at the female half questioning what she was doing before she doing. Though she spoke up soon enough what her plans were. Sitting up a little he half looked like he was thinking on telling her no. Yep she knew him alright a direct challenge just like that and if he had said no Ryza would have said yes for him.
He sighed a little figuring he could amuse her before leaving or calling it a night already. Though he knew better then to agree to this game as Luna explained it. Let alone with the drink she was using. most people would have probably been under the table after the first four or so failings. Though Thalion had enough practice having the stubbornness to keep up with Felix's drinking habits over the years.
"Yeah yeah .. get on with it lizard." She wanted to be a smart ass he could easily be one knowing she hated that word. It was a easy enough game and Thalion was a melee fighter and so watching things should have been a easy task. Again being tired and distracted by a number of things was not helping this thought. Though Mizuki saying even he could do it made him question why he was edging him on. "Weren't you the one this morning saying I was to be dropping a certain habit?" He growled a little before Luna sat down ready to start this.
The first couple were easy though he had a feeling she was holding back and he was the sucker at the moment who didn't think of catching on this was a trap. Though he should have by Mizuki edging this game on. The first two wins lead into at least eight or so loses. Though after a few more and probably by a fluke, he had stopped counting losses by this point and hardly cared, he managed to win a last time. That or Felix was on to something when he swore that Thalion would be a better fighter if he was hammered all the time. Though that wasn't likely.
Though Thalion did prove his reputation for drinking that was certain it wasn't till the last three .. maybe four, yeah he wasn't sure really. Either way it had been a few drinks back now that he knew he should have quit. Though finally he gave up on trying to even the score, even though he won a second time after the first so called fluke.
Going much further and he'd never make it back to the room even knowing he normally went to pass out after drinking or competing with Felix in these silly games. Though Ryza protested a little when he said he was done, though he seemed able to even the score out. "Wait you start winning and you're backing down?" Thalion sighed a little. "Look you want to beat her you play her, I'm done heh."
