Gluttony grins, sharp and vicious and attacks again. She's fast, and she's clearly no slouch at fighting, but she doesn't have Celestine's speed, and even her own boosted skills are only going to take her so far.

Celestine is faster, equally vicious, and has centuries of experience to back it up. 

Gluttony makes them work for it, but after a few minutes, it's clear that Celestine has the upper hand.

They certainly do! Though Gluttony seems far more delighted by this fact than anything else, and when she finally finds herself going down, she goes down cackling delightedly.

"Good fight!" she declares.

"The same to you," Celestine says, offering a hand to help her up. "It's been a while since I've had quite that much fun fighting one-on-one."

Gluttony will take it, grinning. "I'm not even the best fighter of the group!"

Permalink

"Oh?" Celestine looks around speculatively at the other members of Gluttony's crew still present. "Who is, would you say?"

Permalink

"Might depends... S is probably the strongest of us, but he tends to just want to sleep. Av and Wrath regular beat the tar out of each other, and they won't spar with the rest of us, and seeing what they can do...Probably one of them?"

"Noted." 

This is the face of someone who is absolutely planning to ask Avarice or Wrath or both for a spar in the near future. 

"Now, were you serious about wanting to eat? I'm sure we can find somewhere for dinner nearby if you eat the same things as baseline humans, but it might be a little trickier if you don't."

"I can always eat," Gluttony says, and there's something a little dark under her words. "And we're probably easier to feed than most baseline humans. We do eat the same as baselines, we're just...less constrained, in some ways."

Permalink

"Really." Celestine pauses in the middle of stowing what used to be Gluttony's knife in their belt.

"Would it be terribly rude of me to ask for more details on that?"
