[ His tongue cut out. ]

An I.O.U., where you don't complain and don't act like a brat when I ask for it.

[ This is… going to go well as the bannik, isn't it. ]

[lascivient]

I don't know what I could possibly ever do for you, so this seems like an unfair trade. So, I'm entirely for it.

[erosive]

[ Looks like whether he wins or loses by the end of this, Zoya's a winner. :) ]

When did you want to do this?

[lascivient]

I don't know... a handful of times so I can get into fighting shape. [ lol ]

[erosive]

[ He will need a Saint and a half to get him into fighting shape.

… Good thing Zoya is one. 🙂 ]

You'd need to start now and work daily to get into shape in time for the tourney, Aegon.

[lascivient]

Daily? You want to be in my company daily?

[erosive]

[ She does not hate herself that much, my guy. ]

I said you. Surely you can be trusted to take this seriously, or else you're wasting my time.

[lascivient]

I believe I can commit to some serious wrestling practice every day, I won't waste your time.

[erosive]

I'm not seeing you every day, Aegon. [ It feels like it needs to be said???? ] I have my own training to focus on. I intend to win.

[lascivient]

I intend to win as well. [ Not really., ] Name your pace, it's your decision, Zoya. For an I.O.U. Do we have a deal?

[erosive]

In a couple of days, on the outskirts of the woods. If you piss me off, that will be the only time I entertain this notion of yours.

[ So, I guess he's not breathing. ]

We have a deal on those terms.

[lascivient]

[ "If you piss me off" definitely earns a wall squint. Come on, Zoya. ]

Fine. Deal made, then.

[ Mystical lock clicking into place or something. ]

[erosive]

[ Zoya hangs up? disconnects? whatever—she does the equivalent of that because it's better than giving him the chance to start badgering her again.

She's going to regret this so much. ]
