❝ Did you train some of the players ? ❞ Parvati was curious to know. Alicia’s job always seemed a bit mysterious to her.  ❝ I hope not the ones on the losing team. ❞ That would blow. They could be petty and blame their poor performance on Alicia and not themselves. ( @aliciaspinncts​ )

THE BEAST WAS MAGNIFICENT  ,  BOLD in its walk and seemingly DANGEROUS in appearance and it did not take the wizard long to notice it. after all  ,  when he had chosen such a task in the first place  ,  he had been briefed on how DIFFICULT it may be for him to accomplish it --- though  ,  in his opinion  ,  anything would be better than participating in the ongoing wars. 

this was his escape  ,  yes  ,  but it was also one that he knew BETTER than to take lightly. and surely  ,  this creature  ,  shouldn’t be as hard to ‘ tame ’ as many of the others made it out to be  ,  right ? 

he could only assume so.

“  you’re certainly a lot larger than i expected. ” and a lot more INTIMIDATING  as well  ,  though howl’s cowardice was well hidden beneath a practiced smile. if anything  ,  the wizard found that he was more FEARFUL of people and the damage they could do to one another as opposed to anything else. and while maintaining a fair distance away from the dragon  ,  his form at ease to show that he meant no harm  ,  howl would continue trying to .... well  ,  befriend it  ,  as best he can --- the start of him actually going through with his assignment  ,  of course. “  i don’t suspect you to be a vegetarian now  ,  are you ? ”

TO BE COMPLETELY FAIR  ,  the wizard shouldn’t be the ONLY one getting the blame pinned on him.  after all  ,  if the old brute hadn’t tried to stop him and his companion from leaving ---- he wouldn’t have had the need to send the man walking backwards and CONVENIENTLY into his other friends  ,  who were also trying to cause a scene.  this entire night had flipped into a disaster in the making quicker than he could’ve imagined and yet  ,  much to his surprise  ,  the young girl behind him hadn’t asked to LEAVE.

not even when the bartender shouted profanity at them in an unknown language and certainly not when howl had to GENTLY slide her away from an oncoming vase. 

>but he didn’t blame her.  if he were being honest --- this was probably the MOST excitement he’s had in a while  ,  outside of the king’s tasks and he could only assume she felt the same way. 

“  gentlemen , ”  and his tone  ,  of course  ,  was ever so light and casual  ,  while waving away another male who was trying to sneak in a punch at him from the side. “  there’s really no need for this to be happening. ”

and turning to look at the younger girl  ,  howl would offer a smile and a curious raise of his eyebrows. 

“  ------------- don’t tell me you’re actually enjoying this  ,  miss.  ”
