as soon as they were allowed back to the floor, dante had all but collapsed onto a couch in the district two suite, an arm thrown over his eyes—makeup be damned right now. he was exhausted and those bruises that dotted his body ached. there was medicine, of course. he was just too tired to get it right now. and laying down did wonders for the pain. he exhales slowly, a shakiness to it that was not often heard. the interviews were done. one less thing to worry about.
and one more sign that the arena was so close.
the sound of approaching footsteps has his arm moving, some barbed insult ready to fly out until he notices auggie, expression softening slightly. "...the purple was a hit again. you get lectured for it too?" he pauses. "it is better if they think it was my idea, you know that...right?"
