When Dorothea turns to her opponent, she offers a smile and a flip of her hair. "Oh, well! Aren't I lucky? To be up against someone as cute as yourself, I mean." Still, perhaps she can speak more to Elincia once the battle is over. She's hardly about to say no to new friends, even if they are in different classes. For now, there's a battle to be had. She readies her spell as her Thoron magic leaves her side.
( Dorothea rolls to attack. 16-2, 14. -2.5 damage w/Magic +2. )
She may not know Elincia all too well, but she's certain she's up against a strong opponent. This just means the songstress will have to work extra hard!
Elincia manages a cheery smile to Dorothea before they start. This is a mock battle and whilst she intends to take it seriously and give it her all, at the end of the day, it's not something to hold grudges over. Especially when her opponent is such a sweetheart.
"Hehe, thanks. You're very beautiful yourself, although that won't be enough to hold me back." She sticks her tongue out in jest and nearly regrets it as a bolt of lightning hits her in the side. It smarts but she can't just give up. Steadying herself on Chrysaor's back, she takes a deep breath and prepares a spell of her own.
(Elincia rolls to counterattack. 7! Barely hit -1 damage)
Her own arms shake, still shocked by the electricity of Dorothea's spell. Her aim is off but she at least manages to land the spell without looking like a total fool. She laughs sheepishly.
"Not that you'd need me to, but it's not over yet!"
With the initiative in her court, Elincia readies herself to strike. She focuses on her studies, on Thoron and whispers incantations under her breath. Lightning crackles at her finger tips, gathering in the palm of her hand. She let’s loose.
(Elincia rolls to attack. 10! Barely hit -1 damage)
Her aim is only slightly better but her speed is improving at least. She readies herself for Dorothea’s counterattack, preparing herself to respond in kind.
