Iono shouldn't have battled (Y)...

He even told her that it was a bad idea.

Those eyes... they were so sharp... it was like every move she was going to make (Y) already knew.

It was scary... yet also refreshing, in a weird way.

Compared to the creepy lust filled looks she usually got, the cold analytical look of someone who wasn't looking at her body but right in her eyes was nice.

He also helped Bellibolt, so Iono couldn't hold a grudge.

She was currently in the infirmary, she wasn't injured, but (Y) brought her here for some reason.

He left to get her a drink to help her cool down, he probably also thought she was mad at him...

Iono layed sprawled out on one of the beds, just thinking.

(Y): "Hey I'm back. I didn't know what you like so I got you water. It's always a safe bet."

(Y) walks into the infermery with a giant bottle of water. He walked over and gave it to her as she sat up on the bed.

(Y) sits down in a chair besides the bed.

Lillith was on his shoulder drinking a soda with a silly straw... the sight made Iono smile.

An ackward silence overtook the infermery...

Iono looked over to (Y) who looked like he was trying to to interact but couldn't.

Iono couldn't blame him though... she also didn't know what to say...

God why was she so ackward here! She usually had high energy and could talk to anyone.

(Y): "Hey... I'm uh... I'm sorry for what happened..."

(Y) finally broke the silence with an apology.

Iono: "No, no! It's fine!"

(Y): "But it's not... I've been training my body and mind since I was 5, and yet when I get into battle I always get..."

(Y) sighs as Lillith pats his shoulder.

(Y): "Look when I battle I tend to see it as a life or death situation... when me and Lillith battle together that feeling is amplified... When we battle we take it seriously, and are willing to do anything to win... hence the new moves... we tend to look like villains, and in some cases... its kind of fun... but... I feel bad most of the time. I just get into this mood when battling..."

Iono: "It's okay... I kind of understand. I play a lot of games online a few MMO's and being the bad guy can be fun."

(Y): "MMO? That's a new one. I just learned what a streamer was..."

Iono: "Really? Did you... um watch any of my streams?"

(Y): "I tuned in once, but the chatting aspect was a bit too much... having that many anonymous eyes on a person that they see as a God is just... not very inviting."

Iono: "I get that... The worse part is I have to play into that! The algorithm is so tough to manage!"

(Y): "I'm sure it is. I won't pretend to know much about technology. I've only started using it when I got here."

Iono: "Oh right! The director said you were a Shaolin Monk? I've heard of the name before but not much else."

(Y): "Yes I'm a Monk... although I don't really act like one. We train our bodies and minds to the limit of humanity and beyond that. We are Monks that focus on Marshal Arts, and Combat. Although the combat isn't really anything more then a form if exercise."
