He's rubbing a hand through his hair, rings-covered fingers sneaking through the curls. His face is rosy, red patches dapple his nose and cheeks. The top of his ears are reddish as well, as much as I can see from under his hair.

"For some time past. Wouldn't think that your training would be this long." He explains, releasing a faint shigh.

"You know, he loves to say 'We didn't come here to play'. He's pretty dour about training."

"Yeah, I could imagine."

He hides his hands in his jacket's pockets, in a long fabric one. It draws the attention to the fact that the quadrille clothing is already buried in raindrops. The weather in this town is just truly abominable. I bet he'd rejoice at the warmth, just like me.

A smirk passes over my face when I say, "Wanna sneak into the stadium?"
