Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Men of the Norse don't pass out!" He just added, now of course his Norse side was aiming to continue this but he knew that going on would just end both of them ending to a point where all they could do was laugh or shout at each other. Yet Arenger had a purpose this time to talk with Fornicatus. He had already said his question but Forni had seem to missed it as it seemed. "Captain. Is there anything going?" Then he lowered his voice and moved forward so that only Forni could hear him. "I need to speak to you alone and it's about me and the Dawn Striders." Then he went back to his side of the table. "Maybe we should fight this out in a duel, ... shorty?"

Arenger couldn't hide his teeth behind his big smile. Fornicatus was hooked and now he got a way to get her out of here. He had notice some of the veterans turn their heads. yet they just took note that someone dared to call Fornicatus short and knowing Arenger there was one thing going on. Some was betting if he would say it again. It was a fast deal because betting on dare on Arenger was as easy as it would get. He was one of few who could think it worth to call Fornicatus short. The pain was swift but so was the reward. "Duel? can you reach that high? Not to mention your bad hip!" Then Arenger took a step back and turned to walk to the door. In his head he was counting. This would most likely hurt, yet the best way to get Fornicatus for himself for a short while.

Arenger had been quite clearly that something would go flying. Maybe a bottle or barrel, but the door took him slightly in surprise. Wielding his axe he is able to cut the flying door in half and able to manage through without severe damage. "Now that's uncalled for Captain. The door had not done anything." Now as he knew to go on with the hight thing was something badly but all he had to do was move away from the bar and he could talk. Due to his physics he would be able to get his point through at least. "Captain, remember that I only used such comments to get you alone for a second or two!" Arenger stood behind his axe, not in fear but more or less ready to parry or dodge anything big that would come flying in big numbers and fast.

Arenger noticed it hard to find words with his captain on his head. He decided to try and grab her feet and pull her to the ground. Not over aggressive but it had to be done with some force so that she wouldn't just make a flip in the air. "I stood by you for a long time. I also hold my ground to let the Striders retreat from Winowas after Raigon plunged us in defeat. I followed you and Yata to the shield tournament. I trained your soldiers for the siege of the Striders. I think I have proven my self worthy of a higher rank within the Striders. Not to mention I was one the first Striders. That's my first reason for dragging you out, the second is far more simple. I want to prove that I have the power, determination, strength and trust from and in you to be a officer. That's my reason now let's see how long I last!" A smile came upon Arenger serious face and he spun around his axe. e was ready for his Captain. "Don't hold back too much!"

*brile was just getting started but he didn't want to finish his money yet because he didn't know what laid ahead of him for his journey so he decided he would stop. then just as he finished another bottle and got up and was about to leave when the bartender gave him a free drink just for kicks but this drink wasn't ordinary it was strong and since brile had been stuck out in the wild for so long he didn't get a chance to drink as much rum as he would normally when he was a pirate. but he wasn't one to turn down the offer so he went over to the counter sat down and drank the whole thing in one go. after drinking it he froze and then after a couple seconds of silence he burst out in anonymous laughing and it was obvious that he was drunk he then continued laughing as he got up and waved good as he tried to walk out but couldn't walk in a straight line so he was swaying from right to left he made his way out with saying goodbye to the bartender he spoke* "bye bob" *the bartender then got a pissed look on his face he then exclaimed* "MY NAME IS CARLOS!!!!!" *he said angrily as brile walked out completely drunk*

It seemed as if the two characters were at a standoff as Knex watched to see what would unravel. As much as he needed to get the information he needed, he had to wait for these to to be finished before he could really do anything at all, except complain.
"Oh, would you two start fighting already..." He whispered to himself, making sure he was the only one who could hear him speak. He didn't want to get involved with the battle by throwing that out there, he was simply a spectator wishing to see blood spill.

*brile passed out infront of the hotel he then slowly opened his eyes not knowing what happened. he only woke up to see this guy and the lady from the port fighting. he then slowly got to his feet and then saw the lady use fire he was a little shocked but he stood there observing her movement realizing that even he himself wouldn't stand a chance against her but still didn't doubt himself and his capabilities*
