"Actually," You place a hand on Ramza's shoulder to stop him from walking off. "I think we should let it ride."
"Hoh? Planning to fight some more?" He turns to regard you curiously.
"In a sense. I think we should do a team fight. All three of us! It'll be fun." You say with a grin.
"...It could do well to show off what we're capable of." Val admits.
"Good points, good points..." Ramza rubs his chin as he considers it for a few moments. "What the hell, why not? If nothing else, it's good practice. One doesn't become the next King of Pirates by slacking!"
"That's the spirit, brother!" You clap him on the back, sending him stumbling forward once again. Damn it, Ramza, you twig - if you'd just bulked up a bit that wouldn't happen ever single time! You make sure not to voice that to him, though - you're sure he's probably sensitive about the teeny tiny nature of his muscles compared to your glorious guns.
"Damn it, Gigas! You're going to make me split my face open on the ground doing that shit one of these days. You really gotta get your strength under control, man." He gripes, making you feel suddenly sheepish. You may or may not have a bit of red in your face now, and you purposefully look off to the side to avoid any kind of eye contact.
"Right." Is all you really say.
Ramza heads back over to Lobo to sign you all up, who seems to be directing people in taking the empty box back out of the arena. Already, a new box is being brought in, and an unfamiliar figure stands opposite of the box, no doubt the next contender in the monster matches. His attire is a mishmash of different elements similar to Val's, though his hat is considerably less pointy than your resident spellslinger's, and he has notably armoured limbs. Rather than a bandana covering the man's mouth, he seems to have a birdlike mask that obscures the entirety of his face, with thick smoky lenses for him to peer out of - you have the feeling that it should remind you of something, but you're not sure what. Your attention is snapped off him with Ramza calls out to you.
"Hey, get over here!" He commands, and you oblige, jogging over to him. Val seems to do the same, flanking your captain's oppsite side.
"What's up?" You ask.
