[attr="class","icon"] Rhea turned back and grinned toothily at the redhead, [break][break]
“Oh? Is it all that unexpected?” [break][break]
She leaned back against the counter, sparing one more sidelong glance to her new and most favorite weapon in her arsenal before she returned her full attention to the bladesmith, [break][break]
“It takes a tactical mind to both handle a blade and to decisively command your Pokemon. Knowing when to guard, what stance to take, and what weapon to use is a lot like understanding type advantages, or utilizing status conditions.” [break][break]
Though, in truth, there were many times when it was far more optimal to let her Pokemon handle the brawling than it was to get involved herself, Rhea had to admit. But where was the fun in that? [break][break]
“Oh, you needn't change a thing!” Rhea insisted, perhaps a little too emphatically when Aurelie smiled all the wider at her. She cleared her throat with a bashful cough before continuing, [break][break]
“It's actually a bit of both. I'm a mercenary, and my contract was recently purchased by your... associates. In truth, I've only recently begun work in the region.” [break][break]
It might not have been the most valorous way to live, selling her skills to the highest bidder, but it was a lifestyle that Rhea had become quite accustomed to. The pay was excellent and there was always a fight to be had; what else could she ask for? [break][break]
Suddenly, a little chime rang out from some pocket at Rhea's side. Fishing out her phone, the merc stared at the screen for a moment before dismissing the notification and stowing the device away, [break][break]
“Though, speaking of boats, it appears I have a ride to catch.” [break][break]
Rhea reached for the blade and paused a moment, feeling a sudden pang of something bittersweet. When was the last time she'd had a chance to talk to a like-minded individual? And hell, when was the last time she had actually talked to someone who had taken any sort of interest in her? [break][break]
No, she couldn't let an opportunity like this go to waste. She secured the blade in its scabbard to her side, and the weapon sat upon her sword belt as though it was always meant to go there. Bright eyes flicked back to Aurelie with something that almost looked a little like pleading, [break][break]
“Would you like to accompany me?” [break][break]
She stopped a moment to glance around the shop; they were the only folks here, but that didn't mean that another customer couldn't waltz in at any moment, [break][break]
“If, uh, you aren't otherwise preoccupied.” [break][break] [newclass=".rheaas"]--accent:#6358a2; position:relative; z-index:1; overflow:hidden; [/newclass] [newclass=".rheaas blockquote"]width:320px; height:auto; background-color: #292929; text-align: justify; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding: 30px; padding-bottom: 40px; padding-top: 25px; border-left: 5px #252525 solid; border-right: 5px #252525 solid;border-top: 5px #252525 solid; line-height: 15.5px; letter-spacing: .7px; font-size:12px;[/newclass] [newclass=".rheaas .icon"]background-image:url(https://i.imgur.com/TLdCnx8.png); height:100px; width:100px; margin:-60px 29px 19px 10px; float:left; border-radius:10px; border:4px var(--accent) solid; outline:10px #252525 solid;[/newclass] [newclass=".rheaas blockquote b, .rheaas blockquote i"]color:var(--accent); } .rheaas blockquote b { font-size:14px!important } .rheaas blockquote u { font-style:italic; color:var(--accent); text-decoration:underline dotted; border-bottom:none; letter-spacing:1px; [/newclass] [newclass=".rheaas .top"]background-color:#222222; background-image:url(https://image.ibb.co/dMFuMc/flower.png); background-size: cover; width: 370px; height: 60px; text-align: center; margin-left:auto; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: -50px; padding: 10px 10px 10px 0px; border-radius: 8px 8px 0px 0px; border: 5px #252525 solid;[/newclass] [newclass=".rheaas .bottom"]background-color:#222222; background-image:url(https://image.ibb.co/dMFuMc/flower.png); background-size: cover; width: 310px; height: auto; text-align: center; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; margin-top:-60px; padding: 10px 35px 10px; border-radius: 0px 0px 8px 8px; border: 5px #252525 solid; line-height: 15.5px; letter-spacing: .7px; font-size:12px;[/newclass] [newclass=".rheaas .bottom a"]font:bold 15px 'Poppins';[/newclass] [newclass=".rheaas .bottom b, .rheaas .bottom i"]color:var(--accent); } .rheaas .bottom b { font-size:14px!important } .rheaas .bottom u { font-style:italic; color:var(--accent); text-decoration:underline solid; border-bottom:none; letter-spacing:1px; [/newclass] [newclass=".rheaas .credit a"]color:var(--accent); font-size:12px; position:absolute; z-index:99; right:130px; bottom:10px; opacity:0.3;[/newclass]
