voice; un: noxxed, a day after Teresagate

[sassery]

WHO: Nox and anyone else
WHERE: Libra app
WHEN: Post Teresagate
WHAT: FIGHT CLUB FIGHT CLUB
WARNINGS: Swearing, a lot of swearing

[This is the sound of someone turning on the feed because good fucking god this is a wholeass mess.]

Friendly fucking reminder that fight club's around for those who need it. Twice a month, weekends usually, but I'm gonna make an exception and make it three this month. We need it.

Obviously since it's a club, there's rules:

[No one can see it, but Nox lifts a finger for each rule as he says them.]

1. Don't talk about Fight Club outside the app.
2. Don't talk about Fight Club outside the app.
3. You fight until someone taps out. If you keep pushing past that you're not gonna fucking like it when I step in.
4. The warehouse's separated into three parts. Hand to hand, training, and all-out. If you fuck around in another area that you shouldn't be in, you're gonna find out.
5. Just because I call it the "all-out" section doesn't mean you can just up and decide to do collateral. We're still inside the city and I don't want eyes on the place. Got it?

[He huffs, and then continues.]

[NOW FILTERED:]

Place is here. [A location is put here.] Time starts at 2PM, we'll go till 8 usually, sometimes shorter. Depends on how people feel.

[FILTER OFF.

A beat, and then-]

Oh, and Teresa, if you're even paying attention, fuck off.

".... A fight club. Seriously?"

She really shouldn't be surprised, and yet.

[sassery]

"Yeah, seriously. Some of us need a way to get out emotions or energy, and this is probably one of the best ways to do it."

Demons gotta fight, it's how things go. Besides, some people just live for it.

[thewarriorqueen]

"Usually people just go into wrestling or boxing or something. Or hockey."

What would hockey be without the fights?

"Is collateral damage that big a concern?"

[sassery]

He can't help but let out a stifled laugh. "Yeah, most people. We're not most people. A bunch of us aren't, at least." He's not, he knows his family isn't, and honestly, that's just fine with him. Better to be interesting and exciting than boring and normal.

Hockey? Boy, that's a thing he barely pays attention to these days.

"Not always, but some of us tend to forget because we get way too into the fight itself. I'd rather not cause shit that can actually be seen or get into the city itself, y'know?" Knowing how some of the fighters here are, better to keep one step ahead of something potentially happening in the future.

[thewarriorqueen]

"I suppose it's true that most people don't suddenly wake up one day to strange magical powers or mythical beasts in their apartments."

She was still not over the griffin. Did you have any idea how much a griffin eats??

"But it's still a concern because you can cause that kind of damage." ... "Are there really that many people like that?"

[sassery]

"Yeah, no kidding. It's a lot to wake up to for sure."

There's so much he's gone through in the past two years, so not too much surprises him anymore. There may be a few things here and there, but overall, Nox tends to roll with the punches.

"There are people like that, yeah. How many, though? No fucking clue." He knows his family can, and there's definitely gods here and there that have awoken at some point or another. Kaisou is just like that.

[thewarriorqueen]

Meredith had only been dealing with all this insanity for maybe two months. She was still very much reeling from it all.

"And here I thought just suddenly having to seriously worry about accidentally breaking things around the house if I'm too rough, or possibly cracking someone's bones at HEMA was bad enough..."

She would really rather not find herself with more new powers. Unfortunately, she would likely not get any say in the matter.

Dumbass, don't drop the location on the post! Or filter it!

[sassery]

Ah fuck- was fucking irritated enough that it slipped my mind. Filtered it. Christ did this bitch get on my nerves.

[drewthetower]

Same, fuck. I did a reading on her and ugh.

[Just. Ugh.]

I'll start looking for a back up warehouse, just in case.

[sassery]

Wait, shit, really?

[He usually doesn't get mad at things like this- not as much as he did in his past life, at least.]

Appreciate it, honestly- I'll move the whole damn place if I've gotta. Last thing we need is anyone showing up to cause problems: Black Order or Zodiac alike.

[drewthetower]

Yeah, lemme get the photo I took--

[Insert a photo of Queen of Wands Reversed and The Lovers Upright, Three of Swords Upright and Queen of Swords Reversed.]

First two are her past motives, second two are her current ones. So that's selfish insecurity involving a partnership for the first half, and heartbreak turning to cruelty and bitterness for the second half. I've never gotten a reading this vile before.

[sassery]

Holy shit.

[The image has him biting the inside of his lip, tense and ready to snap at something, but not finding anything to do so with.]

That's got the most rancid vibes I've ever heard of. What the fuck is wrong with this bitch, christ.

[drewthetower]

From what I've heard? So fucking much. There's nuclear waste less toxic than this bitch, okay? Just. Ugh.

[loupmorque]

...Something like this actually exists in the city???

People sure do follow that first rule, it's the first I've heard of it.
Count me in.

I'll be there bright and early, you can count on it.
I've been needing to get some practice in that isn't fighting against a motionless sack of beans.

[sassery]

You bet your ass it does. Been a bit of a low sorta deal because we'd rather not cause problems, y'know?

[They have this to blow off steam and to also get out any energy they may have. The last thing anyone wants is to make this sort of thing harder to do or have happen as a result.]

That's a fucking mood, though. Can't exactly get better or at least know you're doing well without actually seeing the results, yeah? See you then.

[loupmorque]

Hey I get it, 100%. Lots of normal people in this city--more than there are magically tuned folks like ourselves, at least. Best keep the majority of the population in a comfortable place where they don't have to be constantly worrying about us, yeah?

[ magic should be only used openly to save people, in his opinion. ]

And that's exactly it. I'm sure the punching bag can take a whalloping, but it also isn't a good give a good measure of my actual skill.
I want to check my fists against someone who can actually give as well as take.

[sassery]

Yeah, keeping them safe and comfortable is usually top of the docket. Last thing I want is to have anyone on my ass for problems that could've been avoided, or someone getting hurt.

[Look at that, like-minded people! Amazing.]

Trust me, you'll find that challenge here. There's plenty to go around for whatever you're willing to bring.

[bebest]

Wow, you mean you wanna pass on the chance to slap her around a little? I mean, I'm p.sure no one in the whole city would mind if you did.

[sassery]

I mean, do you really wanna see what happens when I do? It's not pretty, and I'm almost positive it wouldn't help people in the long run.

[Murder would be nice, but it'd cause more problems with the Order, he's pretty sure.]

[bebest]

...Okay, that's probably fair. But god if it wouldn't be satisfying for like, a tiny amount of time. You think if we're obnoxious enough to her she'll just leave?

[sassery]

Don't have to tell me twice, I wouldn't hesitate otherwise.

[Murder? MURDER. If only.]

God I fucking wish. I tried pissing her off and she just ignored me. So no, she'll probably stick around, like a fucking leech.

[bebest]

Oh boo. The least she could do is turn into a salty bitch like literally ANY normal person.

[illucesco]

We have a fight club?

...d'you mind if I just sit in and take notes?

[sassery]

Hell yeah, feel free to. We've got plenty of watchers to go with the fighters. Sometimes it just helps to watch instead of participate, y'know?

[illucesco]

[wryly:] What’s a match without an audience?

[A pause.]

I can make healing potions. So if you want I can make a batch of them in case of anything serious.

[sassery]

That's one way to think about it. Get the action and the vibes going all in one.

[He exhales.]

Good, honestly I think that'll work just fine with all who we've got in this club overall.

[illucesco]

Lotta injuries, huh? [Well, it is a fight club, Noct.] I do have to say, if they're really serious injuries, best to get to a hospital. Healing potions can only work so far.

[sassery]

Nah, if it gets that bad I usually step in. And we also have healers on the side just in case. I'm not risking them getting asked a million questions by the non-Libra folk, you know?

[illucesco]

...yeah, it would be tough to explain a fight club like this to anyone not on the app. [Hell, a few months ago Noctis would be more than a little concerned about the presence of a fight club at all.]

Hey, just a question about training: powers on or off?

[sassery]

Not to mention people possibly sniffing around and finding something they shouldn't. [It took him and Bakugou ages to find a good spot, and he'll move it if he has to- but it's a bit of a pride and joy thing for him.]

Depends on how powerful we're talking. Place has three spots you can fight or train: an actual training area for people to learn stuff, a hand to hand area for brawls and wrestling and the like, and the tarmac outside is for magic and really big powers. If it's shit that'll cause collateral, you're gonna have to hold back. Last thing I want is for people actually in the city to get hurt from a stray spell or attack.
