I'm trying to be polite and assume that you're not drunk out of your mind.

[yeah alright it's time to just... start bending some water from the grass, sorry grass but he's gonna dehydrate you to ice punch this guy maybe]

[indensity]

I'm not.

[He thinks. He's a lightweight, but he only had one glass. But the idea throws him off enough that he actually pulls back a little, relaxing his grip just slightly -

- and he doesn't see the ice coming at all. It hits him in the jaw, knocking him backwards, making him grunt in pain. He stumbles, but he doesn't fall.]

That's not polite.

[bloodisthicker]

Well, neither is threatening to snap someone's neck out of the blue.

[He's going to try and put some distance between him and this fuckin weirdo then, so he can at least be more comfortable about this weird interaction.]

And yet, here you were.

[indensity]

[The distance helps. Chuuya feels less compelled to grab the guy again so he can keep whispering threats at him. He rubs at his jaw, feeling really weird suddenly. So he's going to focus on what's important instead of what he himself just did:]

But what was that?

[Because now he's curious.]

[bloodisthicker]

It's called waterbending.

[He just kind of melts the ice to have water at the ready then...]

I think one of these days I'm just going to write up a flyer that explains it, but basically I can control water.

[indensity]

And you use it to fight?

[Chuuya is used to some pretty weird abilities, so he's not even going to question it. He just makes a mental note to keep track of water sources around this guy.]

Or do you just make ice for your drinks?

[bloodisthicker]

What can I say? It's got a wide variety of applications for both combat and daily life.

[...well, if Chuuya's just going to talk, he won't try and beat the shit out of him or anything. That's not civil!]

[indensity]

[The effect of the wine has definitely lessened, so he won't try to grab him again. Not that he's going to apologize for it.]

Oh yeah? You'll have to show me sometime.

[...That still does sound like a challenge, though.]

[bloodisthicker]

Keep going the way you have been and I just might.

[...maybe he shouldn’t be so pissy but you know what]

[indensity]

Go on. Try it.

[He holds his arms out from his body, as if in invitation. There is no way this can go wrong, after all. ]

[bloodisthicker]

...

[he thinks about it.]

You’ve stopped making a nuisance of yourself at this point, so I don’t really feel the need to. In fact, I think I’m done here.

[being the bigger man... is Cool...]

[indensity]

[Chuuya waves him off with a hand.]

Sure. Run away.

[bloodisthicker]

[...don’t take the bait, Tarrlok. Don’t take the bait. As much as you definitely want to freeze his face off.]

I’m just not in the mood for any more of that today. Try and avoid any more drink before you annoy someone who won’t be gracious enough to leave you be once they’ve shaken you off.

[indensity]

But where's the fun in that?

[Hey, when you love fighting, drinking something that makes you challenge people isn't the worst thing that can happen at all.]

[bloodisthicker]

I'm sure you can find someone who's far more interested in just... fighting for no reason somewhere else. Enjoy getting arrested for disorderly conduct, I suppose.

[indensity]

That's never been something I have to worry about.

[bloodisthicker]

Oh, really? Sounds like the police aren’t doing their jobs where you’re from.

[but when do they ever, honestly.]

[indensity]

It's not their fault they can't touch me.

[Too many cops are paid off by Chuuya's Organization, honestly, though Chuuya would be cocky about it anyway.]

[bloodisthicker]

[oh, you’re actually criminal scum. HOW SURPRISED IS TARRLOK RIGHT NOW? NOT VERY.]

That depends on why they can’t touch you. It’s just going to take someone with the right approach in the end.

[indensity]

[Hey, he might be criminal, but he's not scum, how rude.]

Someone like you?

[bloodisthicker]

[all criminals are scum.]

Maybe so. I'd hope I'm not the only competent individual with an interest in the rule of law here.

[indensity]

[So rude.]

Competent? Really? [griiiin.] You're not that impressive so far.

[bloodisthicker]

You could always give me a reason to impress you, you know.

[indensity]

Oh, so you're that type.

[Chuuya shoves his hands in his pockets, giving him an unimpressed look.]

Too scared to start a fight, so you're hoping I'll do it for you. You probably don't care what I do when you're not looking.

[bloodisthicker]

...

That's bait.

[It's said more to himself because boy does he ever want to do a violence right now, but.]

Granted, all you've done is talk yourself up and threaten me for a second. I've actually given you a taste of what I can do.
