The Vagrant
Polaris looks at Senrion and smiles.
"Well, what are your impressions of this realm we are in?"

"Last time I saw my grandfather, he was in the hospital. That was over a year ago. I'm not sure if he's still alive...", he mutters to Vulpus.
He looks at Mike.
"...No, but... well, I'm claustrophobic, alright?"
He then looks at Femji again.
"Are you sure you're alright?"
He suddenly steps in front of her, looking at her.
"...You look a bit red. Do you have a fever?"
In the year 202X, all is devastation... Soon, any last shred of hope had by the saintliest optimist shall die and decay.
"It's certainly an interesting place, that's for sure," Senrion says to Polaris, smiling back at her. "And, of course, I got to meet you here, which is definitely something that I like about this place."
"Really? This place doesn't seem all that tight to me." Ken pours some vodka for the two of them. "Thanks." "You're welcome.
*BK's sudden appearance this close to Femji causes her to react with surprise.*
Um... uh... I... um...
*She blushes harder and starts stammering.*
So... um... it's like... er...
*Beat.*
...Do you know what a crush is?
The fact that only 140 characters are allowed here is honestly so disappointing to me.
"A crush? Yeah, that's when you really like somebody, right?"
He looks a bit nervous at the wodka when he notices it.
Why the wodka makes him nervous? He can't handle alcohol. One or two glasses, and he's as drunk as can be.

"Thank you for the compliment, Senrion."
Polaris smiles softly.
"Indeed, meeting you is one of the things why I appreciate this place."
Creator of the Avatar Arena and its Discord server.
...Yeah...
*Beat, during which time Femji glances up to try to look BK in the eyes.*

"Oh, you're quite welcome, Polaris," Senrion says to Polaris, smiling right back at her. "I don't think I've ever met a mage as skilled, intelligent, and kindhearted as you... And I have this place to thank for that."
@Engie: I wonder if Fenji knows that the Black King is the Arena's Bigger Bad. Also, is it just me or do your characters seem to have a habit of falling in love very easily?

Peter glances at BK's reaction, then drinks the vodka. A moment later, he breathes fire through his nostrils and mouth to burn off the alcohol, the stream narrowly missing BK.
Ken chuckles at Peter's antics. "Still can't handle alcohol, can you?"
Femji will see the Black King's purple coated eyes. Though, if she looks very closely, she might get a glimpse of his real eye color. A warm reddish-dark brown.
The Black King doesn't look too bothered by someone looking in his eyes. It does confuse him though.
Then the look is broken as he jumps from the narrowly missing flame.

Damian walks in, and tries to stay hidden from the others.
Is this a Jo Jo reference?
She doesn't know. I'm half-expecting D to show up from nowhere, then have Hazama deliver that fact to her.
*She flicks a glare of irritation at Peter's moment killer, then returns to looking at BK.*
...In that case... I think I'm getting a crush on you. Nya~

"Thank you," Polaris says, still smiling.
"And you are also wise beyond your years, which I like."
Creator of the Avatar Arena and its Discord server.
"Well, I wouldn't have expected someone like you to get scared like that." Peter says to BK.
"Well, if no one's gonna drink this..." Ken takes the vodka glass and drinks it. Unlike Peter, he doesn't breathe out fire afterwards.
My son is a dumbass
"At least one of you can drink. Might I join you?"
Damien with some hesitation, begins moving towards the group.
Is this a Jo Jo reference?
"Why, thank you very much, Polaris," Senrion says to Polaris, still smiling back as he takes a step closer to her. "To say that I'm lucky to have met you... would be the understatement of the century, to say the least..."

"Hey, I'm much more careful than before.", he says to Peter.
He then smiles at Femji.
"Oh, well, that's ni-"
He then looks shocked.
"W-what!? On ME!?"
He looks nervous. And despite, well, who he is, he actually slightly blushes.
"U-uh... g-give me a second..."
He turns around and walks a bit further, so that he can think in peace.
A crush? On me? Nobody's ever has a crush on me before. This is weird and new to me... I don't really dislike it, and she looks like a nice girl... I may-
He then blinks, and he puts his hand on his head. He looks... depressed.
No... no... remember your goal. Remember what you're here for. If I bond with people, it's just going to be so much harder. And a relationship... ah...
He shakes his head.
Why couldn't this have happened in my own world!? Back then!? When I still had a chance to find someone!? I'm not here to form bonds! Don't forget what you came here for! Even if I've had to fool people into being my friends... agh, those bonds are already weighing me down! A relationship added to that... it'd be too much. I wouldn't be able to continue this game! My only chance would be gone forever!
He sits down, not looking too well.
If I have a relationship, I won't be able to carry out my goals. This horrible, sadistic game of mine, would be useless...'
He sighs.
As much as I want to accept... I can't... I just can't...
He then gets up and slowly walks to Femji. He looks at her, sad.
"...I'm... sorry. I can't... return your feelings...", he says. His voice shows clear regret.

"Sure, why not?" Ken pours another round for the three. Peter drinks his glass, and his body catches fire. He's completely nonchalant about this.

Polaris chuckles, looking at Senrion.
"That is very flattering, I must say... meeting you here must be a blessing."

Damian quietly says "Um, excuse me? Does anyone know where I am? I woke up here a few hours ago with no memory of the past six months"

*Beat.*
...
*She removes her glasses, then raises her tail up to cover her eyes, breathing deeply. It's clear she's trying to avoid letting emotion get to her...*

Vulpus just downs his glas, no motion on his face.
"Hm? I don't seem like I'm about to try to murder you, am I?" Peter says to BK. It's unclear whether he's joking, and if he remembers the last time they met.
Ken joins him.
