((As always, it's just another day. Again, you're fixtured up against Valka and as always, you took the beating. You just couldn't get through her despite trying your best. Your sword always cracked, and afterwards? You were cooked, always beaten to a pulp. It's hard to see her for what she already is.. knowing what's been going on recently.))

Just as you woke up, the machine finishes whirring. As always, she's there in a slightly.. revealing casual fit. It's been like this ever since the first defeat and has been going on since. Even after everything.. one still lingered. When she spoke, her voice. Soft spoken and nothing like her physique. So it's hard when she towers over you, trying to keep up a facade as you walked out with her.

Other fighters feared the sight of her, but seeing a random like you beside her, not fearing or anything made you look stupid. But who were you to care? You knew Valka more than the rest here.. and if she was willing to, she'd even carry you if she wanted.. but she wasn't prepared for that yet. Once in the cafeteria, you both got the daily food given and headed straight back to the quieter side of the arena where you sat against a cold, but nice outview of the city outside. Normal civilians walked with freedom, not knowing they live near a whole fighting gig. You ate, before hearing her sigh, again soft.

"H-Hey..?"
