Alex listened to Alora's words with a soft grunt of agreement. The civilians were to be protected, but perhaps the defenders overconfidence did cloud the judgment. Smirking at Urick's embarrassed look, the tall woman never could help but tease the easily teasable big guy. Even when he looked a big tough guy. As Urick and Gippal shared that look with one another and Alora seemed a little confused, Alex shrugged.

[color=red]"Uri here is pretty shy. And those two cousins are so close knitted they can read one another's minds practically. Cottonhead's always kind of spoken for Uri. Well, when I didn't force Uri to say something. When we first met, I thought they were making fun of me so I'd get mad and punch them."[/color] she snickered before watching as that half Ronso and Ronso she saw earlier having a spar. 

A aspect that peeked the tall red haired woman's interest as she watched the confrontation. When Gippal explained Urick's interest in fighting a Ronso, Alex smirked, her bright blue eyes seeming to burn with cold fire as she raised her hands. Punching her right fist against her left palm. A loud thunderous sound seeming to resound the area from the mere action.

[color=red]"Is that so? It's been a while since we sparred right? How about you try your stuff with me you two? Oh! Alora you can join in too! We can have a outright brawl! And Nai can shoot fire and lightning at us! And maybe those two can join in as well."[/color] Alex said with a smirk, one could almost just see the dangerous burning spirit surround the red haired woman.

[color=red]"Alright then! We'll do that after visiting the temple and whoever wins gets Lady Yuna's homemade food!"[/color] Alex shouted eagerly, seeming to already decide on how it was going to go before heading to the temple with eager determined steps.

Other than Blitzball, fighting was the best thing of Alex. Mostly because she had always demanded it since she could walk. Of course, challenging both Gippal and Urick when they were little and even Naisha before she got sick. Though, Alex would even demand Naisha train once she learned magic and use it against Alex. Even when Gippal and Urick left, she'd challenge those around the island, even Wakka and Tidus. Of course, she still couldn't exactly beat them, but they got to the point of trying to find a excuse not to train. Simply because Alex usually did go all out, with the exception of Naisha.

Alex's steps slowed as she neared the temple, her pace slowing as she entered the temple. Instantly feeling eyes on her. Her blue eyes glared at the priests giving her narrowed looks, as if telling her to get out. The tall woman ignored them and continued examining the temple. Most of Besaid had been kind to her, the temple priests were the exception. They never liked her. They wouldn't explain why, but the only reason they let her enter was because Lady Yuna had to tell them to let her. It irritated her and she used to snap at them, but Lady Yuna did scold her to try and behave when in the temple. It was hard, but she settled with glares now. It just pissed her off that she had no idea what their problem was. Other than apparently she's a bad omen. Something like that.
