A wise man once advised his students, "[i]A fighter must see underneath the underneath,[/i]" - to see what lies between the lines, and furthermore, between those lines. 

As Juniper walked her through, John was studying the underside of the cityscape; learning with her crimson eyes, as she kept her glasses perched in her hair. It was risky to maintain her [Amaterasu's Eyes] for extended periods of time, but she'd surely get her hands on a Potion of Regeneration at some point in this place. In the meantime, she followed Juniper as she slipped through the under-cityscape with ease; as if, she were flying over the roads and into side paths, before coming to a stop before a rather open business front.

Lowering her glasses, John massaged her eyes for a moment, as she normalized her sight, and let the Mana Drain do its work. Not to be betrayed by its glitzy facade, the inside lacked the subtlety that was expected of the environment contained - likely, in such a lawless place, they weren't expecting a crackdown any time soon. It was almost disappointing in a way; no risk, no excitement, just an underground gladiatorial arena for the poor fools that needed a quick, private means to make some Mora and ends meets.

It turned her stomach, but nausea was tolerable. As such, she turned the moment into an opportunity, and looked at the clown in the suit with his cane. "[color=848884]I'm just here to earn enough to open a business,[/color]" she says, "[color=848884]After that, we'll see if we cross paths again. I don't know anything about the seven out of ten over there.[/color]"

"[color=34A56F]Above-average,[/color]" Juniper asks, smirking.

"[color=848884]Three points off for being dressed,[/color]" John says smoothly. "[color=848884]Now, let's talk about how I'm supposed to enter a match with no money.[/color]"

"[color=34A56F]I'll put her up. KO Match, No Weapons, Victory,[/color]" Juniper says, "[color=34A56F]I've seen her talent with weapons, I wanna see it raw.[/color]"

John narrowed her eyes, and reached up to loosen her ponytail. "[color=848884]This stays on me,[/color]" she says, presenting her Vision.

"[color=34A56F]That's fine with me. Plenty of Vision users drift through her on hard times. We match them together, and lucky you, we have a few awaiting a match,[/color]" Juniper says, "[color=34A56F]So, so, sound kosher, Bossman?[/color]"
