[b][color=D3943B]Time:[/color][/b] Morning
[b][color=E0C114]Location:[/color][/b] Gaurav Village
[b][color=D3943B]Interactions:[/color][/b] Menzai [@samreaper]
[b][color=E0C114]Equipment:[/color][/b] 2 shot glasses, 300 Amas total, Flowers from Phia, Dante’s cellphone, and Dante’s knife[hr]

Darius had been glaring at Dante until the moment Menzai cut the tension between the twins in an instant. He was on the verge of being defiant after what Dante pulled but respected Menzai’s order. Hopping off of the elevated earth, Darius approached Dante and took a place beside him, arms crossed. 

And then it started. Menzai was verbally tearing into them in a way the two had never experienced before. His sheer disappointment was coupled with a stark tone, but as harsh as it was, Menzai was right. The twins couldn’t even dispute it. If not for the risk of angering Menzai further, they would have expressed it sooner. Instead, they quietly listened. For Dante, it brought him back to the days when he was a grunt in basic combat training getting grilled by some crusty old drill sergeant. While Darius could compare it to his long-retired-from-the-ring trainers that got sick of his bullshit every now and again. The two of them were a lot alike when it came to needing strident discipline. They were a couple of knuckleheads after all.

[color=D3943B]“Nah, you’re right.”[/color] Darius answered before taking a look at what he had done without even thinking. His arms dropped to his side as there was no defending his rash actions. [color=D3943B]“We were being stupid and fucking things up. Sorry,”[/color] He apologized with a bow of his head.

[color=E0C114]“I apologize as well, Menzai. We got out of hand. I will try to keep competition out of training.”[/color] Dante said finally speaking after he knew Menzai was done. He looked to his brother and placed a hand on his head [color=E0C114]“I really am sorry. I won’t pull anything like that again on you.”[/color] Dante had a hard time when Darius was upset and he had caused it this time which now tugged at his conscience.  

[color=D3943B]“Um.”[/color] Darius side-stepped away from Dante to escape the hand on his head. [color=D3943B]“One. Don’t pull anything like [i]that[/i] on me, either. What am I to you, your kid? Two. As long as the competition is [i]healthy[/i], I think it can actually help us improve. We just gotta listen to our trainer. Right, Mr. Menzai?”[/color] Darius took a moment to brush his head with his hand as if it could undo Dante’s gesture.[/color]
