She blocks and replies with her own.

It speeds and clatters as they now don't want to get hit and lose the contest... pride at play, and playful pride

LUpe and Dagmar sit down on a bench to catch up

She gets the first shot in on him!

And Sylvi gets a shot back, but as they trade blows, she hits the three touches first and he ends up on his ass

He looks up "Okay, I'm gonna be sore, but worth it"

She grins and offers him a hand up. "You're pretty good!"

"And yo uare not as rusty as I thought you'd be. Damn girl, not far you look that good AND are that good with a spear, yet here you are"

He takes the hand up

She's absolutely enjoying the flattery. "You don't think female athletes usually look good?" ((Basil should sense this is a trap.))

"I think a woman who takes care of herself for herself ALWAYS looks good.." Wise for his age, and he says "Now, somebody has to buy somebody dinner and I'm good either way it is"

"Nice save. And how about...I buy for you, and you buy for me."

"I like this plan" he agrees. And the two are off.

While the grumps of Rivervale find their own cozy spot to sip drinks by the fire
