Modifications to Rolls: Will roll 2d6 per post to make things faster in SRP format. 1-2 miss, 3-6 hit.
Who goes first? Sunobari is currently 1st dice, Gadane is currently 2nd!
Gadane was eager to participate in the Sky Ceremony again this year. He didn't have the same drive to make an impression when he wanted to get Dohi's attention.. but he still wanted to impress her. It was almost as motivating to know that this year he could bring the title home to her, her family and her clan. What he wasn't expecting was to be up against someone from his birth clan right away, and it was an older lion at that.
"Uh," he stammered, standing opposite Sunobari.
"Gadane Dhatri," Sunobari answered with a smirk, giving his opponent a look up and down, "You seem well, married life must suit you."
Sunobari wasn't that much older than Gadane, especially compared to some of the extremely young competitors in this tournament.. but he remembered when this lion was born. It had been in Sunobari's first year in the Earth Clan and seeing youngsters roaming around had been part of what made it feel like home. So he remembered.
"Let's see if you can do better this year," he said.
Gadane sighed and braced himself to start.

Sunobari was expecting to be hit again, especially after a taunt like that, but what he wasn't expecting was to be pounced by a flailing dead weight that couldn't be predicted or countered easily. He hit the dirt with a confused yelp and then he just laid there, accepting his defeat. Gadane was the first to move, picking himself up off his opponent and stepping back. He was pretty sure he had just won but he wasn't sure his opponent would agree..
"I'm not sure that counts as a plan," Sunobari said, picking himself up off the ground and shaking the dirt out of his mane, "But you definitely got me."
Gadane relaxed and smiled sheepishly.
"You'll have to do better than that in the next round," Sunobari went on, smiling and shaking his head, "Don't count on luck, that was a decent survival technique but it's not much for an actual fight."
How much did Sunobari know about fighting, Gadane wondered as he offered some advice. Looking at the few sparse tattoos on the elder lion, he remembered that despite Sunobari having always been here as far as he could remember, he actually came from outside the mountains. That automatically made him more of an expert in fighting than any typical Ela'wadiyi, so Gadane smiled.
"Thank you," he said, "I'll keep that in mind."
He definitely needed to be better prepared if he was going to win again!
Sunobari shook his head but he kept on smiling. The Earth Clan was out, officially speaking, but he knew the clan would be very happy to see a Dhatri still in the running. It was a strange coincidence that put them against each other first and there was no outcome that would have upset the majority of the clan.. Sunobari felt like he had lucked out this time, being able to lose and not upset anybody. Maybe he'd press his luck and try again next year.
Fin!
