Description The roars and cheers of the crowd made the cheetah’s heart race with adrenaline and excitement all at once. He had taken down his opponent with a large grin, fresh blood dripping from his shoulder where they had slices him with their claws. “Do me a favor and stay down,” He threatened to the feline laying down, it’s own wounds bleeding. Ignitus roared triumphantly, receiving more loud cheering from the crowd. He gave a bow before taking his leave from the arena, allowing the feline he sparred with to be carried out to a healer.

The cheetah exited, limping ever so slightly from his hurt shoulder, plopping himself promptly by his own healer. A lovely looking lass who seemed to be a cougar mix. “Hello gorgeous, just the shoulder today,” He commented, that grin gracing his face once more.

Melinoe came down to the colosseum of Lyon while Gigi was at one of her human gatherings. She has no reason to frolic around in the forest so she came to put her talents to use. As she walked down to the bottom level, she noticed all the broken down and battered souls locked up. If only she could help them all. But she was told that they had some special for her by the pits. As she arrived at the gate, she sat down and wiggled her medicine bag off.

Time passed and the crowds roared with excitement… who could be reaping their he glory out there? After a bit she noticed the doors being drawn open, a fiery cheetah prancing in with pride. She quickly noticed his shoulder gashed open as he spoke to her.

“Seems you did well in there”

She picked up her bag and came closer to inspect his wounds.

Ignitus looked her over as she inspected his wounds, taking in her almost sweet scent as she drew close. She was interesting, not at all effected by the sight of blood as she commented about the battle.

“Why yes, the leader of the Mercenaries must show skill, otherwise what use is he to a lovely lass like you?” Ignitus chimed with a toothy smile, looking at her for any response to his complimenting remarks. He positioned himself to allow her to get a better look at his shoulder and work on it.

The snow cougar chuckled at the champions remarks. This’ll be fun… She turned to her bag and flipped it open, looking for a cleanser and an ointment. As she fiddle her things around, he responded quite confidently, “If you are not a ways to heal, then you do not have much use for me”. Quickly after saying that, she turned to look at him with a teasing look. Never before had she been so bold with someone she’d treated. But it felt fun to poke at someone so strong. For some reason, she wanted to see what boundaries he would have.

She went ahead and started working on his shoulder, pouring the cleansing ointment onto his wounds. It would sting slightly, but she knew the other cat would be able to handle it.

Ignitus's smile just got bigger. Oh she has spunk, he thought, thoroughly enjoying the turn of the budding conversation. He tensed slightly at the sting of her ointment, but he quickly returned to the topic at hand with great interest. "I'm sure I could find another use of you...." He said in a seductive flirty tone, knowing damn well he was crossing a line he was familiar with, as he never cared to keep behind it, "...That is, if you'd let me." She was rather lovely, a soft yet simple look about her, but if she continued like that, she'd certainly be interesting to keep around.

“Do you use that line with all the young, plush females?”, Melinoe chirped unbothered as she continued to add soothing herbs over his injuries. She tried to remain calm and collected on the outside, but in her mind, she couldn’t help but imagine what the male was referring to. This was the first time anyone has made an advance at her. But she liked it. She liked to push and shove of the conversation, the tension, the heat. She turned again to her medicine bag, remembering that she needed a different bandaging that was specifically for the joints of the body. As she shuffled through the bag, she moved her tail playfully brushed it again the cheetah’s chest.

"Only with playful delights such as yourself," The cheetah cooed in response, leaning against his other shoulder as he relaxed while she worked on him. He wasn't used to having a healer look as scrumptious as she did, since well, most healers he's ever dealt with were either rather old, or were males. She was among the rare few young beauties the healing trade seemed to offer in the city so far. Perhaps more like her would come over time, but he'd have his fun with her first.

It seemed she was rather enjoying his attention regardless, noticing her tail was betraying her words, leading him to feel as if his advances were working rather well, even if she was being too stubborn to show him. His eyes wandered elsewhere, though quickly changed back to look at her face as she turned.

The snow cougar shook her head, chuckling to herself. Wowww… She scooped up the bandaging and started to unravel the thin fabric. As she started to dress the wounds, she mewed again, as sultry as she could, “I’m glad you find me delightful. But I am no play thing, hot shot”. Her mind was on fire, deliberating whether she was to keep going with this back and forth… or whether she should dismiss herself before she gave in.

Melinoe lifted his leg up to finishing wrapping and tucking his wound. “There… should be all better”, she padded down and tucked any loose fabric so nothing would unravel on its own.

"Oh no darling, you certainly are not play thing. But your tongue certainly is playful with your comment," He chuckled. She was humorous in her replies, and he found her quite the catch should any man managed to break through her rather sassy replies. As she finished wrapping up his shoulder, he tested it by moving his arm around, finding it to be just right, nodding in satisfaction as her handiwork.

"You're rather great with your paws miss healer. Should you change your mind on my offer, I'm known to all as Ignitus," The cheetah added, providing a rather normal smile to her, dipping his head politely, before that grin returned, knowing damn well what his offer meant.

She laughed softly, trying to break up the tension in the air. She knew this was a dangerous game they were playing, but she loved every second. She slid her bag over her head and adjusted it as needed. It was time for her to find her next patient, but before parting with the male, she came closer to him and mewed, “Well Ignitis, if you even need to be tended to again, I am known as Melinoe” The cat turned away, looking to her exit. But she felt that she needed to end their fun little conversation with a bang…

“I will only ever accept your offer once you’ve outwitted me”

"Melinoe... I'll keep that in mind," Ignitus purred, yellow eyes watching as she walked away. Seems I have some work cut out for me if I were to try and woo this one, he thought to himself, watching her shape disappear into the hallways of the Lyon Colosseum as she continued her work.
