@Gingerboi123Ryouko accepted Damien's hand up, silently, as he nodded his head. He had wanted to find Veronica immediately... But then he remembered...their fight was starting! Finally!
"Good luck, Damien." Ryouko said, as he exhaled softly and stepped to the side of the arena. He was anxious to get this over and done with, took off his headphones and any other electronics or metal items on his body. Then He ran a hand through his hair and took off his hat, setting it over his things as he let his hair fall over his eyes, seperating the blood sphere into both hands. Ryouko walked to his end of the arena, his demeanor changing entirely. If it was possible, one could almost feel the icy demeanor that wrapped around Ryouko like a blanket. He hid the halves in his palms, his blue hair over his eyes as he crouched, palms flat, with the fingers bent and curled but leaving his palms exposed.
And he was smiling, waiting for the opponent's move. He knew Damien would be someone very hard to fight against. But this side of him didn't care about not liking fighting...it was necessary, this fight, to the people over him.
'Time to put on a show. Hope he doesn't take anything I do personally.'
