[If you've ever seen an illegal cam recording from the back row of a theater, you are familiar with the style of this broadcast.

Observe, (as best you can), the players upon the stage. The stage being the cave in which many of them have taken shelter from the storm outside, specifically a large, flat rock, at which two fine male specimens you may recognize as Achilles, son of Peleus, and a certain McCree, locked in the midst of a fierce... arm wrestling battle.

Bare arm muscles flexing, beads of sweat dripping, jaws gritting, knuckles white and shaking, eyes narrowed in concentration and competition, testosterone veritably sparking in the air... as two very fit grown men have it out in a no holds barred thirst-fanning battle of the bulges. Arm muscle bulges.

You might catch glimpse of the lovely referee, (blond, very appropriately serious about judging this contest, thanks, Riza), and hear snatches of people rooting for a particular candidate, (the broadcaster herself seems to favor Achilles, if "steel yourself for victory, Achilles!" is any indication), but mostly this is about enjoying a good man on man test of strength.

Until, that is, a voice can be heard.]

- Are you recording that?

[The video sadly? and promptly goes black as the magitek jewelry is clutched to a bosom in scandalous retort.]

Is it not a sight worth sharing? For posterity, you see-

[And apparently she thought it best to post... for posterty. What? Any lady or inclined fella unfortunate enough to not see it go down surely wouldn't want to miss the show... ?]

[ you know those moments when you never really hear your words until you hear them reverberating off the walls of a cave you and a couple dozen of other people, some of whom are your closest friends, share?

she's having that moment right now. ]

[winces]

O-Or... Or something... eheh.

[ please excuse her as she tries to hide her face behind a squirming leukos. ]

[whatshimadayou]

Well.

That was remarkably. Passionate.

[winces]

[ she makes a low, groaning noise behind the squidge, who blinks up at hanzo with mild concern. ]

Nnnngh no don't talk about it, I'm so embarrassed...!

[whatshimadayou]

His head on a stick.

[winces]

Nooo, I said not to talk about it!!

[ while her face doesn't move away from behind that squidge, a hand does come out to shove at his shoulder a little. stop it, you! ]

[whatshimadayou]

[The shove only earns a little grunt from him before he's gently pinching her arm, like he might be teasing her.]

I did not take you for being so competitive.

[winces]

[ she shrinks back when he pinches her, but at least he's managed to get her eyes peeking out from over leukos' head now. ]

I-I don't even know what came over me...

[whatshimadayou]

Well, obviously, you have a hidden competitive streak in you.

[winces]

Oh no, that's terrible!!

[whatshimadayou]

[Hanzo snorts, definitely amused now.]

And why is that so terrible?

[winces]

B-Because it's... [ she glances around, half-expecting maribelle to pop up out of nowhere and whack her with her parasol. ] It isn't very ladylike, is it?

[whatshimadayou]

And?

It is not as if we are functioning in a very traditional arrangement. Unless that tradition of being ladylike is somehow important to you.

[winces]

[ it... never used to be, really. but maribelle has a way of making her influence known... even thousands and thousands of miles away. ]

I mean — isn't it for everybody?

[grunehexe]

[What in the seven hells, Olivia???

... You too, Hanzo!]

[winces]

[ IN A WAY, THIS IS YOUR FAULT??? ]

[whatshimadayou]

[yes, exactly.]

[grunehexe]

[Wow, you two...]
