[Even some alien race born without ears would have heard the screech of that chair. Blade's eyebrows furrow, but he doesn't give her more than a second glance until she pulls right up to him and sits down. Blade, who is at least six feet tall, does not feel loomed over at all. She might be able to tell he's reading some in universe version of Gundam though. It's Welt's because of course it is.
He regards her from behind the book, and lowers it after a moment. What was her name? Her body language is defensive, and she definitely seems like she doesn't want him to be here. That makes two of them... She is one of his friends, but he doesn't remember much beyond that.]
I wasn't planning on it.
[She reminds him of Silver Wolf somehow. Maybe it's her age, or her stature, but he finds it difficult to be more than superficially annoyed. Maybe that's just Kafka's Spirit Whisper suppressing the monster for now.]
Do you fear I will harm your friend? You should be more concerned about yourself, girl. If the mara strikes, I cannot guarantee your safety.
[March does take a moment to see what he's reading, expecting it to be some kind of EVIL MURDER BOOK or something, and is surprised that it's just a graphic novel. Huh. Clearly he left his EVIL MURDER BOOK at home and is just browsing what's here.
That's a surprisingly normal think for him to do.
She will not be fooled, however. Stellaron Hunters are not to be trusted. Just because he's reading not!Gundam doesn't make him any less dangerous or anything.]
I'm not scared of you.
[Because of course she hears his warning as a threat.]
[While Dan Heng was reading books, he was mastering the sword!!!!!
March declaring she's not scared of him would be extremely funny if he wasn't deadly serious about the mara part. He stares at her for a minute with bright, unnatural eyes... and then he sighs.]
Did the General not teach you about the mara-struck?
[For all his grumbling, this is where he shows his patience.]
Those cursed with immortality eventually suffer the effects of the mara. It is something inside me that suffers nothing to stand in my way. When the mara grows agitated, I lose control of myself entirely. I no longer recognize friend from foe.
You don't want to be sitting beside me when that happens.

I happen to be a pretty great fighter, you know.
