[Amidst all the people pouring in to aid in Union's reconstruction, one more newcomer is pretty easy to overlook. So, Suika's entry into Union goes pretty smoothly. The next day is where things get fun.

First step, when she arrives as the sun is setting, is to find anyone who's having a good time and join in. This eventually leads to step two, getting into Teeter's, which takes some doing given her appearance but is far from impossible. Being in Teeter's quickly leads to step three, getting into her first meeting with the Swords for reasons pertaining to bar brawling. The rest is a blur.

Whatever happened from there, it ends the next morning (ish) with Suika at the front doors of Swords of the Savior headquarters, or at least the first Swords-related building she can find.]

It's me, the person from the bar! I'm here to talk to your strongest fighter, so who's that?

[[Accepting threads at any part of this adventure - entering the city, extreme Teeter's revelry, getting harassed by the Swords, harassing the Swords the following day.]]

Morgiana isn't the type who spends her time at bars, but that hardly matters when the bar fight gets big enough to spill out the bar's front doors and into the street, getting innocent bystanders caught in the madness. One minute, she had been walking home, minding her own business, the next someone had upended a mug of beer over her head. One thing led to another from there, and before she really knew what was going on she had someone held over her head, ready to throw them at a table.

How did this happen again?

[partyfog]

During her moment of hesitation, Suika drops someone else on the table she was about to throw someone at, resting both elbows on his back as she regards Morgiana.

"Hey, you're pretty good at this! Do you get in a lot of bar fights? Most of these guys are amateurs."

[flying_chains]

She tossed the poor man to the side (Gently! Or at least as gently as you can bodily throw someone.).

"N-no! I don't usually go to bars."

[partyfog]

"You should do it more often! You've got the throwing arm for it."

[flying_chains]

"I don't like fighting though..."

Even as she said it she knew it was a lie. She DID like fighting, an awful lot. The fact that she didn't really believe what she was saying was printed across her face.

[indy_wannabe]

Oh, you can't miss him. Big guy, wears lots of armor, carries a huge sword. Goes by Garen Crownguard.

[partyfog]

Really? I was betting it'd be the girl with red hair who threw a guy at me last night.

Is he here? I wanna see him.

[mightydemacian]

[ Why this? There's a big guy in the building, yes. He's not wearing lots of armour or carrying a huge sword right now because he's not y'know, trying to beat anyone's face in. ]

[partyfog]

Heyyy! Are you Garen? This guy said you were really strong!

[indy_wannabe]

[What's this? Ezreal's gone missing? What a shame!]

[warriormouse]

[Martin is walking out of the HQ (he's retired, but he doesn't mind helping in times like this) when the loud girl walks up and yells. He blinks]

That's a loaded question.

[partyfog]

You must have at least some idea, right? You don't just get a bunch of warriors into one place and not have them figure out who the strong ones are.

I mean, if there's a few people who are pretty close, I don't mind talking to all of them.

[warriormouse]

[Martin shakes his head]

No, that's not it. All of the Swords have different skills and while there's usually one who's the best, say, martial artist they might lose to one of the sword users. There isn't one "strongest" member.

[partyfog]

All right, best martial artist. That makes it easier, right?

[warriormouse]

[He laughs a bit]

If I were still with the Swords, maybe. I know who it was two years ago, but you'd have to ask the Swords themselves. There is a dojo, though, if you're not set on...talking to or fighting the Swords.

[Kurapika was another outsider walking by Teeters - and unlike Suika, he had no intentions of getting into a fight - until a man went flying out the window, and lands through his pumpkaboo friend, who phrased through in shock]

Augh! What on earth?

Boo?

[He wasn't even thinking when he ran inside to foolishly try to break up the fight, he's not even sure why he thought that was possible, especially given he doesn't have an excuse for poor judgment, unlike everyone else in the bar]

[partyfog]

Look out!

[The moment Kurapika enteresthe bar, there's a table careening directly towards him.]

[arachnocide]

Ah!

[He immediately drops into a slide, feeling the table slam against the doorway than the floor. Soon as he's up, he notices a man about to slam a table onto what he thinks is a little girl, and snapped a chain out, grabbing the table and pulling the man back and off-balance]

No you don't!

[partyfog]

[At which point, said little girl winds up and throws a punch, through the table, sending the would-be assailant flying.]

Nice one!

[arachnocide]

[He lets the chair sail on over his head, sending it crashing onto another man fighting, jerking his chain back so it wraps back around his wrist]

Thanks...

[Appearances are certainly deceiving, he had to realized as he scans the room. Why did he think he could break this fight up?]

Let's get out of here.

[ofpromisedvictory]

[Saber's not a Sword yet - well, not that kind of sword - but she is heading to their headquarters with some paperwork regarding that when she spots the strange girl in front of the building.]

[Pardon her if she just stares for a moment to see what will happen. This isn't a kind of challenge she sees every day.]

[partyfog]

[Oh hey she's being stared at.]

Is it you?

[ofpromisedvictory]

Me? Oh, the strongest.

[She shrugs.]

I'm a fairly strong fighter, but I'm not one of the Swords of the Savior, if that's who you're looking for. May I ask what you need them for?

[partyfog]

Finding out which one is stronger - the Devas, or the Swords. So, I wanna fight the strongest one.

[ofpromisedvictory]

[She raises an eyebrow.]

That's it? The Swords are generally busy with law enforcement work. I'm not sure how many would take time out of that for this.
