Battle time! I am enjoying the vibes of this chapter, there's this feeling that they both know they're playing it up for the glory of victory, but they are still friends and intermittently having fun! The moments where they "break kayfabe," like when Leon congratulates Roxie, are always amusing to watch.

Lmfao I cracked up at Leon hearing Roxie's rose metaphor and checking himself for a scent. Chokoladansen also made me laugh.

Bullet patterns modelled on constellations sounds like such a cool visual! This has been such a fun chapter to read and I'm looking forward to seeing how it all concludes.

Roxie you forgot to pinch Leon' cheeks!

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoy them. This chapter has some of my favorite comedic exchanges that I've written so far. Leon and Roxie's friendly rivalry was so much fun to write out. They're both dorks and too sweet to each other for any real hard feelings, especially Leon.

She forgot to pinch his cheeks...
