Don't apologize, Amelia. Iphelina calls from one side. Then in a louder, teaching moment voice, she calls to everyone. When you fight someone in battle, you can't expect them to fight by your rules. And then to Jacquard specifially. She did not cheat, she used what was available to her. Now get up.
Jacquard stands, not at all amused with being humiliated. He begins to circle Amelia, this time taking the fight more seriously.
Amelia just gives a little shrug and falls back into a fighting stance. She doesn't feel to bad, he really should have taken her seriously from the very beginning.
This time she doesn't wait for him to attack though. She quickly moves forward striking at the pixie's mid body on the side he is holding his sword.

Jacquard tries to parry the attack to one side and move in closer, his weaponless hand closing into a fist as the shoulder leads the way. If he gets close enough, he'll try to backhand her as hard as he can, with a growl of anger and frustration.

In that case, Jamie will likely feel a poke just under her ribs. No pain, just enough to notice. On guard. he whispers, a smile still on his face. Then he pulls away quickly.
Amelia wishes she had a cute happy partner instead of some dude about to backhand her in the face. As she sees the swing coming she lets her legs slide out from underneath her so she does the splits and ducks underneath the blow. Her sword quickly jabbing towards his gut.
"Eep - hey!" Jamie squawks in surprise and outrage, but the latter quickly degenerates into giggles as she jumps back, doing a backflip and then stepping forwards in a rather more polished combat style.

Jacquard obviously had put a lot of force into his attack, so when Amelia ducked, he began to spin past, and lose his balance. Which is when she tags him again.
Graaaah! He leaps back.... no wait, flies back. He then attacks with a vengeance, swinging the sword with reckless abandon, trying to power his way through her defenses.
Iphelina flies forward to stop him, but she's not right there, so Amelia wil have to fend for herself for a moment.

Sheill bows to Jamie, then does a backflip of his own, but not quite as gracefully. He lands on his face. Owwww. he says, rubbing his nose. But there's a smile in his eyes as he stands back up.
Amelia manages to pull her legs back underneath her standing up just in time to work to defend herself from his attacks, though she is retreating and off balance. She manages to block most of his furious attacks getting hit once hard on her left shoulder. She sees Iphelina coming in to break up the fight but doesn't want to be rescued. She attempts to lock swords with him in an attempt to twist his practice weapon from his hand.

Amelia is able to lock swords with Jacquard for a brief moment, but he has a strong grip on the sword, and is beginning to fly up to press his advantage above her, an awkward angle for most humans.
Jacquard, no flying! Iphelina orders him. If you can't fight without flying, then you are useless. She is hovering nearby, but not yet interfering.
But Jacquard ignores his captain, he is glaring at Amelia with rage.

Couldn't be better. Sheill says with a smile. He is kissed on the cheek, but her attack is successfully parried. He winks at her. On guard, always.

Sallianne is frowning slightly, as she watches Amelia's fight. She nods at Irene's comment, a slight smile on her lips. Why is Jacquard acting like this? Could it be... because she'd human? she looks to Irene, a little worried. I wouldn't have suggested him, If I'd known.
Amelia grins as he starts to fly up to gain the advantage. It takes all her willpower not to quote one of her favorite movie lines right now. She has a trick she has been meaning to try out for awhile and hopes she can pull this off.
Without looking she summons up two square pieces of light floating behind her above the ground. When she takes a step back she also takes a step up. She twists down low spinning away from him and retreating a few steps.
Without looking she summons up two squares of light floating slightly above the ground for her to step on. So as she is retreating back, she is also going up, to face him on his level.
"It's fine. My masters taught me to keep a sure footing just about anywhere."
She takes her stance again this time floating in the air standing on her squares of light.
"She's going to have so many babies..." Irene mutters to herself. Of completely random races.
"So what? Humans are exotic like elves or something here?"
Irene thought humans were common enough, but she supposes it depends on how closed off the culture is.

"Good philosphy," Jamie agrees, winking back before stepping forwards and into an assault. Left right left up down right!
Thanks. Sheill backs away, using his sword to successfully block each of Jamie's attacks. He makes no attempt to strike back, letting her do all the hard work. Did you see how well having nothing but offense does for Jacquard? he gives a slight nod to the left, where Jacquard and Amelia are fighting. He can't even win by cheating.

Jacquard grins slightly as Amelia moves up her light cubes to fight more on his terms. He backs off, hovering just out of reach of her sword arm, then begins to circle her. You are limited though. He then flies down, to try to get below her, and will go to behind her, if not interrupted.
If he makes it this far, he will then try to jab her from behind.
((You can interrupt this movement at any time you feel she could. ))

Sallianne looks at Irene and smiles. Just how many humans and elves have you seen here the past two days?
"That's true. However a duel with two defenders is no duel at all," Jamie declares. But she does take a hint, stepping back and falling into a defensive stance, grinning in anticipation.
Amelia watches him carefully as he flies below her, stepping and spinning to keep him in front of her. As she steps off her light it disappears and reappears underneath it again when she steps down. She keeps her movements to a minimum for now, hoping she doesn't have to push this to far with such an aggressive opponent.
She swats away his jab and makes a series of quick attacks at his sword arm. Putting as much power into each attack she can.

Sheill nods once, then shifts into a more aggressive attack, swinging once for Jamie's legs, then backhanding the sword toward her back, assuming she'll jump.

Jacquard's sword arm is smacked once, twice, and then a third time, forcing him to drop the weapon. He quickly dives down toward it, catching it just before it hits the ground.
He then lands softly on the ground, turns toward his opponent and bows politely toward her. You win. he says, all mallice and anger gone from his voice. He smiles up at her. Good fight.

Not many find their way here. And those not invited are usually helped to find their way right back out. Usually unconscious and in a hospital days away.
Amelia blinks in surprise as her opponent suddenly shifts personalites. She breathes a small sigh of relife before walking down out of the air summoning up steps as she goes. Once on the ground she gives a small bow in return.
Jamie does indeed jump, then gets thwacked by the sword across her back, yelping in surprise! "Oi!"
Awww. Did I hurt you? Let me see. Sheill will flutter over and try to look at her back, lifting the back of her shirt enough to see where he hit her.
As he does though, he'll try to tap her a few times with his sword. You know, you really need to work on your defense.

Well yeah. Humans breed faster than us, have been shown to have corrupting influences on our culture. We invite only those the Queen deems worthy. And only for a short time. Sallianne smiles to Irene, hoping this is explanation enough.

"You too, very intense."
I like to give it everything I got. he steps forward, reaching for one of her hands, as he sheaths the sword with his other. I'm sorry if I offended you in any way. he says, looking her in the eyes and smiling.
Amelia smiles a bit nervously as he takes her hand. She has a hard time accepting this sudden polietness, he sure seemed to have a lot of anger towards her during the fight. To be fair though, she had come out better in their bout. So she stays polite.
"Don't worry about it, I wouldn't have asked to spar if I didn't want a fight. My trainers always warned me to stay calm in a fight, I will admit it is hard to do sometimes."
Jamie is wise enough not to allow the look, but she probably does get tapped regardless...
"...I've always believed the best defense is a good offence," she says, as she spins and goes to parry the next poke. "I guess I do need more practice, though."
"What do you mean by corrupting influence?" Irene asks, curious as to which part of the culture Sallianne might mention as most important.
You know. Sallianne blushes a little. They're so.... promiscuous. And our history tells of raids by humans, trapping and keeping pixies for evil intent. Like... like making food, as pets, slaves, and you know... promiscuousness. She's no further blushing.

Jacquard leans forward and nearly kisses her hand, but doesn't. It's not normally my style, either. I wanted to see if you were worthy of my time. You are.

Sheill's taps are parried. And he takes a step away when she won't let him look. I think so, too. I wouldn't mind training with you, if you'd like. He puts his sword away, though keeps his hand on the hilt, in case she's not ready to stop.
Jamie smiles brightly, and sheathes her sword, before bowing!
"Could you? Really? I'd be honored!" the redheaded Magical Girl declares, with a broad smile.
And yes, she is looking him over. A little. At times.
Amelia bristles a bit at this. She hates being tested, though she should have been expecting a test, but his apparent anger had thrown her off. Still she can't just let that line lay.
"Next time we shall have to see if you are worthy of mine."
She grins though to show she is in good humor, and honestly hoping for another match.
