With another step, he tangoed between life and death while the two bulls tried charging at him once more. His feet clacked, his body spun with the world, and all the horns struck were the spirits of the air. Once, twice, maybe a dozen. The beasts were quite dull compared to his movements, even he found it boring. But he smiled. His body glistened and shone while the scarlet cape flowed like water, like a dance, and with a graceful step he dived right under the charging bulls, sliding on the ground fantastically only to  surge back behind them. Only then did the earth shake.

The third centrepiece of this lousy play finally entered this scene. This... fluffy? Despite having such a cute name, it was quite unsightly. But no matter. Ten, twenty, even a hundred of these bulls were no match to him. He would paint this stage with the most wonderful of colours. Thus, he bowed and tossed a rose at the middle of the arena, right between him and the giant beast.

Anticipated crowd

As the crowd watched the bulls, the jeering became more intense.  Although something interesting was happening.  The men in the crowd were booing even harder than before, despite the man's grace.  Meanwhile, the woman cheered even louder, attempting to defend the man's honor.

"Cocky bastard!  Your not special!" One man said.

"Oh he is so graceful!" A woman added to the fuel of the crowd.

Sera. the only woman of the leaders folded her arms.  She was clearly the most engaged in the match.  "Do you think he has calculated his odds or is merely bluffing before the crowd."

Meanwhile, Ferrison Monroe, the man who responded her comment before, indulged her open curiosity once again.  "When a man faces down a beast, regardless of his skill it is not about experince.  Rather, it is a dialogue between man and beast. It is not about mere calculation, but a heart to heart."

"Agreed.  This is not a mere faceoff, just simple communication between man and beast.  The calculations of battle come down to not the mind, but experience itself.  There is no doubt in the world who will be victorious," Sethrol the Calm added.

"AH A ROSE.  SO GENTLEMANLY.  BUT IS THIS A GESTURE OF CONFIDENCE OR A PREMATURE DECORATION OF HIS OWN GRAVE?"

"Wrong."

He took the first step, a simple step forward, and drew his sword for the first time. Slowly, surely, he unsheathed it with a small smile. But if his words were quiet and calm, the tension in the arena became a veritable storm.

"This tomb well suits a beast like you. Let the sound of scattered petals be your requiem, and this flower be a parting gift from me to you. I will make this a song worthy of a beautiful heart." His eyes glanced to the crowd, and almost absentmindedly he blew a kiss to the audience. He paid little mind to it, but a fluffy haired spectator managed to catch it first, much to the dismay of thousands of young maiden hearts.

"Olé!"

yinsukin:
Fluffy

The golden bull snorted, pushing shrapnel into the air as it charged forward.  As the massive beast galloped across the arena, the entire coliseum shook with the vigor of an earthquake.  It put its head down, showing the matador its horns as it threatened to skewer him alive.

Even with such a maddening figure approaching the smaller man, the great battle for the rose was far greater.  The girls all began fighting over the rose, the shape of the crowd folding in as bodies fought for supremacy. Even the announcer was distracted by the rose, unable to speak into the mike without producing strange fangirl like sqeels.

"Ohoho.  The boy is going for the direct approach," Bahadur Klearjaac said.

Nanako

Nanako's confusion only grew as the crowd's jeering intensified, even as the man made a graceful showing of practically dancing between the bulls. It certainly lent credence to the idea that this was some weird dance, but the crowd seemed set on a fight. Just then, the announcer spoke up again, and a new contender entered the arena. Instead of another normal bull, however, this time it was a large mechanical bull. That was also golden.

The squirrel girl looked at the newcomer incredulously, canting her head to the side as she watched the beast storm out, her tail twitching indignantly. A tiny part of her felt a little offended by the name, as that bull wasn't at all fluffy. In fact, it was an affront to all things fluffy!

Nanako watched out of the corner of her eye as the rose flew into the crowd, provoking a small fight among the girls in that area that quickly spiraled out of control. She didn't pay it too much mind, though, focused as she was on the events playing out before her as the blonde man drew a sword at last and faced down the charging golden bull.

Man, why didn't the flyer mention anything about this?
