Welcome to Gaia! ::

Funny. Ubawa wasn't sure what had brought him to the dueling grounds. He wasn't there with a challenger- he didn't have anyone he could fight with. Even if he did, there wasn't any passion in it for him. Recently, it seemed like there was only one lion he wanted to match paws with, and he hadn't seen much of her recently. Probably his own fault. Whenever he spotted her, he seemed to get very awkward. He wondered why that was.

Sighing, he turned his head over his shoulder, hearing some footsteps heading his way. He brightened, seeing Adenah. "Well look who it is," he hummed, "here for a fight?" Now why would he ask that?

He supposed he was better at fighting than expressing feelings. Or casual conversation.

Ubawa was excited! Getting to fight her again- it had been the thing he'd been hoping for all the while, and now it was happening. Somehow, though, he was more excited that it was her, specifically, than that it was a fight. Maybe he was really just pleased to see the lady again.

With a growl, an almost playful one, he readied himself, shaking his backside as he set himself to launch forward. "I won't be holding back!" He hummed, before springing at her and taking the first swipe of his large paw.

He tried to aim at her chest, so he didn't hit her face. So much for not holding back.

The hit to the shoulder was much harder than he had expected it to be, but that was probably because he always under-estimated his opponent. If anyone asked, it was because he hadn't been able to fight her so long that he had forgotten that she was actually really good in combat, not that he was too arrogant for his own good.

Never that.

"Ouch!" he huffed, though he was quick to recover, turning towards her and attempting to knock her over by swiping at her paws.

Ubawa had been moving in for another attack when he saw her paw swipe at him. He saw it moving his way, and ducked to try and keep himself from getting smacked. Thankfully, it looked like her aim had been a little bit off, and he managed to get out of the way of any disorienting damage.

However, he found he was in too awkward a position to make an attack of his own, and had to focus on not flopping against the ground. The duck had been too quick, and his front paws had slipped from under him, kicking up a bunch of dirt as he tried to keep himself from falling.

Ubawa had been expecting some kind of attack as he got himself back to his feet, but shaking the sand from his eyes revealed that she had ended up flopping over just like he had. A laugh escaped him and he sprang at her, the male grabbing hold of the end of her tail with his mouth. He wasn't digging in his his teeth, more keeping it there so he could give it a bit of a tug. to get her back to her feet? Maybe.

Or maybe he was just having a bit of fun. It was probably the most ridiculous fight he'd ever been in, but he was enjoying himself immensely.

She was on her back! That meant she was open for an attack. Though, at that time, he really didn't feel like doing anything really serious. Maybe it hadn't been fated to be a real duel from the start. He had been too excited just to see her again to be super serious.

And now... well, now there was no hope of being the rough and tumble warrior he liked everyone to think he was.

He flopped on top of her, pinning her against the ground with his large frame. "I think I've won this one, too," he chuckled as he looked down at her.

Ubawa flopped beside her on the floor, amused. It was weird, he probably would have been just as pleased even if he hadn't won. Not that it could REALLY be considered a proper win, anyway. More than a battle, it had just been... fun.

Such a rare thing for him to admit having from time to time.

"Whenever you want, where ever you want," he told her with a chuckle. He would be more than happy to keep going until she won one, or until they were both just too pooped to care anymore.

As long as he got to spend the time with her, he seemed happy.
