You wanna fight in the Arena!

"I wanna fight!" You say excitedly, bouncing up and down and pumping your arms in the air.

"Alright." Nora smiles gently. There's a pause. You do not stop bouncing.

"Can you help let me fight please!" You try to prompt her.

"Me?"

"Yes!"

"You want to fight me?"

"No!"

"Debbie, I'm afraid you've not made yourself very clear."

Your bouncing stops. You look up at Nora with an accidental half-pout. "I want to fight in the Arena, but first years aren't allowed to." You explain. "People here really like you -- can you make them let me join in?"

Nora laughs out a pleasant melody, then smiles down at you and rubs her hand at her chin, half-squinting in feigned analysis. "Well, I wouldn't dare break the rule itself -- that would lead to all sorts of troubles for both of us. But I suppose if you're good, I could see about setting up a once-off exception, some time in the future." Nora's eyes widen slightly in joy, seeing your face light up in excitement as you rapidly nod. "Would you like that?"

"Yes please!" You reply quickly.

"Well, I don't know....." Nora teasingly purses her lips and taps a finger against them in contemplation.{if NoraCuddle1 == True} Then, she sighs with fake resignation and shrugs. "Well, I suppose since you did such a wonderful job of cuddling me, you've been a good enough girl for me to give it a try for you. But don't push your luck now, young lady!"

"I won't!" You quickly reassure her.

Nora gives you a smile and a nod, then turns her attention back to the rest of the tent's insides, humming lightly to herself behind her smiling lips. It sounds like she's gonna help you out with it, though! So, you guess you should just leave it in her capable hands for now then. Hopefully it doesn't take too long, you're really itching to get involved around here!{else} "Maybe if I'd had a few more cuddles from you I'd be quicker to agree, but as things are right now I'm just not sure Debbie. Why, I don't even know if you really want to fight in the Arena."

"I do!" You quickly reassure her.

With a sly smile, Nora flips her hair behind her other shoulder and looks back down at you. "Well, it looks like you've **** but to prove it and cuddle me, then. Does now work? Or would you rather do it later?"{endif}
