((OOC: Tournament Arena Lobby during Round 1.))
Ebran normally wouldn't have bothered to come to a tournament such as this. He was an archaeologist, after all, and he didn't do things such as fighting, or enjoyed watching people that fought. That Siarnaq guy back then... Ugh.
However, when people had asked him whether he had been participating since they'd seen someone that looked like him, Ebran had flat-out told them no. And then gone straight to the tournament grounds on the day that spectators were welcome to watch.
And he felt like he'd been slapped in the face as the announcer announced each of the battles that he was watching on the screen. Three of them, he was going to be keeping an eye on.
Voile Phare. Aven Phare. Imit Phare.
All of them were alive, and participating in this. He felt a tinge of... emotion? Had they thought he'd been dead. He wasn't quite sure what to think at the moment. He remained seated where he was, blankly staring at the Aven's battle.

Standing right in front of Aven Vs. Thor's view screen was a certain white haired woman, watching the match with rapt attention. "Come on, Aven! I know you can do this!" She rooted, pumping her fists in front of her. "Do me proud, boy!~"
How she wanted to be the one on that screen, fighting it out to prove who was the best. However, do to her own foolishness, she had badly wounded her leg and side, and was unfit to participate. She she had convincedforced Aven to join.
"Show him a what-for, Aven!"

...And apparently while he was trying to watch his brothers, there was an extremely loud-mouthed woman shouting at the screens. Or at least the screen that Aven was on. She was apparently on his side, too. Fancy that.
Ebran tilted his head, looking at the view screen for his brother. He couldn't tell whether his brother was winning at the moment, but it didn't look like that woman cared.
"Favorite of yours?"

Juli glanced over to Ebran for a moment, and stared. He looked remarkably like Aven and Voile. "'Favorite' is an understatement." She smiled proudly. "That's Aven Phare, my absolute closest friend and current roommate." Yes, Juli is very proud of Aven right now and is bragging it up.

Well, it made sense that she was staring at him, considering that he was Aven's identical twin, and she seemed to know him well. Heh, that look, it was quite refreshing to see it again. When he'd been younger, it drove him batty because it meant people were mistaking him for Aven, but now it was a good thing.
It meant that Aven was still alive.
"I don't know who to root for. Aven and my other brothers are in this thing." He gave a sheepish grin to Julianne.

It was just then that Sharpei, fresh from her own fight, staggered in, dusting off her clothes. Two people were already here--only one of which she recognized. Of course! Julianne.
She stared at the screen they were near. Someone she didn't recognize...and...WAS THAT THOR?!
"...I am going to kill Thor." She muttered. She then tried to give a cheerful greeting. "Hey!"
She then leaned against the wall. "I dunno who to root for either. I mean, that other guy looks like he's got an upper hand...but...my brother's in that fight too."

"Brother?" Wait...Aven never mentioned having any other siblings! "You're Aven's brother?" She was surprised, but she could believe it. Ebran looked just like Aven!
When Sharpei walked in, Juli turned and looked at her, Aven's fight still going on the screen. "Oh, hey Sharpei. Your match over already?"
Juli looked back up at the screen in time to see Aven maneuver around a sonic blast. "COME ON BOY! DON'T HOLD BACK!~"
After her loud cheering, she glanced at Sharpei. "Well, you could flip a coin, or just observe." She smiled. "I like Thor and all, sweet guy, but Aven is fighting in my stead, so of course I want him to win.~"

Ebran grinned sheepishly again as Julianne stared at him in surprise upon learning she was Aven's brother.
"Yeah, Ebran Phare, his twin brother. I'm not surprised you don't know about me. None of those three mentioned me, did they?" Whether she knew Voile and Imit was something that he wasn't sure of, but he knew that he had thought all three were dead until people had begun asking him whether he was participating.
He turned around as Sharpei walked in, taking a couple of wary steps away from Juli as she began to get all excited.
"Oh, don't worry. I plan on killing those three later." Ebran said cheerfully upon Sharpei's mention of killing Thor. "Aven's a pacifist. I'm surprised you even convinced him to do this, unless he's changed in the last several years."
"And I know what you mean. I have three brothers in this tournament, and it's... if they end up facing each other, I'll have no idea who to root for." He stole a glance at Imit's battle, and winced as the other took a particularly nasty blow. Ouch, that had to have hurt.

"My match was...pretty fast. I swear, you'd think that someone would recognize Capoeira since it's such an ancient martial art...and recognize Ballroom Dancing used in battle..." Sharpei shrugged. "It's kind of sad, really."
She stole a glance at the screen. Did her brother just shoot a lightning bolt that the guy dodged pretty well? Holy crap! Looked like Thor was having a little fun, actually. Her earpieces perked up high.
"I'll loan you my ribbons from when I used to dance as a little kid if you feel like chokin' 'em." Sharpei chuckled to Ebran. "Really? Thor's a pacifist too...oh, I swear if he just saw me and did that to treat me like I'm some fragile little kid again..." Now Sharpei's face was a bright red from frustration.

Julianne laughed, then paused. "Wait, THREE?" She looked surprised. "As far as I knew, Aven and Voile were the only ones. Neither ever mentioned you or the other. So there are four of you?" Better watch out Aven, if Ebran didn't get to you first, Juli was.
"Um, no, Aven's still pretty non-confrontational, unlike me." Juli explained, trying to get over the shock of knowing there was at least four Phares. "I guess you could say I was very convincing." She laughed sheepishly.
Juli let Sharpei and Thor talk about who to root for as she turned to look at the screen. Come on Aven, do Juli proud!

Ebran chuckled a bit as Sharpei described her match. Well, it seemed like she was either a tough cookie, or the person she had been fighting was rather pathetic. Maybe a combination of both; he didn't know her well enough to decide on that. When Juli asked him that question on the brothers, Ebran scratched his head.
"Yeah, four of us. As for why they didn't mention us... very long story that I really don't feel like going into right now."
Bitter memories were bitter. He chuckled a bit as she mentioned that Aven wasn't very confrontational and that she had probably convinced him to do it. Oh, he could definitely believe that, and the expression on his face showed.
"Haha, might take you up on that!" Oh, how he wanted to yell at them for making him think they were dead. Sharpei seemed to be frustrated about Thor treating her like a little kid, so Ebran just shrugged.
"If he's anything like those two older brothers of mine, he just doesn't want you hurt, even at the cost of his own health."

Sharpei listened to the conversation between Ebran and Julianne. Oooh, so it seemed Ebran was not only Aven's brother, but the brother of two other fighters in this tournament? She wouldn't press either on that issue about why he wouldn't bring up his siblings and his siblings didn't mention him.
She chuckled lightly. "Oh, please do. I'd be amused to see if someone could use those ribbons for something other than dancing or smacking their brother." One must pity Thor, as Sharpei may or may not have beaten him with those ribbons before. Mostly "may". "And that's what makes me want to strangle him the most, really. He's the one that needs to be protected, not me!"

Good Asimov, FOUR? "No sisters I need to worry about, right?" How many siblings did Aven have? She then decided that for every sibling that Aven did not mention to her, she'd give him one solid kick in the butt.
"Alright then. I'll just pry it out of Aven later once you're done mauling him." She laughed.
She glanced over to Sharpei and laughed lightly. "I always found that people underestimating me because I'm a girl to be helpful." She suggested. "Makes them less likely to suspect that you're about to jam a sharp object in their rib cage."
If Jw was around while she said this, he'd probably be advising her to cool it a little; he wasn't there, however, so Juli didn't really have any sort of a filter going by that point.

"Nope, no sisters." Julianne had no idea how much it stung him to say that. His poor little sister had never been born and had died with their mom.
Ebran had to chuckle a bit, feeling a bit bad for Sharpei's brother. He had to have done some silly stuff if she had smacked him with them.
"Well, he seems to be able to hold his own against Aven."
He sheepishly took a bit of a step back at what Julianne was saying. He'd met female Hunters before, and some of them had really nasty bites.
