Most people would probably be intimidated by the young woman's glare, but Celes shrugged it off with little difficulty. After all, it wasn't as if Chili had experience being a scary lady.

"Perhaps not, but neither is that bloody nose of yours. Honestly, I didn't even think I punched you that hard. I suppose that means this body is stronger than it appears..."

...Wait a damn second.

"Are you... saying I'm weak?!" screamed Chili. "I'm not weak! And you're not strong! I'll show you just how easy it is!"

And then she swung her own punch, aiming for Celes's face. She'd show him just how easy it was to give someone a bloodied nose! Sure, Chili just finished claiming that real charming people didn't hit, but here she was, throwing all that out the window just to prove another point.

Yeah, that punch landed. By some miracle, however, he wasn't bleeding. Once Celes confirmed that, he turned his attention back to Chili and glared daggers at the waitress. By that point, he had already lost anything that even resembled composure. "Alright, THAT'S IT! I don't care if you're Cress' brother, I'm going to kill you for that!"

And as one would expect, the gambler lunged at Chili with the intention to knock her to the ground and beat the living shit right out of her.

The hotheaded trainer steeled herself for Celes's tackle, only partially having expected him to snap like that. But since one tends to expect what they expect of themselves, it wasn't unbelievable that Chili saw it coming.

The two of them fell to the ground, Chili below her attacker. She grunted, trying to wrestle out of Celes's grasp. "Two can play at this game!!" she yelled, summoning all of her strength in trying to roll Celes off of her so she could pin him against the floor. If she could, Chili had all intentions of doing the exact same thing: beating the shit out of Celes.

Yeah no, Celes is not having any of that shit. With both of his legs on either side of Chili, effectively mounting her, plus a hand at her shoulder blade keeping the fiery redhead steady, you bet your ass he's not about to let this bitch go anywhere. While this position makes it a bit hard to hit her properly, Celes will still attempt to punch Chili's BIG DUMB FACE hard.

Chili struggled enough to lighten the blow by freeing her arm and grabbing onto Celes's wrist, trying to push his DUMB HAND away from her face. It made contact, but not nearly as hard as it could have.

In turn, Chili used her new grasp on Celes's arm to push it away from not only her face, but to finally swing his body off her's. She pinned her down sloppily and hastily with her knee, and without giving it any aim and thought, slammed her own fist down against Celes's face.

This was not getting any prettier.

SUDDENLY...

In the midst of their heated brawl, a jet of water burst in on the scene to burn it out, dousing the combatants in a continual gush of cold water. A hose? An industrial spray gun? Guess again!

And behind that beautiful creature stood a rather cross-looking girl with long blue twintails, her arms tucked over her chest and her hip jutting out insolently.

"Break it up."

What. The. Actual. Fuck. Just. Happened.

No serious, what the fuck just happened? One minute he was beating this dumb bitch's face in, the next he was getting his ass handed to him, and then Chili was over there and he was soaking wet. Looking dazed for a second, it took a few more seconds for Celes to realize what happened. Once he did, though, you can bet he was NOT HAPPY at ALL.

With a scoff, he got up, adjusted his now soaked cravat and walked over towards Cress glaring at her.

"You really should learn how to control your brute of a brother, Cress."

Oh, she adored Celes, all right. But right now, Cress was less than pleased with this show of senseless savagery ~~even with the initial popcorn.gif reaction that happened offscreen~~. "You speak as though he is my responsibility! Sometimes, idiots are just meant to be stupid. It cannot be helped."

Sweeping her bang away from her face and coldly shifting her sights to somewhere far off in the distance, she continued her reprimand. "Besides, if I may add... It was you, Celes, who landed the first blow... Is Cress mistaken?"

Chili was just about to scream at Cress for siding with Celes after what he did to her, punching her so suddenly like that. But then, Cress followed with that last sentence, so Chili stared at her in silence with diluted blood all over her T-shirt and soaking wet from Panpour's blast of water. She didn't bother standing up from her position, sitting on the floor and supporting herself with her palms.

"..."

And the Fire-type specialist did not look very pleased to be in this situation. Not at the water, not at the injuries, not at Celes, and not at Cress. Her silence was scathing. She'd just have to wait to see how the next few seconds panned out.

"Perhaps, but investing in a muzzle certainly wouldn't hurt." said Celes casually, as flicking his ponytail behind him.

As Cress continued to scold Celes...or at least try to, he simply placed a hand on his hip and smiled. "No, you are correct; I did hit Chili, and I would gladly do it again if the oppurtunity presented itself. He...or rather, she, said something befitting of a pig to me, so I merely treated her as such. Family of my boy...er...girlfriend or not, I will not tolerate being treated so poorly."

"What the hell are you talking about?! I just said I couldn't wear your stupid clothes because you have a flatter chest than I do!!" she screamed. "It's just the truth!" Her outburst was not very good to her, and her bloody nose resurfaced full-force. Chili still didn't seem to care about that much.

"And anyway, Cress isn't responsible for me, so stop talking about me as though I'm some pet!!" ...Wait, Celes just called Cress his girlfriend. She could sort of pick up on the vibes, but... That just proved it, and she was going to have a talk with Cress. Later. About them breaking up. For now, she was too busy defending herself.

"Oh don't play all innocent with me!" snarled Celes, turning around to glare at Chili. "The way you said that, combined with your gesture, completely lacked tact at all! Male body or not, I am still a lady who demands respect! You only have yourself to blame for my outburst."

She folds her arms and scoffs. "And you didn't even have the decency to apologize!" although truthfully, it wasn't like she expected the ignoramus to realize he did anything wrong. Chili wasn't exactly the sharpest knife in the drawer.

"Not like you gave me much room to apologize!" she retorted, jumping up to her feet. She placed her hands on her hips. "And now I definitely won't, because there's nothing to apologize for!"

Cress watched the two bicker for longer with rising concern. His girlfriend and his brother were the complete opposite of "getting along" to the point where they looked as though they were itching to launch at each other's throats at any passing moment. It was only a matter of time before someone lost an eye.

"Please! Both of you!" she cried, spreading her hands apart through the air as though to spread the two apart. "You're only making it worse! Let's stop fighting now and talk this over with cool heads."

It didn't bode well for her, knowing that two important people in her life were turning into fast enemies. She wasn't sure whose reported or observed behavior she was most disgusted with, but playing the blame game was useless because they were both being indignant and irrational with spite.

While Celes had an insult ready and raring to go, Cress' words managed to break through his anger. God...he wanted to make Chili pay for what happened, but at the same point and time...he really didn't want to hurt Cress. Uggg, the pain of actually giving a damn about people. Perhaps he was better off before...

No, it's best not to think like that.

His hands shook as he held back the words, clamping his mouth shut so that he wouldn't say something worth regretting later. Finally, after a few seconds, Celes calmed himself down and sighed. "Fine. But I'm only doing this for you."

"Oh, just for Cress?" she repeated, giving Celes a nasty glare. "That's strange, that you think you can show me your true colors and then turn to Cress like that! He's- He's my brother! I don't care what's going on here, Cress deserves better than you!"

By this point, Chili was red in the face with anger.

Cress shoved a rigid finger right in Chili's red angry face.

"Chili? Cease at once. You're only exacerbating this situation! Cress will hear no more of it." She returned her finger to her own personal space and checked Celes, then Chili again, for good measure. She did not look pleased one bit. Panpour ambled closer to his trainer, hoping to remind her that he was there for her if she ever needed it again.

"Now. If it wouldn't be too much trouble... Don't you think apologies are in order?" YES. SHE'S LOOKING AT BOTH OF YOU...

...

Cress, you and Celes are going to have a little chat when this is over.

Gritting his teeth and clenching his fists as they shook, the gambler stood there trying to get a hold of himself. Finally, he let out the most begrudging "I'm sorry" ever to be uttered in the history of mankind.

Chili huffed. She knew. She knew that sorry meant jack shit, and she made that 100% obvious with the way she glared at Celes.

But then, she turned to Cress, redirecting her eye contact. "I'm sorry," she replied back, but kept her eyes on Cress rather than Celes. She planted her hands on her hips, like the problem was fixed and Cress could just leave Celes now. Because this wasn't gonna fly with Chili.

She let go of a breath that she'd been hoarding in her lungs in one even sigh. That had been easier to deal with than she had been anticipating. "Thank you."

But the tension still radiated between them. Cress was tempted to cut it. They would be dealing with each other in the future, whether they liked it or not.

"Now that we've come to an understanding that both of you have something to apologize for, why don't we move on?" She showed them a smile and held out her palm in the way she characteristically gestured. "Cress and Panpour were going to try out the spa together, so we will be taking our leave."

The invitation to join was up in the air for either of them to grab, and she wasn't sure whether they would even be interested in such an activity, but perhaps it would be best that they did not spend time together right now. So long as they parted ways, she could feel more at peace.

"I'm going with you," stammered Chili, trying to push her way in to reclaiming what she felt was hers. "Besides, I haven't been there yet!"

There were no repairs to this relationship. Not from Chili's perspective.
