Marmaduke starts at first, then narrows her eyes at Morthos. "Is that right?" She asks, releasing her hold on the flyer to start reaching for one of the Axe at her waist. She stops mid-way though realizing belatedly what had been meant, and with gaze averted to the countertop, quickly re-directed her hand towards gently nudging the tiefling off her. Other than that, she won't cut into the conservation. Yet.

Grianne wakes up in the medical tent with the "mysterious masked hunter" asking for his button. (how obvious is it that its Shmitty?) She also hears Eldin I think we both underestimated our opponents. That will change. To the hunter that may or may not be Shmitty in disguise Who are you and why do you want one of my buttons. They are special to me and not given out lightly.

Mortho is going to walk up to Zevryl and Marmaduke , leaning to marmaduke "Im full demon" aand ill look to Zevryl and say "hello! I am Morthos, we fought on opposite sides during our introductory fight. I had to introduce myself." Morthos grabs his shoulder and goes for a handshake, "Its rare to find someone with the infernal bloodline, where are from?"
"Zevryl Gaunaduar, from th' Glacierock Mountains, up to th' north. Wher're ye from?" He turns to Marmaduke. "Devil, specific'ly Levistus. Why're ye askin'?"
(S/N: Removed the bet option for the 5th Round hazard)
"Oh! Oh... Well, I had hoped it wasn't true, because maybe then, you could -- Oh by Mya's bosom! Is it already that time?!" Marmaduke exclaims catching at least part of the next fight's announcement over the din. "Shite! Ho--I-I be right back!" With that, she'll gathers back up all her material, hops out of her seat, and to find the bulletin board and post her flyer. If need be, she'll even sacrifice one of her daggers to keep it pinned in her hurry.
There isn't much panache to the sign aside from the deeply etched text, and the drawing beneath. And frankly, it'd be a miracle if anyone really takes notice of it among the more colorful displays.
"Extra coin weighing you down? Or maybe, not enough!? " "Do you think perhaps you know your favored champion well enough to defy whatever odds are laid before them?" "Or perhaps you're in need of a little something extra to spice up the competition for ya!" "If the answer to any of this is a yes, then step on into the Glory my friend, and ask for the purple drag worm at the bar. For who knows, maybe they'll have a solution just. For. You~"
Beneath the sign, and etched in pencil is the likeness of a rather cartoony dragon winking at the reader.
(For Quality of the drawing & Funsies - Sleight of Hand: 22)
Either that dragon is winking or squinting. Also, might not even be a dragon, but a deformed dragonborn.
Job done, she lingers only out of nervousness, biting her lip, but will quickly duck into the bathroom (if not a quiet corner if for some reason /that/ isn't a thing too for the Glory). Minutes of fussing later, she emerges bedecked in purple cloak and hair pushed up to mask most of her eyes. She's all but a blur of activity after that, because with clap sparking miniature arcane flashes, she rushes from one spot to the next, sticking around only long enough to try coyly draw in potential betters: starting with those mentioned in Gorakk's ledger. By the end of her trek, she'll settle back by the bar, ready to intercept any future "customers" that might've caught the sign.
"So!" She claps her hands together. "Where we again?" She asks, having forgotten about the 'disguise' already.

"Oh! That! Welll… if you were secretly of dragon blood -- don't know why you'd hide it, but to each his own -- then I could, mmm, I hoped to poke you're brain about it a bit. Like, siblings!" She pauses, and then awkwardly coughs into the back of her hand and says, "But not actual siblings. You are far too handsome to be of that sort." She says aloud, though looks away and mutters, "Not that even have a Clan."
Turning to Og next, she starts to take down his bet, though hesitates at the second one. "I did set clear stakes options... though it was more for simplicity sakes than anything else." She clicks her tongue and taps her chin a few times. "No. Sorry. The Minimum is 10gp per category plus commission on each. So if you want to put down 10 each, that'll be.... 24. Otherwise, I can just accept the 1st for just the 12."

Marmaduke, the fans in the Coliseum are pleased to jump in on the action, covering the spread nicely, but you get the impression some are deterred by your high commission. (I'll roll the take after the match.)
Shmitty pulls his mask up to reveal his face. "Oh, hey! Sorry I forgot I had that on." Shmitty shows off his bare un collared neck with jazz hands. "Tada! Long story short,I broke my collar, the drow came, Basil let me die in my last arena match to fulfill the contract. There was a darkness? Then boom I'm back!"Shmitty looks over to Eldin and shoots him finger guns. "Sorry for any bad blood for contract work? I'm a professional you know the deal right?" Finally, Shmitty turns back to Grianne, "So...can a brotha get a button?"
