"Here you go sir. Nuts and ale." the server gives you a sack of nuts which kind of looks like peanuts and the ale has an after taste which feels a little tarry (like tar).
"No charge sir."

Alexia sits down and begins stroking her robot like a cat. It doesn't seem to mind. "Hey, could I get some popcorn over here?"

Ember walked... okay, was shoved ... through a heavy, iron door, the echoes of the crowd's roar intensifying with each step. The air grew thick with the metallic tang of blood, the pungent scent of sweat and fear, and a faint, acrid whiff of something primal and untamed. Or maybe it was just the stench of badly roasted nuts and bad tea?
The transition from the dimly lit passage to the dazzling expanse of the arena was jarring. Smokey torches flickering and throwing odd shadows on the crowd and the fight pit; the smoke so thick it makes Ember's eyes water. His feet sink into the loose sand with each step, the grit shredding his cloth boots.
The cheers and jeers of the spectators crash over him like a wave, a cacophony of sound that threatens to overwhelm his senses. Ember hears the shouts of the crowd, some encouraging, some mocking, and the occasional clang of metal as fighters in the training grounds spar behind the cages at the back of the arena.
The vast (for Ember) circular arena stretches out before him, ringed by tiers of wood benches packed with a fervent crowd. The air vibrates with anticipation, a palpable tension building towards the clash that is about to erupt.
Ember looks about, "Just what am I supposed to do?"
Chuck gets a wide eyed look as he tries and succeeds in just dodging the blow! He goes for another clumsy swing the his morning star!
Whoosh Attack: 13 Damage: 10

One of the serving men ask if the party wants refreshment before their turn in the Pit?
Light snacks, beer, wine?
Smoke, sniff?

"Hey hey! look the lady is facing Chuck the easy Buck! Come on, you know she's gonna take him out, put some coin down!" The weasley fellow cries.
Several people tell him to shut it, intro fights don't matter.
"No way! Just you watch! she's my new champion!"

HE'S BACK... AND WEIRDER THAN EVER!
There is a spatter of applause as Chuck goes down gripping his guts. A couple of thugs in long bloody leathers come out to drag him away.
"You see you see? She's my new champion!"
"Hey, Nuts!" a man pokes Grey, "You're up! Don't worry, nobody will touch your drink." he motions to the Pit. The crowd nearby looks on expectantly.
OOC: Yes, Grey is expected to enter the Pit and fight Alexia. You two can narrate the fight however you two want.

You see Chuck stumble into the arena wearing leggings and no shirt. He looks a lot worse for wear.
"Wall Weapons it is!"
Chuck turns to one of the various handles sticking out of the walls and pulls out a halberd. He rushes forward to cleave you in two!
