A young woman squaring off against a man twice her age and size is enough to draw Fei's attention, but she keeps her distance while their arm wrestling match plays out. She doesn't expect the woman who's also housed at the orphanage to win, but she does expect the brute she's bested to react as gracefully as he has.
Shocked when she spits in the man's face even as he keeps a tight grip on her arm, Fei gets to her feet - it's not the wisest move, but she's got to admire the other girl's guts, even if her methods strike Fei as completely unthinkable.
A fight breaks out and Youhuang hums as it’s pulled from its scabbard, the greenish gold metal catching the dim light of the bar as Fei uses it to parry and repel her way through the main room of the tavern, keeping people away from her without drawing blood - at least not in a fatal capacity.
Killing would have been a quicker way to get through the crowd, sure, but
“You make a strong impression.” Fei lifts her sword to block a chair hurling in their direction while she speaks. “How did you plan to get out now?”
She doesn’t know if Red can fight, but she’s going to have to hope she either can or is willing to move out of Fei’s way while she does. The door isn’t that far away, and while the brawling in the bar is an ugly sight, she doesn’t see anything threatening enough to be concerned about - just a lot of drunk, angry, obstacles.
lady luck loves you (bc how could i not)
