There are plenty of surprised faces when Mason limps into the arena. The burns are gone but Mason still wasn't cleared to compete yet. Strangely enough, he notices [x] looking in his direction and he scowls.

It was none other than the Rainbow Warrior himself, Neon, standing there while trying to stuff an old bag of sour gummy worms back into his pocket once he realized the attention he got.
Neon "Holy...uh...I would have gotten you some, honest, I just thought maybe you were on a diet or something..."

The history between them was lengthy and extremely bloody. Still, the big man didn't instinctively attack him like some voracious hell-beast going directly after some innocent little soul unfortunately caught in its crosshairs.
Mason Sterling: ...Neon.
It was as close to a pleasant greeting as one could expect from him. Only one person was privy to his more gentle traits and sadly for Neon, they simply weren't here at this particular moment.

Neon relaxed a bit when he realized he wasn't immediately getting ripped in half on sight. He wiped a few sour sugar crystals off of his lips.
Neon "So uh...you ok with the whole..."
He waves a hand over his face, trying to say the burn without saying 'the burn'.

The big man's stare never waivers as he looks down at Neon intently.
Mason Sterling: Take more than a little fire to end me. ( his eyes narrow ) You ought to know that by now.
Almost certainly a reference to their tumultuous history together.

Neon "Oh yeah I know...if I didn't I definitely would have been coming to all of our matches together with a flamethrower. But uh...still doesn't mean I want to see you disfigured or something. Especially with all the creepy groups starting to walk around. I think we need all the muscle we can get."

As much as he hated to admit, he was right about that.
Mason Sterling: Eh, my time will come soon enough and I'll get my hands on the bastard who did that to me. ( he pauses momentarily ) Aren't you chasing after one of them though, the German chick's crazy sister?

Neon "The crazy chi- you mean Lori!? Wh-no! I was just....I don't...Why does everybody think that I..."
He gives a low growl now while being thankful for all the paint on his face at the moment and going to stuff more gummy worms into his maw.
Neon "I was gonna' share these with you too..."

The Silverback almost cracks a grin, considering he had a thing for Lorelei's older sister once upon a time.
Mason Sterling: What, you don't like girls or something?

Queue long awkward pause.

Under normal circumstances, Mason would be the last person you'd want to have this talk with. Then again, Neon was anything but normal. Mason stares down at him momentarily then shakes his head a little.
Mason Sterling: You should talk to her about it. Shit like that can create a huge rift between a couple.

Neon "WE'RE NOT A COUP-"
He just leans back now, dragging both of his hands down his face, growling much like his cousin.
Neon "UGHHHGHGHGHGHGHHHH! I can't talk to her...besides I don't know what to say..."

Mason Sterling: You can't be serious...
The same thought was repeating itself over and over inside his brain. "This can't be the guy who's given me all these problems over the years" Mason continues to stare down at him, the situation growing increasingly awkward between them.

Oh yes it can be, and it is. The same guy who is currently giving Mason more of a headache than usual with his misinformed way that these kinds of complicated relationships were supposed to function.
Neon "Oh I'm serious. I mean, what the flip do you say to someone that scary and cool at the same time? I'm outta' my league dude! Look at my hands..."
He lifts them up, showing how they were softly trembling.
Neon "I haven't even had a Red Bull today. This is just because of our topic of conversation Mason! What is that word, for when you're scared but curious...there's a word for that, right?"

Syren: I'm pretty sure the word you're looking for is 'anxiety'...
The voice comes from directly behind the Rainbow Warrior, who would turn around instantly to find Syren standing there...uncomfortably close. The comment actually makes Mason chuckle but only a little bit as his eyes drift to meet Syren's stare.
