Kai scoffed mid-bite. "Hah. You were just lucky. I couldn't use my beasts."
Corrin leaned forward, elbows on the table, smug as hell. "Same here. I wasn't able to unleash my full strength either."
Kai raised an eyebrow. "Sure. Let's call it that."
That lit the spark.
The next few minutes were filled with light jabs.
Corrin poking at Kai's expressionless face. Riven laughing too hard at bad jokes. Kai returning barbed comments with surgical precision, enough to irritate without giving them the satisfaction of a full reaction.
Sevyr just sipped his tea calmly, occasionally raising a brow but otherwise detached. His attention flicked between the three like he was watching a mildly amusing play.
Eventually, Riven stretched, pushing his tray aside. "Alright! There are no lectures till noon, yeah? Let's hit the training field. I need to loosen up before I start rusting."
Corrin smirked. "Finally, something you said that I agree with."
