The damage they've done each other has (largely) been put behind them.
He's done exactly 0 simmilar atonement to Myr despite having done massive collateral damage to him in the process. His jaw tightens, and he gives himself the luxury of letting his ears pin back fully. A full feline wince. There's real contrition in his voice when he responds.]
No, I haven't. I ambushed you while you were drunk. I went well out of my way to avoid seeing what you can do. [That's...something like an apology. He'll get there.] Let's change that.

I can't imagine landing a punch is easy in endless dark. I'll circle you and I want you to keep facing me. Strike when you feel I'm in range. Agreed?
