His ear had become infected.

Not a horrible infection, but a nagging, itchy one - and he felt a deep and sudden longing for his friend Juba and his maggots. He couldn't observe it closely and he decided he didn't want to - there was nothing he could do about it save tear strips from his cape for new bandages every day, and wrap the bright orange fabric around his head.

And hunt.



[ooc note: because i'm trying to catch up and do a lot of things at once, i'm willing to do seperate intros for each thread that people want to have with me. So if you want to tag in, pm me with details of what you'd like and I'll write up another intro for you! that way i can keep everything straight in my head and know where he's meeting up with people and when. c:]

Maximus nodded slowly. "How, I don't know. But in the city they watch the arena on walls that move." In all truth, he thought about it little, but being asked directly was an easy enough reminder. "Though we cannot see the stands, this is a gladiator's arena like any other."

"They will likely have cameras everywhere." Gladiator stands - an interesting terminology, and he does not seem to recognize video screens. "Gladiator's arena?"

[gluteus]

Cameras meant nothing to him, though he vaguely knew the word.

"You do not have gladiators, where you are from?" Maximus asked, raising an eyebrow. Both the universes he had seen did - had been the center of his life. It was almost nice to hear of a place that did not have them, so far that even the word was not recognizable. "Gladiators are... Fighters. They are brought into an Arena and made to fight. Either in teams, or singly, or against beasts. A gladiator's sole purpose is to die, for the entertainment of the mob." He glanced up at the sky.

"The concept is one I am somewhat familiar with, but no, we do not have gladiators in my world. Not in that sense, at least." Here, though. It was certainly an accurate depiction of how they were seen by the Capitol. "It would seem that is what we have become, here."
