The deity Yama was originally hIndu, and then Buddhist, and then just sort of bled into a lot of near and far-eastern traditions. In Japan, he is called "Enma."
Enma is the unforgiving judge of the dead. He is in charge of meteing out karmic punishment on those who deserve it - but not before, of course, asking them if they ever stopped to consider what they were doing. But he does show mercy if someone's karma is good
[20:12] Taladis Tower wrinkles his nose at Harlequin then Tawney, ignoring his own previous post. Ret-con! Tal grunted out, "Since you're first time fighters, you'll fight to a ten minute time limit. There will be a finish when the time limit is up - or if someone is knocked out, someone submits, or someone is pretty much getting their ass handed to them and can't understand. Marina or I will stop the fight in that case. Do you understand?"
[20:13] Harlequin Salome: Just being sure how hard I can hit you... I really would like to avoid killing you if you're a squishy." He tenses a little, then relaxes... and then suddenly realizses he has his glasses on. Tossing them up to the UAC woman for fun. The rules get a fast nod. "Roger that."
[20:16] Tawney Foxclaw she nodded to tal " yeaup got it rien you get to drag to the mc okay!"
[20:16] Taladis Tower reached up for a moment, and then slapped his hand on the railing, "Then - brawl."
[20:18] Tawney Foxclaw she dropped into t a defensive stance moving to the side a bit tilting her head studing him to see what would be the best way to aproch it " well you gonna stand there all day ?" she was a lil nervous hadnt been in the pit in a long time she had no idea waht she was up against
[20:21] Harlequin Salome smiles and lowers his own stance. he takes a few steps forward. he hooks his foot down and suddenly surges at the woman. he hops off, and lands in a crouch, then surges up with an uppercut for her middle. He's fast. Goddamn fast.
[20:25] Tawney Foxclaw she took the hit to the gut she surged backwards a step to catch her breat fuck he hit hard she growled a bit feeling her adrenalin hit hard she crouched low very low she was short so it was easy she lunged forward hard as she could she wasnt no slow poke for sure attempting to sspear him at the knees she had to get him off his feet that was for sure this would even perhaps knock him off the platform and into the water below
[20:28] Harlequin Salome would have never expected anyone to purposefully go into the water... as he is speared he falls back, his left leg flares as the old knife wound is hit. Water cascades as they splash into it. One hand spears for her shoulder as one of his legs moves in tadem to try and hurl her back into the side of the platform he was just knocked off of.... goddamn that leg was going to hurt later.
[20:30] Taladis Tower blinked a few times as he reached and grabbed onto the railing and hopped onto the platform. He walked over to the edge of it looking down at the two that were now in the water.
[20:33] Tawney Foxclaw she landed wiht a hard thud in teh water is covered her in the nasty much soaking her cloths through the weight of the fall caused her to be hit hard wiht the hand the legs how ever missed there mark she rolled as she hit the concreat moving to stand and fast hopefully before he had a chance to regain his footing she would pounce trying to land so her knees would spread to pinn his upper body ana fist hurled downwards twords his face she wanted blood damn it
[20:36] Harlequin Salome: His face turns to one side as she strikes him, and he gets a taste of the nasty water, now tinged faint red with his blood. He snarls and seems almost excited by this... he turns his head and spits a mouthful of the horrid water for her face.. then smashes his forehead for her nose, while grabbing for her shoulders to try and hurl her again hard into the concrete. His plan is simple. Get her on the wall, then beat her as savagly as possible.
[20:42] Tawney Foxclaw she felt the water hit her face and in reaction turned her head the for head however would hit her squar in the eye boy that was gonna leave a mark she flet his hands as they pushed agaisnt her shoulder she used this to give herself momentem she leaps back wards off him lansing very much on her feet and slipping on the slimmy bottom her back hit the wall she wiped the muck from her eyes locked on him intenetly whispering to her self always a way out remmber always a way out under her breath she waited to see what hed do next
[20:51] Harlequin Salome moves in, as if he's going for the obvious approach, right in. He feints with his left then at the very last second, moves quickly to the right... his right foot lashes for her knees in a sweep, his right hand in a hook for her side. Again, one would notice he's wicked fast... he's not a mech, but he's very obviously not a human nor a hybrid.
[20:54] Tawney Foxclaw she would swing hard an uppercut soon as he was in range aiming for his chin she grunted as the ard blow hit her side and as her feet are sweept she would use that force to also send her knee up hard as she could to hopefully land in his groin as she let the moment carry through and she landed with a tud to the left of him in the water making it to her knees as she tried to catch her breath
[20:58] Harlequin Salome moves his left hand down and across his body to strike at her leg, deflecting it and trying to grab on and throw her with it. Her punch lands and hits his jaw, but he's already commited. his right hand, having hit her side, will slam in again towards her ribs with bone crushing force. He knows time is approaching fast, and wants to essentially break her body, and hurl what is left across the field.
[21:03] Tawney Foxclaw she is kicked hard and feels a rib break but shes caught up in the rage of the fight she makes it to her feet tho she soaked and her lip is bleeding she hit the concreat and busted her lip when she landed she grolwed loud she was pissed now she cahrged for him it hurt like hell but she really didnt care she had been coming at him wiht her fists but at the last instant before inpact she twisted her right foot would shot out powerfully th land right behin his knee she wanted to break it wiht everything she had in her the fired thre hard kicks to the same spot if it landed she would drop her foot and leap back out hte way of retaliation breathing hard
[21:06] Harlequin Salome feels his knee give way under the impact and twists to one side to avoid it shattering... she was fast, that much was sure... hearing the time being called, the ex-soldier's hands grab at her as his one knee slams into the water... and he twists with another snarl. She's quick, but he knows he's faster, and stronger. Throwing style to tbhe wind he lets his natural ability take the day as he tries to just slam her down as hard as he can, through the water and into the stone below. She'd pissed him off, and killing her was no longer a fear, he was fighting as hard as he could.
[21:07] Taladis Tower barked out the word, "Stop!" at the top of his lungs at that. He'd prepared to move down as the two contineud to go on, but he wasn't going to just in just yet. "You two will now seperate. Jan, Rein - come here."
[21:08] Reinhardt Stenvaag: Yo tal. *he says almsot from the cats elbow already*
[21:08] Taladis Tower glances over at Rein, and grunts. "I see you."
[21:08] Janeiro Renard blinked, as his name was called. He looked over to Tal, and quirks a brow. "What? Me?"
[21:09] Harlequin Salome releases his foe and stands, wincing at his now aching knee. He decides better to be in screaming pain later than show pain now, and does his best to stand, though he's obviously favoring one leg. Looking down at his foe, under the water... he laughs.
[21:10] Tawney Foxclaw she leps up at the water to her feet inhaling a breath shed been holding she moved back and tilted her head at him as the adremalin ebed out of her she bowed slightyly " good fight" she offers him her hand
[21:10] Taladis Tower turned his head as he looked over at Janeiro, and grunted out, "Yes - you."
[21:11] Harlequin Salome reaches out a hand to shake it. "How many ribs broken?" He felt the wonderful feel of bone giving way... even the gash on his lip already had clotted over... the grin he gives isn't one of a man who had exerted himself hard. Howmuch of it was an act, who knows.
[21:12] Tawney Foxclaw she grinned " one .. hows that knee?"
[21:12] Taladis Tower turns back to Rein, and grumbles again as he leans towards the large man. About the only time you'd ever see Tal leaning over towards Rein it seemed like. Grumbling something to him, he nodded his head and then looked down at the two.
[21:13] Janeiro Renard pointed to the women, and called back, "I'm fuckin' busy, here." He turned his attention back to the women, and noticed as they were talking about... birds? He furrowed his brow, and tried to catch up.
[21:13] Taladis Tower turned his head again as he grunted out, "Is it a fight? Because I've got something to suggest to you."
[21:14] Harlequin Salome looks up at Taladis. "You called time... I'm prefectly happy to batter her more. Just trying to follow rules and all."
[21:14] Janeiro Renard sighed, as the conversation turned over his head. He walked over to the pit, and vaulted over the rail, meeting the two men.
[21:15] Tawney Foxclaw she turned not paying any mind to his comment her hair was wet as well as her white and rather see through tshirt now waiting to see what was said
[21:15] Taladis Tower quirked a brow at the next comment, turning his head as he looked back towards Harlequin and Tawney, "I was just discussing who Rein thought won with him." The dark cat said, before leaning forward and crouching over to tap his claws on the edge of the concrete, "And it's unanimous, Harlequin is the winner." He said - boosting his voice for the last part. Standing up he turned towards Jan and glanced him over for a few seconds.
[21:16] Harlequin Salome bows in a manner that recalls the Japanese styles, first to his opponent, then to the judges. "Most appreciated."
[21:17] Tawney Foxclaw hse let her eyes look over quin he looked a bit worse fro wear than she did and that was fine wiht her she returned the bow to both thinking atleast now she had valuable information about him for later use.. she moved over to the ladder she wasnt showing any pain if in fact she was in pain and up she whent
((Would have had Rein vs Ash on here, but I crashed, and so did everyone that had it. :\ ))

Couple Gets Married After Waiting 23 Years
By Jami Brinton, Reporter

IOWA CITY - More than 40 same-sex couples applied for a marriage license in Johnson County alone today.
Among those, one couple didn't want to wait to get married.
It isn't the typical way to start your wedding day.
Instead of primping and preparing to walk down the aisle, Lois and Karen Gray filled out paperwork for a marriage license.
"It's a really significant moment for us," said Lois.
Lois and Karen fell in love 23 years ago.
They've already shared much of their lives together but having this piece of paper is important to them.
"It's really wonderful to say no just this is my life's partner, but my wife, we're married," said Lois.
Lois and Karen didn't want to wait the required three days to get married.
So, this afternoon they asked Judge Stephen Gerard to let them exchange vows now.
The judge agreed and just a few hours ago they said "I do" in a private ceremony at the Johnson County Courthouse.
Afterwards they showed us the gold bands they exchanged during the ceremony. They were the same rings they gave each other in 1986.
"It was really special," said Lois. "I'm just still feeling overwhelmed, but overwhelmed with joy."
Their daughter Lauren agrees.
"It's really special because now they're married by the law," said Lauren.
A wedding day they've always dreamed of.
"It was," said Lois. "I think its this sense of we feel so married in our hearts and minds already but it was so affirming to have the legal recognition that so many other Iowans enjoy."
Even though their marriage became official today the Grays say they'll still celebrate their silver anniversary in two years.
