Brent was still kind of hesitant about this man. Here in the arena, he had no idea what was real and what was just all part of the set-up. The man was looking at him with such a grateful smile that Brent couldn't help but believe him. Even still, he had his wand in the grip of his hand in case he needed it.

Brent gave him a warm smile, because in a way, he could tell the man was hesitant about him, too. He didn't seem so sure about the chocolate either, and really, who could blame him? He finally accepted it, though, and Brent was pretty confident he was going to live now. With a nod, Brent reached into his bag and ate a piece of the life-saving chocolate.

As he chewed, he surveyed his surroundings. He was definitely not in the clear just yet, and who knew what might happen next. He helped the man into a standing position then took a few steps away. The stranger was talking, but nothing he was saying was making sense. No one here? Just the two of them? ... What was the man on about? ... Oh, right! He'd said he had just asked Skylar to be his girlfriend, which he had. Only, the man had no idea who she was or that they were in an arena with an audience watching their every move. Not wanting to confuse him even further, he just smiled and said, "Nope. Just the two of us."

He hoped.

"Well, good to meet you, Mr. Gerald. The name's Brent," he said, and he extended his hand for a shake. So, erm...what now? Was this the end of round one? "Can I help you get somewhere, or...you just out for a walk or something?"
