[ though there are limits to how in his face Blue can get with height differences in mind, Raihan doesn't flinch when he does. he's admittedly interested to see how close he gets in such a public setting, watching him with relaxed eyes. ]

When else am I gonna get an opportunity like this?

[ ...well, he's not sure what exactly to expect, but getting manhandled like this certainly isn't. he flinches when Blue yanks his uniform shirt down and his hoodie up, taking a grip onto his wrist. ] Woah, easy! If you wanted my shirt off, you could just ask.

[ his brow raises again, but this time in surprise. so Blue doesn't know... he glances at Lance for the explanation, but figures that it could use a little more elaboration. ]

Hammerlocke's had this uniform for decades. There's history behind it! [ he looks over at Lance for confirmation. ] I wasn't Leader when Lance came around to train, but the whole city was honoured when we got word that we left that much of a good impression.

[ a Champion from a foreign region decided to honour their uniforms - it caused quite the buzz, and Raihan is still proud of it! ]
