"Sure you did." Caspar's dry tone hides his worry over what other tricks 'Josh' has hidden up his gaudy sleeves. "Trust me, you are vastly overestimating your presence here. If anyone bothers to bring you up, it'll only be as the flavor-of-the-week megalomanic. And you'll be in shitty company."

He takes a step back when the other man descends. A quick glance towards Adia when she squeaks in fright at being hoisted like a baby animal, but she settles quickly once she realizes what Hydreigon is trying to do. Wrapping her arms around the dragon's main neck, she tries to keep her eyes on the impending fight below. It's a relief to see that Persian isn't interested in fighting, but what does that truly matter, now that 'Jeff' is possessed by a dark god? "Caspar, look out!" she cries out when the other man starts swinging.

Caspar raises his sword and blocks the blow, grunting with the effort, then takes a swing of his own, attempting to push the other man back towards the stairs.
