[nehan's stance, despite not moving, is aggressive. it's not the same as the fighting stance he showed to diluc before-- his feet are apart and his arms are crossed, both hands tucked under them, but he holds his head up as if he's looking down at someone shorter despite his small stature. he looks like he's ready to uncoil and strike at any moment. even the clothing he's chosen to wear today sell the image, a fur cloak draped over his shoulders that is easily tossed off, and a high-collared, sleeveless, backless jacket that will let the erune move. nevermind that he's still too thin for someone who is neither dead nor a blood-crazed zealot. or sporting a tail that he didn't have before.
but the fact that he's chosen to stand without his crutch, which has been propped up against his omen splayed out on the ground, is a statement in and of itself.]
No, don't tell me. As I said, use your fists to talk. [it doesn't matter if the likelihood of nehan getting crushed in this session is now higher-- he'd be glad for it, even. it would mean that he truly is weak, and not more powerful than an actual warrior. he wants all to be right with the world, and that involves being the weakest person in the room, because he has trouble perceiving a world where this isn't true.]
