natasha is used to being up against people that outclass her in height, weight, strength. speed. she's fought aliens and gods and everything in between by now — you don't have to be the best, you just have to get enough of a read on your opponent to put your strengths against their weaknesses.
it's a game of basketball. she probably shouldn't take it seriously. but it's a fun challenge just the same. she lets him chase her around, chases him, and generally there's a flow to the game, that sort of give and take you can lose yourself in.
it's — nice.
after a while, though, she stops on her side of the line, dribbling the ball idly with her left hand. )
I'd say we've got some fans.
( a few of the younger thessyx seem to have gathered at the edge of the court, their gills fluttering in curious interest. )
