2. Orientation
Paris realized: he did not know what he was doing. Why did he think he could succeed as a pit fighter? Because he found the fighters hot, with Porte being nowhere near an exception?

3. Side Gig
“Oh, it looks like my books have arrived,” said the massive red-and-cream kangaroo. His voice was deep, but soothing like a massage chair. Paris couldn’t help but throw his eyes all over the perfect specimen before him—shoulders almost as wide as he was tall, thick rippling abs, firm pecs, thick legs, and his… well, his…
Paris looked up before his dream-come-true noticed him staring at his crotch.
“S-S-Sultan?” Paris eked out.

Paris sighed. “Like, before I came here, I promised my mom I’d let her watch me fight if we did a public exhibition somewhere she could access.”
“Your mom!” Logan’s eyes lit up, and he started scrubbing Paris down harder like they were late for a dinner date. “She’ll be proud of how far you’ve come in the last few months!”
“No, no no!” Paris said. “I haven’t told her anything about my contract situation!”
