Lin smiled, placing Zhan's high on her bare thigh. "Then I'm sure we'll make this work."
She laughed. "You're the first guy who's ever wanted me to prattle on instead of getting naked, but whatever you want, tiger."

Lin went on much as she had before. She carefully avoided making any references to her exact age, and quickly moved along topics that didn't end up with her being awesome. Still, she seemed to be honest, and while she may have downplayed the times she fucked up, Zhan got the idea she never really lied about consequences, nor were any of her achievements exaggerated. She just liked to focus on how great she was.
And compared to most of the Dragons he knew, she was certainly humble.
Apparently Lin has started on the "being sexy while beating people up in front of big crowds" tournament circuit about 4 years ago (again, carefully avoiding mentioning her age, although mentioning she had done one or two before that 'when [she] was younger') and had won her fair share. She'd never had a Dragon watching her fight before, though, at least not to her knowledge. The biggest thing she knowingly was at was a tournament down in Yagyu, not too long ago. She lost that one, although she didn't go into too much detail. She did, however, go into great deal about how she beat up that foreign redheaded lady at the tournament earlier, Myfanwy, at it. She neglected to mention how Myfanway made it farther in the tournament than she had. Not that Zhan knew. And, in fairness, Lin's two defeats came at the hands of the woman who ended up beating Myfanway her second time, anyway, so it kind of balanced out.
She'd spent most of her time along those lines. Telling Zhan about all the places she'd been, the faces she'd smashed. Naturally she didn't go into much detail about all the times it was her face getting smashed, but she never seemed to lie about winning fights or tournies she didn't actually win. She also, naturally, didn't mention all the fans she'd picked up in more ways than one along the way, except every now and then just to playfully tease him. She was arrogant, but in her own way it seemed a bit charming.
"And what about you, tiger? I imagine you've seen all sorts of beautiful places. Probably all sorts of strange things too, right? Beautiful dragon women, I imagine, also. I'm sure they're prettier than I am," Lin added, "but I doubt you'll find any Humans better," she laughed.
