☨ Fourth strike [video]

[white-knightin.livejournal.com]

So the little party over the weekend was a success, and I hope everyone who came enjoyed it. [He smiles a little somewhat proud of him self for putting it together.]

On a more serious matter, I'm looking for a squire or someone willing to learn the art of sword play. Normally I would keep one of two people who are in their teens as them but in this day and age that might be a bit of a problem.

[There's a small sigh and a look of disappoint but he keeps going like nothing happened.]

If anyone would like to take up the offer then please talk to me as soon as you can so I can get the extra equipment needed.

Also Lancelot we need to go see Arturia sometime soon, it's important I'm sure she has already said something but it never hurts to inform someone again.

It was a fun party! I can't help you with your need for pupils though. I've got all the weapons I need already.

[white-knightin.livejournal.com]

I'm glad you enjoyed it, maybe I should throw another one sometime in the future?

I'll find someone hopefully, learning how to use a sword is a valuable skill for anyone.

[nomammano.livejournal.com]

Yeah! Can it be sentai movies next? Those are the best.

[white-knightin.livejournal.com]

Sentai? Like people in those colored suits saving the day?

[nomammano.livejournal.com]

[Miki is getting pretty excited over this. The volume of her voice is reaching a level to match her enthusiasm.]

Yeah! And they fight awesome aliens and monsters that get bigger when they lose!

[white-knightin.livejournal.com]

If the monsters get bigger if they lose doesn't that mean there's no way for the heroes to beat them?

[nomammano.livejournal.com]

No!. Usually the good guys have a giant robot they can get into. Then they fight again.

[white-knightin.livejournal.com]

A giant robot does sound interesting, they have those sorts of things in this era?

Hiatus? What hiatus? May have to backtag at a later date, but Mitsuo!muse wants this bad.

[Mitsuo's face comes over the monitor, looking more than a little conflicted. His expression contorts through a few levels of uncomfortable before he finally speaks. He hates it when he has to suffer a blow to his pride, but this one is necessary to defend himself later from all these psychopaths that want him dead.]

...I'm interested.

[white-knightin.livejournal.com]

Do you have any skills? Know how to use a sword?

Even if you know nothing I'll be able to teach you the basics. But you'll need to prove your self by surviving what ever training I have in store before we get to any real combat.

[voidquesting.livejournal.com]

No. That's why I said I wanted to learn.

And if this whole 'proving myself' thing is just going to be you trying to kill me, save it. I've already got guys lined up around the block who want to do that.

[white-knightin.livejournal.com]

The threat of death is always there, even in training which is why even if you have people who are out to get you. You still need to treat any training we do as if I were one of them.

[voidquesting.livejournal.com]

Last time it took me a whole week to respawn. Wouldn't it be better if you didn't kill me so we'd have more time to train?

[white-knightin.livejournal.com]

Respawn? Thats what people are calling it? [He's quite confused on how the death system works still.]

That is true but given how this place lets people come back to life it is a valuable tool in a way. Being killed is something to avoid but being able to come back even a week later gives someone time to reflect on what they did wrong and fix the problem so it doesn't happen again.

[voidquesting.livejournal.com]

Yeah, well, I've already been killed once, so we can skip that part if you don't mind.

[nrvn-qsr.livejournal.com]

I'm not interested on your training offer, but if you want a sparring partner, only a Saber class can take on a Saber class, don't you think?

[white-knightin.livejournal.com]

I agree, only a Saber class would be on equal ground as another Saber class. I'm more than willing to have a duel with you, it will be a good test of skills and highlight what we need to work on.

[nrvn-qsr.livejournal.com]

Just what I wanted to hear!

Very well, say the time and place, and our blades will cross.

[white-knightin.livejournal.com]

How next weekend then? That gives us a week or so to get ready and get any supplies and equipment.

[nrvn-qsr.livejournal.com]

As long as it is early in the morning or in the afternoon, as we will be celebrating on the night.

[white-knightin.livejournal.com]

How about next Saturday morning then? After we eat breakfast of course.

[nrvn-qsr.livejournal.com]

Sounds marvelous. Where do you want to meet? I suppose a rooftop should be quiet enough to carry on our business without interventions...

[arondights.livejournal.com]

[There's a sigh.]

Very well, we shall.

...In regards to your sparring request...

[Silence.]

Let us finish what we started.

[white-knightin.livejournal.com]

Gladly, name the time and place and I will show up. You can even bring any equipment you'll think will help you win. No handicaps or time limit either.

[arondights.livejournal.com]

[And with that Berserker discloses a discrete location, namely a deserted field, as well as the time of the duel, which will take place at noon.

...Good thing Gawain doesn't have his enhancement from fighting at noon.]
