asgardeventide | thirteenth slay ❊ ⊰ voice ⊱ ❊ we are many, we are dust.

I've realized something. ( her voice is level, even, and pleased. she's been thinking since returning from the recent expedition to destroy thiazi. the biggest of the big bads has been vanquished, and in spite of the hardships met and casualties, she's feeling relatively optimistic. ) We're gonna win. They want a war, we'll give 'em one. But.

( and there's always a but... )

I think some of our resourcefulness could be extended if we had more driving physical force. I'm going to reopen defense classes, including some bootcamp-style hard-hitting advanced weaponry. I'm willing to spend most of my time on this between patrols - and you know, food and sleep, the stuff you need to not wither and die - including one-on-one sessions. You're more than welcome to contact me any time, day or night, through your bracelets. First class will meet outside of the Roadhouse tomorrow, about an hour after first light. There will be cardio and strength training to warm up, and the majority of combative instruction will take place at Gefion Park, where there's more room.

Oh - for those I haven't met yet, I'm Buffy. I'll take fighters of all ages, though I'd encourage anyone under the age of like - say, sixteen? - to find less risky means of helping in the war effort. Anyway. Get in touch, we'll talk fight.

There's dummies and shit at the Arena, if you need them. And, umm... What kind of fighting? [He has a few people that are already teaching him but if Buffy knows something they don't, he'll take it.]

Oh, I know - I used to teach my classes there. A while ago, but... That used to be my job here. ( the second part, however, is far more important. ) Anything from basic hand-to-hand to using a heavy broadsword, all the in-betweens... And some bonuses.

Bonuses? [That really catches his attention.] What kind of bonuses?

Maglor's been teaching me to use a sword and Alice - big Alice, I mean -we've been using knives together. And Bucky said he'd teach me. But... [He wants to be able to do better if there's another big fight.]

Hoooow do you feel about crossbows? ( swords are good. knives are good. )

Can you use it one-handed? [He lifts his right arm. There's nothing past where his elbow should be.]

If you train enough, and - ( oh. she stops when she sees his arm. ) Yep. We'll get you a smaller one. They don't pack quite as much of a punch, but they're just as useful. Either that, or we could spend time building up training on your good arm, and figure something else out. ( like a special holder or something, she has no idea, but she wants to help him. )

That... That sounds good. I'm hoping I can get something kind of like Bucky has but... [He doesn't know if it'll work out or how long it'll take if it does.]

One - who's Bucky? And two - what's he have?

He's another guy in the military here. He's got this metal arm that works.

You know, that's probably a piece of technology that the Gods couldn't fashion here. But I bet somebody's got the magic to make something similar work. What about the shadow manipulators?

I hope so. But shadow control... I can't control shadows.

What's your ability?

Controlling bodies.

( WOW WHY IS EVERYONE SHE TALKS TO DARK AND WEIRD TODAY? ) Oh - Well. On the bright side, if you ever get a donated arm or something, you can make it work?

Eww... That's kind of gross. [He didn't ask for this power, Buffy! Even he knows it's rather creepy.]
