ITP: Fight or flight

[maybe_a_king]

[She's been nervous lately, an ice-cold feeling in the pit of her stomach that had started shortly before her uncle's arrival. It reminds her, vaguely, of when the Blood Fort had gone up around the school and she, Rin, and their Servants had been frantic to bring it down to save the students. Arturia had never before felt such fear, had never felt such urgency as far as she could remember, and it's the same as now. It's as if she can tell something dangerous is coming, something that could lay waste to everyone here and it will be a battle that not even the mightiest among them could hope to come out of alive.

Her only instinct is to fight, but she has nothing to fight. Not yet. There's only so many demons she can fight at night and with her uncle here she has to be more careful to keep him from worrying. Nonetheless, she needs to do something to combat this strange feeling and there's only one thing she can think of:]

I find I have neglected my training since arriving here. Tell me, would anyone like to spar with me in the Capricorn Ward? I would prefer a fellow swordsman, but any others willing would do.

I suppose, and you'll forgive me since my knowledge of such matters is very limited, artificial would be anyone not.... organic? If I'm saying that properly. I apologize, I'm trying not to offend when I've never met the gentleman.

No worries!

No, its all right. Omoikane just has suffered because of people thinking he was a thing and not a person, and I may be a bit over protective of him.

Still, if you would like we can probably set up something in the holo suites. I believe one of the crew had an Arthurian anime transposed into a kendo training exercise, but I rarely check those things.

[maybe_a_king]

He is your friend, yes? I think you would have every right to be protective of him, especially if he's been through such troubles.

We were... Raised together. I guess that would be the best term. I was engineered to operate him and he was built to operate the Nadesico so that it didn't need a crew too large to make its trip. But thank you.
