[It had been a while ever since his first post, to be honest, and really, considering he was freaking out in the remainder of the month, he had good reasons to avoid the network for a while.

...Now, though. He's going to just stare as it recorded, scratching his chin with his right index finger.]

I don't think I've ever asked this before, but how many of you here practice swordsmanship? That is, the art of the sword.

[This is certainly awkward for him, as he's not kinda used to making open posts like this.]

I'm looking for a sparring partner right now, so if you're interested, feel free to contact me.

You had to ask?

[ Really he only goes and tests your adopted babby every day. ]

[hadronknight]

It's polite to ask first before jumping in.

[greyerrant]

I suppose. BUt my stance on blade training was fairly well known.

[hadronknight]

That you're open to any challenge, right?

[maybe_a_king]

Are you going to start up the Kendo Club again, Uncle?

[hadronknight]

Perhaps.

[There's a small smile from him as he sees his niece's face as always.

Well, at least she's alright.]

Someone needs to keep an eye on you after all.

...

Though in your case, a pair of eyes would be a better fit.

[maybe_a_king]

Oh, very funny. You know I can handle myself. [Most of the time.]

[hadronknight]

I have a feeling that if I'm not here, you'll be known as 'The Cat Girl' judging by how many cats you'd have raised without my supervision.

Well, you could say I do.

[hadronknight]

Hm? What exactly do you mean by that, fa- I mean, ma'am?

[Mordred stop regressing to your younger days.]

I do use a sword, but I think it's a different type than anyone on this planet uses, from what I've seen.

...I'm pretty sure it is nothing could be as far-fetched as a giant chainsaw shaped like a sword.

[Taking bets on how bad he'll be surprised at a lightsaber.....]

[greatergone]

Why would you use a sword? Combat at that range is ineffective and useless on the battlefield.

[Tau think melee combat is barbaric and below them, it can't be helped.]

[hadronknight]

...

[There's silence as Mordred received those words; true, practitioners of swordplay had all but dwindled in the modern times, thanks to the advent of modern weapons; still, he thinks that victory by those weapons are...]

I suppose they are, but I believe that one, with enough wit and training, could use that to their advantage.

[greatergone]

There is no advantage to be had when your foe is a kilometer away and shooting at you while you have no means to retaliate.

[hadronknight]

Of course not, though, as of the moment our foes are not ones that wield those kind of weapon, are they?

[Wow, this guy sure is a thorn in someone's bottom.]

[sky_child]

There's a lot of people here who do, I think. But I'm not busy today, so if you want... I used to go to school for it.

[ video ]

[hadronknight]

[Oho, someone's interested.]

...That would be good, yes.

[And the kid has training too, so that's even better for him.]

[dodgecharms]

I'm not the best, but I do swordfighting.

[hadronknight]

[As expected, there's a lot of warriors that favor swords in this place for various reasons, huh. Oh well, at least this means his stay between things wouldn't be that bad, all things considered.]

I see...

If you don't mind me asking, what are you most skilled with in combat?

SO LATE OTL

[dodgecharms]

Daiklaves.

it's alright!

[hadronknight]

And what is a Daiklave, if I might ask?

[Sounds like a strange weapon judging from the name alone... But then again one can't judge a weapon by its name.]

[dreamprotector]

[Hmm, despite the scorpion trouble they had indicating that they'd see some share of combat in this place too, it certainly doesn't hurt to keep his skills up. ...Apart of going out at night anyways.]

...I suppose, I do.

[It's not a sword he's wielding now, but it's close enough.]

And yes, I'm interested.

[hadronknight]

That's good to hear.

[Even though he's a bit confused on the first phrase, but hey. At least another young one is interested in sparring.]

Do you have any time preference?

[dreamprotector]

[It's a giant key thing with blunt edges that still cuts through skyscrapers like through butter? So well. It's sort of a sword?]

Not really. I'm pretty free right now.

[Given that he doesn't have a job. ...He kind of should look into that too.]
