Looking for Sparring Partner...!

[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.

Uh...fair point, but I don't think he's from this planet either.

Have you ever heard of a lightsaber, by any chance?

[greatergone]

Enemies can change and learn.

[maybe_a_king]

But Mrs. Hara is nice. [aaaaand a little crazy.]

[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.]

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.]

[hadronknight]

[There's a nod from him at the boy's response, even if the second phrase reminded him that he really needs to get a job to support his niece as well.]

Then I suppose you wouldn't mind if we hold our match in the evening, yes?

[hadronknight]

Albeit a little touched in her head.

[Crossing his arms, and huffing btw.]

[hadronknight]

And so does all of us.

[Keep your composure, Mordred, just. Keep your composure...]

..........

[There's a small silence from his end.]

...You mean a sword that has a beam of light working as its blade?

[hadronknight]

Hm, hm. I was interested in seeing what kind of swordsmanship inhabitants of this place holds, that is all.

[maybe_a_king]

She is not.

[Totally is. Also huffing a bit as well.]

She is a perfectly nice woman who likes to tip me with cookies and tea.

[echo_of_a_jedi]

Yes, exactly. Well, the mechanics are a little more complicated, but that's the idea.

[dodgecharms]

It's basically a huge sword.

[hadronknight]

Would a normal blade even be able to clash with it?

[Is the question he asks while he shoves that fanboy part of him to the back of his head.]

[hadronknight]

Larger than a broadsword?

[Because that's pretty huge for him alright...]

[hadronknight]

Whose cats tend to view me as a sodding scratch post.

Adding a layer of cortosis weave was common in the galaxy I came from, but I guess there was never a need for it here, so no one's ever heard of it. Or phrik, or anything else that would stop an energy beam, really.

[maybe_a_king]

Because they like you. They think you're going to feed them. [Only to get cat hair all over his clothes. Thank God Mordred isn't allergic.]

[hadronknight]

And feed them with what? Annoyance?

[Cats are sort of a sore spot for him alright...]

[hadronknight]

I see.

[Most of the terms were lost on him, but he's certain that at the very least, he needs some kind of coating on his blade in order to properly facilitate sparring against a weapon of that kind.

...Hm...]

Maybe I should see if there's a material with a similar property in this place.

Video

[echo_of_a_jedi]

I should probably see about making a training saber if I want to practice with anyone.

[maybe_a_king]

No. Tuna. Or poultry.

[dreamprotector]

[Have a nod in return.]

Not at all.

[hadronknight]

Unfortunately I don't carry them with me all the time.

[Especially when he has to drag you out of the house.]
