Comments

[ Open! ]

[willnotdespair]

[ It was normal for Mithos to be at Morning Training, especially after having received a sword from the Watch to work with. While he may be a weapon there was always the possibility that he would need to defend himself. After what happened during Death City's attack this was even more true. What happened during the attack certainly wasn't what he wanted to go through again.

He'll be around practicing on training dummies as well as doing some watching during his breaks. Seeing others train was one way to learn after all. Feel free to come bother him! ]

[motherofthesun]

[Amaterasu doesn't instruct, but she does observe everyone training before heading off to lay down. That's when she spots Mithos standing over on his own, looking like he's training himself...]

[... Sneak attack mode. She trots up behinds him and pokes him in the back with her nose.]

[willnotdespair]

[ Mithos had just finished attacking a dummy and was thinking of other ways to practice before he felt something poke him from behind. He spun around before noticing the white wolf. ]

O-Oh! Hello!

[ Hmm... they look familiar. From the DEMISE maybe? Either way he smiles lightly. He can speak to animals much better than he can speak to humans. ]

Do you need something?

[motherofthesun]

[Does she need anything? Honestly?]

[Not really... but she's going to nudge him again, her tail swishing at his smile.]

[willnotdespair]

[ Mithos smiles more as he bends down to her height and sets the sword on the ground. ]

You're a friendly one, aren't you? [ Here. Have a pat on the head ]

[blossomgale]

[ Sophie is also practicing on a dummy nearby, but she can't help but stop to watch Mithos. She doesn't realize he's the same person she spoke with over her communicator yet. For a second, she thinks she's looking at a younger Richard... at least from the back.

She walks up to him to get a closer look. ]

...hello?

[willnotdespair]

[ Mithos swings the practice sword that he was using at the dummy in front of him. He slashes at it's torso, causing a big gash. Hm... could be better but it was all right considering how dull the practice sword was.

He then hears someone and turns around. Oh hey he recognizes you! ]

Hm? O-Oh... Hello there. Uhm... Sophie.. right?

[blossomgale]

Huh? Oh... [ Up close, she can see the differences now. Nope, not Richard. She looks mildly disappointed for a moment. ] Yes, I'm Sophie.

[ The voice sounds familiar though and she hasn't really spoken to any other boys that are close to her "age" age. Who else would this person be? ]

And you're... Mithos?

[willnotdespair]

[ A small tilt of the head upon seeing the disappointed look. Was she expected him to be someone else?

Well... Regardless he was right. That was a good thing. Mithos nods his head as Sophie gets his identity right as well. ]

That's right. It's uhm... good to see you in person?

[ He's gotten a little better at speaking to new people but... not by much. ]

[kill_some_time]

[Hades simply seems to appear out of the thin air behind the yong half-elf like the creeper he is.]

You seem to be doing better again.

[willnotdespair]

[ Mithos stops in mid-swing as he hears the God behind him. That voice... it was easily recognizable. He ended up sticking by the owner's of the voice's side for a few days after all.

He lowers the practice sword but doesn't turn around to face the God. ]

... I am, thank you.

[kill_some_time]

[He comes one more step closer and then stands still. Perfectly so.]

What for?

[willnotdespair]

[ Mithos continues to look at the dummy instead of turning to look at the God. ]

... Nothing.

[ Actually it was for asking but... ]

I really should've tagged you long before this.

[scatterflower]

*Chika smiled as she walked through the training grounds, just watching some of the people who were practicing as well. She's looking at the boy who's hitting the dummies with his practice sword, and grinning a bit. He looks like he's pretty good at that.

She should probably get to attacking some dummies herself, so she sets up at one near him, sinking down into a fighting stance and throwing a couple of punches at it.*

You're pretty good with that sword.

Hehe. Better late than never? ♥

[willnotdespair]

[ While still concentrating on the dummy in front of him Mithos notices the girl who sets up one up near him. He glances over and watches before attacking his own dummy and few times and finishing off with what could have been a Tiger Blade (if Death City didn't take away his techniques) before responding. ]

You're a pretty good fighter yourself.

[ Attacking with no weapon or magic was something the boy never did much of. ]

Yeah, guess so!

[scatterflower]

*Chika smiled, looking over at him as she sent two punches right towards the dummy's 'face'.*

Thanks. I don't really have that much experience in actual fights though. I only really have what happened to me here to really go on.

[willnotdespair]

[ Mithos tilts his head to the side as he pauses his attacking. ]

O-Oh? I... guess it's a good thing. But from the looks of your training you can do pretty well in a fight even if one is just practice.

[ With that he proceeds to attack the dummy again. Attacking it a few times with the sword and finishing it with a slash at the stomach ]

This late is totally just me being IC... >_>

[boredallready]

[Lloyd was making his way to the practice dummies to focus on his usual dual blade technique for a little while. He spots Mithos working, however, and approaches him. He never really had a good chance to see how he fought after learning that he could. He watches for a moment.]

Hey, Mithos! Are you just practicing right now?

Pffft. Sounds good to me!

[willnotdespair]

[ Mithos had been practicing to get behind an enemies' back and striking from behind. He stands in front of the dummy and positions himself before rushing forward. Right before reaching the dummy he swerves and hits the of the dummy with the practice sword.

Once finishing his move he steps back and looks at the damage. Better... not still not enough. He sighs softly before hearing Lloyd's voice and turning in its direction. ]

Hm? Oh. Hey Lloyd. [ He glances back at the dummy before looking to Lloyd again. ] Y-Yeah. Trying a technique I didn't get to practice much with Kratos.

[boredallready]

Really?

[Well that has him curious. If Mithos was supposed to be the hero of the Kharlan War, he was probably a lot farther along than Lloyd. Which was really weird to think about from his initial opinion.]

What are you trying to do?

[willnotdespair]

[ Mithos nods his head before walking over to dummy. ]

Going around an opponent and hitting them from the back. I've managed to hit some of the weak spots fairly well but I still have far to go until I can do as much damage as I do from the front.

[ He walks around to the other side of the dummy and inspects the other side and inspects the damage differences before he started to walk back to where he first stood. ]

[knightofcourage]

[Emil's just arrived (hey, it's morning), and...oh look, another kid with a sword. After watching for a little bit, he decides to speak up.]

Wow, you're pretty good. Have you been learning to fight for long?

[willnotdespair]

[ Mithos had just finished attacking the dummy when he hears someone speak up. Wiping the sweat off his forehead he lowers his sword and turns around. The voice seems familiar but he can't put a name on it yet. ]

A-Ahh... thanks. I started learning how to fight with a sword after meeting my mentor so.. it hasn't been very long.

[knightofcourage]

Really? Well, you seem pretty good to me.

[Not that he really remembers any given battle in detail anymore, but...still. He knows how his friends fight.]

Your mentor must be proud of you, whoever he is.

[willnotdespair]

[ Mithos laughs sheepishly at the compliment ]

T-Thanks! I'm working hard to make both myself and my mentor proud.

[ He then smiles ]

You might have met him! He's currently here in Death City as well.
