Sparring

[soul_mods]

[And for those who want to see what getting your ass kicked feels like.]

Re: Sparring

[pridefulness]

[ Guess who looks like he's ready and rearin' to fight someone. This kid here. He's actually sizing everyone up, trying to pin-point who would be the biggest challenge. He might be eight, but he's pretty darn confident in his fighting abilities.

So bring it, bros. ]

*Chika blinked, looking over at the very familiar boy who was standing there ready to spar against people.*

What are you doing over here?

[pridefulness]

Looking for someone to fight.

[ Said very in a very matter-of-fact manner. Like beating people up and fighting it's a normal, every day occurrence. ]

[scatterflower]

*Chika just stares.*

And what exactly makes you think that you're capable of fighting people who are training to fight in a war?

[pridefulness]

I've been training since I could walk, you know, and I've taken on guys bigger than half the people here.

[scatterflower]

... Okay. Fair enough.

*It's not like Chika could really claim that he was lying, after all. She knew Ikuto could definitely hold his own around around Trunks' age. Though, the fact that they don't have powers might make things a bit difficult here.*

Quick question though. Did you have any special powers back home?

[usedforcepalm]

[What about sisbros? Hanabi greets Trunks with a small wave.]

Good morning, Trunks.

[pridefulness]

[ Sisbros are definitely allowed. Trunks waves in return, happy to see a familiar face. ]

Hey, Hanabi. How are you today?

[usedforcepalm]

I'm doing well, thank you. How about you?

[She's fairly certain he'll want to spar, but a little conversation first never hurt anyone.]

Open

[motherofthesun]

[As the overseer of sparring today, Amaterasu sits and watches the other Guests go at it. She could join when asked, but her own co-workers wouldn't be happy. The last mission, she had received a minor injury and running from stampeding yaks had only aggravated it. BREW didn't enjoy her usual insta-heal abilities, but it wasn't that deep. This bandage wasn't necessary over her chest. She felt silly.]

[... Oh what was she doing? Observing Guests as they spar. Right right right.]

[wildest]

[At some point or another, Kotetsu ended up having to temporarily give up his watchful and fretful gaze over the two individuals he's "babysitting" during their training (because no matter how much he whines, he's just that much of a pushover sometimes), and ended up intending to wander off only for at least a minute. They're only getting a break, he can leave his daughter alone with his partner for a while, it's totally fine!

Thankfully though, once he notices a familiar fluffy white wolf nearby, he finds a perfectly acceptable distraction away from his worry and he rushes on over-- and then notices the bandages, which just makes him worry all over again, but for a different reason.]

Ammy! Where'd that come from? You okay? You shouldn't be out here if you're hurt!

[motherofthesun]

[Everything's totally fine! If something goes wrong, it'll be broken up and all injuries seen to... if there are any injuries.]

[Amaterasu barks at Kotetsu's arrival and doesn't seem to care about what he says. Her tail is still wagging and she's already given up on scratching the bandages off. Ugh, they're so annoying! Grin and bear it!]

[wildest]

[No injuries allowed, not a single scratch. Not even a misplaced hair on either of their heads.

Once Kotetsu's close enough to her and witnesses all that enthusiasm, he can't help but give a small smile as he crouches down, reaching out a hand to pat carefully at Amaterasu's head. She's injured but she certainly doesn't seem to mind such a thing.]

Don't care, huh? Well don't go pushing yourself too hard today. I'm sure you do enough that you can take it easy once in a while.

[motherofthesun]

[Nope nope nope!]

[She whines and nudges his hand. Yup, that's right. She's only the most easy-going with or without the slight injury.]

[open]

[wildest]

[What if we are more-so in the mood to protect asses from getting kicked, because that just so happens to be what Kotetsu is doing. He can't help it that his daughter and partner have actually decided to try training this morning, something that he'd gnash his teeth about if he didn't trust either of them so much.

...well he trusts one more than the other at the moment, just because hey, over-protective papa. If you're Barnaby or Kaede, feel free to try to get him to leave (good luck with that, HA), otherwise feel free to wonder about or even approach some old man sitting around and not sparring in a location clearly meant for sparring.]

[traust]

[Kaede grumbled at her father's insistence to join them along for training, it was like he would never latch off. But now that they were here she turned her attention towards her sparring partner Barnaby.]

So what should we get started with first?

[She took a fighting stance, well as best as she could. It looked like something mimicked from tv.]

[sentiments]

[Barnaby, however, was more than used to Kotetsu tagging along whether wanted or not. He just decided to focus on his current sparring partner, wondering what a good way would be to spar with her even though she's so small.

He just followed her lead, getting into a defense stance. So long as Kotetsu was there, it wouldn't do to even look like he could hurt Kaede, so he figured he could just have her go after him. That way, he could correct her form and see how new to fighting she might be.]

Alright, Kaede. You're on the offense now--let's see what you know so far. Try to hit me.

[traust]

Okay. [She held one of her fist with the other and tighten her expression. Then she charged at him, launching a fist right into his stomach area for a knockout.

But being a ten year old it doesn't pack a lot of punch.]

[sentiments]

[At least she had an idea of how to go about fighting. She was still young and a novice, but she was calculating. He blocked the punch with his forearm and lifted his hands again.]

That's a good one. But aim another one.

wow look who's late [open]

[makapapa]

[Spirit isn't really here to spar with anyone, what with his partner not really here with him, but he is here to keep fights from getting too out of control. And maybe give some pointers occasionally!]

[ninjainviolet]

[Sheena really doesn't need any pointers, so she's in the process of just going on her way when she spots him and jogs over.]

Spirit!

[makapapa]

[Like Spirit needs an excuse to talk to a pretty lady!]

Ah, hello beautiful! How are you on this fine morning?

[He's allowed just a little flirting, okay!!!]

[ninjainviolet]

[She blushes from the flirting, but manages to answer somewhat normally.]

I'm fine. How are you doing?

[As long as he doesn't get out of hand, she won't stop him.]

[makapapa]

I was fine, but now I'm considerably better with such lovely company.

[Hahaha.]

Here for training or just passing through?
