[He has no idea what information is relevant, but he starts talking anyway.]

It was during the madness sales, at a mall in Oregon. Things were pretty hectic there, but my weapon was really looking out for me. The Kishin egg was... well, it wasn't what I expected? But I guess I didn't really know what to expect, either.

[16hitmagnum.livejournal.com]

[ And she completely believes him. ]

Eh! What kind of technique? Show me! Show me!

[usedforcepalm.livejournal.com]

[A full hour? It seems odd to Hanabi, but ninjas aren't taught about things like that. They're taught not to eat large breakfasts so they can be on the move almost immediately after eating if necessary.]

Yes.

[She holds up her Watch-issued shuriken first.]

These are only for throwing. But these...

[She holds up the kunai]

These can be used for throwing at an enemy or for close combat.

[usedforcepalm.livejournal.com]

[Hanabi is sincerely confused by the encouragement. Her father would never have congratulated her for aim like that.]

But I didn't even hit somewhere that would kill the target...

[heart-rhythm.livejournal.com]

[She waves a hand, frustrated]

Look, I'm not here to argue about technique. I just don't like the thought of you going after people here just because they aren't human.

[mr-fancy-car.livejournal.com]

How did you dispatch the kishin egg? [Any information might help, really.]

[ghostofaqueen.livejournal.com]

[She expected the dodge, drawing her legs in quickly when it was apparent that the attack was defeated. Her hands slammed against Selendis' swinging bony elbow. Her fingers gripped the strong arm, pushing her body down to pass underneath the elbow.

Her grip remained though, and she twisted her body back around regardless of how much her arms were jarred from their opposite momentum. She released her grip when she was swinging in the same direction as Selendis was face, moving to scramble up the Protoss's back. If only Selendis would cooperate and be defeated...]

[calledloony.livejournal.com]

I thought I should find my power first... and most people I know here are Meisters as well.

[jerkisjerk.livejournal.com]

[Oh sorry, is that bothering you? Ryuuji doesn't feel the slightest bit sorry about that and it shows.]

People? [He smirks.] I wouldn't go after people. All I was doing was cleaning up some rubbish that was loitering around on the street.

[commandorking.livejournal.com]

So? Hitting to kill is easy. You got him at a good place that would keep them from fighting back much yet ensures that they could be questioned later on. It was a very good shot for a first try.

[Unlike some ninjas Aion believes in camaraderie and gentle but firm teaching while training.] Try and relax your shoulders a bit more for the next one.

[justiceisdue.livejournal.com]

[There was no way Selendis was going to cooperate. Especially not with the ghost climbing up her back like she was a little Kwah-Kai. She made no attempt to reach around and grab her, knowing Kerrigan would find a way to avoid her grasp.

Instead Selendis ducked down into a roll, using her hands and elbows to push herself and not completely crush Kerrigan at the same time. She'd shake her off before she even got a good grip on her.]

[ghostofaqueen.livejournal.com]

[Scrambling up a Protoss was more difficult then she last remembered, but then again, she had been busy slicing their nerve cords at the time. That was foul play here, and it was simply sparring not actually for damage. So she scrambled...

and then the world began to twist, and she shoved off hard, flipping in the air to keep an eye on the rolling Protoss. She landed nearby and huffed noisily before circling around to look for new weakness in the stance.]

[justiceisdue.livejournal.com]

[Selendis felt her push off, glad for it but well aware she'd just have to prepare for something else. The ghost was resourceful, she had to give her that. She was upright and back on her feet in an instant, crouched down and facing off against Kerrigan.

She watched Kerrigan circle for a moment, then darted forward, making a wide swipe with her arm to knock her back.]

[ghostofaqueen.livejournal.com]

[Her green eyes narrowed as Selendis closed in the distance between them. It was something like watching a Goliath rampage across a short distance minus the guns and replacing those with large grasping hands. Kerrigan suddenly remember why she hated fighting the Protoss.

Still, she drove herself to the side at the last minute, rolling across the grass and rising quickly to her feet. How did she kick out the knees on creatures where they face backwards without her psychic powers as a boost?] Hmpt, how annoying.

[jazz-enpsyche.livejournal.com]

[No! Not fun! Because Jazz isn't really used to failing. So can we go back to the being cold? Because that didn't end with her butt first in the snow and wanting to flop back into it.]

I keep waiting for you to jump over me.

[She stands up and dusts the snow off her cloths.]

It is not normal to want a thermos to fight with. That's just weird.

[mr-fancy-car.livejournal.com]

[A nod.]

While I agree that it's better to resonate with a Weapon with knowledge of one's Meister ability, some Meisters insist on attempting resonance anyway. It is also possible to discover it while resonating.

Have you used magic in combat?

[strengthtohelp.livejournal.com]

Try concentrating on it. If we're feeling it at the same time, something must be working.

[boredallready]

[Lloyd blocks with both blades this time, taking note that he seems to be upping his effort. He follows suit, swiping with one blade quickly followed by the other on the other side. As he's aiming it would graze him at worst (barring an accident) but he's interested to see his reaction time.]

[boredallready]

Not really. The only time I could tell something was different was when those witches took me over two months ago... I think that was because of whatever that snake thing was though.

[chaos-squirrel.livejournal.com]

All right, here we go.



Do you feel any different yet?

[chaos-squirrel.livejournal.com]

[heart-rhythm.livejournal.com]

[She turns away from him, not liking that he's totally unphased by this]

I hope something here can manage to sway your thoughts. If not, you're just detrimental to this city.

[jerkisjerk.livejournal.com]

Maybe, maybe not. I have my priorities that I'm working with. I'm not enough of an idiot to expect to be liked for them.

aaaaand then i dropped the ball for a week

[key-0f-light.livejournal.com]

[Sora wasn't entirely sure if he believed Riku or not - he felt the fact should be proven with a demonstration, at the very least, but since Takuto was here he didn't stop to argue. Rather, he turned to the other boy and deftly threw the keyblade in his direction, then closed his eyes to concentrate on his own transformation.]

Heads up.

[He grinned for a split second before he fully transformed himself.]

[justiceisdue.livejournal.com]

[She didn't pursue as Kerrigan dove out of the way, instead setting her feet and staying low to the ground. Ready to move, and looking every bit as dangerous as a feral animal. She tilted her head to the side when Kerrigan spoke.]

Your meaning?
