Morning Training Log

Characters: Everyone!
Location: Training Ground, Shibusen
Rating: PG-13 for violence of the training sort
Time: 6am to 9am
Description: Training takes place every morning in the park to prepare the guests of the city for the ongoing war. It's handwaved most days, but approximately once a month this gets played out in a log. This log takes place on July 18th, so EXPECT PLOT-RELATED EXTRAS THIS TIME AROUND!

Official areas:

Hug Brigade: A begrudgingly still opened squad dedicated to hugs of encouragement. Thank Lee for this! Staffed by Lee and his brigadiers!

As this is being held during the Meister/Weapon swap event, we expect quite a bit of training going on for all the characters finding themselves dancing to a different beat than usual. There is also a great deal of extra canon items/creatures/things that have been brought in by BREW that can potentially be played with during this time and for that we have a list for you all to peruse of objects/creatures/things that could be found in or around training. However, some things may have already been found/destroyed/moved since their first appearance when the plot began so that may need to be taken into consideration for a few things in the list. It should also be noted that the 19th is when the dinosaur swallows BREW, so no need to worry about that causing your characters to lose focus any more than what all of these things will do!

And of course, as always, feel free to make your own threads!

[General or more specific questions, whatever you want, all will be answered to the utmost ability.]

[Eggs, bacon, and pancakes, oh my~]

[Learn how to aim a decent punch, or perhaps just how to win a fight.]

[Try to keep it clean, please! And if you can't, just don't get caught.]

[Takes a bit more oomph than just clicking your heels together, but it's worth the challenge!]

[For those who are still in the dark as to their nature here in Death City.]

[Most people would rather work by themselves, so how about polishing up those people skills a bit here in training?]

[Even if you can't swing a sword, there's plenty else to be tried...]

[The target seems small from over here, but with a little practice it won't seem that far for long.]

[Like finding a Weapon's ability, there is no magic miracle to this; just some good old-fashioned hard work will get you there.]

[Find your better half~]

[True care comes with a confident bedside manner~]

[Help defend Death City with some other proactive guests!]

[A younger group dedicated to detective work and taking care of Bad Guys.]

[Come into some comfort with a hug, a smile, or a kind word!]

[A]

[If Meenah looks a little more like a cheery barracuda than normal today, it's because the Condesce's cake stand is gone, and that means either her alternate self is gone, or she's in no fit state to be at morning training. Either possibility pleases her immensely, and Meenah can be found cackling quietly to herself over it, water bottle in hand as always, in between breaks from sparring.]

[B]

[She's poking at something near the edge of the training area with the end of a training spear, crouched down and leaning forward, eyes narrowed.

It's a Cactuar, though she doesn't know that, and it doesn't much appreciate her poking it. In fact, it actually only allows her one more poke before suddenly jerking forward, needles flying at her. Luckily, Meenah's reflexes make it so she only takes a few needles in the arm and hair as she ducks and rolls out of the way, flinging the water bottle she'd been holding at the Cactuar in an attempt to distract it. The bottle is pierced by some of the needles, and soaked, the Cactuar seizes up and falls backward...

But the damage is already done, and anyone behind Meenah may or may not have caught the brunt of a round of 1000 Needles.]

...little son of a beach!

[And yep. She's back to poking it.

Coddammit Meenah.]

[ Chika sighed, looking around the training area as she did a couple of stretches. She... wasn't really looking forward to this training session, but she knew that if she was really going to be able to do things here, she needed to get used to being a weapon.

But after months of being a meister having to learn everything from scratch just sucked. But she figured that maybe she had a hang of thing, so here she went. She closed her eyes, concentrating on being a digivice. Focusing on it...

And soon enough, she was the square shaped device, and plopping down on the grass. Good. Now to change back. Think of herself. Herself. Herself.

It took a few more moments, almost a minute, but she did eventually make it back into human form. Right in time for someone to be walking over her... and for both of them to tumble to the ground because holy crap that wasn't really something you wanted to happen when you were changing forms.]

Watch where you're going next time!

[The completely absurd swapping business that's been going on hasn't stopped Mondo from doing his usual routine at morning training. Having not really noticed his own departure and re-arrival, however, he's not entirely sure if he'd been included in the mass switch, however. Meaning he hasn't managed to figure out just how he's supposed to go about turning into a weapon, if that's even what he should be doing now at all. The whole thing is frustrating, really, but what better way to alleviate frustration than a good run around the training site. ~~A good spar would be even better, though!~~]

[Today, you'll find Sasha up in his favorite park tree, making a lounge chair out of the tree's trunk and one of its thicker branches. Someone as short as he would have found it impossible to climb up the tree, what with its lack of low-hanging branches...but he didn't exactly get up here by conventional means.

Yes, Sasha was in a terribly good mood. He'd taken to his new Weapon form with unbridled excitement, mastering the process of switching in and out of it (and the shape he takes while in it) practically overnight. It's a lot like what he does at home, almost too much like it, and he's not knocking that. 'Cause he likes to do that.

He's doing what he always does--watching others interact at Morning Training, this time with a cheap popsicle in his mouth, in the relative comfort of shade.]

[Hiro is... in a bit of an odd state. He kind of wants to play around with this whole "hey I can turn into a cell phone" thing, but then again, he doesn't want to get distracted from training as he usually does, either. He's probably going to be taking a break somewhere, making the phone screen disappear and reappear on his hand just for kicks.]
