we're getting a lot more inmates lately, now with some of us getting double bookings. seems like a really good time to start combat training/review. not sure who all has had even basic training, but i'd like to share what i know since fighting is one of the things i do best, and even on a simple level, self defense would be good. to avoid what happened with mr velvet. before he left us.

anyway, i've found and prepped a room down the hall from the pool. last door on the right. matted floors and walls. MWF at 8pm for an hour or so, based on the ship clock. we'll start with hand-to-hand and shift to simple weapons later on. if you've never fought before and aren't interested, i can separately prepare a defense-only regimen, but i'd have to know beforehand, so let me know.

best to wear your regular clothing too. yes, it's physical activity, and you'll definitely break a sweat, but i doubt the inmates are going to wait for you before attacking if they get the chance.


oh and if you're already familiar with fighting, then i could use a good sparring partner (or two). reading is fine, but i need my exercise.

i'm sorry i was only teasing :(

i do want to support you
you know that

i don't think it's wasted at all
don't give up yet
give it some time !
i bet there will be plenty of takers

there's more than enough of us who wouldn't mind knowing we can handle someone trying to jump us for an atv for sure :)

[counterstep]

i don't mean any of that personally
i'm just explaining

part of the problem is there isn't even plenty of us left right now
it's more than just about takers, it's also morale
it's not helpful for people if they don't want to engage that environment
if it needs to be something else, i need to know what works better for all of us

[expectaspectre]

okay
i guess if it wasn't a public session i would be more inclined to join
the training my friends and i did made a lot of use of the things i can do
and there are things i would not feel comfortable showing some people yet
but if it was just you and maybe a couple other trusted people it would be different




...are you sure you're not mad at me because i really am sorry

> private

[counterstep]

okay
maybe something in your library then

( you know, the storage facility. )

and i'm sure
i don't get mad that easily lol
don't overthink it

[ ah, yes. The Hiding Spot. for Creeper Practice. ]

yes that would be okay :)
we'd have to find a time that Viktor isn't there though because he doesn't know me real well yet and i don't want to freak him out

okay i believe you
you have to tell me though if you ever do get mad at me because i want to do better
i can't improve if people don't tell me what's wrong
passive aggression doesn't work on me i am
VERY IMMUNE TO IT
