Video | UN: RedBlades

[comesaround]

[ As soon as the video turns on, Karma's already waving one hand towards the camera but otherwise seeming for all intents and purposes to be rather calm for the most part. ]

So. Guess you could say I have a question for you all.

[ He gestures back towards the window nearby; moreso towards the sky ]

Since the first of the month is coming up soon and i've heard these moons affect people a certain way, is there any advice that could be given for dealing with the effects that happen? I would quite appreciate it if any of you would be willing to share any details of your experiences so I know what to expect.

[ His smile falters a touch here, but nonetheless seems to remain in place as he let off a soft hum. Normally Karma wouldn't have asked so openly but maybe he was concerned about what was going to happen in a couple days and he did like being prepared.

Sure Cloud had told him a little but he needed a bit more to go off of. ]

Especially seeing as it would be my first time and it's likely to be unsettling in some form or another.

I suppose that would be a natural reaction to something like that happening, wouldn't it? Not exactly a common thing for most people to experience.

So... I can only assume that it's going to be a very... chaotic learning experience for those of us who got here recently, then. Depending on whatever moon blessing we fall under.

[zunge]

Yeah. I think she thought she was gonna 'turn' or whatever that means.

Chaotic is one word for it. Anyway if you want the short version of each moon, here.

[comesaround]

It could mean a lot of things, but I think I get it all the same.

I combed through that a little and what I found was rather informative. Certainly hope I'm not the Sanguis one or things are likely to end a little more bloody as I can get a bit violent without any outside influence.

[ He's not as bad as he used to be, but hey. Gotta be honest. ]

[zunge]

Guess you'll find out in a couple days. Sanguis is the one I know the least about. Something about snakes, wolves, fish and dragons? And violence? A lot of them hang out in Caihong during that moon to prey on anyone in the back alleys.

Only a bit violent?

[comesaround]

That's good to know. Helps me know what to look for and something to keep in mind if that ends up being the case with me, as well.

Well.. depends on your definition of that. I enjoy a good fight, don't mind beating the shit out of people who deserve it and have no problems threatening people if I have to.

[zunge]

That sure sounds familiar. What kind of fight?

[comesaround]

Usually hand-to-hand, close combat stuff, but I can fight with knives too if that's what people want.

[zunge]

I'll have to fight you one of these days.

[comesaround]

Sounds good to me. Could be a lot of fun. Especially if you're not the type to hold back any.

[zunge]

On the contrary, I've had people get pissed at me for refusing to hold back. Whiners.

[comesaround]

It's their loss. Asking someone to hold back in a fight also seems kind of insulting, if you ask me.

[zunge]

I'll admit there's such a thing as overkill, but otherwise yeah. Insulting.

[He's had um... some poor experiences as a kid wherein he hurt others too much and didn't understand why they were bothered by their injuries.]

[comesaround]

True. You have to find that point before it's overkill and reign yourself in, but otherwise not holding back is for the better. You get a better gauge of someone's true strength that way.

[ Does he want a chance to test himself even more and see this for himself against this guy? Most definitely. ]

[zunge]

Good way of putting it.

Let's hope you don't wuss out over an opponent who uses rough knuckles.

[comesaround]

Please. I've had the chance to go against not only a trained guy working for the government but a real assassin who could have crushed my head in if he'd gotten ahold of it. I'm not going to back out just because of something like that.

Good to know.

[comesaround]

Not really the word I'd use. Simply wanted to prove my point in saying I could handle what you'd brought up. Though if you had a problem with me, you could have just said it to me properly.

[ Sorry Noiz. He understood enough of that first part for it to make sense and is going to be just a bit of a smart-ass. ]

Sure is. :) Makes me quite look forwards to when we do get the chance to fight now.

[zunge]

Problem? Nah. Just poking at how you came off like a braggart. When I have problems with people it's much more obvious.

Your name.

[What is this ridiculousness, that he actually wants to know someone's name? Call the press.]

[comesaround]

I wasn't intending to come off that way at all. Just proud of some things I accomplished. Most people likely wouldn't have even believed me when I told them. Good to know it wasn't an actual problem with what I said, then.

Karma. You?

[zunge]

You here long enough, you learn people are usually being truthful about shit like that. All kinds of wacked out places they come from.

Noiz.

[comesaround]

Oh, good. So when I eventually share things about the weird shit I experienced back home, at least there's a better chance people will believe it because of that.

Got it. Can't say I'll forget that one anytime soon. Hit me up next time you want to burn off any energy with a fight, then.

[zunge]

A better chance, definitely.

I'll keep an eye out for you.
