[TEXT] | [OPEN] | Temple’s First Prismagram Post | DATE: March 27, 2019

[sometimespawnskillkings]

[Temple’s really nervous about posting this. But Taako said that, if Temple wants to keep hanging around him, he has to learn to fight. Sooooo...]

I’m wondering... is there anyone around here who would be willing to teach me how to fight?

I know some of the basics but not much and I’m not very good at it. But I want to get better.

So next time the vines come or some other danger appears, I can help more. And save more people.

[He signs the post, at the end, with:]

Temple, of the Blues and Reds

[And then he waits and hopes that someone will respond to him.]

[spah]

What sorta fighting?

[sometimespawnskillkings]

What sort?

[Temple hadn’t thought that far, to be honest.]

I’m not sure, really. I know I can’t use magic so not that kind of fighting. But I don’t know what all the other sorts are, or which of them would be best for me.

[spah]

... Well. I've throw a few spells around from time to time, but I was thinking somethin' along the lines of good 'ol fashioned fists.

[He chuckles.]

I can throw a punch and shoot a gun. That somethin' you're lookin' for?

[sometimespawnskillkings]

Yeah, either of those would work.

[Temple laughs nervously.]

I don’t know if I’d be any good at either but they are both things I am theoretically capable of.

[spah]

Do you "theoretically" got somethin' to shoot with?

[sometimespawnskillkings]

... no.

[He had one before but he was deprived of it when he got put in jail. After all, letting prisoners have deadly weapons is just dumb, even if they completely suck at using them.]

[spah]

Welp. Either get'cherself somethin', or we can use mine. You up in the Level 2's?

[sometimespawnskillkings]

Yeah, I am.

I think we all are, aren’t we?

[spah]

Not everybody. Anyway, my name's Dell. I'm up in 211. You ever feel like learnin' how to shoot, gimme a ring. Think I saw a range around, before the vine thing happened.

[sometimespawnskillkings]

Thanks.

And I will.

If you're looking for hand-to-hand or firearms training I might be able to assist.

[sometimespawnskillkings]

Yeah, I’d be up for either or both of those.

Do have any prior experience? If not, it's fine, but if we can skip some basics we'll save time.

[sometimespawnskillkings]

Yeah. I have some.

[Well, more than ‘some’ but he doesn’t want to raise her expectations too high.]

[clickreload]

I have what amounts to military training. If there is something we can use as a firing range or sparring space...I would be willing to see what you know, and if I can help.

[sometimespawnskillkings]

Thanks.

I’d really appreciate that.

[Ed's never taught anyone before, but...]

I might be able to help you out. When you say 'basics,' do you mean hand-to-hand or do you use a weapon?

Re: Text

[sometimespawnskillkings]

Honestly, either would work.

What I use most of the time is a gun but I’m not very good at using it.

Though I’m a little bit better with regular guns than with sniper rifles.

[He neglects to mention exactly how bad he is at using the sniper rifle.]

[milkisgross]

I'm not a fan of firearms, so you'll have to find someone else to help you with that. I'm proficient in hand-to-hand, though I can also use swords and spears if you want to try it out.

[sometimespawnskillkings]

Hand-to-hand’s fine.

And yeah, I want to try out swords and spears. Maybe they’ll suit me better than firearms do.

[milkisgross]

Sure. I'm not sure where we can go for all of this, but the city's definitely big enough. I'm sure we'll find some place.

[OoC: If you wanna play this out, just let me know. I will not mind setting up a log!]

[sometimespawnskillkings]

I have no idea either, honestly.

But yeah, there probably is somewhere we can do it.

[OOC: Yeah, a log would be good. (Though, to be honest, I mostly want one so Temple can be shocked when he discovers that Edward is a teenager because I think that would be funny.)]

[milkisgross]

Let's meet outside the apartments then.

[Ed gives Temple a description for his building's location.]

[OoC: Sweet! I'll go ahead and start writing up the log.]
