... Hypothetically speaking, if someone were to look into finding somewhere to y'know. Spar. Train. Keep the rust off their fighting skills in case we get something worse than a sewer full of giant vines trying to swat us like flies for the hell of it. That kind of thing. Is there anywhere around here that would fit that kind of criteria?

What're the chances of half of those Knights they've got posted around here sticking their noses where they aren't wanted? Most of the Knightly types I've come across aren't the type to just nod and let a bunch of people waving weapons around get on with their day without throwing a tantrum.

And if that's the case and the chances are high... whereabouts here are they least likely to go snooping?

Or take the longest to get to. I'm not picky.

[ Hypothetically speaking, of course. ]

Not really, that's just your imagination.

If you think I'm bad then you should check out people from my world. They're even worse.

[genrouzan]

That's really inspiring me to go do that, yeah.

[catchthis]

You can try it if you're feeling lonely.

Everyone's got those days.

[genrouzan]

I think I'd have to be very lonely, if they're like the preview I'm getting.

[catchthis]

When it reaches that point you know what to do.

I think it might be entertaining to see you either way. You're like a fart in the wind.

[genrouzan]

You've got a real way with words. Ever think about being a poet?

[catchthis]

Nope, not a chance. I'm no shakespeare.

Leave the boring poetry to people who give a shit about literature. That crap makes me shed a single tear from how dry it is.

Don't tell me you like it...

[genrouzan]

I've never thought about whether I like poetry or not. I'm not exactly a bookworm.

[ It'd be something Estelle loves. He'd bet any money on it. ]

Sounds like you have though.

[catchthis]

Ugh, you aren't wrong. I thought about it before yeah.

I'm a knight and I was stationed near a cathedral. All I ever heard was boring ass literature. They fully expected me to read that bs, but I'm not having it.

Hey I could hook you up with some sweet lectures written by dudes who have no idea what they're saying.

[genrouzan]

That sounds like a lot of intellectual, really. But hey, if I'm having trouble sleeping, maybe I'll take you up on that.

[catchthis]

They might just keep you awake instead. It's so annoying to listen to.

No way you can nap while hearing to a disgusting sermon. Believe me, I've tried.

[genrouzan]

I dunno, the more droning it is the easier it is to doze of to I think. Kinda like a soothing lullaby.

[catchthis]

That's some messed up lullaby. What kind of things did they put you asleep with as a kid?

Do you remember?

[genrouzan]

I just slept. What, did you have someone holding you hand until you dozed off or something?

But if someone's talking too much and you're trying to stay awake, doesn't it just make it harder to stay awake?

[catchthis]

UH, no. Do I look like a mommy's boy?

Screw that.

I guess it depends on the person. Everyone's gonna have a different reaction to that sorta thing.

[genrouzan]

Didn't realise there was a look to it. How do I know it doesn't come with white hair in a floppy style?

Maybe. As long as you sleep, then it's good.
