§ 046.

[SOMEONE IS IN THE DANGER ROOM. but it's all boring and room-like right now. she's just sitting in the middle of the floor... surrounded by all kinds of weapons! not quite that many, but you get the idea. they're all in neat piles around her, and she looks so happy.]

School is starting. I'm sure my combat students, both new and returning, are just as excited for class as I am. I expect all of you to be in at least a passable physical condition. If you are not, I will make you so.

[she pauses, and then rifles around the weapons until she finds a book. she holds it up; the cover is covered with latin text.]

Also, Latin will be just as intensive as last year. I look forward to seeing all of you.

Uh. I am...signed up for your combat class, it looks like... I don't know if it was Kanaya or Nepeta, but, uhhh, what does "passable physical condition" mean?

Do I need to be excused because of being dead?

[OH NO IS SHE MAD SHE SOUNDS MAD AND THAT QUESTION SHOULD BE EASY TO ANSWER BUT IT ISN'T FOR HIM BECAUSE HE IS LAME AT EVERYTHING OH SHIT!]

I, uh...I don't know? I haven't, basically, been able to run in sweeps. I, uh... I only got my legs back after dying.

You aren't the first.

[precalculate.livejournal.com]

Maybe not, but I've got this funny notion that I'm the best.

Do you have a favorite?

And now I'm even happier that I'm not going to Xavier's.

[Gives Scatty the, "are you kidding me?" look.]

You should be glad, too. I don't think you want me trying to learn Latin, or use all the sharp implements you have up on that there wall. Because that right there? That's asking for a trip to the ER.

[OH MY GOD WEAPONS - hi he's a geek for weapons and guns, hello]

... wait-what. There are combat lessons around this place?

[symmachy]

[YAAAAY

also is this a kindred spirit? she hopes so]

Yes. Both at the Institute and my own, personal dojo.

[fuelblade.livejournal.com]

The Institute? And what kind of classes? That's a whole arsenal you've got in there.
