[Just outside the centre of Camp, in a clear area, Captain Jack Harkness is playing with his sword.

N-no, an actual sword. He's practising a few moves with it; he's not awful, but he's not terribly good, either. It's been a while since he fenced. The sword itself glitters oddly... or maybe that's just the light

I'd say I'm better with a lance.

[captaincy]

On horseback, even?

[iscrewtothink]

More like a scythe.

[captaincy]

Nice. [proffers the hilt, blade-down.] Wanna try anyway?

[count_onme]

[Pinged]

Ah, I think you'll find your grip is slightly off.

[captaincy]

My grip's never off.

But if you wanted to show me how to hold it properly, I'd appreciated. Haven't used something like this in a while.

[count_onme]

[... Laughs a little at that]

Here. [Moves over so he can put his hand over Jack's] Just a fraction more to the right, like this, see? It's only a tiny detail, but it's easier on your wrist.

And that's perfectly understandable. They're not exactly the weapon of choice these days, are they?

[captaincy]

[shifts his grip. hey that is easier!]

Thanks. And it's not usually my weapon of choice, either, but I figured since I have it, might as well practice. You like swords?

[halfcocked]

[huuuuunnnh what is this]

[iscrewtothink]

[y halo what an interesting soul you have thar]

[halfcocked]

Holy fuck, your head!

[iscrewtothink]

Holy shit, your makeup!

[moerines]

[ooooh]

Oh, it's been awhile since I saw that!

[iscrewtothink]

Seen a sword?

[moerines]

Well . . . I guess so, yes. I was thinking of seeing someone practicing with a sword, but to be honest I don't see very many swords lying around here anyway.

[iscrewtothink]

This really doesn't seem to be a place that lends itself to swordplay really, does it?

[putyourheartin]

Wooooow!

[iscrewtothink]

It's rather shiny, isn't it?

[putyourheartin]

It is! Are you going to teach him?

[iscrewtothink]

Sadly, I know not a thing about swords!
