*OOC: Please make sure that your character has either taken notice via the journals of
Smoke's written invitation, unless your character is the type to go wandering around Melee Island at these hours :)
One thread per sparring match, please! Just reply to which time of day your character arrives~ Either early in the morning or in the afternoon! Please remember to tag your character in as well!

Smoke was happy, but not suicidal. The only time he'd been to Crystala was with three other powerful people with him, and even then he'd come out the other side pretty scuffed up. So, he worked in the dojo while waiting for anybody to show up, and wrote in the journals between sets.
He didn't really like going up against the Dojo Dummies, but it was a hell of a lot better than getting his ass handed to him on Crystala. Plus, he'd been working really hard while stuck in that other body to get accustomed to right-handed work, or at the very least maneuvers that benefited from swapping hands. Now was his chance to put all of that practice use with his real weapon - which was very different than just a staff.
And Smoke missed a lot of times during this first practice session, but that wasn't the point. The point was he was enjoying himself again, in a place of fond memories - bittersweet, but sweet all the same. And when someone else showed up, he'd go back to primarily using his left hand, because that's when the real fun would begin.
