[Aaron refuses to look at the camera. Instead he awkwardly plays with the sleeve of the tattered jacket he's recently acquired and ducks his head.]

I was ho-hoping somebody could give- could give me a job... I-I don't have any special ski-skills or anything but I-I'd work hard. [He lifts his eyes briefly to the camera and offers a hint of a smile. ( Read more... )

[Sighs.]

There's a dojo in the city. Someone there will work with you on strength training and defending yourself, if you put forth the effort.

What's your name?

Voice thebutcherboy February 23 2010, 02:04:42 UTC

I-I'm Aaron Stampler... I d-don't know if I'd be any good- any good at training... Always been told I have t-two left- left feet, sir...

Aaron? [Oh, the bitter irony. He knew an Aaron in World's End, knew him rather well. Now, he can hear the similarities.]

Giving up before you try?

Voice thebutcherboy February 23 2010, 02:15:36 UTC

No! N-no, sir, I-I'm just wa-warning you is all...

You're going in with a defeatist attitude, and it's not going to get you anywhere.

Do you want to learn how to take care of yourself, or do you want to be a weakling for the rest of your life because of what someone else told you?

Voice | This is like the boot camp he never went to! thebutcherboy February 23 2010, 02:22:04 UTC

Y-yes... N-no! I d-don't want to be a- be a weakling, sir! I jus- I was just- I- I was just t-telling you.

Video | This will be a boot camp he never wanted. XD earned_my_eyes February 23 2010, 19:33:30 UTC

Hn. [The camera clicks on and swings to a wooden set up with buckets on either side. Oh, yes, we'll see how good your balance is, won't we? Especially after you figure out that one of the buckets has a slight hole in it, enough to make a significangt difference in weight distribution over time.]

There are six barrels here that need to be filled with water each morning. It needs to be water from the dock, not any wells or from any other homes in the area. Don't think to cheat; we'll know.

It need to be done by dawn tomorrow. If you're up to the challenge, that is.

Video | That's true. Aaron isn't ninja enough for Sasuke's boot camp XD thebutcherboy February 25 2010, 23:34:19 UTC

[Aaron's eyes widen drastically as he takes in the barrels.]

I d-don't know if--

I-I'll try...

[He smiles a little to himself. Just a hint.]

If you want it bad enough, you'll do it.
