You're new, right?

[She's not sure how they'll train her and the nerves are making her irritable.]
So what am I doing here?

[[Fakir isn't a fan of the idea of kids participating in the war, but he knows it would be stupid to leave them unable to defend themselves, given how vulnerable Death City has proven to be. And he's completely ready to believe this girl would go down easy.]]
Any experience?

You could say that Bucko.
[Sigh.]
I have a history of...getting into fights with people bigger than me...or smaller than me...my doctor says I have anger issues. Either way I can throw a punch and make it matter.

Don't call me that.
[[This response makes him blink. He hadn't been under the impression that young girls got into fist fights. He looks her over again, sizing her up.]]
Show me what you can do.

Show you?
[Shrug]
Okay boss, tell me what you want me to hit and I'll whack it!

[She's relieved she's not going to have to hit someone in the face or anything, she's still uncomfortable but training means it's good to hit someone. Slowing her breathing down she curls her hand into a fist making sure her thumb is safely outside of her fingers and draws her arm back. Drawing back she puts as much of her strength as she can into hitting his hand.]

Again, he raises an eyebrow.]]
... Not bad. What else can you do?

Other than punching not a lot...[she pauses slightly disheartened and then brightens] I have a pretty good aim! I used to aim spit balls at people, never missed.
I suppose in a fight though that's not very useful. [She wishes now she'd taken up martial arts or something, but it never came up and she didn't get the chance.] I played a lot of sports so I guess I'm in good shape...I just need to be shown what to do and I'll do it.

If your aim's good, you should see if they'll let you on the shooting range.
[[It wasn't something he'd be much good at teaching, given his lack of experience. He'd never seen a gun before arriving in Death City, and didn't know a lot about archery.]]
Anyway, can you defend yourself?

[Helga pauses to consider the comment, she's never really been attacked, there have been a few childhood incidents but honestly...she isn't sure.]
I don't know...[Helga rubs the back of her neck awkwardly] I was more of a hit first ask questions later kinda girl...sorry.

No one ever tried to hit you back?
