[Twenty-first] Moonrise: Video ⇥ Sword (Backdated to Tuesday)

[beforemoonfall]

[When the feed flickers to life, a certain samurai is sitting in the room he shares with his boyfriends (when they're here). He seems a bit beat up--cat scratches all over his face.]

Okay, I'm sick of the "get the cat out of the tree" routine. I need help learning how to use this damn sword.

At least you get to do stuff that's actually... Y'know. Exciting.

[Because climbing trees after cats sounds so much better than digging up lost jewelry in the lake.]

[beforemoonfall]

I'm probably lucky I haven't been killed.

[He'll pause, then sigh.]

...How are you, by the way?

[ninthserenade]

What's the worst a cat could do, dude?

Eh, the usual. It gets kinda lonely over here but I'm managing.

[beforemoonfall]

I haven't just been doing the cat thing. I've been doing some quests that require me to go in danger zones, and this sword works completely differently from Manumit.

...Want me to come visit?

hnn I need to get AC for him

[six_feelings]

What, don't know how to use a fuckin' sword?

It's okay~ They need to meet anyway.

[beforemoonfall]

No. I use a completely different weapon most of the time.

sob yes

[six_feelings]

It's called adapting, runt. Learn it.

[beforemoonfall]

Geez, thanks for the tip. Sorry my usual weapon weighs about three times this.

Don't think I can help you too much there, kiddo. Swords aren't exactly my forté. I'm not opposed to helping you practice, though--you should see my swanky new throwing knives.

Cat? Ohhhh, you save cats?
