Um... I want to ask anybody who knows how to fight...

How do you pick a weapon? I mean... how do you know what suits you best? Do you try them until you figure it out, or do you let someone pick for you? And what if you-

...nevermind...

[Simon's going to be chilling out around the stairs at the entrance of community building 7, a sheathed sword ( Read more... )

my drill is my soul but weapons are usef, growing up is hard bro, swords or drills?, letter from the future

[ ...hm. What's the sound?

That THUD THUD THUD THUD sound?

Maybe...someone running down the stairs further inside? Running, jumping, hitting the floor with a great bit SPLAT before popping up again. Then it's THUD THUD THUD THUD THUD THUD-- ] SIMON!

[ LOOK OUT SIMON HE'S GOT A SWORD AND IT'S COMING TOWARD YOUR HEAD. ]

[Simon hears that stomping sound almost too late, head lifting and glancing back right as Kamina starts to roar his name. At once Simon yelps, diving off the stairs just in time to miss getting decapitated.

...

WHAT THE EVER-LOVING-]

Aniki! What are you doing!?

[ Action FOREVER ] ooh_kamina January 12 2011, 03:32:40 UTC

Not bad, Simon, not bad!

But it wasn't good, either!

[ HE'S TAKING ANOTHER SWING AT YOU, THAT'S WHAT. ]

[... Sometimes Sigmund honestly forgets that other people have trouble demanding asking for what they want as easily as he does.

Oops?]

If there is something else you would rather try... [Well, he'd have preferred Simon as him and not... everyone else in the village; but Simon would probably break under even a half-hearted scolding. He's a good kid. He'll let it slide.]

[...Belatedly Simon realizes he didn't think this through. At all. Probably should have filtered this or something :|]

No, no! It's okay! I'm sorry, I didn't mean to question you, I just...

[He's not sure yet, fff.]

[Sigh. How to explain this as gently and unscarily as possibly?]

I have learned to use many weapons. All of them have, in some way, made me a better swordsman. If you would like to try something else, perhaps I could teach you... or perhaps there is someone else.

I would not recommend you quit with the sword, even if you have no aptitude for it. It is good to learn many things, even those we are not good at.

[Simon's quiet for a bit, pondering his words carefully. Something new, huh... maybe he doesn't have to just give up on swordsmanship, either way.]

Um... can I ask a favour of you, instead...?

I didn't really pick mine on purpose... I just took a sword because everyone else uses one, so I thought it would be the most useful kind of weapon to have.

[Voice] dawndigger January 11 2011, 11:19:33 UTC

Swords are pretty popular, huh. [It just... feels weird for him to use one.]

[Voice] ratatosk_knight January 15 2011, 08:01:34 UTC

Do people use them all the time in your world too?

[Voice] dawndigger January 17 2011, 02:53:29 UTC

Not really. The weapon most people use isn't really a weapon- it's a Ganmen. A robot you can ride in.
