Nothing like a thaw to lift a guy's spirits. No more freezing my ass off in the cold. Almost makes me forget I've been on this island for nearly a year. Che, a whole year. That idiot boss must be missing me now, stuck with that other trash. They better not be slacking off

Heh, a match? Aren't you that guy who talks big about his sword skills?

I've been wanting to try something out, you up for it?

[novolumecontrol]

Nothing wrong with bragging about what you're good at. If you want to fight, I'm game. I have some stuff I want to try myself!

[kurokurowanwan]

Ha, if you have the confidence to brag and can back it up, I'm looking forward to this.

When and where?

[novolumecontrol]

The sooner the better. They don't really keep track of what I do on patrol, so I can go anytime. When do you get off work?

[thunder_striker]

Should you really be picking fights, Squalo?

[novolumecontrol]

Of course! I don't want my skills to get rusty!

[thunder_striker]

...I understand. Please do it somewhere safe and take care not to hurt yourself or anyone else.

The last thing we need right now is a patrolman hurting himself or someone else.

[novolumecontrol]

I'm not doing it as a patrolman, I'm doing it as a swordsman. The only people who will be getting hurt will be those who accepted the risks.

Unless someone mouths off. But then they deserve whatever they get.

[novolumecontrol]

Of course! Without me he's surrounded by trash and sycophants!

[novolumecontrol]

It doesn't matter how loud I am if I'm useful.

[a_severed_fate]

Um, excuse me, I don't believe we've met before, but I understand that you're a swordsman? Would it be alright if I observed one of your matches?

I think it might help me remember something more clearly.

[novolumecontrol]

Do whatever you want, just don't get in the way unless you want to join the fight.

[a_severed_fate]

I-I wouldn't dream of getting in the way...
You won't even notice I'm there, I promise. I won't say a word and I'll keep a safe distance away.

Thank you.

This better be worth it, Van. I don't like watching these sorts of fights, but if it'll confirm what I think is true, I guess it'll be fine.

[novolumecontrol]

Voi. You think you're a fighter too? They have weekly battles at the coliseum if that will help you learn faster. Then maybe we can have a match.
