[The feed starts with nothing but the edge of a counter and a portion of a rather spartan apartment within view for a moment, before somebody wearing a skull and crossbones shirt and a neck charm that can't quite be identified from this distance stepped in. A wooden chair was set down and turned backward and the individual had a seat, the rest of

[Check out this guy. He'll stare right back, jaw set, until the silence was broken.]

Worth a shot.

Tch, that'd be pointless. You throw 'em and have to go get 'em again. Leaves you wide open!

Least with a chair you can hang on to it while you put a dent in somethin'.

You're good with hand-to-hand fighting? Not many seem to be around here.

[Video]

[topgun_textiles]

Yeah, I noticed that, too. They got me usin' some kinda bamboo stick or a wooden sword mostly... not my thing.

[heart_rhythm]

[Now that's more like it. She chuckles a little]

And I was beginning to think everyone was just looking for swords here.

[Video]

[topgun_textiles]

I was growin' tired of all the weapons-based practice anyway!

You lookin' for a spar partner?

[He... wasn't sure if he was going to immediately get comfy sparring against a girl, but the kid's got to learn where and when to be a gentleman somehow.]

Hiii Kanji-san! I'm Orihime, it's nice to meet you. I'm a meister as well.

[She taps her chin thoughtfully.]

Hmmmmm two weapons at once? I don't think so. But it may be something to try!

[Video]

[topgun_textiles]

You too. Gonna see how it goes once I figure out this resonance stuff.

[He scratched his head.]

...How's a Meister figure out their ability?

[Video]

[healinghime]

[Orihime scratches the back her head as well, smiling sheepishly.]

eh heeehhh...I had to practice and concentrate on my ability.

There is a training group that is always out! It's very helpful.

[topgun_textiles]

A'right, I'll give that a shot. Thanks.

The most recent lesson at Shibusen was about resonance, and they brought up two weapons! You must resonate with them both, and that is what is hard, because there must be balance and trust and no tension, but challenges can be good!

Also, hello, Kanji! I am Maito Gai!

[He listened Gai-sensei, honest, but he's busy staring at the screen for a good minute or two before he makes his reply.]

...You're always this perky, aren't you?

[Video]

[spandexisyouth]

I am! It is healthy to be this perky, and I am a great believer in good health!

[Video]

[topgun_textiles]

...I shoulda known.

I'm gonna stick to fruit smoothies or a banana if I wanna keep healthy, though, thanks.

[A pause, and he furrowed a brow.]

Wait, lessons? When're those held again?

[Doesn't know shit about partner things so just gonna address something different.]

You fight with furniture? That's certainly creative.

[Video]

[topgun_textiles]

Yup. Used a folding chair and a school desk on a couple occasions. Gotta use whatever's on hand sometimes, y'know?

[bellcaptain]

Oh, I do know. And sometimes the unexpected can really muddle your enemies and give you an advantage!

[topgun_textiles]

Exactly! For all the crap they cause, it's nice to see the looks on their faces as they try to work out why exactly this dude's comin' up with a chair slung over the shoulder.
