111. Thirty-five

[corrinesbell]

It's getting pretty cold out. I guess it's the right time of year for it. ...I showed up in Luceti during weather like this. [almost three years ago.]

Anybody up for some sparring? Just hand-to-hand, no magic or anything. [Raine or Regal will probably yell at her about that...]

[[ooc: Looking for some sparring fun~ Also I can't believe I'm a month away from three whole years in Luceti. What is this madness.

Zelos' thread will be chronologically last.]]

Man, what is it with you and sparring, don't you ever find other ways to relax a little less dangerously?

[corrinesbell]

I'm not trying to relax. I don't wanna get rusty.

[pimpinwings.livejournal.com]

You look rather polished to me, hon.

[corrinesbell]

I meant fighting you idiot.

[pimpinwings.livejournal.com]

Hey, I watched a couple of those for a bit, you seemed fine to me.

[hotheadedidiot]

A spar, huh? I'm always game for one of those!

[corrinesbell]

You'd have to ditch the sword.

[hotheadedidiot]

H-hey! I know what hand-to-hand means!

[corrinesbell]

And I know how sneaky some people can be.

[hotheadedidiot]

I'm not like that.

[Voice]

[trueknight]

Hand-to-hand only, huh?

[... Why the hell not. He hasn't done hand-to-hand in ages.]

... Yeah, I'm up for it.

[Voice]

[corrinesbell]

[ooooh, an unexpected one]

You got it. Name a good time.

[redhairedknight.livejournal.com]

Not really what I'm used to, but sure, why not?

Where do you want to meet?

[corrinesbell]

I wanna go somewhere other than the barracks. How about by the small lake?

[redhairedknight.livejournal.com]

Sounds good. Are you ready to do this now, then?

[corrinesbell]

Sure. Gimme about an hour? I've gotta finish up something here.

[redhairedknight.livejournal.com]

Fine with me.

[And, in about an hour, Erza's waiting at the lake in question dressed in a martial arts gi (coincidentally resembling the usual outfit of Ryu from Street Fighter (http://streetfighter.wikia.com/wiki/File:Ryu-SSF2TR-art.gif) - she figures that, even if it's not a method of fighting that she's used to, she might as well dress for the part) - she's nothing if not prompt.]

[throwshammers.livejournal.com]

Hand to hand...?

[Thinks about this.] I'd probably be awful at that. I'm sorry, Sheena.

[corrinesbell]

It's okay, Colette. It's just not your style.

[throwshammers.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I'm too clumsy to fight like that. [Just try to imagine that, Sheena.]

[corrinesbell]

The way you fight is fine.

... how did I not realize this was a Sheena post, fail self

[lezareno_prez]

Are you sure you're feeling up to sparring already, Sheena?

Your Regal senses need a tune-up

[corrinesbell]

...What're you talking about?

[Okay, who told?]

They do, sob

[lezareno_prez]

[What, you think Regal doesn't keep tabs on all of his buddies here, Sheena? He is Papa Bear.]

I was simply wondering how you were feeling right now.

[corrinesbell]

Fine. Why wouldn't I be?

[just tell her that you know and spare her the deception]
