So we got a buncha old fashioned guys who are used to swinging around swords all the time and stuff, right? It seems like it, I can't go 20 feet without tripping over someone that's never seen a minipad before. God, would it kill that rift stuff to start taking more people from the modern era?

Anyway, point is I need one of you guys — or, hell, a buncha you guys — to start teaching. I've got some students in mind, foremost being me, because the training room here doesn't cut it if you've never even seen a fucking sword before. And if anyone else sucks at medieval stuff too lemme know, we'll make it a whole party.

Achilles and Koltira, you guys are my top medieval guys that know what you're doing, don't you fucking ignore this.

Also, I've got this little super strength issue where I might break any weapons I try and use, so... there's that, too. Still working on that obstacle. Any ideas, lemme know.


[ ooc: here's a planning post for teaching stuff!! ]

[He's thrown enough by this conversation and the strange yet interesting turns it's taken that Meallan gives up, going with one of the first things to pop into his head.]

Sometimes it's a good way to stop someone from being your enemy, I've heard. Although I think that takes a little skill with convincing others.

[Alright that'll get a bit of a laugh from him, although he does shake his head at the question.]

I'm sorry to disappoint but no, it's not personal experience. Not that I haven't had to talk myself out of some tricky situations before but I've never had to go quite that far with it.

What about you? Is that... compatibility a concern for you?
