Teaching

[greyerrant]

Who: The Silent wolf and you (open)
Where: Capricorn ward
Summary: Garviel teaches people how to fight with guns, blades, hand to hand, and everything but silly personas pretty much.
Warnings: Manliness, possible combat, a lot of talking.
[Loken waits, a few spare blades and a few longarms and pistols in a fairly careless-looking pile beside him, holding his chainsword two-handed, almost challenging anyone to approach him and learn. He is 8 feet tall, and an imposing figure at the edge of the plains, just before the forest.]

[]The first thing Santa realises when he lays eyes on Loken is that he is massive. Santa isn't exactly a shrimp or anything but he's no Space Marine sized monster.

He was just out exploring and having a look around one of the districts he hadn't been to but, after seeing Loken standing there, he figures he should at least say hey.

Though all of those weapons are a little scary so he does approach with a tiny bit of caution.]

Yo, Cerberus, all these weapons yours?

[demifemme]

A girl in a green dress and with lines of her cheeks approaches, seemingly without fear, even if she must look way up at Garviel, being quite short by space marine standards.

"Hi."

[greyerrant]

"Greetings. Are you here to learn?"

He stares down at her, weighing her stance and movements already.

[greyerrant]

"They are now."

As to where he got them, well, there may be a few less gangsters in the Sagittarius sector now.

"Oh, hey. You must be Mr. Cynic," says the little slip of a 13-year old boy. In a tunic. With a golden laurel head wreath. And wings.

And a bow.

The Space Marine looks down. He is carrying a http://th06.deviantart.net/fs70/PRE/f/2011/177/3/0/warhammer_umbra_bolter_by_clairegrube-d3k2cfa.png
. It looks like it could blow someone's head clean off.

"Yes."

[abmoemination]

Whoa, are those real? [ Suddenly there's a short girl with a few strands of hair much taller than herself nearby. ] It's almost as though they're out of a RPG!

[greyerrant]

Those what? [ He rumbles, clearly put off by the generality of the query. ]

[gforceinmyfaaaace]

Pit gives the gun a good look-over.

"Interesting weapon you got there. Can it take out these monsters?"

[abmoemination]

That, for starter's! [ Pointing right at his chainsword. ] I know something I'd like to chain up in my bed chambers [ hee ] !

[greyerrant]

All of my weapons are fully operational. [ He doesn't quite know what to say about the bedchambers. ]

[greyerrant]

"Yes." It would appear Loken is as talkative as always, clearly considering the bolter sufficient for the task at hand. Well, it is capable of punching through tank armor, so it isn't like he is wrong.

[gforceinmyfaaaace]

"Don't talk much, do you?" he says with a laugh. "Won't do you much good if you're dead set on teaching people how to fight."

[abmoemination]

Can I see? Can I see? [ Yes, she's like a five year old at this point. ] Come on, show it off unless you need a reason to.

[greyerrant]

"No." He shrugs his armored shoulders, the auto-reactive pauldrons shifting as he does so.

"People learn by doing."

'

[greyerrant]

[ He unsheathes the chainsword. It is as fierce as it looks, but he doesn't activate it. She might touch it and cut something off. ]

Very well. You may see my sword.

[gforceinmyfaaaace]

"So, say someone comes up to you and says 'Hey Mr. Knight Suit Man, I'm here to learn how to fight,' and all you do is shoot your weapon without telling them what you're doing... That counts as teaching?"

[greyerrant]

"No." He doesn't elaborate, but that clearly isn't quite how he'd teach them.

[gforceinmyfaaaace]

"O...kay. How would you teach them?"

[greyerrant]

"Pick up a blade."

He gestures to the pile.

[gforceinmyfaaaace]

Pit glances at the pile.

Then breaks his bow into two blades.

"Already have some."

[greyerrant]

Loken doesn't respond further, just gunning his chainsword to life with the shriek of the toothed saw-blades tearing through the air, and stepping in with a heavy-handed swing to test Pit's guard. He's still moving within human limits.

For the moment.

[not_that_sasuke]

Sasuke was just planning for an ordinary walk for once when he encounters Loken, his steps coming to a halt. Of all the things he expected to come across on his little excursion, an 8 foot man accompanied by a pile of weapons was not among them.

"...Hello?"

[greyerrant]

"Greetings mortal. Are you here to learn?"

He booms, looking down at Sasuke.

[gforceinmyfaaaace]

Pit dashes lightning-quick to Loken's side, bouncing on the balls of his feet.

"That was slow."
