training ♔ monday morning

[graveflowers]

WHO || Violet Reedhym, David Levin, Lan, assorted squires and mentors, your mom.
WHAT || Weapons training!
WHERE || Knights HQ, Training Room / Armory / Firing Range / Gym, Dragon's Hide wing, 2nd floor
WHEN || June 22nd, Monday morning [backdated]
HOW || Actionspam

It's that time again. New squires (and new knights who might have missed it in the hubbub) would have heard the word come 'round that there would be open weapons orientation this Monday -- which is also open to anyone who just wants to come spar with the newbies as well. As before, at the top of the main staircase is the entrance to an incredibly spacious room, that has gym and weight training equipment on the wall near the door, and then lots of old school training dummies and more at the far end. A glass door enters into a firing range, and another pair of large doors on the farthest wall lead to the armory.

Vi -- or Sir Reedhym if you're feeling like making her feel old -- is running the orientation today with a special guest of surly Sir David Levin who is being his normal strong and silent type off to the side but the wall of weapons. Sir Wellington is also in attendance, being Lan. Lanning about, as he do. The small knight toting a very teeny week old infant in a sling rounds everyone up in the center of the room to start this shit off with a loud whistle and a very cheerful, "Okay, all y'all shut up!"

Some of the squires' mentor Knights will have accompanied them - others will have left them to their own devices. Everyone's welcome to tag into threads or make their own!

Uh, no, not... sorta? He's the resident head of the Dragon's Fire. Hella magic, pew, pew, pew. [ she makes finger guns and mimes firing them at shawn. actual grown up knight right here, y'all. ]

[pwnspatrickjane]

[Ahhh gotcha. The sects at least he knows.]

So he's more like Merlin than Q.

[graveflowers]

Yes! Very Merlin-y.

[pwnspatrickjane]

Awesome. I'll have to go poke around sometime. See what else is around.

[NO SHAWN, DO NOT GO PLAY WITH MAGIC.]

[graveflowers]

There's loads of stuff. And Zero and the Dragon's Hoard have a ton of cool tech, too.

[pwnspatrickjane]

Yeah, I've seen some of the Dragon's Hoard stuff at the other orientation.

[WHICH WAS COOL though he was told to stop touching the toys lest he laser someone's head off.]

This place definitely has the best toys.

[graveflowers]

Doesn't it? I'm pretty old school, but some of the tech I've seen is amazeballs. It's like if Tesla and Hogwarts had a baby. Science magic!

[pwnspatrickjane]

[Shawn blinks for a moment because he so doesn't know who Tesla is (knowledge 8).]

You mean like the car?

[graveflowers]

[ hilariously vi doesn't know it's a car so she looks... confused. ]

Like the guy? Edison's archnemesis?

[pwnspatrickjane]

[His brow furrows a bit as he tries to connect the dots (knowledge 7).]

The light bulb guy?

[graveflowers]

Yes. I think. What were we talking about again?

[pwnspatrickjane]

[Shawn doesn't even know. They have gotten so off course.]

I think we started off talking about my ability to shoot and then got incredibly side tracked. But in a good way.

[Tangents are his best friend.]

[graveflowers]

That's very true. I should let you get back to practice though... Gimme a ring when you want to get certified, okay?

[pwnspatrickjane]

[He nods with a small smile.]

Will do.

[And he will do as she says and go back to practicing. /scene]
