So he has a squire.

It's not that he's never trained anyone before. He trained himself, as well as others back in Everworld, so he knows how this goes. But this is about more than just making sure that she doesn't get herself killed, and every trainee is different, so he knows that it's best for him to start with the basics and work his way up. He's never really been the touchy-feely type or one to use a lot of words to begin with, so he figures he'd start with the least personal and work his way up.

Late one evening, Erica will receive a voicemail asking her to meet up with him early the next morning, prepared for training. Apologies to her teenage sleep schedule. Not that this is actually all that awful as far as early is concerned (the sun, at least, will be up) but it's still probably far earlier than she actually wants to be awake. There's logic to it, though - the sooner training is done, the sooner she can do whatever the hell else she wants with her day. That at least has to be worth something.

When she gets there, he'll be hanging out near one of the punching bags, warming up for the training session ahead.
