[twinfucker]

WHO || Jaime, Fred Jr., new squires, knights, entirely open to anyone who wants to gawk at the noobs.
WHAT || weapons training
WHERE || Knights HQ, Training Room / Armory / Firing Range / Gym, Dragon's Hide wing, 2nd floor
WHEN || Friday Oct 4
HOW || actionspam

It's that time again. New squires would have heard the word come 'round that there would be open weapons orientation this Friday - 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.

Ser Jaime stands in front of the armory doors, looking rather disinterested in all the squires amassing. He polishes his sword, standing in his shiny white and gold armor and, as he waits more or less patiently for people to show 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!

Can you punch through metal plate?

[fixyourproblem]

Umm... No? But I can use a blow torch.

[Besides why would someone still use a sword to cut through metal walls?]

[twinfucker]

A 'blow torch' [whatever the fuck that is] won't help much when your opponent slices your head off. Nor will bare fists. You'd do well to learn to use a real weapon.

[Nor would a sword if it is used by Brantley. But there's nothing wrong with learning new things, besides swords are kind of cool, don't you think? Spear is cooler, though.]

If you insist.

[He grabs the previous longsword and wields it two-handed.]

Now what?
