『 074 』Training on the lonesome. 『 video/action 』

[srslynotguy]

[ Accidental video is accidental. The blond knight is sitting out in the open, looking up the stars. He's been training, from the looks of it-- but now is the time for thinking. Well sort of. ]

I could really use another swordsman to practice with... It's been too quiet, lately.

[ pause, look around. ]

Never thought I'd wish someone were here to make trouble. Though, that makes keeping Lady Estellise safe easier. [ He smiles to himself. But then again, what would he do if Lady Estellise left too? He shakes his head. ]

I suppose I should head back soon...

Comments

He does, sometimes! It still tends to folllow him.

[beyourarmy]

Depends on how early. I work at the zoo, but I might be able to get up a little earlier

Yeah, well, it's complicated. Family stuff.

:( :( .......what do you guys DO to attract trouble?!

[srslynotguy]

Would five in the morning be a good time?

[ He's a knight, he's used to being up at absurd times... ]

Family, huh?

Setsuna's a brat with a big mouth. And an angel with a lot of power.

[beyourarmy]

Sure. That'll work! Not everyday to start with, though. I like sleeping in a little on my days off.

[And Setsuna's used to not sleeping much just because he's young.]

Yeah. Weird family, huh?

Well. Now Flynn knows why. Big mouth. Yuri's got that too :x

[srslynotguy]

Understood. I'm used to keeping early hours and it's become a difficult habit to break. [ Not that he'd break it or anything. You know, for work. ]

Yes. But I suppose some families are like that.

Yeah. Setsuna misses that guy.

[beyourarmy]

What kind of guy has a habit like that? You're no slouch, huh?

Yeah. I guess they are. And either way, it's my family.

Someone who can talk and match your pace, huh?

[srslynotguy]

I'm an Imperial Knight; it's part of my job to keep early hours.

Yes. If you can talk fondly of them, murderous intentions aside, perhaps they aren't that bad.

[ Of course, Flynn wouldn't know........... ]

Yeah, that's not something he finds often.

[beyourarmy]

A knight? Like...wear armor and protect people with a chivalry code and all that?

Heh. Well, no, they could be pretty bad. But they're still part of my family.

[Sure. Because he doesn't have a murdering best friend that he's still really fond of.]

Chatterbox :x

[srslynotguy]

You could put it that way.

And family really is important.

[ Just a best friend who gets into trouble all the darn time and gets stabbed by his subordinate off a cliff... ]

Yes, indeed. He doesn't know how to shut up sometimes.

[beyourarmy]

I've never met a knight before, just some vampires and angels, and demons. I bet you're really good with a sword.

Family is.

[Yeah, meanwhile Setsuna had a wing ripped off by the person he's talking about, and stabbed himself.]

Well... it uh, Flynn maybe thinks it's not as bad as Yuri....?!

[srslynotguy]

I'm good enough, I suppose. Still, I feel I have a ways to go before becoming 'really good'.

And vampires, angels, and demons- Around here?

[ :( :( :( ]

Might be worse. Yuri can keep secrets. Setsuna's a blabbermouth.

[beyourarmy]

We'll see when we practice!

Well, some of those angels and demons I met back home. The vampires I met here.

...you're human, right?

:c So Setsuna won't be able to lie about his bad circumstances?!

[srslynotguy]

I've only ever heard about angels and demons being fictional in our world...

And yes, I am.

He tries! But he usually sucks at it.

[beyourarmy]

I thought they were fictional myself. Until they showed up in my city to harass me.

That's almost a relief. I don't get to meet too many of those, it feels like.
