video † looking for duel

[The man on the screen is a bit tall, if the camera angle is any indication. He is dressed in a tight navy uniform and a cape. Someone please tell him that Halloween isn't for another month.

He has a rather frightening stare, though. Maybe... tell him next time.]

I require a sparring partner. I use a sword and shield, but you can use whatever you're comfortable with. I know some magic as well.

[A pause.]

Meet me in District 2, in the small park at [intersection].

[He shuts the feed off after an awkward silence.]

Kratos. It's been a while. [He smiles and nods a greeting.] I hope you've been well?

I imagine others would provide you a more typical challenge but if you want something more unique to push your boundaries with I'm available.

[Forgive him. At only 10 ft tall, sometimes he forgets he's not as giant a robot as he used to be.]

[Oh hey it's the knight robot. Don't ask how that works, Kratos doesn't know either. He's still getting used to actually talking to people.]

Well enough, I suppose. And you?

[But this isn't really time for smalltalk. He has some training to catch up on.]

I must admit, I'm curious to see how you fight.

[winged_knight]

Fair, considering. I feel a bit like my skills are...underutilized here, but I still find ways to help out.

[Now training and small talk can go hand-in-hand!]

I know and can teach several martial disciplines, both hard and soft, with blades or hand-to-hand. I tend to focus on speed and agility for my personal style though. I'd happy to give a demonstration at some point.

[Now he wonders if Deadlock wants to get thrown around the sparring ring again. Probably not.]

[cruxified]

Hmm... It's been some time since I had an opponent with knowledge of martial arts.

[He pauses, considering...]

In return, I could demonstrate some magic from my world.
