Man. Just when I swore I'd never ever get involved with anything SERO ever puts out there that's gimmicky, and then...

"Thermographic Night Vision Contacts".  What are those, they help you see better in the dark, but without goggles or anything? Do they really work? For stuff like...monster tracking, like Darwin-work, you think that'd really help a lot? Be useful?

I'm not even allowed in the arcade, but maybe I could borrow Riku's ID and get in on a late-entry team, if they're still takin' em. Is anybody here any good at laser-tag?

Broke a couple arcade machines? Not even! Their security works fast.

[mouthbreathing]

[Hmm. Could have been a lot worse.]

That doesn't seem too terrible. Why did you break them in the first place?

[madeinoblivion]

'Cause Jet said we had to take a stand against the companies, and...

We were idiots. Thought some lame arcade would be a good place to start.

[mouthbreathing]

[And he softens completely.]

That changes things a little. When you're up against something as big and controlling as a company, it's easy to feel powerless. For what it's worth, I understand why you did it- and I definitely wouldn't object to you pulling the wool over their eyes again.

[madeinoblivion]

Oh, hey, look. An 'adult' who isn't out to yell at me. That's a first.

[mouthbreathing]

Well, I can't say that I approve of property destruction or cheating security, but there are always exceptions. Just be careful if you go through with it, alright?

[madeinoblivion]

Yeah yeah, sure.

You get all your stuff sorted out, by the way?

[mouthbreathing]

Just checking.

Yes, thank you! I had a check-up and got a few loose screws tightened. Now I just need to make sure I'm in shape.

[madeinoblivion]

What kind of training to you do?

[mouthbreathing]

Mostly weight training. I've found somewhere to practice some of my moves, but dummies aren't the best opponents.

[madeinoblivion]

Hnh. Well...what's your style like? Fight-wise. I use a blade, so that's probably not the best against you.

[mouthbreathing]

I'd like to say that I'm a balanced fighter. I try to cover as much as possible: submission, throws, technique.

[madeinoblivion]

Iroh could probably let you train at his place, maybe? It's for bending martial forms, adapted for non-benders.

[mouthbreathing]

I've heard a little about bending; I'm not sure how well it would suit me, given how much close contact wrestling requires, but at this point I'm willing to try anything. You never know what you might end up against in the ring, so I'd gladly take on any sort of opponent. Thank you for the tip-off!

[madeinoblivion]

No problem! And good luck with it!
