[alsohawkeye]

I take it you don't mean verbal sparring.

[lostsoldier]

no


[ ...in case his verbosity was not already clear. ]

eventually:

[lostsoldier]

hand to hand
any style

[alsohawkeye]

I can do that, but are you sure you don't want to do some verbal sparring training? It seems like you could use the practice.

[lostsoldier]

for what purpose

[alsohawkeye]

For the purpose of coming off less like a psycho and more like a normal human that I should trust to try to hit me.

[echopraxia]

I am interested.

[lostsoldier]

unplugged or native?

[echopraxia]

The first. It has been important to me, to teach my body the things my mind knows.

[lostsoldier]

[ the sentiment hits home, even if he won't say it. ]

when can you meet

[echopraxia]

I work during the day. My evenings are my own.

[jomi]

does EXPERIENCE LEBEL FLEXIBLE mean your going to take it easy on people or you want people to take it easy on you?

[lostsoldier]

first one

[jomi]

thats confident
have a resume
?

[lostsoldier]

no

it's not confident
not looking for somebody to take it easy on me

[ that doesn't mean he's any good yet. by his standards, anyway. ]

[jomi]

can you really get better if someone is just flipping you over on your back onstantly

Are you flexible too?

[lostsoldier]

yes

[ is this a trick question. ]

why

[axeyou]

Because I only spar with flexible people.

How hard do you like to go?

[lostsoldier]

[ ??? ]

harder the better

[axeyou]

Ooh, I like that.

You're on, stud. Got a favorite gym?

[hacker]

that hurts, Barnes.

[lostsoldier]

what

[hacker]

not being your first call.
or at least your second

[lostsoldier]

[ oops. ]
