Martial Arts (Class 2)

[bridekiddo.livejournal.com]

Beatrix walks into the room, which is lined with mats and other essential things.

"Alright, last class we picked partners and got to know each other, this class, with your partners I want to see what martial arts you know yourself. This will give me an idea of where to start you all."

Marty comes in and nods politely to Ms. Kiddo. He kicks off his shoes and sits on the mat waiting for his chance to spar.

"Hello there, nice to see you."

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

Marty smiles.

"Nice to see you too. Um... Ms. Kiddo I have a small... *business* problem that you might be familiar with. Could we arrange for a time to meet outside of the classroom to discuss. I think we talked about meeting before, but I've been... a little on the busy side. Can you tell me what would be a good time to meet?"

[OOC: I'm pretending that Marty knows a bit about Bea's past since they are both in the "trade".]

(OOC: Bea's not in the trade anymore, but that's fine.)

"Yes you left me a voice mail, we will...discuss it at another time."

[oatmanspatient.livejournal.com]

Marty nods, understanding that this is not the time or place.

"What would be a good time? And where?"

[OOC: This thread (http://www.livejournal.com/community/fandomhigh/116554.html?thread=3920970#t3920970) might explain some things...]

*sits down on a mat and looks up at the teacher.*

*thinking*Ah, shit... I've never taken martial arts before. Damn me and my laziness.

"You look a bit lost."

[fullmetal-havoc.livejournal.com]

Ah, me? Lost? Nah... I ah... just lack a bit of experience. *cough* And a partner. A cute one.

*skulks in* I think I might have missed the first class - sorry.

Marty eyes your metal arm and thinks you would make a formidable opponent.

"Care to spar?"

[alchemic-bean.livejournal.com]

*Edward is stretching out casually, as if he does this all the time.*

Sure, why not? I need the workout.

[OOC: I'll be on later in the evening (10:30-11:00 pm) if you're interested in continuing]

"It's quite alright."

*Murphy missed the first class as the mun had a few days of chara overload, but he's here now*

Professor, I'll tell ya straight off - th' only fightin' techniques I know are th' ones I got from scrappin' with m' brother or survivin' a bar brawl while tryin' ta get Ma out of there an' back home.

"You'll learn lots of different techniques here."

[I guess I missed the first class, too. Did I get on your roster, or no? I'm going to fake that I did. If I didn't, just ignore me completely.]

Max shows up in his starched, white Ghi. He's wearing a white belt, even though he's made it to yellow, because he doesn't want people to think he's showing off. This is unusual. Max seems to have had the show-off beaten right out of him.

He's still wearing the outfit, though.

"Good afternoon, sensei. I've studied Qi Gong, Jeet Kune Do, and Wushu, all under the honorable Darin Berkowitz. At the community center in my hometown," he says, dutifully. He bows his head slightly, out of respect.

Alanna comes into Martial Arts and tries to remember if she's come before, and if she has, who her partner is.

"Um, I don't know much, but I can cause some damage."
