Stabbing People for Fun and Profit: Mercenary Work for Beginners, Monday, Period 4

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

There was a less than pleased and non-bouncy Deadpool waiting for the kids in the Danger Shope, because he had totally remembered to tell them to meet him there.

Okay, so not really, but he did leave a nice note telling them to get over there instead of their usual spot at the main campfire.

"First of all, it seems there was a wee bit of confusion over the assignment from last week," He said, glaring pointedly at a certain boy with a ponytail that was not a wolf tail and he really needed to accept that fact and move on with his life. Oh wait... he wasn't going to have one after Deadpool got done with him. "There is to be no maiming or injuring of Aly because that causes her to stab me in the kidney, and that makes me cranky. And a cranky me means I'm going to take this out on all of you kiddies!"

He grinned and held up a pair of escrima sticks. "Fighting practice today. Pick your weapon and we'll see what you're made of." Pause. "And I hope it isn't pie because that would be both messy and disturbing as then we would have to eat the pie that you are made of and that's cannibalism."

He should add something to that.

"And that only works for soccer teams in the Andes, not for high school students while they're off camping in a disturbingly familiar cliche for horror movies type environment."

Yup, that covered all the bases on that subject.

"So! One on one spar with me. Or my other lil' T.A., Setsuna because we've fought before already and know each other's tricks already." He grinned and looked over at Alec. "Not!Wolverine T.A., on the other hand, is new and exciting and yay for genetic enhancements in a fight!"

There was logic there, really.

"Now, if things get out of hand with Setsuna and any of you, I will intervene and it will not be fun for you. But I doubt that'll happen, she's good." There was a small bounce at that. "Now, are you kids ready to go?"

[[ooc: Please wait for the OCD is up and ready!]]

[[ooc part deux: weapons are completely moddable!

Talk Amongst Yourself

Plot things, do some expository dialogue, whatever you kooky kids enjoy nowadays.

"...."

Charlie's left wondering if there's any way to record this stuff and use it later. Either in a story, or just to freak people out.

Zuko might have been scowling at someone with a ponytail as well.

"It was in the Danger Room!" Sokka shouted out. "The safeguard things were on! She didn't get hurt, just annoyed!" He held up the finger of I Am Saying Something Important. "Plus, I taunted her and ran away. I happen to think I did a very good job of annoying her."

Fight Deadpool!

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

He was flipping the escrima sticks like he was in Color Guard.

...

Closet band geek.

Cassie was actually smiling.

"I still say weapons training is pointless for me."

Re: Fight Deadpool!

[girlzippo.livejournal.com]

Charlie tried to flip a stick like Deadpool. And dropped both of them.

Out-of-the-closet generic geek.

Raph picked up the sticks. They weren't sais, but eh, whatever. He tested the balance, then started to swing them around as if he was going through training motions to get comfortable with them.

Then without warning, he charged forward, taking a swipe at Deadpool.

Seely picked up one of the escrima sticks.

...like a baseball bat. Hey, go with what you know.

Re: Fight Deadpool!

[thebluespirit.livejournal.com]

Now this was more like it. There might have been a smirk as Zuko picked up two sticks. He balanced them in his hands for a moment, trying to feel their weight. They definitely weren't his dual blades, but he'd make do.

There were, unsurprisingly no light sabers among the offered weapons so Qui-Gon settled for a wooden practice blade of some sort that was at least the right shape and size.

He held it in front of him for a moment, checking its balance and reach, then nodded to himself with a tiny smile.

It would do.

Gavin looked a little nervous.

"Right," he said. "I guess I'm ready."

Eve picked up two of the sticks and tested them. They weren't her usual weapon of choice, but since using magic to fight the teacher would be Playing Dirty, and thusly Not Acceptable and Likely To Get Her In Trouble, she went for something slightly less trouble-causing but just as fun.

Ed smirked as he looked through the modded weapons. He picked up a pair of the sticks, figuring that nothing was quite like the weapon he was used to so they'd do well enough.

He spun one, watching Deadpool, then jumped in, thrusting at his stomach.

Sokka stuck an escrima stick in his boomerang sheath (yes, he STILL insists on wearing that thing everywhere) and filled his belt with wooden practice knives.

Just once, it'd be nice to fight with a boomerang.

He tested the balance of one of the knives while waiting for his turn, tossing it in the air and catching it, that sort of thing. It'd require a completely different technique to throw than he was used to, that was for sure...

When he was his turn, he threw them all at Deadpool -- two at his head, and then two more on each side, in case he tried to dodge, and then let out a loud yell and charged, with the stick held ready for a double-handed over-the-head swing.

"..." Kabuto loaded up on throwing knives, since they were the closest thing to kunai. He still had his own exploding tags, but he wasn't sure if he'd be needing those. Focusing chakra into his hands so they glowed with a pale blue fire, he smiled at Deadpool. "You're the one who set the assignment, Sensei," he said almost apologetically.

Haku adjusted his mask and stood there motionless, and waiting to Deadpool to make the first move.


There is nothing wrong with being a band geek!!

Fight Setsuna!

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

Wait for the angry, angry T.A. to ping in.

Re: Fight Setsuna!

[bound2blade.livejournal.com]

With a set-up like that, it was actually difficult for Setsuna to be angry. She was just kind of pink in the cheeks and grinning, until she found a good nodachi among the moddable weapons. Oncee she had the long blade in her hand, spun it around to find the right grip, and settled into a ready position for the first opponent to spar with, the seriousness settled in quickly. The anger would only be a matter of time...

Talk to Deadpool

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

After class. Because there was fighting to be done during!

OOC

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

Ping in here if there's anything in particular about your character's fighting ability you think I should know.

Oh, and their odds in a fight with Deadpool because that would be must helpful.

Re: OOC

[bound2blade.livejournal.com]

Don't hesitate to bug me with things like that, too, if you're going up against Setsuna! Thanks!

Re: OOC

[namelessblade.livejournal.com]

I find this class's lack of tinfoil sword penguins disturbing.
