Fencing Club - Salle - After Classes

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

Peter got to the salle early to set out the practice swords, towels and water then spent the extra few minutes stretching out and running through a few drills of his own.

Once everyone else had come in, he sheathed Rhindon at his side, grinned somewhat sheepishly, and began speaking, assuming he'd gain people's attention.  "I have to apologise about not being here last week," he said.  "My mun's an idiot.  There was an - err - 'emergency' with some of the decorations for the dance last week, and that was probably the worst excuse I've ever had to make.  Anyhow, it won't happen again."

"Why doesn't everyone go around and introduce themselves first today, perhaps explain his - or her - background with blades since I don't think everyone knows each other.  I'm Peter Pevensie - you all probably know that.  I'm a knight of Narnia, been training with swords since I was twelve or so.  And I've learned at least as much here at Fandom as I had at home because everyone's different fighting styles.  Oh, and I'm a senior so if one of you wants to possibly think about taking up the club next year after I go home."

He looked at the person closest to him.  "You go ahead and start, if you'd like."

Re: Warm Up

Liir warmed his muscles with a quick series of movements before starting to stretch, taking his time as he considered picking up an actual sword again for his drills. He'd been using the broom, after all.
