Punching People and Not Breaking Your Hand: Fighting 101 - Period 5 - [05/19]

[mouthy-merc.livejournal.com]

Still happy about the ponyfight from the weekend, Deadpool was positively bouncey in class.

Yes.

Ponyfight.

Don't ask, just... don't ask.

"Good morning kiddos! I hope you're all de-hooved and ready for some fighting!" A beat. "With punching bags. What? Did you really think I'd just let you run about willy-nilly and beat the crap outta each other?"

Deadpool frowned at that.

"Okay, so maybe I would, but this is a class and they frown on that."

Which just ruined his plans for a battle royale, really.

"Parter up and practice hitting that bag like it owes you money!"

Ron sat and held the bag. More. With a somewhat bored expression on his face.

"Ready when you are."

Liir gave him a very flat look before finally punching the thing.

He wasn't a very physically-minded sort; it was one of the reason he'd decided to take two classes on defense on top of his lessons with Ino. His reactions just weren't physical. When something happened, when he had to do something or vent something, his impulse wasn't to hit or strike.

Mostly, it was to run or hide. Occasionally to comment, though he was far from the type to quip. In extreme cases, he would shout or scream.

Today, however, he had to be physical; it was something he could do, but as Ron had already experienced, it took him a moment to settle into it.

Once he was there, though, he was there and he used the stance and a bit of frustration at certain things to hit the damn bag plenty hard.

Ron held the bag so it would swing around. "There you go," he said encouragingly. "Take another swing."

That was more helpful than perhaps he could know.

He gave it another hit, then one more. They were getting more and more sure.
