Combat- Tuesday- 2nd period- Class #5

[solo_sword]

The class was back in the dorms gym again, without any of the Danger Shop fun. "I figured this week we'd return to hand-to-hand sparring," Jaina began. "It's probably the most versatile thing you're going to learn, and I don't want you to get bored doing weapons every week. Pick someone in your group to spar against, and if you feel like you need to adjust where you put yourself, go ahead and do it.

"Also, it's Parents Weekend this week," she said. "Which means if you want to try and warn me against telling people things, now's the time to try it."

"We'll see about that," she said.

She'd so do it. It could be like a possible tension-reliever!

Cade grinned at her. "Might make the weekend bearable."

"Are you not expecting a good time?" she wondered, more curious as to how things might go rather than prying into a student's personal life.

Cade shrugged. "He sent me here because he didn't want me with him."

"But he's coming to visit," she said.

"Probably to be sure I'm not in prison," Cade replied.

"I think that's secretly the reason everyone checks up on younger relatives," Jaina told him. "Maybe that's just my family."

Cade snorted before he could stop himself. "Mine does it too."

Cough.

"Then if I can give some completely unsolicited advice, don't think about why he's here and it'll be a lot easier to enjoy your weekend," she told him.

"Can I just ditch him somewhere?" Cade asked.

Re: Talk to Jaina

[solo_sword]

"Sure. But the you have no idea what or who he's going to run into," she said honestly.

"Caritas will still be open, right?" Cade checked.

Cade made amazing life choices.

Re: Talk to Jaina

Sigh. "Probably. Along with the gym and salle."

See, here she was, trying to give healthy alternatives...

"I don't do the sword things," Cade said firmly.

Re: Talk to Jaina

[solo_sword]

"Then skip the salle. And I apologize now for some of the class topics." Since she had a class full of sword-wielders and all.

"More lightsabers?" Cade tried not to sound as wary as he felt.

Jaina shook her head. "We might have the option to go back to it later if people want to, but we're going to try metal blades," she said, watching him. "Were they a problem?"

"There aren't Jedi at home," Cade said with a shrug. "Seemed kinda gruesome to use their weapon."

Re: Talk to Jaina

Well... that was depressing. It was one of those things she wanted to ask about, and then reminded herself that she did enough of that to herself and leave it alone.

"Well, if we do it again and you're still against doing it, just let me know. I won't make you," she told him. Traumatizing people who signed up as a job so they'd get better was one thing, but she didn't want to make people uncomfortable for a grade.

Cade's lips quirked up. "Appreciate it."
