So You Want to Be a Hero. [Friday, Period 5]
"Last week we covered basic unarmed self-defense," Yang said, sunglasses on because she'd been up way too late the night before. "But unless you've trained in unarmed combat, it can be nerve-wracking. And you run the risk of injuring yourself."
"But not everyone is a weapon, or carries a weapon with them at all times. Or your weapon-of-choice may have been broken, or taken away from you. So today, we're going to go over my second-favorite form of combat... found weaponry."
Look, Yang loved punching people. She was a bruiser. But the joy of smacking someone with a broom was glorious.
"And I'm not just talking about your typical 'hit them on the head with a bar stool.' No. That's cliché. I mean, it works, but come on. They'll be expecting it. Pool cues. Brooms. Chair legs. Bricks. A bottle. Or, hell, use a weapon you do have in a way they don't expect." With that, Yang mentally disengaged her metal arm as she spun around, catching it by the wrist with her biological hand, and using it to strike a training dummy like a baton. "If they aren't expecting it, you're more likely to get away with it."
"Now have fun!" And with that, the entire Danger Shop turned into a bar, with a riotous brawl already in progress, and Yang picked up a stool to smash it over anpc hologram's head.
What? Some things were classics for a reason.

After all, found weaponry was something he was quitenfmm familiar with!
Granted, in a very literal way, since you could barely walk a few feet around Hyrule without stumbling over some random sword or abandoned bow! So even though he suspected that wasn't at all what she meant, he couldn't help being terribly amused.
Re: RUMBLE!
...it wouldn't make much difference, unless he was considering using them as weapons, which he might!, but he was a little stoked about chairs.
If he wasn't using them for sitting, might as well use them for hitting, right?
He never really did care for chairs, even when he was a good few feet shorter...

Re: RUMBLE!
This class was not at all what she'd anticipated.
