[open] training day!

Who: Wen Sizhui and open to all
Where: Coach I - Training Gym
When: Month Llama, Day 2
What: Wen Sizhui is training in the gym and is open for a friendly spar or match.
Warnings: Will add as needed



His explorations had taken him all over the train, learning about each and every coach that weren't sleepers and seeing how they could be utilized for activity when he's not busy doing chores. Wen Sizhui had been happy when he discovered the Training Gym and had decided that he would take at least a few days to train there to make sure his skills remain sharp.

It's early, or he assumes it's early from how his body feels, when he makes his way to the Coach and sets down his rucksack. He roots around the cupboard until he finds the hand held pads and training dummies. He smiles as he runs his fingers over them; how sophisticated! Far more sturdy than the straw dummies he'd practiced with when he was just first learning and softer than the wooden dummies he'd trained with as he got older.

With no way of tying his hair back, Wen Sizhui carefully takes the string out of his purple hoodie and pulls half of his hair back neatly and ties it off so that it stays out of his face. He sets his rucksack down in the corner and pulls out his qiankun pouch before pulling his sword out of that. The familiar weight of the blade feels good in his hands and he smiles, glad that he's able to keep his sword with him on this journey.

He rolls his shoulders and goes through the warm ups before facing off the dummy he set down, swinging his sword until he is at the ready. The disciple had already been training with the dummy for a few hours when he hears the door slide open. He pauses and wipes the sweat from his brow, turning toward the visitor with a smile.

Wait, hold up. He gets to hold it?! It looks very intricate, beautiful and we'll made. Not that he's some kind of blacksmith, but you can just tell when something is made with utmost care and respect.

Gingerly he'll take the sheathed sword in his hands, inspecting it closer. Hell the sheath is already amazing, but the work on the handle of the sword is wonderful too.

"Looks more like a work of art than a weapon." Dennis admires it for a beat more, then smiles, giving it back to it's owner.

"Bet you kick a lotta ass with it though." Wait is that disrespectful. Is kicking ghost ass supposed to be honorable?

There's something amusing about hearing someone so soft and kind faced saying he kicks ass. Then again he clearly knew how to use that sword so. Better watch out.

Dennis laughs a little.

"No uh, like hundreds of years ago and stuff, sure, but not anymore. Swords are for museums and collectors now."

It's kinda cute. Like a confused puppy. A confused puppy with a sword.

"Guns mostly. Or knives. Most people don't got ways to, or call the police to help them." Most people try to keep their head down and nose clean.

"Mhm, guess you probably don't got those huh? They're uh... you shoot little balls of metal out of them and they go real fast. Doesn't sound like they'd do a lot, but they can hurt people real bad." And real quick. Look a knife might not sound like much, but a pocket knife is probably more common than most just carrying a gun around. Especially where he's from. Alas not everyone in modern England has a personal sword with a cool name to carry around to kick ass with.

"Eh, sure." Dennis shrugs, "Sometimes they help, sometimes they're just there to hassle people. S'good and bad I guess." Depends on where they're going to help, who they're helping. Place he lives no one really liked having to go there, they just paint everyone in the estates as poor troublemakers.

"Always gonna be bad apples." Dennis shakes his head. Especially if there's any sort of power involved. Whether it's literal power or power of law and being able to hide behind it. People will abuse it when they get it.

He perks again at Sizhui asking if he'd like to learn how to use a sword.

"Actually Inigo's been teaching stuff, but won't say no to another master swordsman giving me some pointers." Dennis barely knows the basics, but it's a start.
