Am I supposed to read your mind
What do you want from me

I think you'll be adequate with a spear and I think you'll be better than me with a sword and daggers
I focused for a long time on polearms and throwing knives
Only in recent months have I focused on swords hammers shields
Whatever I need at the time
I'm no expert

Versatility is important in combat I'm trying to round out my skill set
So if you throw in everything else then so be it

[fessus]

"Adequate" huh

Then it's on me to change your mind. Bc everything else you're saying? I agree with. If we're stuck here I'm gonna take smth from it

Maybe that's versatility idk

But I'm not leaving here just being "adequate"

[gyve]

That's what I thought you'd say

One of our comrades has difficult choices to make in his world
As do I
He said that here we have time to decide what to do

So it seems being transported to this city has its merits
Versatility is using what you have at your disposal to accomplish a task
A readiness to adjust to new conditions
We're already primed to succeed
That's why I believe you'll pick up the kata easily if you dedicate yourself to them

Why do you fight Noctis

1/2

[fessus]

Good to know I'm predictable already

[ A largely harmless comment that could be a joke if not for how fast it comes. Instead it's the first reflexive barb as his defenses rise, not in response to Kaladin but absolutely in response to where the conversation is heading. ]

I fight bc I'm supposed to

2/2

[fessus]

Do we have to talk about this? If you wanna share your reasons I'm not stopping you but agreeing to spar doesn't mean I wanna get into stuff from back home

I wanna get better, that's plenty

[gyve]

I asked you a question
I'm not forcing you to answer it
Just know if you show up to our matches with a weak spirit you'll lose

Pick a time and I'll be there

[fessus]

[ Maybe he's just too accustomed to push-back. Expecting it from Kaladin and not getting it makes him feel a little foolish... and a little relieved. ]

Fine noon on Saturday

If you wanna fix your audio settings we can do that before or after idc

[gyve]

Noon

( what the hell will he do with six hours of free time? )

Fine I told you to pick something I guess I can't complain
Before is for the best

( ... )

You'll probably be too exhausted to do it after

( heheheheh )

[fessus]

[ if you message me before noon on a weekend i swear ]

Wow

You sure you wanna say that to the guy who's gonna pick the voice in your head? Brb gonna listen to some samples and prep

GET THIS FB AUNT GRUMPY CAT MEME OUT OF HERE

[gyve]

( ... wait... )

If you change it to something even stupider than what it currently is I'll take this whole thing outside

[fessus]

[ what meme ]

Did you seriously just threaten to call me out for a throw down

STOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP

[gyve]

You try listening to this all day long

You should be able to figure out how to hear my last message in the standard female voice

[fessus]

Yep

[ Oh, as soon as he'd realized what Kaladin was experiencing he had to do a little digging and listen to the default. But... now he's inspired to go back and listen to the call out in particular.

How does he save this audio– ]

Is that supposed to make me give you an easier time over threatening me? Tell me you'd seriously try to kick my ass

[gyve]

( ... gdi... )

I would half-heartedly try to kick your ass

[fessus]

I knew it

Bc you give off pretty lame vibes

[gyve]

What is that supposed to mean

[fessus]

It means you're the kind of guy who says "watch out you're gonna pay" and then still brings bandaids in case someone needs one

1/2

[gyve]

2/2

[gyve]

I don't think that's an accurate portrayal of me

Besides bandaids are for superficial injuries like cuts and scrapes
Not wounds from a spear

[fessus]

I thought we established you weren't gonna try to impale me with a spear, y/n

[gyve]

I would never impale you with a spear

( not even if there's a FIRE )

We're comrades

1/2

[fessus]

[ Oh. ]

Thanks

2/2

[fessus]

Idk what it's worth or what you've got going on back home, but I've got your back too

[gyve]

Knowing I have at least one ally in revelation is a relief
I'll remember your words

Please be wary of who else you say them to

[fessus]

Cool that's super ominous

You "wary" about someone in particular or do I get to guess..... bc I've met one or two guys so far that came across pretty sus
