*Imani headed into the training room and began digging through his pack*

Kyle Hess (Nov 30, 2011 10:59:05 PM)
Aengus followed, giving the room a once over. He lapsed into some thorough, all-but-effortless stretching while he waited. "If I wind up hittin' you a few extra times, it's nothin' personal. Tend to get a little tunnel-visiony."

Imani Shields (Nov 30, 2011 11:00:30 PM)
*He chuckled*It happen. I need ya ta stop, I jus' give ya a little chomp*He clacked his teeth together and kept digging*(I figure without an ST to rate bunks, we can just call em level 1s and see who gets what. Sound good?)

Kyle Hess (Nov 30, 2011 11:01:40 PM)
(sounds good) He laughed. "Not usually the situation for sayin' it, but... no teeth." A bit of a smirk, as he methodically cracked his knuckles. "Guessin' you aren't of a mind to hand out free cantrip pointers, huh?"

Imani Shields (Nov 30, 2011 11:02:53 PM)
Ain't nothin' free, but I play by da rules fo' ya.

Kyle Hess (Nov 30, 2011 11:03:37 PM)
"Well, not sure what all I've got to offer... but maybe we can work somethin' out down the road."

Imani Shields (Nov 30, 2011 11:04:46 PM)
*He dug out half a blunt and lit it up. He took a drag and coughed immediately. After a second puff, he held it out for the Sidhe. It smelled like pot and burning woodchips*(2 for me, 3 for you)

Kyle Hess (Nov 30, 2011 11:05:46 PM)
His eyebrow lifted, but he accepted the blunt and took a hit. His nose wrinkled, but he held the smoke in, suppressing the urge to cough as he handed it back.

Imani Shields (Nov 30, 2011 11:07:45 PM)
*He snuffed it and tucked the thing away again*Depend what arts ya know. Maybe we trade*He set his pack down outside the sparring area and returned*

Kyle Hess (Nov 30, 2011 11:08:58 PM)
He grinned as the cantrip took effect, armoring them against one another. "Ready?" He eased onto the balls of his feet, shifting into a fairly classical boxing stance, though he kept his fists chambered a bit lower, just above his hips. "Know a little Soothsay... everything else, you already got."

Kyle Hess (Nov 30, 2011 11:10:00 PM)
(16b6 init)

Imani Shields (Nov 30, 2011 11:10:47 PM)
Ain't got no interest in fortune tellin, but we work somethin' out*He pressed his palms together and the claws slid out of his gloves*(10b7)

Imani Shields (Nov 30, 2011 11:11:12 PM)
(full d blocking)

Kyle Hess (Nov 30, 2011 11:12:21 PM)
(Haymaker... just a single strike)

Kyle Hess (Nov 30, 2011 11:13:46 PM)
He lifted his eyebrows, at the sight of the claws... debating the merits, before he untied his gauntlets and slipped them off, encasing his fists in chimerical metal. With that, he rushed, his footwork uncanny as he closed and twisted, bringing his right arm up for a heavly slug to the cap's jaw. The Scathach moved in utter silence, a look of unshakeable intent passing over his features. (6s to hit)

Kyle Hess (Nov 30, 2011 11:14:27 PM)
slipped them on*

Imani Shields (Nov 30, 2011 11:15:48 PM)
*His bloodshot eyes tracked the Sidhe's movements well. When that arm came in, he stepped out at an angle and shoved his arm into the offending limb, nearly sending it off course*(5 to block)

Kyle Hess (Nov 30, 2011 11:16:17 PM)
What could have been a knock out blow was made glancing only. (3B)

Imani Shields (Nov 30, 2011 11:17:22 PM)
(Soaked 2)*A bit of bark cracked and dissipated when the hit connected, but the 'cap didn't appear shaken*

Kyle Hess (Nov 30, 2011 11:18:12 PM)
There was no banter from the sidhe... he just slipped a few steps back with that eerie silence still going on, circling. (7b6)

Imani Shields (Nov 30, 2011 11:18:28 PM)
(10b7 again)

Kyle Hess (Nov 30, 2011 11:18:54 PM)
(Block if needed, Strike)

Imani Shields (Nov 30, 2011 11:19:13 PM)
(Claw/claw)

Imani Shields (Nov 30, 2011 11:21:05 PM)
*He closed in as the Sidhe backed off. Both sets of claws raised, he swiped one horizontal while the others went vertical*(2/2 to hit)

Kyle Hess (Nov 30, 2011 11:22:38 PM)
The sidhe's armored gauntlet picked off the horizontal swipe easily, but the vertical strike would slip through. (5s to block the first)

Imani Shields (Nov 30, 2011 11:23:05 PM)
(Heh, failed damage)

Kyle Hess (Nov 30, 2011 11:24:28 PM)
He shrugged off the claws as they hit on the side, and followed up with a darting blow to the solar plexus. He focused himself a bit, trying to pull out of his battle trance. (4 to hit, 3B)

Imani Shields (Nov 30, 2011 11:25:39 PM)
(Soaked 1)*Leaving himself exposed turned out to be a mistake. That hit cracked off the rest of the bark, and a bit of rock dust as well*Look like da shit I heard bout ya house is true.

Kyle Hess (Nov 30, 2011 11:26:50 PM)
The killing edge left his eyes, and he shook his head to shrug off the last of it, drawing a deep breath and grinning. The fight had left him charged, though, brimming with energy. Perhaps not as impressive as some sidhe, given his dilluted blood. "Kickin' ass, forgettin' about the takin' names part?" (3s to WP)

Imani Shields (Nov 30, 2011 11:28:55 PM)
*He watched carefully, still ready to go until he saw the Sidhe calm down. He lowered his hands and the claws retracted*Somethin' like dat.

Kyle Hess (Nov 30, 2011 11:31:09 PM)
"Not bad yourself." A nod. "Sure them claws're nasty." He brought his fists together, producing a heavy metallic clang. "Can't really use the likes of 'em myself, unless I'm really wantin' the other guy to stay down for a long time, which ain't usually the case."

Imani Shields (Nov 30, 2011 11:32:36 PM)
I don't believe in pullin' punches. Wit allies, dey don't learn if ya take it easy. Wit enemies, dey still alive ta hunt ya ass down lata*He went to retrieve his pack and the bottle of bouron within*

Kyle Hess (Nov 30, 2011 11:34:18 PM)
"Didn't say anythin' about takin' it easy... just keeps a friendly spar from turnin' into a blood bath, or makes it so there's somethin' left to ask questions when the haze fades." A shrug. The bravado slipped, just a little there, but he turned his attention on removing and re-tying the gauntlets.

Imani Shields (Nov 30, 2011 11:35:47 PM)
I guess dat's da downside ta ya skills, huh?*He had himself more bourbon, seemingly unaffected by the loss*

Kyle Hess (Nov 30, 2011 11:37:09 PM)
"'Bout the size of it." A nod, before he scratched his neck. "But it hasn't been a problem so far."

Imani Shields (Nov 30, 2011 11:38:17 PM)
*He nodded, letting the subject drop*Shit, I'm jus' glad we got anotha real fighter round here. Been a bitch havin' ta win all da battles myself.

Kyle Hess (Nov 30, 2011 11:39:35 PM)
He grinned. "'Bout all I'm good at, so, I'm glad there's a place for it." He cocked a brow. "What about Bly an' Aleron? There's Drew, but, guessin' he's the inconsistent sort."

Kyle Hess (Nov 30, 2011 11:40:28 PM)
"An... Thomas, right? The troll?"

Imani Shields (Nov 30, 2011 11:42:10 PM)
Da other Sidhe is smart enough ta stay out da way, but dey ain't got no real fightin' skill. Thomas, he mo' a wall den anythin' else.

Kyle Hess (Nov 30, 2011 11:44:28 PM)
He nodded in his approximation of thoughtfulness. "Good ta know, I guess. Well... experiment was a success anyway. Looks like we got a way to beat some sense inta people. Any time you wanna throw down, I'm game. Need to stay sharp, without a mentor to kick my ass all over the freehold."

Imani Shields (Nov 30, 2011 11:45:16 PM)
I'm always workin' on my shit. Be nice ta have a partna dat can give me a challenge.

Kyle Hess (Nov 30, 2011 11:46:22 PM)
"I'll have to throw on my poncho next time." Shaking his head. "Wasn't expectin' the claws, I'll admit."

Imani Shields (Nov 30, 2011 11:48:19 PM)
Dat's da nice thing bout em. Jus' look like gloves*He emptied the bourbon bottle and stuffed it back into his pack*

Kyle Hess (Nov 30, 2011 11:49:53 PM)
"Element of surprise is always nice. Then again, I tend to just hit stuff til' it stops movin', so, can't say I'm exactly a creature of subtlety."

Imani Shields (Nov 30, 2011 11:51:03 PM)
I always feel betta wit an ace in da hole. Besides, ya get folk scared a ya hands, den dey gon' really shit themself when da teeth start chompin'

Kyle Hess (Nov 30, 2011 11:51:54 PM)
"Seen it in action." A grim shake of his head. "Don't ever plan on experiencin' it myself."

Kyle Hess (Nov 30, 2011 11:52:21 PM)
(brb)

Imani Shields (Nov 30, 2011 11:54:46 PM)
Betta hope ya don't get jumped by one a da corbies wit Adrienne. Once dey realize who da fighters is round here, ya be on top a dey list. Plus ya already up there jus' fo' being Sidhe.

Kyle Hess (Nov 30, 2011 11:56:51 PM)
"Ain't the brightest, but I ain't stupid either." He grinned crookedly. "Buncha' caps is out of my limits, for now."
