Do you think swords are boring? Someone told me that. I don't think its true. ( He sounds a little annoyed too but not too much. It's more like a kid whining than anything else. ) You know, there are a lot of different kinds of swords and that's really interesting!

For example, I use a wakizashi. It's short so it can't reach very far but that means I can move a lot easier in small places. I have to work harder to get close to my opponent but if I can do it and their weapon is too big, they won't be able to hit me very well. I think it's fun to see how close I can get.

I've also seen a sword that was a thousand years old! I think it was magic too but I don't know. Isn't that cool? There are a lot of different types of swords and even more styles so it's fun to learn about them.

( There's a bit of silence. He's thinking about what he just said. It's really cool, right? And not boring at all? )

Hey! Does anyone want to practice with me? It'll be fun. I'm pretty sharp, heh heh heh~

( And quietly, at the very end, there's a mutter, )

It'll be more fun than practicing math... ... Aaaah! I didn't mean to say that...!

Fine, I'll be careful and gentle. Promise

That's a good point, I'll make sure to adhere to it. But you know, my teacher used to say that pain is the best teacher.

[ ooc: if you want to play out/or handwave them training I'm totes okay with that! ]

[ He's absolutely right tho, no offense taken ]

A good teacher should make sure you learn whatever they're trying to teach you. Being nice is just a bonus.

Don't worry about it kid, I was joking. I'm not going to break you or hurt you, or anything.

Can't promise "no bruises", but you know those happen even in the most careful of training sessions.
