Hey. I finally got my phone back from Yato, so I just wanted to check in.

It's been a couple days now, so if you've thought of a question post it here. Maybe someone else has the same question, and it would save me having to answer it all twice.

If you're in a pinch, you can drop me a message. I've got my own stuff to be doing too, but I'll answer when I can.

[Wow he found punctuation...]

Sure, I like swords.
But I am a katana and wakizashi pair. I can't use them, if that's where you're going with that question.

[okitactless]

[?????]

HOW CAN YOU BE NOT USE YOURSELF???

[That made more sense in his head, but he's so surprised that it comes out jumbled. Whoops.]

[returnedfromtheline]

[He thinks he knows what you meant. But for English, Yasusada:]

Try typing that one more time?

[okitactless]

[Right.

Take two!]

IF YOU ARE SWORDS THEN HOW COME YOU DON"T KNOW HOW TO USE SWORDS???

[returnedfromtheline]

Probably because I'm not the one wielding the swords. I can't very well use a sword when I'm in my sword form, can I.

[But he's actually a little impressed that this guy is asking a question about that and not 'I am swords'. Perhaps him and his god have figured out the vessel thing alright.]

Besides, I have other skills to use, so I don't need to learn swordplay for myself.

[okitactless]

[HAHAHA... ha... if only things were that simple.

But no, the vessel thing makes perfect sense to Yamato. The fact that Yukine doesn't know how to wield a sword if he is a sword--or swords, rather--is what's confusing him.]

BUT IT'S WHAT YOU ARE

[Shouldn't it just be intrinsic knowledge? Isn't that how it is for himself? Ah... this is getting complicated, and not in the "air hockey has too many rules" way.]

WHAT SKILLS???

[returnedfromtheline]

[And Yukine, meanwhile, doesn't get why this guy thinks he should be able to use swords when he just turns into them. ... Whatever. He's going for the distraction here.]

Exactly. Shinki all have the skill to make a boarderline. It's very versatile and useful, so it's important that you learn how to do it.

[okitactless]

[A borderline, huh... well, if it's important and it'll make him useful to Shepard, he definitely wants to learn it as quickly as possible.]

WILL YOU TEACH ME???

[returnedfromtheline]

Yes, I'll teach you. But you better be a good student.

[Because let's face it- the whole air hockey thing didn't leave a stellar impression.
(But on the other hand, being asked to teach something- this is kinda nice.)]
