[Edge puts himself on full view in the video for the sake of people who don't know him, emphasizing things such as the mask, the cloak, the weapons at his side. Though it isn't a black stealth outfit concealing his form entirely, what else could anyone call him but a ninja?]

Hello, everyone! My name is Edge, and as you've no doubt deduced, I am a ninja. More to the point, I'm a ninja willing to teach those who want to learn the techniques I have to offer. Stealth, disguise, throwing weapons, combat techniques both armed and unarmed that focus on quick and aggressive takedowns -- I'll even teach what ninjutsu I can, if I find students with the knack for it. All of these are techniques we can use in our efforts to fufill prayers, fight ayakashi, or investigate trouble in the Far Shore or the Near. Of course, you don't need to learn all of them, if you're only interested in stealth, or physical combat, or whatever suits you!

[Edge glances to the side, slightly.] This was... originally intended to be a joint effort with Ayumu. I think she would want me to continue it, though I'm not going to be able to teach everything she could have, so sorry about that.

In any case. [Putting that somber thought behind.] If you're interested, do let me know. Classes will be held at my god Saber's temple, flexible times for people who might be busy. We'll work it out once I know who's in. Hope to see you there!

[Seriously, don't ask how many takes this video required.]

[Natsuru's had conversations with Edge before, briefly, about her own training. She's always relied on her gods in combat, and her own physical training has largely focused on flexibility and elegance and control. Things that are important for dance, but only a part of the whole in a situation where you need to protect others. So with that in mind as she watches this, and hits the option to respond...]

Do you... think I could learn enough techniques without focusing too much on attacking?

[She does want to learn to defend herself and others! But if she can avoid a fight, she'd like to.]

Oh, I don't mind learning!

It's just that... you make it sound so aggressive. I'd rather focus more on avoiding fights, and protecting people...

[It's more a question of where the balance lies than whether she wants to learn at all.]
thirdbeauty: (What now?)

[personal profile] thirdbeauty 2018-10-03 03:59 am (UTC)(link)
I guess so. I just don't know if I'm comfortable with going too far...

[She's a sweet girl who doesn't like to fight too much in general, after all.]

But I can train to fight a little, maybe?
