[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.]

Ayumu's gone again, huh?

Maybe I should try the ninja thing! I feel like I'm kinda losing my edge lately, you know? Not getting to fight very much and all.

A ninja?!

[Zoro had been reading and watching shows about ninjas, not knowing there was one so close to him. He watches with interest, and nods.]

You can count me in! I'm a swordsman, so I'm not exactly bad at fighting, but I would like to learn anything that can help me become better.

You're going to have a whole ninja class now?

[ Minako definitely seems to be doing better than the last time they spoke. She's had a little while to get herself back together, after all, and it's good to see him doing well too - so she smiles more brightly again. ]

That means you'll have a whole group of people looking up to you! Lucky you!

I can't say stealth and disguise are my style but the rest sounds quite promising. Your techniques are not unlike a friend of mine from home so I am a bit familiar. I am certain I could pick them up quickly.

Isn't announcing yourself as a ninja pretty much the least ninja thing you could do?

[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'd be interested! I know some fighting already, and since I was made to play a ninja in Miss Hibiki's movie I finally learned what the word means and I'm even more interested.

I heard that she had disappeared, it's a shame. [ He didn't know her well, but still. He liked Ayumu well enough. ]

That was great said though! [ He's happy to still be around to hear about it, since they talked about it way back at the end of November. ] Could I sign up too?
