I need to be trained in close combat.

I prefer sharp weapons over blunt.

I'm available at any time.

Not the best with dealing with weapons, but how do you feel about hand-to-hand combat?

By weapons do you mean shinki?

[chickshades]

the bow isnt working for you anymore?

I see you've encountered the news I had for you a little early, Niles. He's a shinki. Please take appropriate care.

[If this weren't so serious, he'd probably have to come up with a dirty joke about weapons handling, but as it is...

... well, it is (after)life or death.]

Close combat, sharp weapons
Just so happens I've managed to get me knife back just in time
If you fancy an afternoon's work I could give you a few pointers.

I see you already got offers to train in hand to hand, but if you need to spar just let me know. I could use more practice. My goddess is way more capable than me and I'd like to pull my weight.

[She won't put two and two together that this is the guy she trained with beforehand. She knows she can't train him, so she'll just cheer him on.]

I'm working on that too! I hope you find a really great teacher.

You do realize that a blunt weapon in the right hands can easily take down a sharp one, right?

[ While he knows others have offered, he's already going to be training his own shinki on this sort of thing, so it isn't as if he'd have to free up time or anything... ]

It's not a matter of what weapon you play with. [ Oh hell, what was that message Iruka had given them ages ago? ] "If you lack heaven, seek wisdom and be prepared. If you lack earth, run through the fields and seek out advantages. If you have both heaven and earth, only then can you succeed." [ Not the exact phrasing, but the gist is there. Really though, don't these people know anything? Except he forgets that not everyone grew up doing this stuff from the time they could walk. ]

You need it to be a training weapon or a shinki?

Should I make a joke or two here, or would that be too obvious?

Previous experience?
