I need to spar with someone.

Floor of your choice. I'll be using my sword only - I don't waste bullets on people - and my demons will only come out if there's deadly intent, which will not end well for you so I really don't recommend it.

-Aleph

[Yeah, April has no clue what happened since she ignored his conversation with Dante, but she can tell something is up.]

Meadow floor? And I won't use my powers either.

[Text]

[alephbet]

That's fair. I can't fix my sword very easily or buy a new one.

[Text]

[technologic]

And if I ever did break it, I can repair it anyway. So I'll see you there?

[Text]

[alephbet]

I'll be down in about an hour - I think it'll take more than one spar to work this off and I should see if anyone else replies too. But you'll be first.

[Text]

[technologic]

Okay. I'll see you in around an hour then.

[Text]

[lightofhumanity]

I shall not mind sparring with you on the twenty-fifth floor. Is that alright with you?

-chaos.

[Text]

[alephbet]

Meadow as well. That's fine - I'll be ready for you in an hour and a half.

[Text]-[Action]

[lightofhumanity]

Alright then. I shall be waiting for you there in an hour and a half then. Hopefully I can help.

[And, in an hour and a half, chaos will be standing in the meadow, waiting for his friend. It had been awhile since he had done something like this..but he should still be fine. He would just have to be careful and not hurt Aleph too badly.]

[Action]

[alephbet]

[After fighting April, Aleph simply stayed on the same floor, and wandered over to chaos.] Afternoon.

[Action]

[lightofhumanity]

[chaos will nod at Aleph as he walked over.]

Good afternoon. How would you like to start?

It might not be quite what you are looking for, but I am free if you want to go hunt monsters as we've been discussing.

Otherwise, I am always up for a spar. Just name the place.

[Text]

[alephbet]

Destroying monsters is just as good as a spar if not better.

Re: [Text]

[oathshackledbird]

Excellent. I don't know what it is that has upset you, but lets make some monsters suffer for it, shall we? A good number seem to like playing hide and seek in the tower within the tower--floor 75. Shall we meet there?

[Text]

[alephbet]

I have a few challenges to take up first, but I'll be ready for a solid round of monster-hunting in... three hours.

[Text] to [Action]

[oathshackledbird]

Three hours it is then. I will meet you there.

[Three hours later, Diarmuid stands, or perhaps more accurately, perches like some great emerald hawk atop the tower within the tower watching and waiting. He's leaving the monsters be for the moment, merely tracking them and waiting for Aleph's arrival.

It won't do to thin the herd too quickly, after all.]

[egotrigger]

How about floor 57?

Text

[alephbet]

Sounds good to me. Two hours from now?

Text -> Action

[egotrigger]

Works for me.

[And he does show up in two hours precisely, a sheathed knife in his hand. He left the helmet in his room, but he's got his flight suit on.]

Action

[alephbet]

[Aleph shows up soon after. He looks like he's been bruised recently but the wounds have all healed up, and there's dried blood on his armor.

Spoilers: totally getting Diaharan after each fight.]

Did I keep you waiting?

[egotrigger]

Ah, not really. Are you all right? You look a bit... worse for wear. We can do this later if you'd like...

[notayoungkitten]

I'm intrigued.

But I shall need a spare weapon. I'm afraid I only have a gun in my possession.

[alephbet]

I have one spare sword. Are you trained with it?

[notayoungkitten]

I am no expert, but I have enough experience.

[It's been a while for her but that will just make the sparring more interesting.]

[alephbet]

Good. I'll need it back after we're done, though - I'm training a student with it.

[notayoungkitten]

That's no problem.
