Learning Kilando with Ari - Lesson One "Deadly Frizbees"
Crystal Fisher, Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Jeremy "Dream"
Thomas, Kelsey "Da Bomb" Heyd.
September 4, 2000
Crystal Fisher: ((continues.))
Aristotle Hears-The-Winds: ~WS~ I will pipe in Rush Limbaugh....will that be enough distraction?
Jeremy "Dream" Thomas: *Is in the gym, naked, doing stretches*
Crystal Fisher: *she leans down to talk to the lupus*
Aristotle Hears-The-Winds: (((AFK as Crys-p stops laughing...take it up with Jer when he gets here))
Crystal Fisher: ((Crys_p isn't laughing..she's IRL blushing like mad, and trying to fiigure out just how she'd react to this.))
Crystal Fisher: *spares Jeremy a glance. Normally she'd be worried she was overreacting and looking like a git for it, but right now she just does NOT care. he knows her well enough to know the hows and whys of her.*
Jeremy "Dream" Thomas: *He looks over at her, and smiles supportively. He knows the hows and whys, and knows this isn't easy for her...but he also knows it might help some.*
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: (((BAK))
Kyle Koski: -he slowly travels the conduits from teh fountain. -
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *Ari shifts to Crinos, his body lean and wiry*~Garou~ This is the most glorious weapon we possess, yes?...........I say no...*Points a massive claw at Crystal's head*...This is a weapon, more sure than claw, tooth or Rage.....but first you must harness it, not allow ultimately petty concerns to overwhelm it...
Kyle Koski: -just a quick check about the place , then he's out-
Kelsey Heyd: *..here she comes ... Ms. America ... isn't she beautiful ... blah blah NO. Kelsey enters, headng towards the weight room. Time to pump it up..*
Kyle Koski: -he as most kin, will never really spy a gaurdian, and knocks on the door, opening it moments later-
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: (((Good lord....what have I gotten myself into? *G*))
Vendela Kristoffersen: *She heads up the last conduit stretch towards the rooms.*
Crystal Fisher: *though the Crinos is impressive, her resolve remains* I agree that your mind is your best weapon. I, however, am lacking in that particular arena of combat. I am very sorry.
Kyle Koski: ooc(me thinks all the other's are naked in the gym)
Kelsey Heyd: (( WHAA? New rule? *LOL* ))
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: ~repeats, his face impassive, his voice, for all its Crinos bass rumbling, calm~As you say....is there a radio?
Crystal Fisher: (Crys is not. though she is wearing boxer shorts, as opposed to pants.)
Kelsey Heyd: (( Who's in the gym when ... )) *..Kelsey opens the door..*
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: (((All but Crys....)))
Crystal Fisher: *any new subject will do* I don't know.
Vendela Kristoffersen: *She walks in through the door nodding to the spirits.*
Kyle Koski: -he can't misss the massive KELSEY as she walks towards the gym area. He glances around at the others, more like searching for others-
Kelsey Heyd: (( DD ))*..Where's the beef? I've got your @*!(#%$ beef right here. Kelsey is a mountain of a woman, a regular Amazon, at a towering 6' and 180 lbs. Striking blue eyes peer out from a mass of long, brown hair, always kept back in a tight braid. Not a woman you'd want to mess with. She's -pure- muscle, in the prime of her life, not an ounce of fat on her striking frame. A strong jaw and strong bones give her a heavy, primordial look that's quite intimidating. She moves with a catlike grace amid all that muscle; a trained fighter and damn proud of it. One can't help but notice the anger radiating beneath her cocky exterior. New scars, fully healed, can be seen poking out from under the collar of her shirt, as well as along the expanse of her muscular arms..*
Vendela Kristoffersen: **Quiet and immovable beauty, like the permafrost tundra, or the snowy peaks of Lyfia, she is 6' of fierce, wind sculpted woman. Her pale blue eyes seem chipped glacial ice beneath frosted lashes, her hair spun white-gold, and like all of her, kissed by Brono's fair rays. With twin braids to frame the face of Freya's own daughter, it would take only a spear and helmut to see that she has come here, with her careful steps, to spread word of Odin's return. She cannot stop the pale searching gaze, as if this Valkyrie was scouting the field a little earlier in Ragnarok's dawning. The hints of her muscles show in the way her arms fill her clothes, the way she carries herself, and her things firmly but carefully. She wears what seems almost trademark cloths: black cargo pants stuffed into similar combat boots, with a tight knit wool sweater like the swat wear, again black, thrown over the top. She has nothing of great or visible note with her.** ooc: PB 5, App 5 GET. (all in caps. *S*) So Get, so damn beautiful Get, she looks like a Legendary Warrior/Valkyrie stepped right of out Myth to the real word... save with a modern-militant dress style.
Kelsey Heyd: *..blinks. Working out in Crinos? She tilts her head slightly, brow furrowing as the gears turn..* Well ... huh.
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *His voice is as a sedative*~ If not, stubborn-One-Who-Has-Made-Her-Resolve-Plain, then find a portable, bring it here and tune it to the most obnoxious, chauvanistic egotistical ass you know of, tapes perhaps....that will serve as your distraction from learning concentration...*faces Jer, in his mind, the matter resolved*...you are obvviously untroubled by this, thus, it serves no purpose...what distracts you, Child of Gaia?
Jeremy "Dream" Thomas: *Listens to the debate between Crys and Aristotle while doing his nude streches, then turns to look at Kelsey as she enters*
Kyle Koski: -measly kin is crushed under the description drops. He thinks about working out, but with that many trueborns in there, he doesn't even bother, they get first dibs. He waves to Vendela as she comes in, in a great mood-
Kelsey Heyd: *..blinks again at Jeremy..* New rule or somethin'? I mean, workin' out naked ... wouldn't want ta get nothin' caught between the weights now ... *..chuckles..*
Jeremy "Dream" Thomas: *He thinks about that for a moment* Britney Spears is a great annoyance...as far as distraction goes, nothing distracts me from my tthen a good wrestling show.
Crystal Fisher: *She nodds at Aristotle, grateful on the higher level for him having been considerate, and on the lower ones, fostering a bit of bitterness at the both for his having put her against a wall and herself for not being able to get around it.* Okay. Do I leave to get it now, or next session?
Vendela Kristoffersen: *She spies Kyle as she notices her ShieldSister's large back walking into the gym.*
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *Ari raises his voice, shifting to Homid to be understood*~ Iam Aristotle, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom....these two have expressed interest in learning the art of kailindo...all who would learn, please join....*looks pointedly at Kyle*...all are welcome to learn...
Vendela Kristoffersen: *She smiles at Kyle.* ja, hello kyle. I vant to talk to you..
Kelsey Heyd: *..just leaning in the doorframe, grinning..* Yo Vendela. Seems like we're gettin' in touch with our Wyld side, 'ere. Wolves don't wear pants, so why should we? New motto. *..her attempt at humor for the day..*
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: ~To Crys~ Learning starts every day, hmmmm, I think the distraction of your sept mates watching will serve today....
Kelsey Heyd: *..looks over her shoulder..* Yo to you too, Kyle.
Kyle Koski: -is about to say something, then smiles- Sure enough Vendela -rhya. -he grins at kelsey's houmour, well, he'd grin at anything about now-
Kyle Koski: -he turns and grins at kelsey, moving so he can face both women- You going to wrestle again -Rhya?
Vendela Kristoffersen: *She waves at Kels.* Ja, Sister.. valk around open to the Winds.. There be no kin able to do anything but stare..
Kelsey Heyd: *..will take her focused fighting style any day over the windy arts of Kalindo. Nothing kicks wind's ass better than something as stable as a big, heavy rock..*
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *Ari looks at Jer*~ You should look into getting a TV and playing tapes of your wrestling, both for inspiration and for the distraction training.....
Crystal : *while that's not much better, it's not as bad* Okay..time out. I need to know what this distraction bit is all about. I mean. how much can I be learning if I'm too embarrased to take any of it in?
Kyle Koski: ooc(has 20 mintues, tops)
Kelsey Heyd: *..nods to Kyle..* Any chance I get, yo. Keeps me supple an' in good shape. *..pats her chest with a big fist. Thump..* Builds character.
Lime mortal Guy: [picks on you all]
Vendela Kristoffersen: *She walks over to Kyle.* The other night. Did you forget vhat you want to say? Or did you just not say it?
Kelsey Heyd: (( *..gives Mortal Guy Delerium..* ))
Kyle Koski: "I would say it builds something else -rhya, but then again, I'll keep my mouth shut - he chuckles at Vendela's joke, but focus on her now-
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: ~ The distraction is there, always...today it is as harmless as your japing sept, tomorrow it is the Spiral insulting you so his pack can circle you and slay you..*he shrugs* Tuning out one aids in seeing the true picture....
Lime mortal Guy: [[crap, forgot that! doesn't rememeber anything]]
: ((Hmmm.....))
Kelsey Heyd: *..chuckles at Kyle..* Dat too. *..glances back at Jeremy..*
Lime mortal Guy: [[forces char to get a nick, else will make her nick Fuzzy bunny]]
Jeremy "Dream" Thomas: *Nods to Ari, grinning* Sounds like a plan...I doubt there's any Swanton Bombs, DDT's, Rock Bottoms, or People's Elbows in Kailindo, but it WILL be inspiring...
: ((I don't know which one...))
Crystal : *this concept seems alien to her, but hey, he's the one teaching* okies.
Kyle Koski: -he shrugs- I just didn't say it, you were busy with a trueborn, not my place to interrupt.
Crystal : ((hey now..talk of bunnies and all that))
Kelsey Heyd: *..laughs at Jeremy. He knows what he's talking about...at least, the stuff on TV..*
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *With that, Ari turns to face any students*~ Kailindo is not about power...it is about using that power to avoid death, or, to use power against itself to make death swift, and sure....it began as a way for Garou to resolve conflict without losing more Garou....I will demonstrate...*Gestures to Kelsey*...Please, attack me...
Kyle Koski: -he can't help but smile at the conversation around, almost as rowdy as a real caern-
Kelsey Heyd: *..enters the gym, comfortable with Jeremy's sexuality..* (( *ROFL* )) *..she takes off her shirt, revealing (besides the -ripped- back) the new scars and a sports bra. She begins stretching..*
Vendela Kristoffersen: Ja, but it vas only Shadowlord. And I asked you. Vy bring up, get my attention, then not say?
Jeremy "Dream" Thomas: *Nods...so this is like Aikido. Then he may be a leg up here, having some experience with the Japanese art of defense*
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: (((Ari will use Homid stats, regardless of which form he shifts to....))
Kelsey Heyd: *..stops, and looks up at Aristotle..* At least ya asked nicely. Don't get that often. *..gets up, and moves towards him..*
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *Ari drops to Lotus, waiting for Kelsey to be ready*
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *Stands*
Kyle Koski: -he just shakes his head- Still a true born Vendela-rhya. I was raised to be respectfull, no matter my opinion. I am however sorry if you took offense at that -he grins- I only wanted to say i'm sorry for staring all the time, it must be a pain.
Charolette Lamont: *walks back in looking and feeling a little happier*
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *Ari waits until she gets to witin reaching distance, waiting to see the form of attack*
Crystal : ((BRB..dealing with kid, updating in between))
Kyle Koski: -purses his lips -hmm, not a pain, that you look good, just that you must be tired of it, bah - he throws up his hand- I mean, oh forget it. -smiling -
Kelsey Heyd: Let's not break anythin', now. And I'm talkin' 'bout this nice equipment. *..she passes a rack of weights, but doesn't even give them a glance. Suddenly, her arm snaps out and grabs a 20 lb frisbee of black death, lobbing it at Aristotle..* Catch.
Charolette Lamont: (Wishs Cry luck)
Vendela Kristoffersen: *She smiles, patting him on the shoulder.* Ja, don't be vorried to stare. I am something good to look at.
Kyle Koski: ooc(oh my god!, KELSEY!)
Crystal : *woah*
Charolette Lamont: *She smiles to everyone*
Crystal : OOC: Kelsey rules!
Kyle Koski: ooc(ducks the agg frisbee)
Vendela Kristoffersen: *She smiles over towards Kels, hoping her ShieldSister doesn't break the others.*
Charolette Lamont: *She blinks ta Kelsey her jaw dropping*
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: (((At diff 8, unexpected, twoo suxx)) *Ari shifts to Crinos in time to catch the lethal frisbee's impact with hardly a grunt*~Garou~ I actually meant to attack me yourself, not with a weapon...
Kelsey Heyd: (( *LOL* ))
Kyle Koski: -he smiles slightly, and steps a little close to Vendela - Yes. You are. -Simple as that and then around to the kitchen- Hi Charolette.
Charolette Lamont: *She stays in the door way where it seems safest* Hi Kyle.
Charolette Lamont: *She looks at the naked people, turns around and walks back to the kitchen* What a day.
Kelsey Heyd: Ya didn't specify. You gotta know those things ... yer talkin' to the Master of the Challenge, 'ere. *..laughs..* Nice catch.
Kyle Koski: ooc(they , Kelsey, Crys, Jermey and Ari are in the gym, others are not)
Kelsey Heyd: (( And is not naked! ))
Crystal : *she glances at Jer and grins a bit.* that ruled!
Kyle Koski: "It only get's worse. Has anyone seen Angelia ?"
Charolette Lamont: *Looks at Kyle and Ven and shakes her head.* How's everyone today?
Kyle Koski: ooc(last to Char)
Vendela Kristoffersen: *She smiles, patting Kyle's shoulder again. She's got no modesty about her breeding.*
-brian-: [[ she threw a car at me ~siffle~ ]]
Crystal : ((Did you deserve it?))
Vendela Kristoffersen: *She nods to Charolette, taking note of the kin as soon as she enters.*
Kyle Koski: "I "-checked his watch- "Have to go in a few" -
Kelsey Heyd: *..rolls her shoulder, shifting to Glabro. The only visible change is the increase in body mass ... and damn..* (Fair Glabro)
Charolette Lamont: *Shrugs at Kyle* The kid? Nope.
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: ((Soak 7)) *Ari grins toothily shifting to homid*~ The Warform is ideal for taking as well as giving damage....
Kelsey Heyd: (( You lived too, you little shit. ^____^ ))
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *Eyes Kelsey*~So? As they say...bring it on!
Vendela Kristoffersen: ooc: 5 min warning.
Kelsey Heyd: And da in between in good fer both. It ain't as ... obvious as a giant furry ball of death an' claws.
-brian-: [[ :op still hurt... ]]
Kelsey Heyd: Patience is also a virtue, yo. *..she laughs, beginning to circle Ari..*
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *Keeping track of her as he speaks*((has SoF, too, BTW)) ~All forms have strengths...its just a matter of finding them...
Charolette Lamont: *She opens the cupboards and takes inventort of what's in the kitchen* I think I'll bake some cookies...
Kyle Koski: "Alright. I should speak with her. - He doesn't give any other indication- I've got to get back to construction -he waves at charolette, then Kelsey and Vendela.-
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *Ari lets her circle, tracking her by sound((Per 4))*
Vendela Kristoffersen: *She nods to all, moving to the door with Kyle.* I vill valk you out..
Charolette Lamont: Later Kyle. Good day Vendela.
Kelsey Heyd: *..crouches down, ready..* (Init - 12)
Kyle Koski: -he stops, looking to VENDELA with some surprise. he waits for her to go past him, then walks behind her- Thanks. -rhya.
Vendela Kristoffersen: *She nods to Charolette and waves to Kels.* Later, Sister..
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *Ari senses her shift, the taut inhale*
Vendela Kristoffersen: *She walks Kyle out with just a little smile.*
Vendela Kristoffersen: *gone*
Charolette Lamont: *She starts pulling things out and placing them on the counter*
Kelsey Heyd: *..in his blind spot, she drops, hoping to sweep out his legs from under him. She doesn't put it all into one fell swoop (haha..) however, and prepares for the recieving end..*
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *As she rushes, Ari shifts to Lupus, dropping to her foot level and darting to her rear*
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *Face to face with Kelsey, who is trying to sweep now four legs, Ari rolls to the side and his feet*
Charolette Lamont: *Starts mixing stuff for cookies.*
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: ~WS~ The wolf has stability, as well as the advantage of size...
Kelsey Heyd: *..going along smoothly wish the missed sweep, she uses the momentum to spin around with the darting wolf, switching feet under her to snap the other foot up, hoping to catch the wolf in the jaw ... or the kneecap if he shifts..*
Crystal : *watches in silent appriciation, paying extremly close attention*
Kyle Koski: ooc(opp sweep the lupus?)
Kyle Koski: -gone-
-brian-: [[ punt the lupus? ]]
Charolette Lamont: ((LOL))
Crystal : ((Don't kick the baby))
Kelsey Heyd: (( Kick the baby! ))
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *As she uses her momentum to continue the sweep, Ari takes the moment to leap, shifting to Crinos, and landing on her*
Crystal : ((cracks))
Charolette Lamont: ((NO KICKING BABIES!!)) *She hums to herself as she mixes the chocolate chip oatmeal cookies*
Kelsey Heyd: *..her foot whiffs through the air, respecting the guy's abiltity to shift through forms with ease. But Wyvern gives her that same bonus. She grunts as she gets flattened, but grins as she begins to bench-press the Crinos..* (Str 7, + 3 with Strength of 10 Gift)
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *Ari pants*~Garou~ The use of Rage by a Kailindori is both to shift more quickly, and move faster....you must control the rage....
Kelsey Heyd: *..tries to heft Ari over her head and behind her with a growl..*
-brian-: [[ fading light strike ~nodnod~ ]]
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *Grappled, and knowing he cannot break her hold, Ari shifts to lupus, willing the rage up to move quickly, squirming out of her now empty hands, using that split-second to dance free* ((burn 2 rage))
Charolette Lamont: *She glances towards the gym now and then but stays in the kitchen and out of the way*
Crystal : *shift..quickly..with rage..ok..she's getting that. she still doesn't see why he insisted she mut be nakid.*
Kelsey Heyd: *..kippups to her feet, practically launching herself into the air..* Goin' quick-like, my friend.
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *Rolling with the fall, Ari gets to his feet*~WS~ Does anyone see why this was considered the best way for challenges to be resolved?
Kelsey Heyd: *..that's a question she doesn't have the right to answer. Let Crys take that one..*
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *Head down, Ari backs away from Kelsey, searching her body for weak points*
Angelia Caponelli: *Bounces into the bawn still amazingly giddy.*
Charolette Lamont: *Nods to Ang as she goes back to making cookies*
Crystal : *answers* No.
Kelsey Heyd: *..weak point...weak point... nope. Not physically, at least. She's damn quick, reflexes like a cat, strong as hell, and hasn't even broken a sweat yet. She remains firmly planted, like a tree..*
Angelia Caponelli: *She goes to the message board and pulls down the two messages for her grinning even broader*
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: 8Ari seems to pinpoint something on Kelsey, his wolf-grin broadens, barely*
Charolette Lamont: *Puts the tray of cookies in the oven and sets the timer*
Kelsey Heyd: *..smirks a little bit..* Yer watchin' me ... so, wha'd ya find, hmm? *..crouches down, tensing..*
Crystal : *she's going to wait until they are done with thier demonstarion to assert her opoinoin on why might does not make right.*
Crystal : *tuens a...critical eye onto Kelsey, wondering what he DID find.*
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *Ari seems to disappear((Gnosis, umbral)) then reappear behind her within a second, shifted to Hispo and uberheavy, throwing full weight on her back*
Angelia Caponelli: *She walks to the gym door and looks in*
Kelsey Heyd: *..that's one thing that she's not that adept at - Umbral travel. The Hispo's weight is heavy ... but Kelsey's a friggin' redwood. She reaches to grab Ari's scruff and lob him forward ... and hopefully across the room..*
Crystal : *and in this particular move, slowly comes to see why concentrating on yourself and being distracted by yourself can be fatal. it does not, however, to her mind, mean that one can simply break habit and mentality overnight.*
Charolette Lamont: *Walks to the couch and flicks on the tv.*
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *By now Ari has shifted again, to homid.....Kelsey's hand finds no scruff, and Ari wraps his arms around her, as well as legs, holding tight*
Angelia Caponelli: *She leans on the door frame and watches*
Kelsey Heyd: *..grunts..* I usually don't get this intimate on the first date, yo ... *o/~..no ... I don't want no scruff ... ~\o she opts for his neck instead. No big difference..*
Crystal : *she glances back and notes the younger Garou and waves at her.*
Angelia Caponelli: *Smiles to Crystal*
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *Ari seems to concentrate*~Not this time, Worthy opponent...((Falling touch, 2 suxx at diff 8))*
Kelsey Heyd: *..she erks as her weight is suddenly ... and magically ... shifted. She's got a good grip on his neck, though! She falls backwards with all of weight ... and Ari with her..*
Charolette Lamont: *Flicks through the channels*
-brian-: [[ ~realizes why his vamp lost~ :o) with strength that high you always have a hand hold ]]
Crystal : *she is grinning like a kid at Christmas, people are kicking ass for her entertainment..err, learning. She points at them, beaming at Angelia*
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: ~Damn! *Ari scrambles to avoid the falling giant, and gets caught, in Glabro, so it doesn't really hurt, but its silly*
Angelia Caponelli: *She grins at Crys and then watches*
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *Looks at Kelsey*~You're the new Master of Challenge, eh?
Kelsey Heyd: *..a nice cushioned fall. At least she didn't add an elbow to it. Squished her knuckles slightly, though..*
Kelsey Heyd: Dat would be me. *..gets up and off of Aristotle, holding her hand out to him to help him get up ... but still weary he still might try and save face..*
Crystal : *she is pleased to see that Kelsey was able to pull a clever trick. this makes it..more real to her. If Ari is not an invicable Jackie char superfighter, that means he is falliable. unperfect. if he is not perfect, she does not have to be afraid of him. if she's not afraid of living up to his perfect standard..she CAN learn from him*
Angelia Caponelli: *She smirks.* Amused.
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *Accepts the hand, smiling* ~I was, at the island.....i would learn your style, but it would be like trying to teach a fish to fly....*Points at his skinny though muscular arms*...I lack your mass...as do many...
Charolette Lamont: (the "*" shoulda been at the end)
Kelsey Heyd: *..laughs, clapping Ari on the back with her large hand..* I've seen lots of mass-challenged wrestlers in the 'circuit, yo. Yer quick, and you do what you do well. Good match, good match.
Charolette Lamont: (for Ang)
Kelsey Heyd: *..she moves to the downed frisbee of doom and replaces it neatly on the rack..*
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *The clap nearly rocks Ari to his kness again, he walks towards Crys, his face beaming, as she appears to have watched everything*~ This was to show that while we have incredible power, it can all be countered, including...*rubs his butt with a free hand*...Gifts...
Crystal : *grins at Ang, looks at them both, getting to her feet*
Angelia Caponelli: (blah back from the phone)
Kelsey Heyd: *..she retrives her shirt and pulls it on, feeling the blood move around nicely. Time for a run. Kelsey moves to the door..* Good luck, Crys. Be seein' you both again. I'm outta 'ere.
Charolette Lamont: *She brushes her hair out of her face and smirks*
Crystal : *she smiles* blessed be, Kels. you did good.
Angelia Caponelli: *She nods to the departing Kels*
Angelia Caponelli: (And the last Char post should have been Ang)
Kelsey Heyd: *..pats Crystal on the shoulder..* You too can throw 20 lb disks with the intent to hurt. *..smiles..* Thanks.
Charolette Lamont: *She gets up when the timer goes off and walks to the stove*
Crystal : *ooh, she touched her. blushes* uhm. thanks! *looks at Ari for distraction* hey..that was cool.
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *Ari watches the woman leave* ~I would not do that again without reason....wheww....*eyes dancing, he slips into Lotus and looks at Crys*...This was seen as a non-lethal way for challenges of honor to be resolved without more Garou dying at their Nation's hands.....violent?...yes...lethal?...no....is this better or worse than the old ways, and why?
Charolette Lamont: ((Thwap Crys)) *Pulls the cookies out of the oven and begins putting them on the cooking racks*
Angelia Caponelli: *She loks back to Ari and Crys studying both*
Kelsey Heyd: *..walks out, past the kitchen, drooling slightly over the smell of cookies. Restraint, Kelsey. Must not eat cookies and get fat and lazy and be a couch-bitch to some overbearing, stinky man who drinks beer and scratches himself 24-7 because he doesn't have a job and ... gah. Stop thinking Kels. Just stop thinking..* ~Gone~
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *Dismisses cool with a grin and a wave*~ You can do the same...with practice, and understanding...
Crystal : *she sits down across from Ari and gives both answers* challenges to the death deprived us of good warriors. This is a good way to resolve disputes, where both parties cannot see but a physical way of resolving conflict.
Charolette Lamont: *She smiles to Kels and leaves, lettign the cookies cool off* ~gone~
Crystal : *continues* however. It proves right the adage that the strongest is always right..and that's just not so.
Angelia Caponelli: ((LOL))
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *Nods* ~There are many tribes who would say that the physical is the only way.....but I ask you now, can you learn this? Will you learn from me? I feel I offended with my earlier suggestion....
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *Shakes his head at the last*~I would not say so...is Kelsey not obviously stronger than I? Did I not bring about my own *grins ruefully* downfall? In Kailindo, strength is less than useless....speed is important, and knowing your abilities in each form.....knowledge, not strength...
Crystal : *She glances around, it's a lot easier to talk without so many people around. she can be..more real.* You did, but it's through no real fault of your own. Had you insited that was the only way you'd teach me, I would not be learning from you. You offended, but didn't mean to..*thinks of how to put it*
Angelia Caponelli : *Still leaning in the door way watchign so quietly*
Crystal : *at last, soeaks slowly as if considering her words as she says them..trying to find a galliard-type way to make the lupus understand what it's like for her.* It's like..ok. It's like when humans blunder around in the woods. They have to go to the bathroom, and uroinate on your tree. They didn't know that was your tree. But it's still going to irk you. I am really complex, and evern Jeremy, who lives with me, understand me well but doesn't get it from my viewpoint.
-brian-: [[ I am going for food ~G~ if anyone needs me for anything just ping and I'll get to it when I get back ]]
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: ((Begs a brian for doughnuts....deliver to CA puleez))
Crystal : (( have a good lunch, bri!))
Angelia Caponelli : ((Get me a jolt bri?))
Crystal : ((pulls out jumper cables, grins at Ang..*well...))
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *Ari nods at her words*~ Sometimes shock treatment does not work for all people....we will find a way for you to focus....
Angelia Caponelli : ((LOL))
Crystal : *she grins, ruelfully* wrong shock. That one would discourage me. The music idea was a good one, however.
Angelia Caponelli : *She slips back out of the doorway as silent as she came and snags a cookie on her way out*
Angelia Caponelli : ~poof~
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: ~*S* I thought it might be.....pick something you feel you can't ignore....bring it....play it while we work....in time, it will cease to be a distraction and become as normal as a heartbeat, and its absence, even after we turn down the volume later, you will know to be missing, like the still before a predator attacks, Debbie Gibson falls silent before a test in Kailindo...
Crystal : *she glances back, seeing Ang go and rises a bit. she looks at6 Ari in horror* Debbie. Gibson...forgive me sensei..but did you eat any funny mushrooms in the woods, today?
Crystal : *and though most would take her livity to mean she didn't pay attention to what was said..there is ad definite sense that she did..*
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *Sensai...she called him Sensai! Ari burns a Willpower to keep from messing his loincloth, struggles to look confused*~Mushroom? No, why?
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *Ari smiles* ~I know that Debbie Gibson is ...on the outs? It is a joke, to illustrate something annoying but common, whose absence is an oddity....
Crystal : *she senses the visable near 'glow' that he gets from something she said and grins a bit* nevermind..it's a joke. Debbie is WAY out of style, and not my type of music.
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *Nods* ~I think that will be all theory for today.....do you have a normal training regimen? A workout?
Crystal : *ooooh, yeah* ooooh, yeah! I get what you mean..like the commercails on the TVs at WAl*Mart while I'm working! you don't even know they are there, after a while, but when they go out or something, all you can think is.."it's quiet. in here"
Crystal : *replies with such harsh honesty that one might think she was joking, but she isn't.* No..I don't. I'm lazy.
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *Ari smiles, showing his teeth for the first time* ~This is not an easy art.....it does require flexibility, speed, coordination, and discipline.....do you still want to learn?
Crystal : *she considers that* Yes. If for no other reason, than you will MAKE me not be lazy, and when you can't do that, I will.
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *Nods, rising to his feet* ~Then I think the stretching we did to begin, is your workout, to keep you flexible....each day, in the bawn, before the guardian.....and if you cannot be in the bawn, do it at your home, with only your soul as witness.....It grows late, and I must tend to a few matters.....
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *He gathers his clothes..getting dressed a a matter of expediency*......Crystal?
Crystal : *she nodds* I need to sleep before work, as well. *looks at the ground then back up* and..thanks for teaching me. Even if I end up not being able to do it or whatever..I appriciate it, ok?
Crystal : *pulling on her pants* uh..yes?
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: *Ari smiles, he knows she can do all he can, and will do more* ~softly, from the door~ It is I who thank you.....for what good is a Sensai, without the student?....Good night, She-Who-Denies-The-Skin....~said with a smile~
Aristotle Hears-the-Winds, Unfolding Coil of the Maelstrom: ~GONERZ~
Crystal : *blinks blushes, but grins. she can take that sort of ribbing, from someone she likes. she goes as well*
