Third Floor Common Room, Monday Evening

[lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com]

Dawn was stretched out on one of the couches and flipping through channels.

"Oooh, sharks."

After a few minutes, she was feeling a bit hungry, so she got up to make herself a sandwich. Any resemblance between the song she was humming and the Teeth theme song was purely coincidental.

"He doesn't seem to have much backbone, even if he brags a lot. I'm supposed to have sex spar with him tomorrow, I think."

[nadiathesaint]

"He won't be much of a challenge."

[walter-n-wires.livejournal.com]

Walter cocked his head. "Do you want to meet up afterwards. I'll use him as a warmup. I'd like to see what you've learned."

[nadiathesaint]

Nadia nodded. "Sure. No wires from you, though. You'd be able to take me out too quickly."

[walter-n-wires.livejournal.com]

"Wires for sparring is cheating."

[nadiathesaint]

Nadia nodded. "Got to give the other person a fair chance. You're too good with those things."

She didn't mention the cut on her shoulder. It was small enough that she didn't feel she had to.

"Sparring is for other skills anyway," Walter said, then smiled, looking eager. "Sakurazaki has some sword technique I want to spar with wires against. It should be fun."

[nadiathesaint]

"If you get to do it, let me know? I'd like to watch."

[walter-n-wires.livejournal.com]

Walter nodded. "I'll call you when she and I finally are in the salle at the same time to try it out. She did say that it's a dangerous technique when other are around."

[nadiathesaint]

"I'm careful."

[walter-n-wires.livejournal.com]

That was debatable, but that was a debate for another time. "I'll leave it to her. I know my limits. I don't know hers. She said something about using her sword to create wind."

[nadiathesaint]

"She waves it around like a fan?"

[walter-n-wires.livejournal.com]

Walter shook his head. "From what she says, it's much more impressive than that. Something about needing a stone wall to protect people."

[nadiathesaint]

"Oh. She's one of the magic users, then."

[walter-n-wires.livejournal.com]

"It sounds that way," Walter said, nodding. "It should be fun. I want to get back up to snuff with my wires before I face her."

[nadiathesaint]

"I understand. Wish there was something I could do to help with that."

[walter-n-wires.livejournal.com]

"It's alright. I get more practice than you'd expect just going through my day. It's been a week since I got the lens for my off eye, and only three without practice."

[nadiathesaint]

"I'm glad to hear that."

[walter-n-wires.livejournal.com]

"Do you want to do something? Fun, I mean? Where we smile and laugh and don't dwell on things for a while."

[nadiathesaint]

"Yes," said Nadia, with rather a lot of conviction. "Any ideas?"

[walter-n-wires.livejournal.com]

"We were going to make a squirrel as a friend for Anna. From what I've seen of the weather, this Englishman is not going to go out during the day to do it."

[nadiathesaint]

"Honestly, the Argentine doesn't much want to go out during the day right now. I have tomorrow free, we could go look for stuff tonight?"

[walter-n-wires.livejournal.com]

"I like the way you think," Walter said, refusing any tinge of sadness to that. "So tomorrow we try to hit each other and then build a squirrel together? Sometimes life borders on perfect."

He grinned over at her. "We just need to get some kissing and some handcuffs into the mix."

[nadiathesaint]

"That could be arranged. Um, not at the hotel, though. I think Mr. Kent is on to Elena and Mario."

[walter-n-wires.livejournal.com]

"That's a pity, I like the rooms there and it's a bit hot for camping."
