[ Damn you html, you failed me for the last time. ]

Yes, but nothing special, I'm afraid. I'm not fond of blasters and my weapon of choice is nowhere to be found.

[avaricious]

I'd say I feel your pain, but I have the only weapons I need. [He won't go showing off just yet, but he does tighten one of his fists.] What's your usual?

[beardstrokes]

Something known as a lightsaber. We were rarely parted.

[avaricious]

A sword, huh? Guess you got that in common with this guy. [He jabs a thumb at his chest to indicate Ling.] I've always been a more up and personal kind of guy myself.

[beardstrokes]

This kind of sword was rather invaluable. It could help with almost all kinds of combat. Blaster fire was never a problem with my light saber.

[ He misses it. A lot. ]

[avaricious]

Well it's your lucky day, then. See, I happen to know a guy who could put you together a sword - no problem at all. Just as long as you've got the scrap metal first.

[Because while Alphonse isn't making that portal to get home, he's really only good for making shit for Greed to give to other people.]

[beardstrokes]

I'm afraid it cannot be made that easily. It requires a certain crystal that isn't found just anywhere and the blade is infused, concentrated light.

[avaricious]

... what's that again? Crystals? Light?

[The hell kind of sword is that?]

[beardstrokes]

Think of it as a beam of light that can cut down almost anything.

[avaricious]

Is that right? Sounds like a handy weapon. Can't say I've ever seen anything like that, though. A stick really seems like a step down from that.

[beardstrokes]

It is, but it'll have to do. I rather not get a sword and accidentally stab someone with it.

[avaricious]

You could always try one against me. I'm not so easy to cut as others are.

[And hell. It'd be something to do.]

[beardstrokes]

Now that is a tempting offer. I'll have to consider it sometime. As it is, I'm already due for a spar with Undyne.

[avaricious]

You really want to duel her? If you lose, I have a feeling we're gonna be having Obi-Wan-kabobs for the next month.

[beardstrokes]

It's not a duel. Just a spar. Besides, everyone needs a good beat down now and then. It keeps us humble.

[ Plus, he's feeling a little masochistic. ]

[avaricious]

Not that I don't like the idea of my crew beating the shit out of each other - but you sure you don't want me there to moderate? Just to make sure both of ya leave with the same number of parts you started with.

[Yes, it may seem faint and hidden - but there's actual concern for his people there.]

[beardstrokes]

[ Aww. ]

Well, it certainly can't hurt.

[avaricious]

Name a time and place and I'll be glad to moderate. I do prefer a clean fight.

[Also he doesn't approve of fighting women. If Obi-Wan gets too zealous he may have to intervene because you know... Undyne is technically a woman.]

[beardstrokes]

I'll be in touch.
