Who: Coil Lenn
Broadcast: Text (and not anonymous, for once)
Action: Iskaulit, in the gym
When: Morning
[it is a rare day indeed that Coil sends out a message with his identification attached to it, but he figures it's probably hard to convince someone to fight with you when they don't know who's asking. and he takes time to write the thing up properly, like putting an ad in the paper.]
Looking for sparring partner-- hand-to-hand or melee weapons. Experienced combatants only. Iskaulit Gym.
[and he just tosses the communicator off to the side for a bit, after that. he'll return to check his messages after he's beaten the shit out of a sandbag for a while.
and whether or not they've caught his message, anyone can find him haunting the gym--either moping around like he doesn't know why he's there, or whirling a quarterstaff around and clobbering a sandbag with single-minded focus. just a combat-oriented teenager in a bad mood.]
(ooc: and for anyone who isn't really into tagging fight threads, but still wants to spar with him, we can handwave or gloss over some things.)

1/2
because, the kid fights like someone who has been trained to actually use his skills, instead of learning for self-betterment, self-defense, or any other non-vital reason. he's used to fighting things that are bigger and stronger than him; he wants to prove that he can take it, so he can get what he wants out of this fight.
which, turns out to be more than just expending energy.
once he starts to tire, he does everything he can to hide the fact. he should have paused at any point--taken a breath, slowed down--but he stubbornly refuses. so, the first sign that he's starting to really slip comes as quite a blow.]
