Who: Uchiha Sasuke+YOU
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: SS Huntress
When: Jan. 31

A few things.

There are a good number of fighters here or people otherwise trained in combat. I'm interested in observing people's abilities or training, or at least discussing what they can do. Spars could also be arranged if you want some exercise.

Secondly, I'll take recommendations for good literature available around here.

Finally, if you know how to knit or crochet then I'll offer you up to ten credits to watch you create something.

[ Yeah, this isn't weird. For anyone interested in action he'll be holed up in his room on the Huntress! ]

[ All the same he watches, copying their technique even in this with that steady stare. ]

I see. At least I know that it's possible. I'll perfect my own version of it.

[ That is...probably one of the weirdest things they've ever heard. ]

Okay, you do that.

[ The lack of questioning helps, really, and he falls silent in his focus as they slowly but surely add to that knitted design. The fingers of his right hand twitch in a perfect mockery of their movements, too, his left strangely immobile. ]

That's enough for me to understand. [ suddenly ]

[ They pause, faltering in their movements and looking over at Sasuke in some sort of disbelief. ]

Seriously? That's it?

You were expecting more?

If you mean "were you expecting me to watch for more than five minutes," yeah?

[ They aren't complaining, it's just weird. ]

I've copied what you've done and identified all the present patterns in it. The only thing I haven't seen is how to start or finish a project, but I can research that separately.

[ Slowly: ]

Okay, then. You...do that.

[ Back to normal knitting, then. ]

...

You look like you're in poor physical condition. Is that through a lack of personal maintenance or are you ill? [ How direct... and rude... ]

[ They are being very good and not going for the eyes, Sasuke is lucky.

Well, no, he could probably take Chara in a fight. ]

If I wanted your opinion, I would've asked.

[ He will defend his eyes above all else; watch yourself. ]

If I wanted you to tell me you didn't want my opinion, I would've given you an opinion in the first place. But I didn't. I stated a fact and asked a question.

[ :I ]

Why do you care, anyway?

[ Seriously, Sasuke. Do you have any social skills? Not that Chara does, but DO YOU? ]

[ No. The answer is no. ]

That's irrelevant to your ability to answer my question. I'll be more inclined to give you an answer once I've had mine.

This is just how I look. Sorry that I'm not up to your high standards.

[ They don't sound sorry in the least. ]

It's kind of hard to keep up with trends when you're dead, anyway.

[ That actually gets him to pause, looking them over a second time. ]

... I didn't realize that that was the case. You were resurrected when you were brought here?

[ He will find that they look...alive. ]

That, or I'm the world's most solid ghost.

[ He's seen some very convincing dead people I'm js. ]

Are there any marked differences between how you exist here and how you existed when you were alive? Physically.

Nope, I'm as healthy as a horse. One who exercises regularly.

[ OKAY MAYBE NOT THAT HEALTHY. ]

...

You're obviously not even remotely that healthy. [ with a helpful point, yeah, thanks ] Healthy horses aren't underweight and sallow.
