second solo mission

[hellofist]

Who: Cassandra Cain and YOU!!
Broadcast: fleetwide
Action: the planet yo
When: pre-dragon excitement

So, uh... month's almost over. We'll leave soon. There's lots of... weapons for sale, here. Thought I'd offer lessons, if people... want to learn new skills. If you bought something, or have something... you want to buy, can help you learn it.

Last chance, before we go, to... get new things. Should take advantage, while you can. Waiting by job board. Can teach anything, so just... bring your weapon, and we'll start.

Can teach hand to hand, too. If that's... more your style.

Okay, That's all.

[Private to Stephanie Brown.]

[Or almost all. There's one more thing to say.]

You should come. Even if there's nothing... you want to learn. Want to see you.

[As tempted as she is to nod to answer, Cass chooses speech instead.

That doesn't happen often.]

Yes. It's a... special skill, sort of. [Nowhere near that pleasant, but sometimes it's best to give the explanation that requires the least amount of actual explaining. This isn't about her, it's about him.] You can test, if you want. I just have to... see your body, to know your meaning.

[he's skeptical--that much would be obvious to anyone. but he's also curious enough to give it a shot.

questioningly, he gestures between the two of them, and then demonstrates a mock-ready pose. not anything genuinely aggressive, of course. just something that would be used in a sparring match.]

[hellofist]

[She smiles at him, incredibly pleased that that's where this is going.]

I'm on the planet. Can come here, or I can... go to you. For sparring.

[mortalcoil]

[he doesn't smile, because he never does. but especially with someone who can read his little shifts of expression so well, the general lightening-up that falls over his face has the same effect. he is very pleased.

and since he doesn't feel like bringing a visitor back to his weird little den of a ship yet, he just nods.

he'll meet her down there right away.]
