video

[When the video kicks in, Maggie can be found with the Gym in the background. Her device is perched in her lap as she addresses the network.]

I've been here a while, but I don't think I've seen anyone offering lessons for a long time. I'm not too bad with throwing knives or hand to hand if anyone wants to learn or wants someone to practice with. It's always good to keep sharp, right?

[Maggie looks like she's ready to go already, her hair pulled back and gloves on her hands.]

Anyway - for anyone who doesn't know me, I'm Maggie. I'll be in the Gym if someone's lookin' to blow off some steam.

Closed to Glenn - on the SS Goldstone

[With the ships drifting, there really isn't much of a chance to take a shuttle out and find somewhere to explore. This leaves things up to improvisation as Maggie takes over a small corner of their spacious Cargo Bay, setting out a blanket and a makeshift picnic basket. It wasn't much but it was something.

Maggie had a plate of food in her lap and a fork in her hand. It wasn't the fun world exploration she would have liked, but it was something. The last planet hadn't exactly been that spectacular, but hopefully the next would make up for it. No matter the location, she was just glad to see it with her husband. Speaking of, she can't help but look up at him, a small smile on her face as she enjoys her food.]

I know a lot of this is rations and synthetic stuff, but it's not too bad, right?

Gym - open

[It was always good to blow off some steam once in a while and Maggie is no exception. She can be found practicing getting in a few punches and kicks on some training equipment, her focus completely on beating on the piece of equipment in front of her that jostled every so often from the force of her blows. Anyone looking to train with her was welcome, of course.

There wasn't too much to do during drifting like this, but this was enough to take up her time. Keeping busy, keeping fit, was important. Once she was done wailing on the equipment, Maggie would be stopping for a stretch, seated on a mat with her legs stretched in front of her as she did so.]

[Hux was already in the gym practicing some of the styles that Ulaz was teaching him and keeping up with what he already knew. He barely survived the Galara's training and knew he really need to spend more time training to stay fit and keep up.

From the corner of his eye he watched the other train as well. He wasn't one to start small talk and had a hard time deciding to approach her or not. He did nod in her direction to indicate he was aware of her presence.]

[Maggie was no stranger to unfamiliar faces popping up in the fleet. She had been here so long and still felt like she hardly knew anyone. It wasn't the same as back home, where this band of strangers had somehow come together and made a family.

When the man nearest her nods, upon making eye contact, Maggie decides to break the ice.]

What's that you're doing? I don't think I've seen anything like it.

[The fighting, the stances, whatever it is he's practicing. She's only versed in knife throwing and having a mean right hook.]

It's okay I'm superlate in my response as well.

[tiedonastring]

These particular stances were taught to me by someone else among the fleet. He was helping me improve in my combat skills.

[Hux quietly explained as he continued his practice. He only stopped when he made the offer to Maggie. While it was good to practice, it was always better to have a partner.]

I saw that you were practicing a variation as well. Would you like a partner to train against?

[youdontneedapictureofme]

Sure. Normally it's just the dummies that I hit - or sand bags. A real person would be a nice change.

[Maggie smiles and gives a wave of her hand to indicate he can start whenever. She has her feet planted and her fists up.]

[tiedonastring]

What's your typical style that you fight with?

[youdontneedapictureofme]

I don't really... have a style. Just basic self defense. My experience fighting isn't a typical one by any means.

[tiedonastring]

Right, then let's see what your basic self defense is and work from there.

[Hux then moved into a defensive pose preparing to see what her moves will be.]
