Who: Manji and you
Broadcast: Yes
Action: On the planet
When: Right now!

[One afternoon Manji opens up his communicator.] Kogarasumaru! [He speaks with confidence that he probably shouldn't have.] You remember our fight, right? Well, I'm ready if you are. Shall I meet you at your dojo or somewhere on this junk of a planet? [Thanks to this thread Manji has a fight to pick. He could just call Kogarasumaru out privately, but he hasn't figured out how to do that just yet.]

Action: Junker Racing

[You know what else Manji can do that's really dumb? Try driving a car in a junker race with one arm. How hard can driving a car be when the most advance transportation you've ever driven was a horse?

And-- opps, yup. He's just crashed. In a spectacular fashion. Good thing he's immortal? Still, he may need a hand out of that wreckage.]

Good, I look forward to it. [He really does look forward to someone being able to beat him] And you aren't bad yourself.

Thanks. Although next time don't go easy on me just 'cause I only have the one arm. I can take it.

But I like your blade. That is a very interesting blade. How does it change shape like that? Is it springs or somethin'?

I won't.

[Ulaz shows him the blade, making sure to keep a grip on it] It is luxite, an interesting element in our world. It reacts to our nature as Galra and when we have learned how our particular blade works, we can change it at will.

[As a demonstration, Ulaz's blade collapses to the size of a dagger only moments later increasing in size and changing shape again]

[Manji doesn't even try to hide how impressed he looks as he watches the blade change in size and shape. He is very impressed! But there is one thing that's bugging him.] So, I guess it only works for Galra blood or somethin' like that, huh?

[Not that he was really going to steal it. You just never know who's going to get killed one day or sent home. Why not treat yourself to a new weapon if that happens?]

Yes. Only someone with Galra blood can use it to its full potential.

[It was still a useful dagger not converted, but it would never be anything more to someone who wasn't at least part Galra]

Luxite is a very interesting material.

That's disappointing. [For him.] Wish I had a blade like that one. Certainly would come in handy now and then.

Not disappointing for me. [It ensures thieves can't use it to its potential. Even other Blade of Marmora members can't use his sword] It does. Of course I only know of luxite changing its shape, but never for a non-Galra. Doesn't mean there aren't others.

Maybe we'll come across some eventually. You let me know if you hear about something like that which works for humans.

[But he was tired. So very tired now.] Thank for the fight. I think I'm going to go wash up.

If I hear about something that works for humans, I will inform you of it. And I would wish to see it in action.

Of course. And thank you as well.

Heh. Anytime.

[Manji is going to go back to where he's been staying and sleep. For like... a week.]
