week 2
[With the sudden pirate takeover and the sudden, tragic deaths of the crew, the second week of the Starfield Penitentiary rehabilitation project is off to a rough start. After Price's call for parlay with the pirate captain, he was not seen for the remainder of Saturday but around 10 pm it is his calm but tense voice that makes the time announcement.
Buckle in, Champions, things are about to get bumpy.]
Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday
[ooc: Don't forget to to turn in your AC for week 1 and submit your threads for the Benefactors!]

[Off he goes into the kitchen, and comes back with like... six water bottles filled up.]
How many matches are you expecting?
no subject
Hn. I would be happy with one, if the Huntress girl can find the strength. Or the King. The vampire girl has promised me a duel, as well, though I may have to track her down.
There are other fighters here as well. I would not stop them from taking advantage of this. [He gestures at the set-up] It would be a shame to have gone through all this for so little.

[He sets those bottles on a side table, before returning to the kitchen to fill up another six bottles and then deposit those on the same table.]
That's probably enough to start.

[akande do u know how ominous that sounds
either way when Oda gets back he'll be warming up, going through some basic kata. He clearly knows what he's doing with them; the form is all but flawless]
no subject
Oda takes a seat and watches Akande warm up for a while.]
You're very skilled with the form.
no subject
I [PUNCH] should hope so. Gidigbo is a specialty of mine-!
no subject
[He may not know gidigbo specifically, but he can tell someone who's skilled at the movements from someone who's relying on their extra muscle instead of properly performing the techniques.]
vague hand gesture
[...he's forty-five.]
what's a canon backstory can you eat it
That explains why you have the movements down so well.
[...he was an assassin at twelve-ish so he can totally believe Akande started practicing martial arts at five-ish.]
no subject
[Another shift. This one's a completely different style; Taekwondo. He leaps in to the air with a spin-kick, managing a slightly awkward landing with a grunt. Turns out the mats are useful, whodathunk
muttering something in Yoruba, he straightens back up and starts that particular one over.]
no subject
[...Not of his skills, though they are formidable. Just of having something to call a passion from that early on.]
no subject
...perhaps if you put in four decades of work, you could achieve it.
no subject
[Because seriously, who wouldn't be impressed?]
I meant envious that you had something to be passionate about that early.
no subject
It took you some time, didn't it.
[What with. Not finding it until he stopped being an assassin.]
no subject
[But it would have been better if he'd had something to work towards. Anything that wasn't just survival.]
no subject
If you could, what would you have had it be?
no subject
...Though that doesn't really put food on the table, so I would have had to find some other way to survive. But not as an assassin.
