week one
[After the initial introduction of the Overseers, the Champions were left to their own devices in investigating the part of the ship they have access to to their hearts' content. However, the doors that Blaze Dudely and Rox came through are locked tight and cannot be unlocked via PIP.
On Wednesday morning, the same voice that awakened them the previous morning chirps at them again from their PIPs at 7 am on the dot.
Enjoy your week, Champions.]

[ look, what she's saying is...sort of reassuring and all, but she's missing something. ]
I can't fight back. I'm one of the only people who can't.
[ why is he telling her this?
because he's worried. and she believes that much in him, so... ]

[She's not an kung-fu master, but she knows how to throw a punch and not break her hand. Not that that's really a problem anymore, but- ugh whatever.]
I can try and show ya a thing or two. We can also ask around ta see if anyone more knowledgeable would be willing ta give some pointers too.
no subject
[ it comes out quickly. ]
Don't. I don't want--look, I don't know why I told you out of all people, but I don't want anyone else knowing. People can assume all they want but I don't want people thinking I'm a bigger target than I already am, got it?

[Zombina makes the hand motion of zipping her lips.]
The offer of the basics from me is still available anytime though. In the meanwhile, ya can probably snag a knife or something from the kitchen. It doesn't take much skill ta use one of those. I suggest going for a light slash on the forehead. In a fight, people don't usually realized they've been stabbed. They just think they've been punched. 'Cause it's on yer face and ya can feel the blood, a face wound is instantly noticeable.
Sure it incapacitate 'em, but it's startling and the blood'll drip in their eyes and make it hard ta see you, allowing fer an easier escape. If ya think ya have the strength, then stab 'em in the hand. It'll hurt like a bitch, but y'aint gonna die from it.
[The more you know!]
no subject
[ it comes out quietly, but it's there. he appreciates it. really, really does. ]
A knife, huh...
[ he might just follow her advice, and he's listening closely. it's useful information. ]
Then teach me the basics. I've--I've never been put in a situation where I've had to fight before. Now, I need it more than ever.
no subject
[She's glad that he's taking her up on the offer either way. It wouldn't sit right with her ta leave him defenseless.
if you turn up dead Yuri, she hopes that you get a good few hits in.]If ya wanna start later- though we'll probs need ta make it a weekly if not regular thing anyway- I'll leave the time and location up ta you if ya wanna set meeting points or dates or somethin'. I'm up for ya just approaching me whenever ya feel like it too. I doubt I'll be doin' anything important anytime soon in this place.
[Letting him decide any meeting spots and times'll probably make him feel safer since he'll have more control over the situation, she figures.]
no subject
he's damn well gonna try.]How much room would you need? I'd say our rooms but they might be too small. I don't know, maybe the cafeteria or something would work.
no subject
Good.]A decent amount for hand-ta-hand stuff, but way less for knives. Our rooms would work for knives. As for the cafeteria, yeah, that'd totally work...
[How to put this...]
... but ya said ya don't want anyone ta know, so the cafeteria would be risky since people could easily walk-in and see. I guess there's the art room, but it's really not much better.
no subject
[ does he really want to be in a room alone with a zombie though ]
We'll try the art room.
no subject
[Combat is an artform of it's own anyway, it totally fits.]
Do ya wanna start now, or like, maybe over the weekend, or what?
no subject
I need time.
[ time to process everything that's going on. ]
no subject
[Zombina gets that. This... is a lot to take in.]
How 'bout Saturday? I'll be in the art room, just bring a knife from the kitchen with ya for knife stuff.
no subject
I'll be there.
no subject
[She'll return that nod.]
