It doesn't look like I'm going to get in on any part of the planning, so I think I'm going to get some training done. The political side of things isn't something I have any experience at, nor is it something I want any part of whatsoever. So instead I'm going to make sure I'm ready to do what I can do. I'll be in the Sim Chamber if anyone wants me. If you want to join me, go ahead -- I'll actually encourage it, so that way we can work on some teamwork.

[Action]

[Shortly after his message, Ike can be found in the sim chamber. He's fighting a mix of enemies from his own world -- swordsmen, axemen, soldiers, cavaliers, heavily-armored knights, mages, beasts, birds. Sometimes he squares off against several, other times just one. He gets injured from time to time, but any time he does get injured, he pulls out a vulnerary and uses it. You are free to watch or interrupt him.]

[Lachesis watches with casual interest as she passes by the Sim Chamber, pausing for a few moments to watch unobtrusively.

...Until the point he pauses to heal himself. Her eyes will widen somewhat with surprise, and from then, she will patiently wait outside until he's finished.]

[He doesn't finish, but he does take a break. He terminates the simulation, then grabs a bottle of water.]

[Soma was going to train when he sees that Ike got there first. He watches]

(...Sheesh, he does it like that sword weighs nothing)

[Ike ends up against a group of mages. Each mage is cut down with minimal effort, so the real challenge comes from evading their magic.]

[herbrotherslove.livejournal.com]

You'll pardon me for having observed your training . . .

[She approaches slowly from the side.]

May I ask what it you were using in the chamber to treat your wounds?

[yunes-chosen.livejournal.com]

You mean the vulnerary?

[Ike pulls the bag out of his pocket.]

[soma-crucifix.livejournal.com]

[He leans, and observes how they cast their magic.]

[herbrotherslove.livejournal.com]

Yes. The vulnerary.

[Lachesis will half-reach her hand for it before deciding it was rude to take something that belonged to something else. She'll examine from a distance, instead.]

..... This is... almost exactly the type of medicine that is used in my own world. I've never seen another here - or even met anyone who uses the word 'vulnerary'.

I seem to recall thou wished to practice sword-play?

[There's a large walking talking frog watching you by the doorway.]

[yunes-chosen.livejournal.com]

[They appear to be grasping tomes, from which they draw magical power. The tomes disappear with the mages.]

[yunes-chosen.livejournal.com]

Really? You haven't?

[yunes-chosen.livejournal.com]

[Which is something Ike is highly unaccustomed to.]

...Uh. What.

[sir-froggy.livejournal.com]

Perhaps thou dost not recall? Some time ago we spoke on the subject of swordplay.

[yunes-chosen.livejournal.com]

Wha--oh. Oh! Right. Sorry.

[sir-froggy.livejournal.com]

*sigh*

Go ahead and ask. Everyone does eventually.

[yunes-chosen.livejournal.com]

I'm really sorry. Father tried to drill manners into me, but sometimes I still slip up. If you're uncomfortable, I won't ask.

[soma-crucifix.livejournal.com]

(Are they bound to the user, or is this the simulation's limitations? He's pretty good either way)

[yunes-chosen.livejournal.com]

[This gets into "rationalizing game mechanics" territory, so we'll handwave it off. Ike ends his training soon enough for a break.]

[sir-froggy.livejournal.com]

The short version of the tale is "A wizard did it."

'Tis a chapter of my life I do not allow myself to dwell on more than is needed. I came here for practice.

[He has a blunted practice sword with him.]

[yunes-chosen.livejournal.com]

Sure. I'm game. Just let me get my trainer out of my bag here and I'll be set.

[sir-froggy.livejournal.com]

[He wait patiently for Ike to get ready, then salutes him with his blade when Ike is prepared.]

engarde.

I'm not really good at politics, either. I know that's not a good thing in my case, but I've just never gotten the chance.

Teamwork?

[soma-crucifix.livejournal.com]

Nice work, Ike.

[yunes-chosen.livejournal.com]

[Ike does likewise, then dashes in and launches a downward slash. The sword is light, but there's still quite a bit of force behind the strike.]

[yunes-chosen.livejournal.com]

If we storm the base, we're going to need to know how to work as a team.
