[As per usual, Yuri's spending his morning today in the battle dome ... although, for those who've seen him in there a decent amount of times, they may notice something different. Like the fact that he seems to be using a mid-sized axe instead of a sword this time around. It even seems to be making some of his artes look and act a little differently as well.

He also has a sword leaning against the room he's using - namely the katana Luke got him for Christmas. Occasionally, during breaks in his training, he'll wander over to it and pick it up, as if thinking about something related to it, but he always ends up putting it back down again.

Feel free to interrupt his session at any point! The monsters he's fighting don't seem to be challenging him very much, to begin with.]

[Voice]

[After his training session--]

Got a bit of a question for everyone. Which do you think is better - swords, or axes?

[Filtered to Brave Vesperia: 85% Unhackable]

As for you all, I figured I should let you know that I'll be trying to do a little recruiting around the end of the month. I'm planning on doing the usual through-the-journal kind, but if anyone's got a better idea, let me know.

... Actually, if anyone's got any ideas for the guild at all, now's a good time to tell me. Especially if it'd help us stand out a little more as something other than some kind of construction group.

Can't dodge it?

It's not that. Just sometimes, it makes more sense to block than to bother trying to dodge.

[Mmm] Fightin' lurks, I need to get the head off. Ax is better for that.

And "lurks" are ...?

Lurk's a lurk.

[...] Proper's "vampire." Monsters, drink blood. Only way to dust 'em is to get wood in their heart [And lol finding real wood in Haddyn] or chop off the head. Slayer, so I gotta fight lurks a lot... ax always works well for me when I don't just got my- the scythe.

... I see. I kinda thought something like a vampire might be a little too fast for an axe, but all I know about those things come from stories. [shrug] I guess you're pretty strong, if you're able to swing something like that around against things like that.

Like I said, Slayer. Strong, fast, good at stuff.

It's not like I've got "Slayers" where I'm from, you know ... But if that's part of the job, then I guess it doesn't matter what kind of weapon you're using.

Part of it, yeah. Weapon does matter, but the strength's a plus.

In that case, I can see why you go for axes. I can't think of much else that's stronger than those.

'Xactly. Give me an ax, blaster, and some good clothes and I'm set. [...Aside from the scythe, but]

Huh. I thought you'd need some kind of special armor or something, fighting things like that. Guess not.

You know where I can get armor in a warren?

[A warren? ... He's heard the word before being used to describe parts of the lower quarter, so he's pretty sure he knows what it means. Crowded or run-down or ... whatever. Maybe both. Whatever - he's got a guess, at least.

So--]

... I guess it'd be a little tough if that's the kind of place you came from. Never mind, then.

'Xactly. Kinda hard to find a thing worth grabbing there 'less you ock it carefully.

'Ock it', huh ... Right. I'll take your word for it.

[Does this girl come with a dictionary ...]

Good, oughta. Authority, here.

Can't argue with that. Not like I know anything about where you're from.

You'd be a rare, that's sure.

A rare ... what, exactly?

...Happening. Rare thing.

... Why? I don't see anything rare about me.

[...SIGH]

'Meant if you know 'bout where I was from. Not a lotta people from Haddyn here.

... Oh. [... Man, he can barely understand half the things she's saying. She really must come from one hell of a different world, that's for sure ...] I'm ... not too surprised to hear that. I haven't heard anyone talk the way you do before. I mean, they could just be real quiet, but ...

[He trails off there. He can be pretty insensitive sometimes, but he tries not to be when it comes to this topic.]

Ring me if you do? Melaka Fray.
