| two. text. 4th dec. i'm standing though you're kicking me.

[meatbrained]

Hey.
Can anyone teach me to fight? Against the monsters, I mean.

( he's become quite aware, in the last couple of months, that the ability to clock another guy his age is not the same as standing up to zombies or demons. and while anyone can swing an axe in an emergency, Matt would like to be able to do something.

something more than be scared. )

Henry, Maketh, and Glacius, off the top of my head. Maketh's already teaching me to shoot but I think Henry is the one best with weapons we can find here anyway.

I can ask him if he's not too busy.

[wendigoner]

what kinds of things do you think you'll use? and learn and stuff?

[meatbrained]

Sounds like a lot of hand-to-hand stuff. Chris is gonna show me how to use a gun.

( Chris, the best equipped to kick ass. Who would have thought. )

I'd like to get in on that, if he offers.

( Not that he knows Henry, but hey, he doesn't know most of the people offering their services right now either. )

[meatbrained]

How should I know? It just happens.

( Sorry, Sans. He's a little sore about this still. )

[skelebro]

most of these sorts of things have a reason to 'em, kid.

Re: text;

I'll ask him and let you know what happens.

How have you been? I haven't seen you around the house for awhile.

( Oh.

Dammit. )

Okay. I just needed some space.

( That's the most diplomatic way he can put "I don't know how to handle going back to the place I died", really. )

[meatbrained]

Not one I've been told.

( Huff. )

[meatbrained]

( ... Stop having good arguments, Beth. )

... I get that. But I'm gonna do it anyway. I can give us all more of a chance if we're not just hiding every time something breaks into the house.

[skelebro]

and you ain't interested in figuring it out?

[edibles]

( This is why she's group mom )

Then it better fucking work.

[wendigoner]

Re: text;

[pellameno]

. . . is everything okay?

[meatbrained]

I don't wanna talk about it.

[meatbrained]

He said he picked it up from hanging around Josh.

( He wasn't there for the shotgun demonstration back on the mountain, sadly. :< )

[meatbrained]

( Damn right. )

It will. I'll make sure of it.

That and my world isn't always the safest place.

Yeah, for the time being. Are you into archery at all?

text

[meatbrained]

... You think there really might be a reason?

( Because as far as he can see right now, it's just really shitty luck. But if he could investigate, find out something.

Well. Maybe they can move somewhere safer. )

[skelebro]

i think it'd be an oversight not to look into it.

[It ain't like there's some kinda cosmic entity a tier above a god that dictates what kinda misfortunes befall you or anything.

Right?]

[meatbrained]

( Way more colourful than his own. )

I haven't tried, but I'd be willing to.

text

[meatbrained]

( But here's the thing: )

How would I go about looking into something like that?

text

[skelebro]

i'd start by asking your housemates about patterns.

[wendigoner]

of course he did. you know how our dad is.

I'd be happy to give you some pointers, if you ever decide to.
