[ The audio feed begins with the sound of a muted tapping. ]

Is this on?

[ He taps it again, and a young man with spiky, black hair appears. He's peering...much too closely at his locket, but eventually he leans back, the scar on his left cheek becoming visible. For those familiar with the area, the training grounds in Caer Glaem are behind him.

Satisfied that it's on, he smiles a bit. ]


Hi. [ Awkwardly, he scratches the back of his head. ] I'm sure it's pretty obvious to those of you who've been here a while that I'm new.

I've already gotten a few different versions of what's going on here so I think I should be good in that respect.

[ Oh Zack, you sweet summer child. Moving right alone, though, he has other things to say. ]

Since it's a war we're here to fight, I'd like to know if there's anyone around who'd like to spar sometime - hand-to-hand or with weapons.

Also, if there are any places you'd recommend visiting, I'd like to know!

[ A large black head nudges him roughly, and after a soft "hey!" Zack turns briefly to pet his horse's face. A large sword becoming visible, hanging on his back before he looks back at the locket. He flashes a small, sheepish smile. ]

Any tips on riding horses would be good, too. Thanks.

You'd like to spar?

[ HEY. Hermione peers in through her locket, a small smile on her face. ]

I might be able to help with riding, too, but - I'm not a professional.

[ Hi Mr. Puppy c:

Settled on her sofa, Hermione nods her head. ]


I've been working up to sparring regularly, to make sure that I don't forget the things I've been taught. I wouldn't mind sparring, if you'd like to.

[ But he does have a point. ]

At least I can see these horses, which makes a change from some that I rode at home. It's nice to meet you, Zack - I'm Hermione.

The only advice I may offer concerning those beasts is to keep your distance.

[ Is he still mad about that time when the death hounds attacked? Yeah, he's still mad. ]

[ He'd really rather not. ]

I have found them to be mercurial beasts, easily frightened and ill-suited to battle. On few occasions did I have the displeasure of riding one before I requested of the monarchs a more reliable mount in its stead.

You should've mentioned sparring earlier. I'm pretty good with bladed sparring, unless you want a surprise or two.

[sup Zack it's your new bff. And he's just...going to eye the horse with a raised eyebrow.]

To be fair I think a lot of people did.

[Like Terra himself. Thinking and getting a breather outside had helped to clear his head. He inclines his head.]

The magic kind. I need the practice.

[Because he sucks at magic.]

If you want to know how to ride a horse, There are few here better to teach you then me! I was raised around the beasts and am more then sure I'd be able to pass what I know along without much difficulty.

It is no problem, really. As a knight, helping those in need is my duty.

[Luckily, Mordred just happened to be familiar with both. But just how that came to pass was a story for another day.]

My name is Saber, I am a knight and the only heir to the throne of my father's kingdom.

[Munch, munch, munch. Gilgamesh lounges on a couch in an opulent home, feasting on macaroons, before thinking for all of a few seconds on his sagely response.]

Don't fall off.

[This has been your daily kernel of wisdom with the King of Heroes. You're welcome.]

[personal profile] babbylon 2015-05-29 01:48 am (UTC)(link)
Well, I'm King, so mine is the only vote that counts anyway.

[Yep. Off to a great start.]

I see you're familiarizing yourself with this realm already. That's for the best.

You've worked out the best way to make friends here, I think. I've hardly met anyone here who isn't interested in a sparring partner.

[Including herself, fair's fair.]
foraneye: (Strong opinions)

[personal profile] foraneye 2015-05-30 08:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Then you're well-prepared, assuming those games ever went beyond play. I've had the opportunity to use my sword more than once since arriving here, and my opponents didn't restrict themselves to play weapons.
