Historically, they're wild cards who threatened pre-established order. [It comes out sounding like a quote.] ... Back a long time ago, I mean. They were pretty much a symbol of death.
It doesn't teach you much... but if that's all you can find, it keeps you good and ready for the real fights.
Gotta say, the practice ones aren't nearly as... [Okay that would sound kinda wrong.] ...good. It was a damned lot easier to find real ones back where I come from.
The gym is-is--is a good place to keep in shape. They have a running track. It's, uhm, it's-it's-it's on deck 3. And there's a-a--a pool on...well. No, there's pools on deck 3 and 15, but, uh, 15 is a bunch of caves. It's really...it--it's really beautiful down there? In a...serene way.
That's really where they belong. I'm sure they caused less trouble back in the day.
What's Monty Python again? Can't say I've heard that one before.
[And he's quiet, just listening to Herz go on about the gym. No one else really described it.]
Caves... I've been in a couple of those before. They were beautiful, what I could see of them anyway. I didn't really have time to stick around and explore though.
...do--d-do you like strange comedy? Like...well, just odd, uhm, odd jokes that fly in out of nowhere? Monty Python is a lot like that.
I'm sure the library would have it. It, uh, it being 'Monty Python and the Holy Grail'. It's got the Black Knight in it, uh, b-but--but it's silly. Honest.
I-I haven't, uh, I haven't seen it in a while. I--I-I wouldn't--I wouldn't mind watching it with you?
'Seen?' Nah, it doesn't sound familiar... oh, is it some kind of TV thing? I haven't watched one of those since I was a little kid.
Uh... [He laughs.] I'd probably have to see it. Sounds pretty funny though.
[He's making shifty eyes at watching anything with Black Knights in it, but maybe he'll get a laugh out of it. And he can vaguely remember loving tv back when he was seven or eight.]
Okay sure, I'd like that. If you can even find it around here...?

[Laughing a little.] Sounds like I want a serious fight, when you put it like that.

Fightin' for fun is a waste of fuckin' time. What's that teach you? You either fight for real'n learn or you're just playing.

It is not so nice, but it is home, yes? It is all I know.

I'm not used to that. The 'home,' part... I didn't really stay in one place for long. Is it really different from here?

Are there 'guilds' called that where you come from?

And Monty Python. Aheh.
