Tournament talk while at work

[Video or Action at Golden Rod City Inn]

Did anyone happen to see the posters that have been put up around town advertising the Johto Fighting Tournament? I notice it says you are allowed to use weapons in this competition. I wonder what kinds of weapons people will have. I was under the impression that all weapons were illegal here?

[It never hurts

There's a fighting tournament?

[video]

[unyieldingwill]

There is.

[Eagle takes a moment to focus the camera on one of the posters that had been posted in the lobby of the inn. ]

Are you interested in something like that?

[video]

[conflictedrebel]

[he blinks as he looks at the poster.] Huh... Yeah, maybe. I wonder what kind of weapons they'd allow though...

[video]

[unyieldingwill]

I was curious about that as well. I assume they will be non-lethal since this is a friendly competition. Have you ever even seen any weapons in Johto? The only thing I have seen is that survival knife...

[Eagle seems quiet pleased with himself. ]

I am a soldier Bakura, something like this is very interesting to me.

[But, he can understand the concern so… ]

Don’t worry. I will be careful.

[Video]

[unyieldingwill]

[He did have to try, even if just asking some one not to worry doesn’t work. ]

That’s because you are a good friend.

[A very common thing for people to forget. Eagle really doesn’t seem the type to be a strong fighter, but he definitely can be formidable when he sets his will toward a goal. ]

From what I understand they aren’t allowing any really dangerous weapons. At most maybe a few bruises and that is easy enough to deal with.

[Down playing the risk of danger for Bakura’s sake. ]

I did! I kind of can't wait for it. It makes me glad I've been keeping in shape by training with my team. [Ritz looks sort of ruffled, and she has a pretty big bandage on the upper part of one arm.]

[unyieldingwill]

[Injured? ]

Should you really be trying to fight if you are already hurt?

[Video]

[usedfeint]

It's just a scratch! Well, okay, not a 'scratch' but I should be fine. Brenda just didn't completely pull a blow that I didn't manage to dodge. I've gone into fights in a lot worse shape than this, it's kinda what I used to do. The world I was in before this had me fighting monsters to keep food on my table, so... [She gets wounds like that occasionally. And yeah, she is pretty much fine.]

[Video]

[unyieldingwill]

You are very determined.

[He is impressed… but cheeky. He can‘t resist teasing her.]

It’s just too bad that determination won’t be enough to win the competition.

[He intends to win it! Ha! Just a bit of friendly rivalry. ^^]

[Gulp!]

Ah..Eagle.. will you get mad at me if I ask you to not fight?

[Video]

[unyieldingwill]

No, I wouldn’t get mad about that. You are just worried I might get hurt, aren’t you?

[Video]

[cristal_promise]

[A sad stare and a small nod]

I guess I still have problems with people fighting each other...[Since that got her killed in the first place]

I'm really asking you

[Video]

[unyieldingwill]

Really asking?

[Now he feels bad that she will have a reason to be disappointed in him again. ]

It is just a friendly competition. It isn’t like an actual battle, nothing really terrible will happen.

[harbringersoul]

Is violence now encouraged?

[voice;]

[unyieldingwill]

It seems so, at least for this tournament. It should make for an fascinating change of pace.

Do you have any interest in a tournament of this kind?

[voice;]

[harbringersoul]

It will be interesting to watch. I wonder if PokéCenter technology will be used for the injured.

[voice;]

[unyieldingwill]

Can they use equipment base for Pokemon on people? I worked very briefly at a Pokemon Center but I never saw that happen.
I should have asked while I was there I suppose.
