He resents the sun most mornings even though it's good for him rise with it. ☀️
I have been searching for just such a pin board, but so far nothing has seemed like it would stick in any meaningful way. It would be helpful if I knew anything else about ships like this one, but the only ships I've been on prior to this were definitively not for leisure and had no need for things like that anyway. For a moment I thought perhaps Friday would help me spread the word but it didn't seem prudent to let her or the Captain get too clear an idea about all this.
More of a nocturnal sort, is he? 🌙🦇 I suppose you've already told him the sun won't melt him even if it does touch his bed on the odd occasion? Some people do just get so terribly fussed about this kind of thing!
[Has Jade been that person who opens the curtains directly in a sleeping somebody else's very unwilling face at ungodly early hours of the morning, before? Probably, on at least one or two occasions.....this is extremely easy to pull on inn roommates sometimes, incidentally. Guy could likely attest to this, most unfortunately.]
I fear my own experience with boats is much the same as yours. Never was much for pleasure sailing back home, even if the concept isn't an entirely unfamiliar one...the ship I knew best was a Malkuth dreadnought landship. Which was a far more impressive vessel than this one, I'd say! At the risk of being utterly biased, naturally.
Your note about Friday is indeed a wise one, however. This does make things trickier. I suppose you could always try the old-fashioned means of distributing fliers by hand instead...perhaps recruit a group to help. The dining area with the buffet setup seems to be one of the most frequently trafficked areas of this ship...
What an excellent idea! I'll have to draft something up immediately. I'm sure the rest of the ship could benefit from a little discipline and training, and Yuri can make up for his poor attendance by helping to distribute them.
Out of curiousity, what sorts of weapons do you use? I wouldn't want to only run sword drills.
There's an idea! I can already guess that Yuri is going to be positively overjoyed at this chance to redeem himself, no doubt 😊
[Rip Yuri, have fun with that.......! Anyway--]
As to weapons: I personally prefer polearms myself, and have my own spear on hand currently. [(In hand, even, more literally...but let's not split hairs here!)] I do have the sort of very basic training in other arms that they tend to impress upon you during proper initial enlistment to the military...but I never could get the hang of swords, I'll admit. My actual specialty also lies in fonic artes, truth be told. But every now and then an enemy decides they want to get too close, you know?
I've always thought a balance of physical combat skills and artes was the best way forward as well. We can run drills for both. Perhaps Rita would like to get involved. If you have your weapon, I have always wanted a closer look at how a polearm is used.
There's something to be said for covering as many bases as possible when it comes to given skillsets, isn't there? I take it you're more of a mixed practitioner yourself? It's rather rare to find swordsmen who actively set out expand their focus beyond combat artes! At least where I'm from, at any rate...
Regardless, you can most certainly have a closer look at polearm uses when the time arrives! So long as you don't get close enough to end up on the business end of the spear, naturally 😊
we comin back in here in some downtime never let this die
If I don't get close enough to the business end then what is the point of training? Training is fun, of course, but the point is to be very familiar with what to do in a deadly situation. I can take it.
