17th Combo - [Video]

[redcladidealist]

There! I-

[Locked from Eridan]

-did it! Good. That'll keep him from listening in on this. Thanks, Genis. I owe you one.

[Yup, somebody begged his best friend to show him how to lock. That done, he turns his attention on the Dreamberry - and Somarium in general by extension. His expression is very serious, and perhaps a little chagrined.]

Hey, everyone. I... kind of need some help. I need to get stronger, so I need to train, but I also need help learning how to fight magic users. [He makes a face.] Especially magic users that can fly.

[No, he's not talking about anyone in specific. What makes you think that?]

Does anyone want to spar? Or have any advice?

...it just doesn't seem right. There should be a way to save every soul.

[Lloyd shakes his head.]

I'm glad I don't live in your world.

[ action ]

[soulsymmetrical]

I understand your sentiment, and perhaps it is for the best that you do not. There are still even more threats that I haven't even begun to tell, and we are currently in a war. [and it's clear on his face that he would rather be there helping rather than be stuck here.]

[ action ]

[redcladidealist]

I wish there was something I could do. I guess all I can say is good luck.

[ action ]

[soulsymmetrical]

[there's just a small sigh and a shake of the head.]

It's all right, but thank you.

[ action ]

[redcladidealist]

[Lloyd nods, but there isn't anything he can really say to that. After a moment, he stretches his arm, deciding to focus on something else.]

It's starting to feel better now. I should probably take it easy for a while longer, though.

[ action ]

[soulsymmetrical]

That may be for the best.

[and with that, Kid stretches out his arms so that the guns can disappear into the palms of his hands in a stream of black energy.]

I hope this helped you some.

[ action ]

[redcladidealist]

[Lloyd smiles.]

Don't worry. I think it really did. It gave me a lot to think about, and a better idea about what I need to work on. Thanks, Kid. I owe you one.

[Man, that is still so cool to watch weapons disappear like that.]

[ action ]

[soulsymmetrical]

[a grin.]

No problem. If you ever need more practice, I'd be happy to help. I benefit from the practice as well. It's not too often that I fight against a swordsman, let alone one who uses two swords.

[ action ]

[redcladidealist]

[Lloyd grins, taking the compliment at face value and not looking at it any deeper than that.]

I'll keep that in mind. I might take you up on it, too, after I've worked on my speed a bit. I really need to be able to form Guardian faster. Those bullets are really fast!

[He lifts his hand, giving Kid a short wave.]

So, see you later?

[ action ]

[soulsymmetrical]

Of course. Later. [and gives a way before going his own way.]
