seeking weapons @ fortitude forums

[koyo]

Hola,

I'm a Player this round and I'm looking for weapons. If you become my weapon I promise:

* All of your rights
* Three meals a day
* Hugs and kisses everyday

If you're interested, come find me at the Battle Arena. I'm heading there right now.




By the way, my name is Antonio.

I'd be interested in the first two, but you really don't need to offer the third, sir.

[koyo]

( ( Spain is just about to turn off the computer when he gets the message-- ) )

are you sure?
well, i'll see you soon then!

[ Here is Dahlia, arriving at the battle arena several minutes later, looking all shy and demure. ]

Er... Mr. Antonio?

[koyo]

( Spain smiles and turns to see who it is, )

Sí, that's me.

[traces]

[ She nods politely. ] M-my name is Dahlia. I would be very honored if you would do me the favor of accepting me as your Weapon.

[koyo]

Dahlia. Haha, and it's good to meet you too. ( Another girl, and a young one too. . . This school really should have an age limit. ) Are you positive? I don't want you to do anything you aren't ready for.

[traces]

I... I don't like the idea of having to fight. But if I can be of any help to everyone else...

[koyo]

It looks like we have to fight thought so let's help each other out.

( He holds out his hand to Dahlia, )

If you're sure, I'll make the vow. But if you change your mind later, let me know, okay?

[traces]

[ She reaches out with her hand, pauses shyly, and then pushes forward and takes Antonio's hand after all, as though she's forcing herself to be brave despite being afraid. But the look she wears on her face is one of uncertainty. ]

Y-yes, of course. You're far too kind, Mr. Antonio. Thank you so much.

[koyo]

( He closes his hand around her's, bows, )

I, Antonio, vow to protect you, Dahlia.

( And he kisses the back of her hand. )

[traces]

[ She blushes slightly. Because he's such a nice guy!

Ugh, so over the top. Is it really necessary? ]

I accept your vow. I'll do my best as your Weapon.

[koyo]

( Yes, it was completely necessary. He steps back and let's her hand go, obviously oblivious to how he might have made her feel. )

Did it work? You should have a mark now. . .

[traces]

[ She glances down at her hand... A shield has appeared there. She smiles. ] Yes, it's here! My, the Exaclan technology is very impressive, isn't it?

[There is one (1) little boy awkwardly hanging around the Arena! ...he looks kind of lost.]

[koyo]

( This book is boring. This book is boring. He can't

He's not going to finish this. This book is boring. Spain is going to look around desperately for any sort of distraction and, oh, look, how convenient. )

Are you lost, niño?

[safebox]

[What is that supposed to mean, he doesn't know Spanish. He doesn't even know what Spanish is.]

I'm fine!

[koyo]

( The most beautiful language in the world and if you want, Spain will teach you. He'll also teach you if you don't want to learn too but that's a different story. )

Are you sure? You looked a little lost. Are you looking for someone?

[safebox]

N-no. I'm new here.

[koyo]

Hmm, I think most of us are new here. ( Closing the book. ) I'm waiting for people but I can help you out until they arrive. I'm Antonio. And you?

[safebox]

...My name's Marcell.

[koyo]

It's nice to meet you. Which school are you from?

[safebox]

I'm from -- Fortitude. I think that's the name.

[koyo]

Oh? That's where I am. Jaja, I'm a teacher.

. . . Wait, did you see the message?

[safebox]

What message?

[koyo]

I was looking for a weapon! ( Wait no, Spain, step back, you're starting to sound a little to eager and excited about all of this. )That's why I'm here.
