( open ) practice makes perfect

Who: Jim Kirk & YOU!
What: Jim wants to learn how to wield a sword (and some other weapons)
When: Now-ish
Where: Temjask arena
Rating: PG-13 for possible mild violence, fighting and minor injuries


While not unfamiliar with using weapons, it's fair to say that Jim's well out of his depth here. Barring the use of magic, there's nothing even remotely resembling energy weapons, and even projectile weapons are nonexistent. He's checked out what's on offer but some of them he doesn't even recognize, and those that he does...

Well, he can't really remember ever holding a sword in his life, for instance. But he's definitely curious. He goes to the arena to train, keep his body in shape and possibly look for someone willing to spar with him, and after he's worked up some sweat, he heads out to where all those weapons are on display, looking over the selection with interest.

He picks up a sword at one point, a smaller and lighter-looking one, but not knowing what to do with it, he'll put it back down unless someone approaches or cuts in. He also walks around the training grounds, watching others use those same weapons, admiring from a safe distance at how skilled they are.

A more elaborate or showy move will no doubt get an impressed sound from him, and he tips his head at them. "That was brilliant. You're really good."

Not that he'd know the first thing, it just looked impressive.

How perfect, to be quite honest. He's easy, Jim's easy, the agreement toward his shower offer is – to no one's surprise – easy. Just the way Klaus likes it.

Leading them all the way back to his godhaus doesn't take nearly as long as he'd been anticipating, either. Whenever they finally reach their destination, he holds Jim's arm secure the whole way, only lets go once he's led them inside but the moment he does, he's not wasting any time pivoting and stepping right up into the other man's personal space.

“So,” Klaus begins, easing his coat off his shoulders, shimmying it down his arms while he walks backward, “what're you feeling? Hard and fast or slow and steady?”
