So I think we have punching pretty well taken care of, but does anyone have advice on how to buy a decent sword?


Asides from just like, go to the market and find one.

That sounds INCREDIBLY dramatic. What kind of life have you lived?

[She does not think her luck is anywhere near that good.]

[transfusionem]

Well, I'm not in that contract class, so chances are...pretty slim, I'd say. I'd also probably pick the wrong daemon to ask.

[transfusionem]

I'm glad you think so highly of me. ♥

[transfusionem]

You don't have to be such a Negative Nancy.

It'll be fine!

[You stop that.]

[eudaimonikos]

You know half the faculty are daemons?
Although there are good and bad choices there.

[He doesn't necessarily think ALL his fellows are above stealing a student's soul.]

[heromedal]

Yes, that's what I'm saying.

Unless we do a terrible job at it.

[transfusionem]

So I've heard, but that doesn't mean all of them will get me a sword that's any good.

[Or, you know, that whole soul thing.]

[transfusionem]

We're not going to do a terrible job at it.

[eudaimonikos]

That's what the contracts class is for.

What you should really do is just go to the Forge. Learn some runecrafting if you want it to be magical.

[transfusionem]

I'll see if I can get in next quarter.

So you're saying I should make this a DIY project? Get the most perfect, custom sword?

[eudaimonikos]

I was thinking more commissioning someone at the Forge, but if you have the ability to make one yourself, that's what I would do.

[but then, he's pretty particular about a lot of things]

[CALM DOWN HEART, PUTTING CUTESY SHIT IN TEXTS IS JUST A THING GIRLS DO, SHE DOESN'T MEAN ANYTHING BY IT

thank fucking god this is text so no one will know his shame of just how pink his face got there...he's just...gonna read about runes. not so he can try to look smart and impressive or anything. no way.]

[transfusionem]

I might as well learn how to do it myself, I think. You never know what's going to come in handy.

[heromedal]

Let's compromise and say we'll do our best.

[ Their best may be horrible. Look at these idiots.

They're actually having Spring Break. God. Everyone is going to die and when they do it will be because he couldn't save them. ]

[transfusionem]

Seems fair enough.

[Their best is going to be just fine - there's enough of them there they can make it happen.]

[eudaimonikos]

Should be interesting. Swordsmithing really gave humanity a boost.

[marmoron]

it was. might have to look into alchemy class next year
what kind of sword were you practicing with?

[ohgoodgrief]

Oh, this was my father. He made a lot of money in investments and stuff. He turned around and bought a lot of art.

Anyways, long story short, that art was all counterfeit. It was kind of hilarious, in retrospect?

[transfusionem]

You could say it really gave us an edge.

[transfusionem]

Sounds like it'd be fun!

And I think it was just supposed to be most like a basic short sword. It definitely wasn't anything fancy.

[eudaimonikos]

It wasn't all on your end. The increase in warfare really gave us a lot more souls to steel.

[marmoron]

gotcha
you need help with some basics or do you have that all squared up?

[transfusionem]

Oh, wow. That's really embarrassing.

Definitely makes it seem like a lesson to be learned, though.

[transfusionem]

Everyone gets edges, then. I never would have thought of it that way, but I guess it makes sense.

[transfusionem]

Well, I'm not going to turn down more help. I could, but that would just be stupid. I don't think I'm that terrible, though?
