[Dick sounds pretty unruffled and maybe even flippant to the casual observer, but he's actually pretty creeped. No one enjoys catching a weird person staring at them out of the corner of their eye and then just not being there when you turn to look at them.]

So, I know "the Barge is taking a turn for the creepy" is old news at this point, but... is anyone else starting to feel like someone's following them around? I know it probably just sounds paranoid, but with everything else going on, it just seems... weird. Tim, if it's you, I said I was sorry I stole your sandwich, this is taking it a bit far.

Anyway. Is anyone up for sparring? CES, gym, somewhere else, where ever. [He's bored and feeling like he's getting out of practice.]

[Warden Filter]

Literally forever ago, there was some talking about giving some self defense lessons to wardens who felt like they needed some brushing up or an intro on how to protect themselves in the event of our next Barge wide crisis situation, which is probably happening next week or something if this creepy stuff keeps up, so I'll be in the gym this afternoon and will be happy to walk you through some basic stuff.

Or, if there's anyone who just wants to spar or something, I am definitely on board for that, too.

[Private to Jim]

What's the worst thing that could happen if I got hit with a phaser on a stun setting?

[Private to Arthur]

How are your ribs doing?

[Filtered to Snape, Lupin, and Sirius]

Since we seem to be getting some of the less morally upstanding people from your world, and because I'm generally curious, I was wondering about what exactly a non witch or wizard can do to protect themselves from spells from your world besides just running like hell.

[Private to Ariadne]

Have you been up to the CES yet?

Combat, if you think you can handle it.

[He's kidding, and he walks over to the other side of the mat, taking a stance.]

Can you show me what it's like?

Mr. Grayson, in utter seriousness. The best possibly help I can provide you is this warning:

Avoid them both. Take great pains to do so. Bellatrix Lestrange is violent and dangerous, and Lucius may well feel compelled to act according to the example she sets.

Do not engage either of them unless it is absolutely necessary.

[...]

That depends on what you want me to hit you with.

Gym. Kirk gets jealous when other guys take me out.

[ALL the sarcasm.]

I understand. But I'm not going to back down if they're hurting other people, and in the event that that happens, I want to be prepared.

[Dick is just laughing.] Sounds good. Now?

Be gentle with me. I'm a babe in arms and delicate.

[Stildyne's stance is a little stiffer, a little learned-later-in-life. His feint-and-roundhouse, though, is a comfortable thing from his youth, faster than you'd think with a man his size, other arm up to guard his solar plexus.]

Well, I don't want you to kill me, but.

[She looks around, rather impressed.] Pretty cool. Almost a bit like what I can do in a dream.

I understand.

I will strive to find a solution to this dilemma, as, while I have no wish to see Muggles suffer at their hands, I can not in good conscience do anything save advocate for the restoration of their wands and abilities.

Are you an Inmate or a Warden?

I don't mind throwing spells at you so you can get a feel for them, I just want it to be clear that I'm not attacking you. My Warden doesn't exactly see me in the best light.

Gimme five minutes, I'll be there.

I'll be careful.

[Dick sidesteps quickly, ducking and rolling away from the roundhouse and throwing his own kick at the back of his knee.]

I understand. If they're ever going to learn how to interact positively with others, they need to have access to their abilities so they don't abuse them when they get them back. And they're so much a part of them, it feels cruel to keep them away.

I'll see you there. [Spam/assume?]

It's not quite as malleable, from what I understand. But it's still a nice thing to have.

I'm a warden. And don't worry, Snape knows I'm looking for a way to be better prepared in case of emergency. I can ask him about this specifically, if you want.

Either you do, in fact, understand - or you've heard this lecture before.

Unless I'm forgetting talking about this with you before, this would be the first time.

It's not me. [Not after the first day, anyway.]

Well, of course you'd say that. You're just mad you got caught.

[Why is it always the damn legs-- Stildyne wasn't expecting that level of grace and speed, even from someone more native to the art. He jerks out of the way-- graceless but takes the hit on the side of his leg and not the joint.

He's on the higher end of the Gotham-slash-Bludhaven brawler scale but his talents lie in his ability to absorb damage and get back up.

So he squares up to Grayson again and goes in for a grapple-- if the younger man can keep dodging like he's doing, Stildyne's going to take a beating.]

I had the slightest glimmer of hope that someone else aboard this moronic ship might hold the same view.

Alas.

They might.
