Let's talk and stuff [D4, EM]

[Layne Hoshin]

Using her far superior knowledge and grasp of fighting, Layne needed only the briefest of moments to turn his own hilt against him. Using basic principles of momentum, she put Daz in a hold, with the spike on his hilt coming dangerously close to piercing his throat.

"If this had been a real fight," she said, keeping the hold locked, "you'd be dead now. Impaled by that wiz spike of yours."

[Dapper Dog]

Daz frowns and says, “Well okay fine… no spikes. How did you do that?”

[Layne Hoshin]

"It's the sort of thing I can teach you," she said. "But it will take time."

[Dapper Dog]

Daz nods and says, “Then teach me, I want to be badass like you and cool like Vera Hawke. Those moves are totally wiz, did you learn that from your Master?”

[Layne Hoshin]

She ignored the remark about Vera Hawke. "No, I learned it at the academy, and from dedicating myself to the forms of lightsaber combat. I specialize in the most ancient of forms, Shii-cho. It is what all other lightsaber styles are based on."

[Dapper Dog]

"Forms?" he says with confusion.

[Layne Hoshin]

"Styles of lightsaber combat. Seven in total, and each has strengths and weaknesses. It will likely take you years of training to get merely proficient in even one of them."

[Dapper Dog]

"Whatever, I bet it only takes me a few weeks," Daz says with a smirk.

[Layne Hoshin]

"Overconfidence will get you nowhere. You have a weak basis from which to build your abilities. It will take more than weeks. And it will take hard work. If you're the sort to give up when things don't go your way after just a few weeks, then I will not teach you."

[Dapper Dog]

"I am in this to win it, so teach me," Daz says confidently.

[Layne Hoshin]

"Fine."

She finally released the hold, and grabbed the hilt out of his hand along with it as she put a short bit of distance between them.

"I have my own duties to attend to, so I can not afford to give you my full attention. But from now one we'll take some time every day to teach you the basics."

As if to emphasize, she used the force to let the hilt float through the air and back into Daz's hands.

[Dapper Dog]

Daz smirks and says, "This is going to be totally wiz."
