I've seen birds that can do magic, that's not impressive! Birds also have big, squawking beaks, just like you! You're a bird.

You're not working with a lot upstairs, are you?

From:

counterattack

Don't get mad at me for calling it like I see it. Unless you wanna tell me angels do something else different...

From:

meltokio

[ oh you know, subjugate the whole world to revive a dead woman. ]

They stay young and live forever.

From:

counterattack

( attempt to fish for better info: suc..cess...? hold the fuck up )

...Forever? Wait, so you can be really old—like say, a few thousand—but not look it?

So the stories go.

[ I will neither confirm nor deny. ]

From:

counterattack

( ...he really needs to apologize to lloyd whoops. and probably kratos?! )

Huh. Hard to believe a knucklehead like you would be older than dirt. Shouldn't you be more, I dunno, wise or something?

From:

meltokio

I'm exactly how how old I look. But I am the most beautiful and intelligent of the bunch!

[ the bar is really low ]

From:

counterattack

( side eye... )

So... pushing forty?

From:

meltokio

Watch it, brat.

From:

counterattack

Hehehe.

( ^_^ )

So, wait, is that how come you're so strong even though you barely know how to make a closed fist?

From:

meltokio

Nope, that's just me being a cool and gorgeous natural fighter.

[ hff. ]

From:

counterattack

There's no way you're that strong and completely untrained. Like—my dad's been fighting his whole entire life and I'm not even sure he can do that.

( thinks about it )

Well, no. He can. But he's also huge, and you're a total shrimp. There's something up with that!

From:

meltokio

I'm not untrained. As soon as I could walk I was getting self-defense lessons. I just use blades.

[ he gestures towards the scabbard on his hip. ]

From:

counterattack

Yeah, so was I, and it doesn't just happen by accident! And you've got, like, no muscle mass, dude. Imagine what kind of a wrecking ball you'd be if you did...

( he is imagining, not gayly )

From:

meltokio

[ stop. ]

Ohhh, I get it. You're jealous.

From:

counterattack

Of course that's where you're going with it. No, for your information, I'm not jealous. I think it's cool. But it's also wasted potential if you don't hone it.

From:

meltokio

I never said I wasn't gonna hone it. I agreed to let you be my punching bag, didn't I?

From:

counterattack

Uh-huh. And you'll come to meditation. Right?

( this was never in the contract )

From:

meltokio

Meditation?

[ this SURE WAS NOT ]

From:

counterattack

Yeah, it helps you balance your chi and strengthens your power. All you gotta do is sit quietly and focus your energy. I'm gonna do some other classes with more movement later, but it's important to start with the basics.
