WHO: Sway and Scathach
WHERE: Dojo?
WHEN: Post-Joker plot.
WARNINGS: N/A
SUMMARY: Suzi needs to learn how to fight.
FORMAT: Paragraph? Whatever works

After almost sucking in poisonous gas, getting beaten by civilians, and spending way too much effort to find a gas mask in the stupid city, Suzi knew that she had to get better at hand-to-hand combat. The bruises along the side of her body reminded her every time she did any yoga or stretching that she didn't know how to fight that well. She also didn't really know what she should do after stopping villains in time. Any real life experience was based on island creatures that she didn't really need to worry about killing--since Gabriel or Petra would take care of take downs in that way.

Suzi sighed. The City was still rebuilding from all the damage Joker's gas caused. She sent a message to Scathach about going towards her dojo for some possible training. But Suzi wasn't sure if it was still standing though.

There were levels amongst the vampire? They were getting more complicated as Suzi started picking up more information. She wondered if there was a place she could read more about them. Just to be better informed. But she wasn't ready to ask Scathach about that yet. She seemed very orderly. Or proper. Well, it didn't seem polite to ask about it in this situation. Suzi nodded in response. All right, vegetarian vampire.

"Seems like you have many advantages as the better of the species," Suzi replied. "Does that help you as a warrior?" she asked.

Looking around her, Suzi answered tentatively, "I can start today. I don't have much to do either."

The redhead shrugged, blinking slowly a few times. "I cannot feel pain," she offered. "I suppose that could be considered an advantage." Except, to her, it truly wasn't. Sure, it may have been helpful during battle, but she wasn't always fighting. Right now, it would have been nice to feel... something on her own. The emotions she was experiencing were mere shadows of what they could be, and it saddened her. Well, it made her feel as if she were sad, anyway.

"Splendid," the young woman replied, clapping her hands once before standing with one fluid motion. She stretched her arms over her head, and her shirt lifted a bit to show a toned, flat abdomen. It was obvious that keeping in shape was important to her. "We will start with a few exercises, yes?"

[ooc; if you'd like, we can thread the actual training session--scatty will probably suggest a spar, just to gauge where suzi is at. otherwise, i think this'd be a decent place to end. it's up to you, i'm good either way (:]
