Back to the Castle (Open)
Lee arrived at the Brownstone. He had been away for a while visiting Uncle Greg at his ranch. Greg wasn't really his uncle but his dad and him were really close. It had been a really nice trip and he had gotten to ride horses every day he was there. Something he didn't get to do to much of in the city.

His sword was on his back as he opened up the front doors and walked inside he had hoped to do some training while he was there.

	"Hello," Tess said cordially as she stepped into the front atrium. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	"Hello Tess," Lee says with a smile and a nod of his head. "How have things been?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That's good to hear," Lee says, "Still not sure how to manage all of that." "Good. Had a nice time visiting Uncle Greg. Watched a lot of John Wayne and Clint Eastwood movies." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Clint Eastwood is a very interesting performer, I'll give him that. Workout time?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Uncle Greg insists that he is the best actor of his generation." "Yeah I was planning on some combat training as well." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Saying quite a bit, in that generation, but I'm not surprised. Good. One can never get enough practice in." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yeah with Uncle Greg that's not a surprise at all," Lee says, "I fully agree with that sentiment. Need to keep my skills a sharp as they can be." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Want to go for quarterstaffs?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	brightestknight 2012-01-15 02:30 am UTC (link)
	"Sure," Lee says. Staffs weren't Lee's best weapon which was swords by a long shot but he wasn't bad with one. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Great." And off they'll go to the workout room. Tess'll get down a couple of quarterstaffs. They're not her absolute strongest suit, but better than she is with swords, so a good compromise. She tosses Lee one. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Lee takes off his sword and heavy jacket once he gets into the workout room. He catches the staff as it is thrown to him before gripping it with both of his hands in the grip he learned to using a Quarterstaff. "Let me know when you are ready." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Tess takes hers with a corresponding stance, then... "Begin." She's on the defense. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	brightestknight 2012-01-15 03:55 am UTC (link)
	Lee nodded. He than began to press his attack. Starting with a high attack coming down at her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	fairplay 2012-01-15 04:50 am UTC (link)
	She braced hers upward to block it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	brightestknight 2012-01-15 04:59 am UTC (link)
	Coming off the rebound of the blocked attack Lee strike up from the lower part of the staff. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Tess has to rely on her footwork to work back, her grip coming off-balance a bit. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	brightestknight 2012-01-15 05:06 am UTC (link)
	Lee kept on advancing with his attacks using the few patterns he knew by rote. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	fairplay 2012-01-15 05:09 am UTC (link)
	As she tried to regain her handholds without getting disarmed, Tess retreated faster, until she was almost completely backed against the wall. Then, having regained her stance a little, she tried to change things up, making a strike with her own staff to knock at Lee's fingers. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	brightestknight 2012-01-15 02:02 pm UTC (link)
	Lee had been so focused on his own attacks had had not thought about needing to defend. The strike to his fingers stops his current attack and give Tess a moment to do something. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	fairplay 2012-01-15 06:05 pm UTC (link)
	And Tess tries to press that advantage with something that could potentially disarm.. or at least get her less pressed against the wall. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	brightestknight 2012-01-15 06:32 pm UTC (link)
	Lee step back giving Tess more room as he worked on his defense trying to regain the advantage. (Reply to this)(Parent)
