Welcome to Gaia! ::

"..." There was another person. And Sky was not here yet. Where was he? Was he following? Did he leave? He felt weaker and weaker as the moments went by. He hated to be around people. And when he was alone, without his brother, it was almost so unbearable that it was suffocating. "...I..." He couldn't really speak rationally or clearly, he just wanted to get through his message. He wanted to find within these walls -- training -- but all he found was fear. Despite all the people around him, he had never felt more alone.

One, who looked highly similar to the other already within the hall, came flying through the doors. He made his way to the side of his brother and looked around before letting out a long whistle. "Fancy place you've got here," he said as his red eyes noticed the two others in the room. He then quickly looked to his brother for a brief moment. "Sorry Hawk. Took a brief detour," he spoke with a large grin as he adjusted the bow and quiver which were slung over his shoulder. He then heard the words of the small man. "Uhhh...Neh! Ya can't help him! Whatsa midget like you gonna possible teach us!?" he spoke rudely to the smaller man.

"I... you... are too rash. Yes, we are looking for assistance. I am sorry for stumbling in here like a lost sheep; I am simply... nervous, around... most people." As much as he didn't want to speak, especially not to someone so... inferior, it seemed his brother really couldn't handle anything on his own. "I -- we -- have been looking for someone reliable... dependent, pretty much everywhere imaginable. We are looking for training, just ignore Sky, he's not really gifted in the brains department. I'm... what some people call a berzerker... though, I'm perfectly capable of controlling myself, thanks for asking, and I'd like to learn some hand-to-hand abilities... or, anything you could give. It'd be appreciated, though it's okay if you really don't have the time or desire. We are sorry for charging in here so... insidiously." Although he didn't really find any dislike or disdain in Sky's words -- he acted almost as if he were against him, if only to gain the favor of the "teacher". ''Remember, if we act hostile, we will be treated in that way. We need to act... ugh, nice, even as hard as it is. Beggars can't really be choosers, and I'm sure you don't want to get forced out onto the street."

(We can post without Alex from here on, he's going to bed and told me it's okay for us to move on without him.)

Tapping his chin as he paced through the styles he'd gained knowledge of within his life, he put on a small smile along the curve of his lips as he began to abruptly speak. "Juijitsu. That is what I want to learn... first in line, though the actual list would bore you a bit, I think. Along with that, I'd like to learn capoeira. I believe, from what I've seen, that the two compliment eachother. Though, apparently, I'm just a "dumb kid" by most people's standards, so I'll leave that for you to decide, oh short one." He lightly chuckled, though honestly he was rather bored of this facade. He hoped this spire and its residents were worth it -- or they, in his eyes, would not be worth him. A home for refugees. It almost seemed too good to be true. The sad part of it all, however, was that even those smart enough to run from their "get-nowhere" nations still seemed to be fools.

(Brief post but I'm not really sure about styles. Do you learn all of the skills within the stage, just the stage, or both?)
