He appreciated both Seren's willingness to spar and her willingness to make sure that things didn't get too out of hand. Nash had seen her at dare night, after all; he knew how she could be, and he approved of her simply on principle because of this.
He dipped into a mocking, sweeping bow, just for the hell of it, grinning widely.
"Thanks, thanks," said Nash airily, a cheeky expression on his face even as Seren's sword came crashing at him again, making him wheeze. He stumbled, righted himself, and swung the whip again, this time using all the force that he could.
And missed.
Because he was Nash.
And because his player's terrible dice rolling strikes again.

Seren would quite frankly be happy to get to know Nash, and hopefully befriend the older man. He seemed like he'd be a lot of fun to hang around with, even if he came off a bit sarcastic. There was nothing wrong with that, as long as it wasn't meant in an actually cruel fashion, after all. "But of course. Only the best for the Queen, after all." She said, in a silly affected tone. For all of the light hearted banter, the wheeze had her eyes concerned as she studied the slender man, wanting to be sure Nash was not having any lung issues. When he came at her and missed, she ducked to the side, and swung in at him again, letting the momentum of her motion do the work. HP: 32/40 Damage: 5 Charge: 3/3

The sarcasm was, unfortunately, inherent, and ran rampant not just in Nash, but the rest of his family as well, sans October, whose wit mostly lay in dry, somber humor instead. But it wasn't really meant meanly - most of the time - since Nash was not that sort of person.
Most of the time. There were a few glaring exceptions.
He was annoyed that he'd missed, Seren's sword slamming into him again. Nash was not getting the hang of his weapon the way she was, and this was a problem, Acheri clattering around irritably in his thoughts. He pushed himself forward and swung again, feeling the weight of the weapon in his hand.
"Damn it. This stupid thing."

She took the hit, seeing the reaction to the miss had Nash displeased, and she thought about it as she moved around him slowly. She had an odd idea forming at the back of her head, one that she might not exactly enjoy if she implemented it, but Nash seemed to be having a hard time with his whip, and it was obviously frustrating him. She was so focused on her idea that her next swing wasn't very hard, but she smiled a little, and decided to broach it. "Ya know, maybe, if you want... In the future we could do just like... some targeting practice for you? Whips seem hella harder to aim then my big a** sword." She winced as Di yelled at her for using the term 'big' and 'a**' together in connection to her. "Instead of a spar, per se, I'd just like... run around, and you try to hit me? Get some aim in."

< You aren't tryingggg hard enoughhh >
Acheri hissed through Nash's mind, coiled and rattled. Nash thought, That's not actually the case but okay, and then stumbled as Seren's sword came whistling towards him again. He managed to wrangle the whip into semi-decent control and spun it outwards in her direction.
"Sure, I'd be down for that," said Nash, through gritted teeth. "This ********' whip has a mind of it's own.

She watched it JUST miss her, and nodded a little. "Beyond the obvious comment of 'well they all do', I'd say there needs to be like... specialized training for specific weapons. It's not like most of us were whipping cattle or something before we got recruited. I'm amazed I've figured out as much as I have with Di here, but... It IS a sword. The sharp side goes in the enemy, basically..." She sighed and swung again, not putting much force behind it as she was trying to think of ways to make the practice she'd suggested more effective. "Maybe for the training, we can set up some of the dummies in weird positions, as it goes, or something... But yeah, we can definitely do this. We only have our fellow hunters, in the end, to make sure we make it out alive in the future..." HP: 29/40 Damage: 1 Charge: 3/3

"Okay, but - " said Nash, glowering at the weapon as Acheri rattled noisily inside of his head, " - you got like, a ******** cool a** sword, and I got this giant ******** whip that doesn't want to cooperate. Also it's really hard to like, move it and s**t."
< if youuuuu would just liiiiissssssten to me > Acheri hissed irritably.
"Dummies would work better, probably," said Nash. "I don't want to feel like I can't do this s**t, I'd rather be able to like, actually accomplish s**t."
Mostly so he wouldn't look stupid on the battlefield when everyone else could do stuff.

"Which is why I feel like they should have specialized training for that kinda thing, dude." She nodded and shrugged. "I mean, Diwata is a pretty damn sweet a** sword, I can not deny that, with how often I get told this, but..." She eyed her biceps for a moment. "I'm beginnin' to get muscles of the sort I never particularly expected or wanted, cause I don't think they suit my frame so much, I can't really do much in enclosed situations... I bet you'd be FIVE MILLION times more effective on the Watchtower if somethin' came up then me..." She sighed a little, then added "And your whip is damn cool too. It looks like it's poisonous, dude." "Well dummies are a good start, but moving targets, aka me, are definitely the next step." Still focused on trying to figure out ways to help him, her next swing just whooshed through the air. She sighed at that, while side stepping to rebalance in response to the weight. "... One downside to a big a** sword, when it misses, it's ********' obvious." HP: 29/40 Damage: OMG IT IS INFECTIOUS Charge: 3/3

"Muscles are hot," said Nash with a shrug, definitely not thinking of a certain someone's toned body as he said so. "I mean, doesn't matter what you are, although those junkheads that get so built they look like lumpy mattresses need to calm the ******** down, because that's just creepy.
He smiled across the weapons at Seren. "I don't think it's poisonous, but it looks more badass than it actually is."
Nash swung it around, trying to aim it at her, sideways stepping Seren's next harsh swing; the sword came down in the air beside him, rather than actually hitting him for once.
"I gotta figure this s**t out eventually, though."

"Not sure they're so hot on me, but I can't argue that muscles are hot on the right bods, in the right proportions." She let a wistful smile cross her face as an image of a certain someone, shirtless, crossed her mind. "Different body types just hold it differently." She managed to avoid his whip, but noticed he avoided her previous swing. "Well looks like you're getting dodging down more, that's a good start. Yeah, just... lemme know when you wanna do target practice. I'm more'n willing." Every battle was good, even if all she was doing was running, and if it helped another friend get the practice needed to make it out of their next battle, she'd be happy to take the hits, too. However, right now, this was a proper spar, and she darted forwards, and swung again. HP: 29/40 Damage: 7 Charge: 3/3

He was getting annoyed again. The ******** whip wasn't doing him much good, and Seren was soundly kicking his a**, which was frustrating on a level that Nash couldn't quite put into words, especially because it wasn't technically Seren's fault.
"Are you thinkin' of anyone in particular, there?" he asked, brows waggling just to be obnoxious. "Whatever, I'm sure you'd look fine with a bit of muscles, it's all good."
She managed to thwack him again, Nash staggering, and he swung out, trying to balance himself and hit back at the same time.

Her brows rose up at his question, and brow waggling, and she just smiled wider. "Yes. Of course it is. Rhys is damn fit, and muscled in all the right ways and places." She had no shame in describing her gorgeous boyfriend as he deserved to be described. She still was amazed she had gotten this lucky and he was INTO her, let alone that they were together. "As long as it's balanced, I'll cope, 'cause Diwata's a damn good fit for me." She was trying to turn the curve of the last swing back at him when his whip hit, and hit hard enough to make her stagger, while the double points at the tip of the sword dragged along the ground. There was a visible wince on her face as Diwata objected. Volubly. In her head. "HOW MANY TIMES do I have to say DO NOT DO THAT?"HP: 24/40 Damage: 0 Charge: 3/3

Nash snorted with amusement.
"Wasn't he at Dare Night?" he asked, trying to place the name to the face. "I don't remember. I feel like he was. Or on that island thingy, the one where we were gone for like ten thousand years or something."
The one where he had met Kade, but that was beside the point. Seren's next swing missed him - thankfully, because he was getting tired of the thing smacking into him - and Nash swung the whip up again, hearing the rattling clatter of Acheri's hisses inside his head.

Seren laughed at that question, an odd expression that crossed amusement and a hint of something that could be wistfulness or maybe nostalgia, it was not clear, and she nodded. "Dares... You dared him to propose to me, and he was very not thrilled by it." Her eyes glittered a little, and she shrugged, a smile on her face. "Still did it, though. Don't know about the island, though he hasn't mentioned it to me, and I think he was in Mexico... I missed that, woke just a bit too late. Do know Kim said she was there." She felt the whip slash her shield, just a little, and waited a moment, getting her feet under her, then swung again, in a low arc, her eyes a little more focused as her blade came in.

"Just goes to show I'm a mother ******** mind reader," said Nash airily. "I don't know who Kim is, was she that chick that took something from Atlantis?"
He only knew this because of that stupid giant lobster and Melvin and sort of Twitter, though admittedly he hadn't been paying much attention. Nash felt Seren's sword cut into him again, sending him staggering sideways with a gasp as pain ricocheted up and down his ribs.
Really, this was ridiculous. He could do better than this.
Nash drew his arm back and slammed the whip forward as hard as he could, aiming deliberately for Seren's lower torso and upper legs, waiting until momentum drove the whip forward to wrap around them before yanking violently back.
