Matt wore a pair of neatly patched up dress pants with a button up shirt with sleeves rolled up to his elbows. At this point he had learned his lesson about showing up to spars in clothes that he actually cared about and went with clothes that were already ruined by other various hunters, some Matt was sure was on purpose. Pulling his cellphone from his pocket he checked the time and grinned before tossing it down on top of the neatly folded hunter’s jacket. He had arrived earlier for the spar that Abbi had arranged with him and a friend; someone named Dawson who was looking to improve his fighting skills. Rolling his shoulders he summoned his weapon and started to take a few practice swings and a few half assed stretches as he waited. medigel sorry for delay! thought I would keep it short to start <3!

Dawson looked like he was coming from a particularly grimy day at work, judging by the dark stains on his worn plaid shirt and torn jeans, but he was upbeat as he approached the fields. Abbi had managed to snag him another spar, and he promised himself that this time he wasn't going to accidentally send himself to the infirmary like before. That and, well, more Moon people! Yes! Good!
Going off the description she had given him, he lumbered past several engaged hunters and began to wave down who he was sure he was supposed to meet. "Hey! Matt, right?"

Matt was taking a few practice swings as a voice called out his name. Looking over he noticed what he could only call a grimy looking hunter wearing an odd flannel shirt. It never failed that the island had the oddest collection of people he had ever met not that he was really worried about it. Despite his looks Matt was sure he wouldn’t be too much harm it was one of Abbi’s friends and Abbi couldn’t know the worse people could she? Maybe he had too much faith in others. Holding out his hand Matt nodded, “Yep, you must Dawson thanks for agreeing to spar with me.”

"Yessir!" He gave Matt a firm shake. "Nice t'meetcha. Can't say no when Abbi offers somethin', heh," Dawson said with a grin. "Swear that girl has connections errywhere. But hey, good t'see more've the division, y'know?"
Rolling his shoulders, he took a few large steps back and summoned his shield. "How ya wanna do this? I, uh, m'still pretty new t'this, so I ain' gonna be a big problem either on defense r' offense."

As Dawson grabbed Matt’s hand and shook he couldn’t help but nod the entire time he spoke as he tried to piece part of his accent together. “Yea, nice to meet you too,” giving a grin as he continued to nod, “Yea don’t get to meet a lot of the division mostly just lifers in the infirmary.”A shield, well at leas there less chance of being stabbed to death and his pants ripped Matt thought as he shrugged. “I’ll attack first if your cool with that, and from there take turns offense defense.”

Dawson stuck out a thumbs up. "You got it, dude!"
Even as he continued to eye that staff of Matt's warily. It wasn't a scythe, sure, but...still.

Matt moved forward, keeping a rather defensive stance as he swung at him letting the end of the spear bounce off the shield. He was curious if it was something more than just a shield, or if Dawson had some mad skills that could only be compared to Captain America in fighting. There was also the question of the possibility in super human strength, if so Matt was doomed. “How long you been around Deus?”Health: 40/40 Damage: 0

The shield came up quickly. Spar after spar, Dawson had noticed he tended to be slow on the uptake, so he had started to hone his jittery reflexes into moving the shield where the attack would most likely land. It wasn't 100% accurate, and most of the time he ended up dodging things that weren't actually there, but this time he was satisfied with a dull clang as he pushed Matt's staff away.
"Since, uh, mid-October," he replied. "Already close ta half a year, can ya believe it? N' m'still not used t'all the stuff goin' on here. You?"

So far no flashy moves like the Captain America yet, but there was no telling what a hunter could do. Matt watched as Dawson took another defensive stance before lunging his staff forward striking the shield straight on before it glanced to the side and only grazed him. For the most part unless Dawson attacked it was going to be rather slow battle on Matt’s part. “Forever I think, not really I’ve been here over a year, two years maybe? Maybe two years… as for getting use to things. Just when you think you know everything, something completely side hits you with some new s**t and your lost all over again.” Health: 40/40 Damage: 6-4 = 2

"Two years? s**t..."
The second time, he wasn't so lucky. Dawson twitched as the staff glanced his shield and attempted to check further swings by moving forward, but his weapon was heavy: the attack was easy to anticipate.
"Well good on ya fer managin' t'last that long," he chirped nonetheless. "Had a few weeks a'crazy crap tossed around. Can't 'magin' doing it fer that long..." He hesitated before adding, "S'it ever get easier?"

Matt forgot how long two years really was some of the days seemed to just blend together. Most of it seemed to blend together like one really long week. Swinging his staff wide around the backside of his waist Matt brought it to the opposite side of his body before lunging forward towards Dawson’s thigh. The shield was well doing its exact job protecting Dawson from most of Matt’s attacks; he would have to do something less predictable if the spar was going to move anywhere. “I am not sure if it is good or just dumb sheer luck I’ve been here for that long,” Matt was pretty sure that it was really just a lot of dumb luck. “Not really, there’s a few days where you think everything might be ok but then s**t hits the fan again and your screwed over more than you were before hand.” With more scars and trauma to deal with afterwards.

The crack made him yelp and nearly stumble. Dawson didn't so much as try to push him back as he did flail a little and try to back off at the same time, rubbing at the post gingerly.
"Oh," was his meek reply. He peeked around his shield sheepishly. "Welp, m'happy t'report we been havin' a nice couple a'weeks? I-I think? No-one been goin' nuts at least, no monsters either." Though it could be a calm before the storm...

As Dawson peeked around his shield sheepishly Matt felt a little bad for him, so far he had been doing more than playing defense as Matt got a few hits in here and there. Stepping forward he swung again wide to avoid his shield towards his arm, not as hard as he had previously. “Yea, should enjoy the eye of the storm before it comes rolling in again. It’s sort of like a little vacation where you don’t have to completely worry about dying or losing limbs or things like that. Sometimes you spend the whole vacation trying to get over the trauma you encountered so it is sort of… a ..crappy vacation.” Sometimes it took even longer.

He still appeared chipper, if losing a bit of color at the description. "Man, you sound real chipper, heh."
Barrier or not it still hurt, though he forced himself--wincing throughout--to push past the initial urge to back the hell off and charge Matt with a shield bash. "You been on a mission that gotcha like that?" Dawson asked. "Made ya stay in the infirmary fer a long while n' stuff? I been able to avoid it, but I'm startin' t'think ya aren't a real hunter 'til somethin' makes ya stay there fer at least two weeks, speed healin' be damned..."

“Well I’m a little less chipper than usually but don’t worry the infirmary can put quite a handful of people back together again with little problem… mostly little problem… Well good enough you can keep going.” He would at least do his best to try to fix anyone who came in. Matt stumbled a few steps back; he wasn’t prepared for Dawson to come at him with a shield bash however he gave him a grin of approval. Taking a moment to regain his footing he lifted his spear above his head and brought it swiftly down on Dawson’s shoulder. “Yea, I’ve been on a mission where I was in the infirmary for while afterwards, my fault for being a nice guy.” He shouldn’t have stayed behind to help out the only female left. “I was stabbed in the chest with the some sort of gem tipped staff. Pretty sure it punctured my lungs and pierced part of my heart, but you can’t tell really except for the weird scar.” Health: 37/40 Damage: 4 Charge: 3/3
