Seren stood on the field, slashing at a dummy. She had changed into starry patterned leggings and a black tank top with a silver shooting star on it for this, unwilling to risk her favorite outfit when she was in this kind of mood. She looked stressed, perhaps a little pissed, and maybe if some one was good at reading expressions, worried beyond all belief masked under that. The news she saw on Twitter was pretty much the worst news she'd heard in years, and that counted getting dumped because she had to work to survive. "Dai..." She whispered, horror in her voice as she raised Diwata over her head, and swung a smashing hit at the dummy, managing to splinter the damn thing, possibly via the weight of the sword she was using. She stepped back, huffing a little and staring at the dummy.

Fred was into sparring already, really enjoying a bit of a fight with his new partner in tow and more than happy to volunteer himself for some of it. He'd spent some time reading up on the place he now found himself in and was feeling more prepared to face the world. He'd even dressed a little less flamboyantly than usual to preserve his clothes.
It was of course still ******** raining.
"Hey there, you Seren?" he asked the woman currently smashing the s**t out of a dummy with supernatural force.
"I'm Fred."

She spun around, a little startled, as focused as she had been on the dummy she was killing, sword at the ready because of that, and then when she processed the other person there, she sighed and relaxed her stance a bit. "Sorry, off in my own world..." She brushed an annoying stray lock of hair from her face, then nodded. "Yeah, that would be me."
She looked him over, head tilted, seeing the similarities and differences between this man and what she had seen of his twin. Pretty fellows, certainly, and a tad short, but... She wouldn't assume that meant they couldn't fight.
Height and looks didn't mean some one wasn't dangerous.
She gave him a slight smile, and said "Ready to get this show on the road?"

Fred grinned. "Absolutely. I was born ready."
He was feeling generous so was willing to even summon his weapon, happy to make a complete fool of himself if he had to with how unfamiliar he was with it.
He flicked his hand and the long Odachi blade appeared in it, bracing himself with it in both hands.

And just to establish how ready he was he swung the blade at her as quickly as he could, but feignted out at the last minute.
It was totally intentional, he wasn't just really s**t at this.
"This s**t is hard." he said grimly.

She was actually impressed at how fast he started moving, and barely managed to swing her sword in time for a response. Sadly, the timing was s**t, and she completely missed her opponent, with a soft '********!' under her breath, as her not as long but definitely wider sword sliced the air NEXT to Fred. At least she managed not to bury Diwata in the dirt, for which she was grateful. Diwata had SERIOUS words about stunts like that one. Quote: HP: 40/40 DMG: 0 Charge: 0/3

Fred didn't at all judge the other hunter for missing, finding his own weapon unwieldy at best and useless at worst. Everything about him was slow, everything about the huge blade rendered ponderous and capable of entirely throwing him off balance in a heartbeat.
It was a miracle he managed to strike at all and when he swung and managed to glance off her shield briefly it was as much a surprise to him as it was to anyone.

She made a slight ssss sound at the contact, noting it hit but not really bothered, and shifted her stance so that she had more stability, and struck out for his side, her blade glittering in what light there was under this always so pleasant weather. She was quite pleased with the hit, this time, feeling the weight of the sword in her arms. It felt right this time, rather then '******** I'ma screw up'. Quote: HP: 38/40 DMG: 7 Charge: 1/3

The hit connected and Fred inhaled sharply through his teeth, a sound which flew awfully close to satisfaction rather than pain. He really enjoyed fighting, every single bit of it and even the prospect of losing didn't upset him, every master had lost a hundred times more than any beginner had ever done.
He reeled back with a laugh. "Nice hit mate!" he said brightly, determined to try and at least pull even with the other hunter.
His own hit was once again glancing, but he wasn't upset about it.

His compliment earned him a small, fierce grin, at the same time as she took the blow he dealt. She acknowledged it in the best way she knew how, by turning with the force it impacted her with, and used that to slam her blade into him again. Less force this time, but still a satisfying hit. "Thanks... Nice job of your own." Not at all sarcastic, she meant it quite seriously. These damn weapons were HARD to get used to. Quote: HP: 35/40 DMG: 5 Charge: 2/3

"Gonna take me a hell of a lot more practice to even get the most basic hang of this. Dunno how any of the other guys here even manage it."
Still it was hard not to really enjoy the pain and adrenaline of fighting for its own merit.
"Guess I'll have plenty of time to like get used to it, sparring everyone I can find. Maybe then I won't suck."
His hit wasn't great, but the runes all lit up regardless.

"Sure, but all of us trainees do." She made a soft nnn at his hit, but shrugged it off. "I suspect it's partly not everyone has to learn how to manage an oversized sword of some nature." She hefted her own oversized sword as she said that, pulling it back into an arcing swing. She did notice the glowing runes though, and mentally braced herself. This was probably going to hurt in a moment. Glowing things didn't usually mean good things, in battle. At least her hit meant her runes were ready too. If she managed to hold up to his next hit.

Fred gave in to the pent up energy in his weapon, rounding on Seren.
But once again the strange buzzing wave of smog took everything out of him and gave nothing at all back, going well wide of any contact with her.
He sighed loudly.

She was very surprised when the attack missed. It was nothing like she'd expected. She didn't take time to feel bad for him, or pity him, though. They were there to fight, and fight she damn well would. She took the opening this gave her, and darted in with another high swing, eyes intent on her shorter spar partner. It was interesting to work with such a height difference, she found herself noting in a side part of her brain as she moved. Something to remember for the future. Quote: HP: 33/40 DMG: 6 Charge: 3/3

"It ******** always does that s**t." he said irritably as he took the harsh hit from her weapon against his shield.
"Maybe one day he'll hit someone other than me." His mood seemed to improve measurably though as he adjusted to the pain, his shield absorbing less and less of everything she did.
