That we could. Thats an excellent idea.

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

I try for those every once in a while.

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

Well, you met the mark there. I suppose we should take these trainings in waves.

<Snipped quote by Revolutionary>

On that note, what's the story behind the two of you?

<Snipped quote by Revolutionary>

*a broken smile forms on my face*

You know... that might be the first thank you I've gotten in a while.... its nice.

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

*Points between us*
Shinji and I?

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

*Smiles solemnly*
It’s hard, for everyone, in many ways. But things look brighter over the horizon.

<Snipped quote by Revolutionary>

Yeah.... Its hard to see it sometimes. But a good friend will always remind you that its there. Than kyou for sicking this through with me.

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

What makes this work so well against them?

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

*Holds my arm out in front of me and clenches my fist*
So many dire circumstances of the highest caliber stacked themselves against us at once. When this is over, it’s all done. Everything accounted for. Peace, even if just for a moment.

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

Well....

*taps a button on my wristwatch, and a thin barrie forms around us all, blocking out our convo to anyone not supposed to hear it*

Its because its a weapon with infused bits of my soul and amaranthine. Somehow, some way, it creates a reaction similar to a chemical reaction, causing normal amaranthien to break down. This fusion is a completely new material. Unfortunately.... we only have enough to make about 20 knifes from said material, as solid amaranthien is extremely hard to find and even harder to aquire.

<Snipped quote by Revolutionary>

Yeah. What's the history?

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

Isn't that all we need then?

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

Not quite. The 'martial art' you mentioned specializes in knifefighting but in an unorthodox fashion. Its a way to keep them from predicting out movements.

<Snipped quote by Revolutionary>

....

*extends mine as well, leading to a fistbump*

Of course. That, and maybe I'll finally get to retire.

*laughs*

<Snipped quote by Revolutionary>

Yeah. What's the history?

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

Isn't that all we need then?

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

Until they predict the martial art?

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

Take an extended break, at minimum.

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

Nothing elaborate or extensive. We fought a few of the Amaranthine in the same battle. The environment of the battle… We’ll just say it cut me off of my strengths and I was beaten pretty badly. King stole part of me with his Amaranthine voodoo, and if Shinji wasn’t there, might have followed up by getting rid if me entirely. Hard to say. But that sums it up.

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

They wont be able to.

<Snipped quote by Revolutionary>

What's the voodoo?

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

Really? How do you manage that?

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

You'll see.

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

No hints, even?

<Snipped quote by Revolutionary>

Oh trust me, I plan to. Overworked is just another wednesday for me, at this point.

<Snipped quote by Revolutionary>

What's the voodoo?

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

Wouldn't that ruin the fun?

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

You need to make yourself actually do it. For real. No backing out due to a sense of responsibility, at this point it’d be to everyone’s benefit if you had some relaxation time.

<Snipped quote by Artifact>

Sis, I wish I knew how it worked. But that’s why it’s voodoo.
