*Glances at you and after a moment of hesitation, half-smiles*
I hope the day comes soon.

<Snipped quote by Techspert>

She would like that.
*stretches*
Well, snack time is over.
*crumbles up the wrapper and puts it in a pocket*

<Snipped quote by Spiritblitz>

Thank you for not polluting the river.
*Clears my throat*
Time works strangely in all of its manifestations. There is no manipulation here, for one.

<Snipped quote by Techspert>

Because of the river?

<Snipped quote by Spiritblitz>

Because fundamentally, manipulating time is manipulating the river. Out here, there’s nothing to change. I consider that a weakness of the river model compared to the desert or the tree.

<Snipped quote by Techspert>

The tree?

<Snipped quote by Spiritblitz>

Just another discipline of many. The tree is much more connected to life as it moves throughout time.

<Snipped quote by Techspert>

But it is still. Trees don't move.

<Snipped quote by Spiritblitz>

They grow in both directions.

<Snipped quote by Techspert>

Fair enough.

<Snipped quote by Spiritblitz>

For our purposes here, the visualization doesn’t make much of a difference. I want you to strike me, but only by moving in a straight line. Once you select a direction, you’re bound to it, forward and back.

<Snipped quote by Techspert>

*pulls out my handcannon and points it at you*

<Snipped quote by Spiritblitz>

Hand-to-hand. We’ll get to firearms.

<Snipped quote by Techspert>

*holsters it*

<Snipped quote by Spiritblitz>

The point is to learn something, not to actually shoot me in the face.

<Snipped quote by Techspert>

I thought you were gonna show me something. I wasn’t gonna immediately shoot.

<Snipped quote by Revolutionary>
Stilgar:
*darts to your left side, narrowly dodging your blade as I bring mine toward the side of your stomach with a reverse grip stabbing motion*

<Snipped quote by Unhinged>

*You find the cube completely hollow, and my hand extends up from your own shadow, pulling you into the ground by the ankle*

<Snipped quote by Multifarious>

Welp, what should we ask her then?

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

*Looks down before slamming into the metal ground on my back with a loud thud, then kicking your off my leg*
