See ya Monday @RoadkilBanana, enjoyed the fight!

I never realized you all were the real monsters all along...


I resent that.

*Strokes my chin*
Right, right.


Okay, so now it's your turn.
<Snipped quote by Meta>

I just ask out of curiosity more than anything. I get what you're saying though, just for the record.


Maybe combat intuition is the short way to say it. The better that gets, the stronger we are.
<Snipped quote by Meta>

When I say that, I mean it more as a concept than a literal function. If people have muscle memory too, just like you, then is it really an analog to muscle development? That's what I'm just poking at a bit.


*Shrugs*
I thought it sounded pretty good.
<Snipped quote by Meta>

Even though muscle memory is also just its own thing?


Sure, but again. We don’t have muscles.
<Snipped quote by Meta>

That’s an incredibly introspective way to describe it but yeah.


Right, think of that but with the skill you develop from training. In a weird way, you could say that muscle memory is our muscle growth.
<Snipped quote by Meta>

Forgive me but I can’t imagine what “visceral knowledge” means. Unless you’re talking about being as brutal as possible when exploiting someone’s weakness.


You know how when you work out, it becomes a part of you, sort of? One day you show up, stronger than the day before, and that stronger you is incorporated into who you are?
<Snipped quote by Meta>

Looks different?


Training is all about information. The better you understand combat, the more effective you'll be in a battle. But for us, that sort of knowledge is much more visceral and indwelt.
<Snipped quote by Meta>

It’s just not a short answer.


I’m curious. We don’t have muscles to work out, so it looks a little different for navis.
