[Closed] I'll never give up, I'll never give in
WHO: Hunter, Mirabel and Luisa
WHERE: Luisa's room.
WHEN: Early April.
WHAT: Self-defense lessons!
WARNINGS: Mentions of child soldiering, Hunter is a huge brat and won't go easy on them.
[Fighting is something Hunter is intimately familiar with. Unlike certain Coven Heads who basically just had glorified desk jobs (coughLilithcough), Hunter spent most of his life fighting. He went through the same training as the Coven Scouts, which included a large amount of witch dueling, and as the Golden Guard he was often called on to hunt down dangerous creatures and criminals. It's part of life, and honestly, to him it's pretty weird when he meets people where that isn't the case.
From what he's learned the Madrigal kids have had an incredibly easy life. You don't get any safer than growing up in an isolated, secure community with none of the Boiling Isle's dangers, with a whole community respecting and admiring you. All of the validation with none of the fighting to even earn a chance. It's weird.
But anyways. Offering self-defense lessons to Luisa and Mirabel is a good, pragmatic decision. He doesn't have the same resources he had back home, so this offers him a chance to do some practice training. On top of that, it lets him practice his leadership skills, something sorely he needs as the right hand of the Emperor. They learn how to get out of a fight, so it's a good idea all around!
The three of them are in Luisa's room, which offers enough space and privacy from the rest of the household. Hunter doesn't care either way, as long as they've got somewhere that's big enough and no one is going to interrupt them any space is fine. Rascal has gone and settled on a shelf out of the way to watch everything.
He's wearing his owl mask, though he's decided to forgo most of his Golden Guard armour and cloak, only wearing the vest and gloves. He doubts he'll need most of it, though the vest will be useful on the off-chance Luisa punches him or something.]
So, I guess we have to start with the basics for you two. [He's got his hands on hips, sounding as cocky as ever. There's a whole judgmental tone to his voice when he says basics, like they're having to start out with the baby moves for babies.] How about both of you come at me.
[That isn't a friendly suggestion.]
