Hmm.

Put that down right now, young man! You'll put someone's eye out.

i'll trade you for a pen

Pen beats sword. Sword beats paper. Paper beats rock. Rock beats Weretable skull....Jrossi takes sword.

*sets head aside* If you think I've come as far as I have by using my head, you've got another thought coming. . .

Dammit! And that's one of the three things that can kill me! Hell, I knew I'd have bad luck today.

sciurus fences? I have a sword, but it's not a proper epee or sabre. A museum replica. Nice one, but no good for formal fencing.

testuo fences too! It's tetsuo and sciurus--there can be only one!
posted by shane 04 January | 08:53
I think I lost a tip screw.

*spends rest of the night in the armory with tetsuo*
posted by sciurus 04 January | 09:04
Oh those bloody tips..one of many reasons I went to the dark side: sabre. I haven't fenced competitively since '96, sciurus would probably get THE PRIZE.

I'm out of practice as well. I can't afford the $100/mo club fees.

Heh! Anyone here see the ORIGINAL Aeon Flux, the good stuff, the original shorts with NO DIALOGUE? Chung sets up the Indiana Jones scene, the swordsman squares off against the guy with the gun, the gunman looks back and forth from his gun to the swordsman as the swordsman twirls his blade...

...he fires and the swordsman deflects the bullet with the flat of his blade and skewers the gunman in one smooth move!

Heh!

shane: yes
also have some non movie aeon comments for another time, as well as an old old old excerpt from a dystopian story i wrote i should find of a head and sword moment--

stilcho: *buzzer that goes EEEEEEEEEh*
