	So, anyways, any sort of style you prefer? Katana, saber, I could go on.
- 
   
	"A girl who can go on about swords? I like. And I'm a Nittoryu Katana swordsman. Double sword style. Although Ive been using one lately."
- 
   
	Interesting. I'm not really into swords, but if I had to go with one I'd say rapier. I have my own personal style.
- 
   
	"And what would that be?"
- 
   
	Lots of fast thrusts, and diagonal slashes.

	[b] He nods[/b] "I just roll with what works, which lately, hasn't been working. So I've been working my ass off on rooftops, getting interrupted by people." [b] He chuckles[/b]
- 
   
	If I'm interrupting just keep practicing. I can wait for you to be done to talk.
- 
   
	"It's fine. Did you have something specific you were looking to ask me?"
- 
   
	Not really. Just wanted to see what was happening.
- 
   
	[b] He nods.[/b] "Curiosity killed the cat."
- 
   
	Heh. Anyways, what's your name? Mine's Keri.
- 
   
	"I'm Lance. Gentleman and swordsman extraordinaire." [b] He performs a mock bow[/b]
- 
   
	Well, Lance. [b]She writes something down.[/b] If you ever need to contact me, go to this address. [b]She hands the paper to you.[/b]
- 
   
	[b] He looks at the paper.[/b] "We just met and you're already giving me your address? I could be a serial killer for all you know."
- 
   
	Not my address. A place I hang out at. [b]The note reads:[/b] [quote]Neon red building with green stripes in Neo-Centra.[/quote]
- 
   
	[b] He raises his eyebrows.[/b] "Why would I need to contact you Ms. Keri?"
- 
   
	In case you need someone to talk to.
- 
   
	"Alright. Mind if I ask what the mask is for?"
- 
   
	I'm hiding a past.
- 
   
	[b] He rolls his eyes.[/b] "Wearing a mask doesn't hide anything but your face."
- 
   
	My face is a doorway to my past.
- 
   
	"No, you're face is a face. With eyes and a nose and a mouth. It has nothing to do with your past. Seriously, whys everyone so damn depressing."
- 
   
	[b]Sudden realization sets into her eyes.[/b] Do you want me to take it off?
- 
   
	"Not if you have some code against it or something. It's your choice, but no, I wouldn't mind seeing your face."
- 
   
	Okay. [b]She reaches her hands up to the strap on the back of her mask. She slowly lowers it off of her face. It reveals a gorgeous young woman, strikingly beautiful.[/b]
