(You were a little late and the scenario is changed. You'd known if you'd read the comments, but I'll roll with it.) I turn my attention to the shadowy figure. "Um I was. I got the my problem solved almost completely with the help of Leon here. I'm in the middle of something right now but I'd like to know why after all this time you're just now approaching me about this but that can wait."

(Dojo is a bit different, where you can have multiple people go through the same interactions and have them all be Cannon. Just an FYI, because I read what you and Bacon did.) "After all this time... I think you're ready. I've been.... Observing you let's say. As I usually do with people such as yourself." The shadowy man said, sighing. "You see... I myself am a fallen Angel of sorts."
-
(Ok, I just wanted to have a bit of consistency and continuity for my character and his arc but my bad.) "Ok I'll just finish interrogating this scumbag with Leon and we can talk but If Leon is done I'll just end this already." I turn to the suspect with murderous intent sharply gleaming in my eyes. The bartender cracks immediately and begs for mercy promising to tell me everything about why he tried to poison is. "Well lets say I believe you you were being controlled by someone else, why would they be after us. Leon seems like he doesn't have too many enemies who'd be that cowardly. He wouldn't deal with you and I haven't made much if a name for myself yet. Who sent you?" The man's eyes roll back into his head begins speaking into tongues as his eyes and mouth bleed violently and he collapses. "I guess he was telling the truth about the outside influence. " I sigh and sit down and ask the stranger " What'd you need to talk about?"
-
(Ah, if I'd known that... You should switch the post around then. Add a little "Closed" at the bottom so that others don't reply.) "Certainly seem like an interesting fellow. Bar tender going after you. Speaking in tongues. I recognized most of em, but that's digressing from the point. Lucky this isn't my bar." "Heard you were looking for a mentor. A proper one. For your... Powers."
-
"Leon helped with my combat training and made a fighter out of me, but I do need to train in other areas that are out of Leon's field of expertise. According to our conversations during training so I'll bite."
-
"Combat training only goes so far with a young man like that. But that's besides the point. You have... An aura around you. Some sort of power. I want to help you unlock it."

Edited by Jovis Joesun: 8/11/2017 11:58:20 PM(It would be appreciated if your character puts mine in his place so this interaction doesn't hurt him in the long run. Knock him out and he'll come right down. Probably.)
-
(I'd do it if it were the nature of my character. But he's more of s diplomatic guy. Ask questions first, shoot later.)
-
"Hey Leon was one of the only people to welcome me whenI arrived here. He is good fighter and an even better friend. You say combat training only goes so far, but my power is to summon a divine spear for melee combat as well as the magical attacks that I am still working on mastering. Don't disrespect one of the most outgoing men I've ever met!" I lashed out in defense of my friend and mentor. Ignoring the valid help I was needing and being offered.
-
"Wasn't aware I disrespected him at all. Just said it can only go so far." The man said, sighing. "He might be outgoing, but that doesn't mean he's a master of the trade. I, for one, have spent nearly eleven thousand years around swords, Spears and weapons you couldn't even dream of. So you can imagine how far [i]that[/i] would go."
-
"But I'll accept your offer. I'll still train with Leon and hang out with him regardless of if you like that or not."
-
"Well, I already had some intermediate training before joining the dojo. Leon is a master by Mortal standards. Not a fair comparison when a seemingly immortal warrior with 10k plus years of experience. I only just gained longevity and was human myself just a year ago. Don't be pretentious."
-
"You're going to call my experience pretentious? Do you even know the meaning of the word?" The man asked with a crude chuckle, more annoyed then anything.
-
"Not your experience, I was calling YOU pretentious for thinking that it was a valid comparison. You are immortal with more experience than even most other immortals like us. I haven't lost touch with my humanity yet so how could I not be upset about that?"
-
"You... Don't be. It's real quite simple. It's a valid comparison, I think. I give you glimpse into what I know, which is more then the mortal man. Lure you in, make you think of the possibilities. Show you a few moves, teach you a few things so you can surpass your mentor. I mean have you never watched a movie before?"
-
"I still agreed. I was just defending my friend when he hasn't moved since you walked in." I continue, "If you hadn't insulted my good friend I wouldn't have gotten upset on this. I was just expecting you to apologize for that."
-
"What was my insult against him?" The man asked, looking over to Leon.
-
"Its more of a cultural thing for where I'm from. I forgot that this place is a gathering from around the omniverse but when I lashed out. Did you not realize that I was offended and deduce it was more of a cultural thing."
-
"Once you've experienced as many cultures as I have... You can't tell the difference between them." The man said, shrugging his shoulders. "In an any case. I apologize for any disrespect there may have been."
-
"I forgive you. I've aggressive and defensive about things since... I need to stop for my own sake." (I am at the movies so I'll be unresponsive for a bit.)
-
"Now then. Why don't you... Tell me something an your powers."
-
Since I had gotten info from that bartender I was anxious to get out of the infirmary. I began explaining, "I have the power to summon a divine spear called True Longinus. It killed a god at its prime. I have no idea how to use most of its powers and need to learn how to do so. Its a sacred gear if you know what those are."
-
"Sacred gear. Where did you get your hands on sacred gear? That's weaponry of angels right there." The man said, glancing over.
-
"Wielders are born with the power to summon it. So I was born with that power. Supposedly, mine only has one in existence so I am the only user that of it that exists right now."
-
(My character is based off an already existing franchise so that statement your character made isn't correct) "Actually you might be thinking of holy swords and similar weapons. Sacred Gears can be used by angels if they were human born like I was, or extract the magical abilities of its wielder, thus killing them. I may be a fallen angel but I was once a reincarnated angel."
-
(You're assuming he knows about the franchise, which he doesn't...) "So it is Angel weaponry. But more on a technicality then anything." The man said,chuckling slightly.
