So, Matt set up the time and L said he wanted to spar before hand. Fine with me. I was curious as to which of us was better, anyways. I mean, it went without saying I was better than Matt and Near because they didn't really practice before, but between L and me I wanted to know which of us was better.

He'd arranged with me to arrive early at the dojo I'd manage to find. A and Kusuriyuri would be with him. I just hoped his trained monkey didn't hex me while we practiced. Last thing I wanted was outside interference when such an important question was on the line.

Though it'd been a couple of days and I'd gotten both Near and Matt up to something that might be called a self-defense level mostly by beating them up for a couple of hours and then throwing hexes at each other, I was still edgy. There were some lines that just should never be crossed.

Threatening my best friend was one of those lines. By extension, he'd also threatened my lover because he's gone after L.

So, now, I'm warming up, dressed in the loose clothing I wore as a kid at Wammy's because it was easier to practice in than leather.

L arrives, and since he's already barefoot he doesn't even need to take his shoes off. He holds the door open for the people following him; he has a bit of a procession, you see.

"Mello. You are well, I trust?"

Kusuriyuri follows A into the room. Just inside the door, he bows and removes his geta and medicine chest, setting them both within easy reach. It has been awhile since he has watched any martial arts practice and he is curious as to the methods being taught now.

A finds a corner to sit in; he doesn't want to get in anyone's way. He's a bit uneasy at the seriousness this occasion promises, and the number of people in a close space.

But if he focuses on L and Kusuriyuri, he will be all right.

"Reasonable. Although teaching them to adapt to different styles of attack would probably be best."

He turns to A, and says, very seriously.

"We are agreeing to this. Remember not to curse him, alright?"

Kusuriyuri turns to A and adds softly, "This is to help Matt, so do your best." He could see how much it bothered Mello to admit he might not be the best and he had to respect that much at least.

A bows his head. He does understand, intellectually at least. It's like practicing hexes with Matt.

Of course, he was pretty ruthless with Matt.

A's sure, though, that Kusuriyuri can help him not lose his temper at Mello for daring to help L practice.

"Hm. I'll be favouring my ankle." And he doesn't want A to be upset. But it might be worth it...

"Free form, shall we say?"

Kusuriyuri speaks up for A's benefit. "After, if you wish, we could use some reiki on it and A knows some medicines for pain, as well." He turns to A. "Is that not so?" He thinks that giving A something to do after will help him maintain control during.

"Willow bark, of course," A says, nodding. "Vervain. Meadowsweet, in a tincture. Turmeric in warm milk, if there is inflammation. Cayenne or aconite in a liniment. And," he smiles, "Garlic oil, for sprains."

He does the same, and pauses for a moment, before discerning that Mello is not going to move first.

So he does, with a kick, low, but quick as a snake.

After watching the two for a couple of moves, Kusuriyuri murmurs, "It seems they are well matched." Though some of the techniques are not familiar to him, he does see that they use some properly, with the spiritual implications behind them, and some not. He is curious about this.

"Mello had better not hurt him," A mutters. He doubts his tolerance could extend to L being injured.

Sleeper holds are not fun things to experience. L tries, valiantly, to smash his heel down on Mello's foot, but unless he's extremely startled by the pain it probably isn't going to do much good, except to sting.

Kusuriyuri is surprised by this move. He reaches over and takes A's wrist. "This is necessary," he murmurs.

Date: 2008-04-17 09:11 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] i-am-an-hero.livejournal.com
Kusuriyuri's gesture is necessary as well; A's already fidgeting with his wand. Oh, he wants to, wants to hex Mello for grabbing L like that...

Maybe he can get permission later.

Like hell he isn't going to try. It hurts, but he does his level best to throw him off, or failing that, at least get out from under him.

Near's presence is announced before he even enters the room by a series of violent sneezes. He's cursing under his breath as he walks in. Noticing that Mello and L are busy, he takes a seat quietly to watch.

Kusuriyuri notices the pale boy coming in. He doesn't think now is a good time to let go of A. When the two are finished fighting, he will offer assistance. But, for now, he continues to hold onto A's wrist while watching the fight that has moved into territories he is not familiar with.

A has to look away from the fight. Staring at the floor, he practices his breathing, trying to distract himself, soothe himself.
