So this is the safe place we were promised, huh? Oh, sorry -- safer. Except I was told safe, and I bet a good number of you were, too.

Three attacks in less than a year really doesn't feel safe, to me. And maybe all any of us can do is stop this kind of thing as it happens, but that's better than nothing, if worst comes to worst again and the staff don't manage to stop it before it happens.

So this is what I'm offering, more or less with permission from Scott.

Any of you who wants it, I'll teach whatever I can to help you fight your way out of trouble. Knifework. Shooting handguns - there's a range near here. Some hand to hand, but it's not my strongest point and I'll be working on improving that myself - and it's also not the kind you'd learn in any formal class.

So, if you want to take me up on it, you only have to ask and we'll start as soon as I'm healed. You know where I am.

The safe places, never really are. I was safe down in the tunnels too.

As for fighting, maybe we should get together and pass on what we know. I've got the hand to hand thing down, or at least enough to maybe help, and I'm sure you've got some tricks under your sleeve that I've never seen. It'll be fun.

We talked about this on Sunday but here's me putting up my hand for everything an anything you - any of you - got too teach. I found out the hard way I ain't as tough as I thought (wipe that smirk off yer face, Lee, or I'll do it for you. Ever seen that Matrix movie where that make the pretty boys mouth vanish?) an there's no fucking way their gunna do that to me again. Magic's all well an good, but it don't work on metal. An it seems like this place is on the paramilitary 'must attack' list.

I was never told this place was safe. Not a once. Color me cynical (though I prefer "realistic"), but there is no "safe" - especially not in the Hacienda Mutant. This place is Ground Zero whether we like it or not, because any good exterminator's going to start with the beehive and work their way out from there. Assuming otherwise is naive - believing it when you're told is just foolhardy.

Not an attack on you, Angelo, nor the school itself. It's just a fact of life.

I'm with the chickpea on this one. There is no such thing as safe, unless you count living in a hole, and that's hardly living nor always safe.

I'm getting beaten up enough by Sarah and Logan not to mention I'm my own weapon but thank you.

Speaking of, poppet, if you want someone to beat up what won't have any scratches at the end of the day, I'm always happy to volunteer.

You're so good to me. Pianos, tea and beating up? How does it get any better than that?

I can think of one way, but I know of.. two, possibly three people who would object strongly to the notion. Sorry, poppet - we'll have to stick to tea, music and fisticuffs.

I'm pouting. You can't see it, but I am.

I think. I'm not exactly sure what you're implying but I think it should include pouting at the lack of it.

You're not doing a very good job of the pretending thing.

It's the whole 'no imagination' thing. I tried.

No need, and . . . not a whole lot of interest, either. No offense meant, though, and best of luck to you guys with that.

I will pass for now. I do not think I would be competant at it.

That's why get someone to help you get competent. That's the point.

*shrugs* It's your decision though.

I think I would be incompetent enough to get someone else hurt.

Not likely. Besides, most of us are pretty hard to hurt.

Is it stupid to be scared that _I_ would get hurt?

No, but you'll just have to trust that whoever helps you out is going to be careful. I'm certainly not expecting you to learn the way I did.
