[He looks bored. Unremarkable. Not quite plain, but not very memorable either, unless you count his messy hair and that he looks like he's been sleeping for a while. He seems to remember something and smiles pleasantly.]

Hi! I have an important question. It might be the most important question I ever ask. It's really important!

Okay~. Does anyone know of someone willing to teach a person with no skills to speak of how to fight? I can't do anything! It's a wonder I'm still here.

[sizhui's still getting used to this whole video thing, so the camera is a little off-kilter at first, but once he gets it straightened out, he smiles in kind.]

I could teach you. I know both hand-to-hand combat and swordplay.

You must be really skilled and strong! [He claps his hands together, looking pleased.]

I’m useless when it comes to a sword. I barely know how to hold one. Is it like holding a big knife?

[he politely inclines his head with gratitude (and to maybe hide the way his face pinkens slightly but—)] Thank you.

That's why I'll teach you! And I would say no. With the sword being as large as it is, you would wield it differently in comparison to a knife.

You're so kind to teach someone as useless as me. I can't claim my best will be any good, but I will do my best!

[...] I never thought of it that way! You're right. How long have you been practicing?

Your best is all you can do! And give yourself some credit, I'm sure you will be alright once you learn what you're doing.

[he can't say he knows how to properly wield a knife in comparison to a sword, but he could probably teach him how to wield a knife, too.] I've been practicing since I was very little. Probably four or five.

Do we really need to know how to fight? {She has some abilities, but she isn't a warrior!}

You can probably do fine without learning. But don’t you think there’s some advantage to it?

What if we can't do it? I'm just a Fairy. We're not made for fighting.

Well, what do you want to do? And what kind of fairy?

I'm an Orchid Fairy. I take care of flowers.

I want to go home.

I dunno if I can teach, but Neechan taught me and I barely knew anything! And I'm not the only one! But it's not just her, loads of people. Sizhui-san up the thread looks really strong!

Who’s Neechan? I bet you could beat me in a fight!

Everyone is really strong~. And doesn’t he? I can’t imagine being good at two different fighting styles!

Evangeline-neechan is my cool and amazing big sister! Flynn-san was actually the first person to teach me how to fight, but he only taught me sword stuff. And after he was gone, Neechan started teaching me. She's a really hard trainer, though.
