The weird thing where we're suddenly bad at stuff this week - I'm not bad at uh... [being a jock] physical stuff right now so I need to teach you how to use a knife sooner rather than later, come on.
[OH - ]
Because I got a scalpel for you, but just for Thursdays. I forgot to mention.
[and - hm, terrible - mineo actually looks both a little surprised and touched about this. but rather than unpack that feeling he's throwing an arm around takeru's shoulders]
[there's just a little bit of a laugh and - yeah, he's gonna be in a good mood for the rest of the practice
admittedly this will probably just make takeru wanna stab him more]
Yup! Come at me - though if you're aiming to incapacitate, you should aim for...
[he pauses and then pokes slightly above his own shoulder] Here, to limit shoulder movement.
[points at the bicep, drawing a line across it] Here, to make it harder for them to have enough strength to hurt.
[another line across the inside of his elbow] Here, to sever connection to the forearm.
[he pauses thoughtfully, and then draws one vertical line down his face] This'd cause a lot of pain - so it'd probably be enough to disorient somebody.
[and then he moves to stretch]
Let's start there, yeah?
[there are ways to kill somebody with a knife but mineo would rather not teach takeru those until it's really necessary]
[ he's still bristling about it, so it is probably best to not teach him a worse spot.
but he looks down at the knife in his hand, then back to mineo, and he'll then rush to aim the knife up towards his face because wow he is shorter i hate this. ]
[he is much shorter - but mineo will just lean back before the knife can actually scrape him. this could admittedly be pretty bad if he wasn't capable yea]
Hmmmm -
Try kneeing me in the gut first next time. If I collapse forward, it'll be easier to aim for the face.
[he's trying to explain without calling takeru short]
[well - it works! he can't completely dodge an elbow, so to minimize damage all he can do is try to put space between them, curling more inward. he does move to grab takeru's arm though]

What was wrong with it?
