[ The feed opens to show Ozpin within the sitting room of his manor in Gaze, hands folded over his filigreed walking cane. The glow of the moon combines with his overwrought wallpaper to make the background luridly green. He smiles thinly over his tinted glasses; he seems tense about something offscreen. ]
Good afternoon, everyone. I recognize it has been some time since I last discussed my services on this network... and so I wish to put out a call once again. For those who wish to hone their skills in combat, my name is Professor Ozpin, and I am glad to welcome students new and old.
As it happens, I have met with [ and here's an obvious flicker of annoyance ] several other combat instructors in town, and we have devised an event which all might enjoy. [ He turns his attention to the right, and the camera pans with him, to another silver-haired man. ]
Thank you, Professor Ozpin. [ He nods, turning back to look at the camera with a warm smile. ] Hello, everyone. I'm Terry Silver.
We'll be holding a martial arts tournament with both armed and unarmed divisions. We hope to hold it sometime in May, just for some friendly competition and a bit of motivation to learn and improve your self-defense skills. [ Will it stay friendly? Probably not. ]
All three of us will be offering lessons separately, and if you're a teacher with at least one student you can sign your own school up as well.
[ He looks to his right, clenching his teeth as he tries not to look too annoyed with Johnny. ] Anything you'd like to add, Sensei Lawrence?
[ Johnny moves in front of the two men who tower over him so he’s the prime focus of the feed from here on out. ]
Listen up, nerds.
This tournament is going to have some ground rules for anyone who wants to participate.
Rule number 1: No powers, magical bullshit, or any other crap like that. A real badass doesn’t need those in a fight. He- Or she beats the crap out of her opponent with their own two hands or a weapon in this case.
Rule number 2: These fights aren’t an all out brawl. This is going to be a test of skills. You’ll be awarded points in a match. You need three points to win. You’ll be awarded points for a clean hit to the head or body.
Rule number 3: No murder. This should go without fucking saying. We’re here to kick ass and take names. A real winner knows when he’s won.
And finally- Now, Paul!
[ The camera shifts slightly as a human-sized stuffed ninja wearing a “Super Awesome Ninja School” t-shirt is thrown into frame. Johnny leaps up and kicks it in the chest and out of frame before landing on the ground in one solid motion. ]
This is an open challenge to any of the other combat schools looking to start up. Next month, be there or be square.
[OOC: Green font is Ozpin, Blue is Terry, Red is Johnny.

Do you like it?
Yeah. I didn't want to confuse the branding from your little ad.

no subject
And yeah. At least until I get the point across.
I'm willing to call us even now if you'd like.
But one of your students seems awfully pumped to compete.
So I hope we still get the chance to see who's students wipe the floor with the others.

[ But things being called even has it's appeal. Not that it will make Sasuke act... nicer... ]
Hn. I should probably thank you for roping me into this whole thing simply because of how excited Shōyō is alone. It's good to see him have somewhere to really focus all that energy.
no subject
...But not Eagle Fang- I might save that for something later.
[Johnny's had his fun being an asshole and Sasuke is going along with it. He's at least... making an attempt to be civil.]
Don't mention it. Gotta admit that kid's probably going to give everyone a run for their money if he's half as good as he talks.
It helps when the kids have a chance to compete and really show what they've learned. At least it helped me out a lot when I was young.

[ AKA he's boring as fuck, someone let Naruto name the school that's not a school. ]
It's new to me, honestly. We did sparring matches with other potential genin at the academy, but the only direct competition we got was in our exams. And those weren't... friendly competitions. I'll be interested to see how it helps their overall training in the end.
