2nd Strike | Video | UN: 1stStrike | KARATE WAR BEGINS
[ 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.

[Johnny has no doubt that he's probably the real thing. But he was stubborn and he wasn't about to stop razzing the man even if he could kill him.]
That's fair. What exactly did this place end up doing to you?
no subject
I'm making objects appear from nothing, and I can move things with my mind. My mind's aim sucks, and the only thing I can say about the stuff I'm making appear is that it's related to my mood or something I need. Like when I was angry, it was weapons. When I was hungry, it was food. And when I was barefoot, it was shoes.
[The two combined could be a real problem in the ring, given her aggressive nature when she fights.]
What about you? Did you get any new powers?
I'm so sorry for the wait here!
Might need to get you to help me make more shirts for the ninja school if we can get that on lock down.
[Johnny looks a little confused for a moment and then thoughtful. He hadn't really noticed anything extraordinary he could do here.]
Nothing flashy. I'm just better at pissing people off than I was at home.
[He's got an aura that makes people around him more aggressive.]
So no real change.
No worries!
[At least it'll be happening on purpose, then.]
I've thought about things that annoy me and made it happen, too.
[So that's one step toward achieving control.]
