[LOCKED TO BATMAN]

Hey, I wanna fill you in that I trained Batgirl for what has been unofficially coined as "Operation: Avenge Jinx." From what I could tell, she's a good fighter both tactfully and physically. She nearly had me there for a couple of times when I thought I was getting ahead, too! I'd advise you to make sure that her partner and herself are working together, since that can help out significantly when she fights. Other than that? She's pretty awesome when it comes to brawling!

[LOCKED TO KAT]

Hey, I'm here on Tiffany's behalf that she's helping out with the unofficial plan known as "Operation: Avenge Jinx". She's good with her spells, however I'd try to raise her confidence in battle so that she's not so nervous. Mm, I'll keep on working with her so that I can boost her morale, but she's getting there. She's not there yet, but she'll get there soon enough!

[/END LOCKED]

Is that so? Hmmm... Well, she definitely could use the practice of casting under pressure.

Give her a bit of wide berth in front of her while she's casting, and she should be a great asset to you.

I shall!

What have you done in the means of training her, so that I know for future reference?

Re: [Locked]

[scrapperzen.livejournal.com]

I've been teaching her proper energy channeling so that she can harness her inner power to fuel her spells, and I've taught her several basic cantrips.

I've also been teaching her to keep track of what kinds of errors she makes that cause other effects to manifest, so that she can realiably recreate those effects should she need to.

She may be a potent pyromancer someday, if I do say so myself. XD

Re: [Locked]

[soul-on-light.livejournal.com]

I see. So, you've taught her meditation, I take it?

Hm, I'll keep a note of what errors she does make so that we can turn them into awesome things!

Pyromancer, you say? That... might as well be useful.

Re: [Locked]

[scrapperzen.livejournal.com]

I've taught her the theory behind it. Whether or not she's taken it to heart yet, that's another matter. She's young, and it's certainly not an easy thing to accomplish. She's also got severe confidence issues, which doesn't help.

But she's got great things ahead of her, I can tell.

Re: [Locked]

[soul-on-light.livejournal.com]

Hm, well that's another thing I'll have to work on with her! A motto I live by is train the mind first, then the body second. And, yes, she is young... Although, I'll work on her confidence issues slowly! I wasn't captain of my team back home for nothing.

I think the same thing.

Re: [Locked]

[scrapperzen.livejournal.com]

I prefer to teach mind and body in unison, myself. Especially with the changes that have hit so many mages in coming here, it's vitally necessary to understand the flow of your own body's energy before you try casting your spells once again. I really think that's the biggest hurdle that a lot of people are hitting...

Once that's caught up on, other teachings can follow. :)

Re: [Locked]

[soul-on-light.livejournal.com]

If it helps to understand where I'm coming from, I'm a shaman and, well... my furyoku is something that flows through my body constantly, so it's kinda like being a mage in that sense.

Of course, I'm not saying your tactics are bad.

Re: [Locked]

[scrapperzen.livejournal.com]

Oh, I didn't imagine that you were. Everyone's got their own methods, after all.

I look forward to seeing what you have to offer Tiffany. :)

Re: [Locked]

[soul-on-light.livejournal.com]

Indeed they do!

And thank you! I won't let you down!

[punchymcbats.livejournal.com]

She's good at what she does.

Keep me informed.

[soul-on-light.livejournal.com]

I shall.

Can I ask you what you've done in regards to train her, so I know for future reference?

[punchymcbats.livejournal.com]

I myself have not trained her, but apparently she has natural reflexes for combat. As well, I have trained her in several styles of combat both armed and unarmed.

[soul-on-light.livejournal.com]

I see.

What weapons have you taught her to handle?

[punchymcbats.livejournal.com]

Primarily the equipment that we handle on a daily basis. Rangs, grapple hooks, the works.

[soul-on-light.livejournal.com]

Okay, then!

Would she know how to wield a sword?

[punchymcbats.livejournal.com]

I've most likely taught her how to defend AGAINST a sword. Not use one yet.

[soul-on-light.livejournal.com]

Hm... alrighty.

That should make training a bit more simpler.

Is there anything else I should know about her?

[punchymcbats.livejournal.com]

There is. She is extremely well motivated in her goals. It'll make things easier.

I can also spare a couple hours a day helping before I have to get back on the Joker's erratic path.

[soul-on-light.livejournal.com]

...ooh, I always love a passionate person!

That would be appreciated, thank you!

[punchymcbats.livejournal.com]

Then I'll see you later when I come by to assist.

[soul-on-light.livejournal.com]

Okay, see ya!
