As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    Well, this had been an absolute shitshow of a fiasco. "Yeah, I'll. Get going," Ridley agreed. Be careful. The same advice Powehi had given him, and Ridley had immediately fucked that one up. "Sorry," he added, and hurried off as fast as he could without looking like he was running away...

    What? "What?" Ridley said. No, he'd been wrong actually, the only thing worse than endangering people through his own carelessness was doing that and then having those people blame themselves for it. "You don't have anything to apologise for. It was a sparring match, not a life-or-death...

    "That was all of it," Ridley said, trying not to shap. Koa was using the same calm, soothing tones on him that he'd used on the shadow drapion, and it was pissing Ridley off. He wasn't a monster who needed coaxing. "Just that he would have to alter me, that it was temporary, and that I could...

    "I don't know!" Ridley said defensively. "I didn't do it on purpose! Powehi didn't exactly tell me what he was doing to me! Just that he'd have to alter me, and that I'd have to fight a lot in order to fix it." He said, "I didn't mean to do it." Not the shadow move, and not scaring Jade the way...

    Well, Ridley felt kind of like shit now. He'd thought, earlier, that he couldn't remember ever having seen Jade fight. Now it occurred to him that maybe he hadn't seen her because she hadn't been fighting, at least not as frequently as Ridley and Koa had. Ridley might have had a low opinion of...

    Ridley watched as Jade once again ignored him and threw most of her attacks at Koa. Why was she..? ...because they knew that Koa was the greater threat, Ridley realised. If they took Koa down, the battle was effectively won; Ridley didn't have the tenacity to keep fighting on his own. Hot on...

    That was - it had been an accident. He hadn't meant to do it. Now that he'd touched it once, Ridley could feel the shadow energy lurking inside of himself. It responded readily to his attention, bubbling to the surface - Horrified, Ridley drew back from it as quickly as he could. Was this what...

    Ridley shivered as he was Jade's Chilling Water doused him, leaving his disguise uncomfortably sodden. He threw himself at her again, mostly out of spite, and then backed off for a moment. He needed to think here, not just react. Maybe if he timed it just right... Steven zipped past in pursuit...

    "Alright, let's do this," Ridley said, trying to sound more confident than he actually felt. Even Ridley knew that beldum weren't the strongest offensively, so if Koa was going to be focusing on Steven, then Ridley would try to hinder Jade's ability to attack. He tried to make himself look as...

    "I don't know! I'm not good at this stuff!" Ridley protested. In his previous battles nobody had needed to discuss strategy beforehand; they'd all just somehow known what needed doing, and how to do it without getting in anyone else's way. They probably couldn't rely on whatever weird heroic...

    "A double battle sounds good," Ridley agreed. "Those pairings are fine by me, if everyone else agrees." He'd battled alongside Koa several times before, but he couldn't recall ever seeing Jade fight at all. During most battles Ridley could expect to be fighting with someone he knew against...

    Yeah, no way was Ridley going to be talking about that. He was feeling bad enough already without everyone else deciding to weigh on what an idiot he was. "'S fine," he lied absently, turning to wave at Jade as she joined the group.

    Ridley had considered simply not attending the training session. He'd been so enthusiastic about the idea before, so hopeful that it would solve the problems he was having, even if the only solution ended up being a boost to his self-confidence. But considering again now, with a clearer mind, he...
