Oh, well. I've gotten a few throwing knives, sling bullets and of course the sling from the trainer. He seemed flabbergasted. Then again, I was surprised of my own aim! I never really practiced before. How strange. Anyways, let's go to Chop's Dojo.. I really hope he's nicer this time.

That guy looks hurt, you should help him.

If not, throw things at him.

Talk to the Kobold outside the dojo. If he's hurt, heal him.

>>324627
Heal the kobold, then go inside and ask Chop if he can give you basic self defense trai-HOLY FUCKBALLS WHERE DID THE HAT GO?

>>324617
While we're at it, may as well try throwing exceptions as well.

...back in seriousmode, try throwing the badhat. If you can land it on other peoples' heads that seems like a thing that would be useful.

>>324633

oh fuck. ohfuckohfuckohfuck

>>324635
that would be a great suggestion if not for the badhat suddenly missing D:

You know... I'm actually pretty nervous. Maybe coming here wasn't such a good idea, I mean, Chop can be really mean and I mean I might have good aim but you only need so much strength and weapon wise I mean it-

>>324639
>>324633
Ah! Um.. um.. I must have taken it off so it wouldn't get in the way firing and throwing stuff! Um.. I wasn't really around to see all the bad stuff that happened with the hat but maybe I should go back and get...

>"Chee? What are you doing here. Better be to practice your healing, runt. Start on me, someone is in need of an ass kicking."

Put hat on back
Heal Shabin
Heal other Kobold if needed

But, the most important part of that is... HAT ON BACK HAT ON BACK HAT ON BACK

Hopefully the wizard hat saved us a lot of trouble with that.

>>324642
First, throw heals.

Then watch what happens.

heal and watch.

>>324643
Agreed

hat is back. put it on back again and heal her

then how about instead of joining the battle, just heal the bonk out of everyone?

>>324642
Say you just wanted to check in on her training. Then toss her a heal and watch the spectacle.

>>324642
Heal her, then watch carefully. Hopefully you can learn that really cool spell Chop showed you.

Heal her up and give her the potion

>>324642
Yes, wear the hat on your back. Later, when we return, we will begin mental exercises to remember our hat always being next to our bed. That's where it goes and where it belongs.

Now, go heal Shabin.

And Chee, do you know how your healing works? Even if not, I think we can use a similar principle to give Shabin a "little boost". Like, make her stronger. Because watching her pummel Chop would be funny~

>>324669
Respond with a sling bullet to his nuts. It will be an epic that shall be retold for countless generations.

>>324671
This.

>>324671
Why would he have that sort of food on him? (derp)

>>324669
Fight him after healing Shabin. I would say you would lose for certain if it weren't for your awesome ranged weapon skill. Not that you should use them in this fight.

you can take him. just stay mobile. don't let him grab you and just make a lot of little hits.

don't shoot him in the dick. only assholes deliberately shoot people in the dick. are you an asshole, Chee? I hope not.

engage him all honorably-like. maybe you'll impress him.

Tell him you'd like to give it a shot.

also yeah don't shoot him in the dick.

>>324676
>>324678
Fine, retracting that second.

No, no sling bullets Chee - those can be lethal.

Maybe give a shot at whipping his ass old-style. You didn't know you'd be so good at projectiles, maybe you'll be good at that too?

Totally go David and Golith on him.

Might as well go for it. If you win, mad props. If you lose, well, it's not like he was expecting any different, so what've you got to lose?

Oh, but patch Shabin up first.

Aim for the knees! That'll teach him to beat the shit outta random people!

>>324669
Chop appears to have profoundly underestimated you. Show him the error of his ways with a good old DYNAMIC ENTRY.

>>324669
Shabin's idea of a good time is to swing around a pick-axe. She's probably way stronger than us. If anything, Chee, you're better off getting some good practice in by healing people.

I'm going to be the odd one out, I guess.

Don't fight the huge musclebold. He already beat you once. He would probably do it again.

...unless you think you can throw HIM.

I still don't think we should be giving Shabin the potion we received...

kick him behind the knee, hard.

>>324696
...sigh. Yeah, your physical strength isn't remarkable at all. We do know you're fast, though. Tell him forget about the duel, you can't beat him. Instead, tell him you want to practice dodging.

Or, ask if you can use weapons, since you can heal him afterwards. Then... well, use your ranged skill while demonstrating your agility.

Do kung fu to him.

you aren't trying hard enough! you are holding back for fear of actually hurting him. let loose and fight, he can take it.

Who said fight fair? That's ridiculous. You can bet that Chop would fight using his talents; why shouldn't you fight using yours?

>>324696
Chee's strengths:
Magic healing
Impressive aim

Yeah so unless you find a way to use the fine motor skills involved in your aiming talent, perhaps to attack his pressure points or something, your majorly screwed.

>>324687
Shabin intends to punch you in the face to train your healing, but Chop probably intends to punch you in places that are somewhat less painful.
If you DO turn out to be good at fighting then land a good hit or two on him followed by letting him smack you into a wall.

Shabin has her pride, and if you show her up it'll hurt her. She doesn't have skill because she relies on strength, and we can help her by showing how important skill is.
If you put up an ok showing before throwing the fight then you can tell her you got a lot of practice in not getting hit because you are so small and weak.
Then you can offer to teach her what you know about not getting hit without hurting her pride!

>>324696
Chee, to win a duel with an opponent of this size and strength over yours that isn't undead, you have to tire him out. Then look for weakspots. His crotch obviously isn't a weak spot so what you do is find a way to make him fall and poke him in the eye, then tickle his feet, stomach and/or armpits until he passes out from laughter, then poke him in the eye again, maybe give him a wet willy. His defense is too great for regular offense.

If you manage to get him to hit a wall and rocks chip off, throw 'em and his head for possibly real damage.

...by the way, do kobolds have nails? because you can make use of those if you do.

>>324696
Sling bullet to the balls. You can heal him afterwards and it's unlikely to be fatal.

If we're using the sling, try a location not likely to be lethal first. Just to estimate how much damage you'll be doing.

>"The small one's aim is exceptional, but the strength has no effect. The rock eater must be rubbing off on this tiny kobold, as it does not seem like the it knows when to quit! I suggest it learns."

god damn, okay yeah he is tough shit. grab the wizard hat and make sure the other one isn't on year head then help shabin up.

>>324721
Sling shot to the balls!

Boy, when I said tire him out I meant by making him throw punches and dodging them. Use the flow of battle, leave an opening (as in your face while standing completely still) then dodge at the last second while looking at what joints move such and heels, toes, and arms then attack there with the only thing that seems to be working, your sling. But then again, fuck offense, let him throwing his weight around be his own undoing. Your expending too much energy, make HIM expend the energy.

In fact, yeah just let him do all the attacking and you do all the dodging. No more offense for you. Lead his punches into walls, lure him by taunting the motherfucker, do not try to hit him at all. Try "The bigger the are, the harder they fall." Or "Ha, are you not up to chop to take me down without surrender?" or "Of course a chump like you would find surrender an option!" We'll apologize for these insults after battle, excusing ourselves by saying it was an attempt to get in his big head, which wouldn't be hard at all!

"it"? how rude. he doesn't even consider you a person! that's it, this one MUST be taught a lesson, one way or another. and you'll be the one to do it, Chee.

set fire to his shiny head

>>324721
Keep hitting the same spot.

trying to beat up chop is a poor choice. it's kind of like trying to free run before you can walk. i suggest leaving while you're still able to without assistance, especially given all he had to do to put your lights out last time.

that said, give shabin a hand.

Ugh. I think we should stop fighting. I think he's immune to pain, since well... you kinda knocked off some skin and made him start bleeding. Tell him you give up, obviously you can't beat him, then heal up everyone (including him).

Ask why Shabin was fighting him in the first place.

>>324721

Any more sling stones? Try the back of his knee again. Or his tailbone (just above his butt-crack, dead center.)

Tell him the only reason he's so strong? Is because one of his parents fucked a human. Then him in the Funnybone.

Just help out Shabin, get your wizard hat back, and don't bother fighting Chop anymore.

I just would like to say that I'm downvoting giving up with all my might, because the road of giving up is not one anyone should want to take, ever.

row, row, fight the power.

...Yeah this is why I had second thoughts when I was typing out "Holy crap, you're probably good at everything! Dojo time!"

Oh well, we COULD set him on fire but then that would be cheating.

Throw a rock at his throat. If he actually can deflect things off of his throat muscle then holyshit surrender.

regular practice chee. regular practice from now on. learn from chop AND more magic.and you will be awesome.

A perfect end to a perfect day~

Chop must have cast Sleep again! Truly a mighty Muscle Wizard.

At least Chee got some more practice healing. Not that it matters, since it's so... talented at skill checks.

I was scared and chop was really really fast.


But the day isn't entirely over yet!

People are pushing me to become so strong! Even though we're both tired, Shabin and I help each other train. Today was very productive. And because of all the help I'm getting from all my friends here, it hardly feels like I'm on the edge of getting banished. Or maybe that's because I'm getting punched very hard right now.

If I do get banished, then I hope that I'll have become strong enough to survive on my own. And maybe, just maybe, with everyone's help, that might just be possible.

>>324814
Chee, you may have no soul, but you just proved something:

Chop has no brain.


... That means you win forever xD

>>324865

why not?

>>324864
Bestest training ever.

>>324866
>>324870
You two need to READ IT AGAIN.

You know, it would likely be more productive for both of you if you practice dodging while she practices punching. After all, punching a still target is quite different from punching a moving one.

Shabin clearly already cares for us, we should use the (supposed) Love Potion on someone like Chop or the Grand Wizard Guy

>>324900
Or Necrobold

Lets not find out what Chop's idea of love is.

lets not use the potion now. we are not even sure if it works.

alas, this si wrong trainning. you should be at the dojo healing others and yourself OR at the magic academy smuggling magic scrolls for you to learn new magic.

Let's not suggest using the love potion on anyone before we get Chee's opinion. You guys know how easy it is for us to just tell them what to do. It'd be wrong to push Chee into that kind of relationship with anyone. It's their choice.

>>324922
Yeah, we should wait for Chee to express an intrest in someone herself before going ahead with using the potion.

here is a suggestion; last time someone told chee that they didn't exist, chee almost disappeared. how about drinking the potion and looking in a mirror?

Cheelop, every Kobold seems surprised you don't have any girl or boy parts or anus. I don't think Kobolds are born like this. Plus you have a hat that necromancers used to track you. All the kobold bodies in your last home were turned into zombies by necromancers. Plus you have no soul, even though every kobold born has a soul. Plus when you lost track of us voices the other day, your body started to fall apart into pieces. In your head you hear the spirits of many people. I think you may be made out of many boy and girl kobolds by necromancers, not born from one kobold.

Whatever you are, you make the most adorable punching bag. <3

>>324900
...How would that work for Chee, anyway? I mean, with the genderless thing and all, I'm not sure how they would really get any kind of romantic love to work. What gender of person would they even go after, and how the heck would they respond to it? (Pronouns are hard) Speaking of which, would somebody like Shabin respond negatively to it because a lot of people have taken to using the female pronoun for simplicity? And if they got with somebody, what would they even do? Chee's topologically homeomorphic to a sphere!
