*carefully dons the kevlar armour*

Whats this about the knife?

In the very first post in this conversation I mentioned a knife.

Dunno why, prob'ly just to sound threatening..
Don't worry. I'm not planning on using it,so you can take off yer kevlar armour.

That good, very comforting.

*carefully removes Chinese short sword from wall, just for insurance perposes. you understand*

That's a nice shirt.

Haha! Lets have an online sword fight!
En garde!~
*thrusts sword at Menzarses stomach*

Basically, what she means, is love me or die.

*Deftly parrying sword stroke*

Ha, I've been taught Chen style Tai Chi sword forms by a Master. I'll show ya.

*Swings sword around head and advances with caution"

I seem to remember T'ai Chi having NOTHING to do with swords....

LIAR!!



You know what, I think she likes you. (Lisa Woodhouse, special subject: stating the blinking obvious. )

*snorts but refrains from falling into hysterics because you just can't do that in sword fighting*

*squats down, throws away sword and attempts a rugby tackle*

*grins sheepishly*

I guess I'm not heavy enough for that.

*gropes frantically for sword (which is actually a knife, but why not call it a sword) before Menzarse dices her whilst she is unarmed*

Chen style Tai Chi actually has several different forms, some of which are unarmed and several are armed. There are forms for sword, saber and spear and several others.

Is there a knife one?

There is probably a dagger form, although I have never seen it myself.

This is a bread knife.

Are you going to kill me then?
*stares up from floor hopefully*

You're being very calm about Lisa's last posting.
*smiles helpfully*

(hint: if you kill her then she can't fancy you anymore) HOHOHO

Its alright to use the bread knife, I practice the sword form with a wooden spoon. Saves on poly-filler if I get too close to the walls.

No I'm not going to kill you.

And I'm carefully ignoring it.

Thanks.
*stands up picks up knife and throws it away*

*leaves forum, giggling as she goes*

You've got your own buisness to attend to I think.....

I'm not entirely sure whether there is any truth in the thing that Lisa said and you are carefully ignoring and even I am not going into too great a detail on.

Probably for the best.

And yet probably important.
