I'm back. Did ya miss me?
 
[Standing upon the water's edge of Eltrut's beach, Denji can be found skipping rocks into the depths of the ocean proper. His focus on the crashing waves with his bare feet absorbed by the rushing waters, a stoic expression washed over his features as he sighs solemnly.]
 
So who else had shitty parents growing up, huh?
 
[A small pause before tossing another rock into the sea, plopping himself down onto the ground before turning his full attention towards the feed.]
 
I don't remember much about my mom she died when I was real young from a heart condition but at least she wasn't around to see how big of a prick my dad turned out to be. He was a real piece of crap all my life until he crooked and left me with his problems too. 
 
[Denji wasn't about to tell the masses what actually happened to his father after finding out none too recently but that was besides the point here. A half amused burst of laughter erupts as he tries to lighten the mood a bit grinning fiendishly.]
 
I can't be the only one around here with an asshole for a parent so what's all your stories?

What do you mean by that? You're being targeted?

And what is 'kung fu'?
emet_sulk: (28 I had high hopes for you)

[ He tries to visualise a 'kick ass' fighting style combined with chainsaws. Horrifying. Like Grynewaht but worse. ]

Something akin to a monk, then. I see. Does the movie you gave me feature one with chainsaws then?

While the discipline has evolved over time, monks of the modern era are - or rather, traditionally were - adherents to a particular god known as Rhalgr. They would meditate and cultivate their bodies, honing their strength by opening 'chakras'. A monk of Rhalgr, with all their chakras opened, was a formiddable opponent to meet.

So, yes, they could throw a haymaker and put you on the chirurgeon's table for a week if they so wished. I look forward to seeing how this kung fu compares.
emet_sulk: (37 fond of them are you?)

Rhalgr is one of the twelve gods of Eorzea. And yes, I suppose he is a 'super powered monk who can punch through walls and shit'.

[ Sorry not sorry, Rhalgr. You chose that image! ]
emet_sulk: (27 you disappoint me)

I'm a mage, not a pugilist. I can teach you sword or stave but not the way of the fist.

Besides which, I suspect you may not have the patience or discipline to master monkhood.

Two minutes is not patience.

But I suppose I must agree: a chainsaw is certainly effective and ripping open your opponents and tearing traditional weapons out of their hands. Not that this means much if, say, the nimble knife wielder can get inside your range and stab you.
