[the video flicks on to a scruffy-looking man. some of you may have seen him around the edges of the campus or at meal times, but he hasn’t been here long. he frowns at the screen for a moment before speaking, his accent from the deep South.]

A’right, so I guess I’m s’posed to uh, advertise for the new class, or somethin’.

[he pauses, not quite sure what’s the best way to go about this. It’s all very new and unfamiliar to him and he looks pretty uncomfortable.]

I’m addin’ a survival course ‘n a defense class for anyone who wants it. It’s gonna be afternoons ‘n Saturdays. So… yeah.

[he looks as if he’s going to shut off the device and then hesitates. oh yeah, they don’t know him, he’s new around here. But if he’s going to teach he supposes they should have a name at the very least. still, this whole teaching thing is really weird to wrap his head around.]

Name’s Daryl by the way. Daryl Dixon.

Mostly I am interested in self-defence, and ways to overwhelm an opponent despite my, er, small stature.

[There is a tiny blush on Naoto's cheeks. He hates admitting how small he is physically.]

Otherwise, I am quite interested in anything you are willing to teach.

[quirks an eyebrow at the blush]

C'n work with that. Who knows, with enough practice y'could probably throw a man.

[shiroganeheir]

I know there are physics involved, and the correct angles and leverage and all, however, I am not the strongest nor the tallest person.

Thank you, and I will see you in class. Where is this to be held?

[faithaintdoneshit]

Height don't matter if ya handle yourself right.

[oh no another question that requires thought. he starts messing around with a haphazard pile of papers. can you tell this is not his element?]

Where did that summbitch go-- 206 looks like. At 4.

[shiroganeheir]

I will see you there, Sensei. And thank you.

[faithaintdoneshit]

[what the hell does that word mean... he looks vaguely confused between the thanks and the Japanese.]

Uh yeah.
