ATTENTION ALL ARCHERS!
(/-_・)/D・・・・・------ → (;゜o゜)

This Sunday, the Archery Group will be meeting at the Barracks! So if you happen to use any weapons that contain the letters B, O, W - in that order, then head on down for a little well deserved practise with other archers! Hey, with this talk of a war coming up you'd be pretty stupid to let yourself get rusty! Or maybe if you're just interested in learning how to use a bow, you can come along and we'll show you the basics! It's a great chance to learn some new techniques from other archers. Well except me, I don't feel like sharing.

We're also open to anyone who wishes to spar against a bow user. Those flying arrows can be a right pain when you don't know how to deal with them! So I'm sure if you wanted to try beat one of us up good luck with that then you can come along as well. Or you can come along to laugh at the silly bow users, I don't really care it's not my responsibility. But on the plus side refreshments and stuff will be provided.

You can direct any questions to the 'President' of the group Rebecca. She was too lazy to do this herself so instead you have to put up with me. Though I suppose I could answer some questions too, but you'd much rather talk to a pretty young lady than a dirty old man right?

[A few moments later he scribbles something else onto the page.]

Also I'm bored, give me something to do that won't get me killed.

I could try flyin' with these little wings while I'm at it!

[Voice]

[latkje]

It can be better than flying with somebody else's.

[Voice]

[crisisrain]

Flyin' with somebody else's?

[Voice]

[latkje]

I've had a few "interesting" experiences with giant insects.

[Voice]

[crisisrain]

Haha, yeah I can imagine yer point there pretty well. [He's amused by the thought.]

Still though, suicide isn't the way I plan on dyin' in this place.

[Voice]

[latkje]

Are you planning on dying at all?

[Voice]

[crisisrain]

I'd much rather not, but I'm not doin' well on the whole "don't get yerself into trouble" part.

[Voice]

[latkje]

So you're starting up archery practice.

[Voice]

[crisisrain]

Keeps me out of trouble right?

But I'm not the one startin' it up, the group belongs ta Rebecca. She just didn't know to kick it off.

[Voice]

[latkje]

You find a bow you know how to aim?

[Voice]

[crisisrain]

[He waves his bow over the camera.]

I got my bow back!

[Voice]

[latkje]

You must be pleased. Maybe I'll show up— I like the idea of taking foes out from a distance.

[Voice]

[crisisrain]

Ya might as well if you've got nothin' better to do! I wouldn't mind sparrin' with ya~

[Voice]

[latkje]

Hah. I'd just like to learn.

[Voice]

[crisisrain]

Learn how ta fight archers or how ta use a bow?

[Voice]

[latkje]

Use a bow. I've fought archers before. I know how to do that.

[Voice]

[crisisrain]

But you've never used a bow?!

[Voice]

[latkje]

Not for any length of time.

[Voice]

[crisisrain]

Hmm, I guess I could show ya some basics. I've only been usin' a bow for barely 10 years myself, and even then it's still not a bow-bow.

[Voice]

[latkje]

I'm actually a remarkably quick study.

[Voice]

[crisisrain]

Good fer you, took me ages to learn. I'm much better close range than I am long but I accomodate both together.

[Voice]

[latkje]

It's difficult to blend the two. Considering your foe is either close by or far away.

[Voice]

[crisisrain]

Hit and run my dear friend.

[Voice]

[latkje]

It's the running part that can be problematic.

[Voice]

[crisisrain]

Runnin' is a blanket term fer dodging.
