[u][i][b]Dojo Courtyard, 1117 hours[/b][/i][/u]
*In the Dojo Courtyard, Mortar can be seen fighting with a shadow clone. The moves he uses seem unlike what he normally does, they seem to be more for defense as opposed to offense. When Mortar throws the shadow down it just gets back up, as if it weren't harmed at all. It's only when Mortar locks the clone's arm behind him and pins him to the ground does the clone stop fighting. Mortar gets up, brushing his hands a little, and looks at the shadow as it dissipates into nothingness*
Well, it was a little stiff this time, let's do it again.
*Mortar summons another shadow clone and continues fighting it.*

Yeah, that was a simulation... That wasn't ACTUALLY me. However, that did kinda... suck
-
"Why take offence when you can have blackmail?"
-
Eh, I'm an open book, not many people don't know much about me
-
"It would still reduce your authority with local authority when the locals find out you lost to a glorified sci-fi action man."
-
Well it was all fun and games, not much to have on me. Plus... Everyone saw it.
-
"But if you ever decide to go placed outside Takati.."
-
You Tatakai. So? It's not THAT big a deal. I just lost by a little bit to him. We never, you know, actually FINISHED the fight
-
"Say that to the red mist that is now your simulation ' s neck."
-
That's exactly it, a simulation. That doesn't reflect me
-
"A simulation run by one of the most powerful computers in the universe [i]is[/i] virtually exactly you."
-
Well... There are some flaws in any computer. *He chuckles slightly as he sits on a wooden bench*
-
"And biological computers are no different."
-
yes. And you have some flaws as well.
-
"I will admit sometimes I forget to save embarrassing simulation logs for blackmail purposes."
-
Yeah, that is a BORING thing to use against you
-
"I also sometimes forget to play dead for some rather endearing weaponised cavemen to humour the dojo leaders."
-
*He chuckles again* Humorous.
-
"T'was as rather enjoyable to see the little man shoot me, all melodramatic, then wait, as I got distracted for a full five minutes for me to fall over and pretend to die."
-
*he chuckles once more* Then why did you participate?
-
"Everyone else was asleep. He didn't even attempt to take himself seriously after that. He's now on my personal strike force I assembled for attacks I can't do myself but need to be covert and arn't authorised by anyone."
-
Ohhh... Alright
-
(Theres a small commotion on the street a few meters away, then awkward pause for five seconds, untill, finally, a young man with blonde hair jogs up to the two. the figure was not impressed.) "I give you augmentations normal men can only dream of, and when I tell you to tap someone on the shoulder and back up what I said, you trip over a bowl of [i]saurkaut[/i]?" "Sorry, boss."
-
Wait, wait... WHAT?
-
(The man turns to mortar) "As he said the thing about the strike team, I was supposed to tap you on the shoulder and say something like 'I can second that' But I fell over a bowl of saurkaut someone left lying around."
-
That's... Random
