>>41171474 Move out of the way... dodge the attack. If it doesn't hit, then it doesn't matter. Huh. That's a different way of achieving the same goal, now that I think about it.
>It certainly made a lot of sense. Maybe if he'd moved out of the way of the explosions, it wouldn't have mattered, and he'd have won! And come to think of it, that girl was doing the same thing - moving out of the way of his spells and thrown objects to make them not matter! No way was he going to stand for that, that had to be why she beat him this time around!
>Gripping Ragnar's shoulders with his not-particularly strong hands, he stared seriously at the guy he'd just slammed into a wall with a look of odd determination on his face.

Teach you how to dodge? You know, you're gonna need to let me actually attempt to hit you, ya know. Can't teach you anything if you keep throwing me into walls...
>It was a little way off of his initial point, but this was probably something he'd actually have a good chance of teaching, rather than some magical direction crap.
Still, that'll be easy! I can teach you how to dodge no problem. Just leave it to me.
>He grins and points a thumb at his face. You can practically see the glint of light on his teeth.

>>41171916 >There was that look, the one that always said 'this is going to be a bad time' or 'we're going to get into trouble'. Sometimes it was actually kind of interesting, Dad was always very controlling of what he was and wasn't allowed to go and do for some reason which meant it wasn't easy to go out and do things.
>Ragnar probably got the worst of the lectures. Mort remembered various quotes along the lines of him being 'too free-spirited' or 'not careful enough'. Honestly, he couldn't tell who was right.
>Whether exciting or not, that look always meant trouble, whatever the form.
Right... this is going to be the same as the punch-training, right?

Yeah, pretty much. I mean. Instead, I could throw things at you from a distance. I'll probably end up doing both, but either way, you'll need to have that field down, or else they won't even get close to you.
>Ragnar makes his way over to a chair and sits down, he had to make a vague attempt to not strain himself, and maybe sitting down could trick the rest of his body into thinking it was all right!
Maybe for starters, it'll be better if I just throw things at you. Less chance of getting critically injured...

>>41172918 Hrm... well, probably best not to do it in here. There's not much to throw around aside from the medical equipment and I think we've broken enough of the room for one day.
>The way he talked about it almost suggested he thought himself free of blame, when really he was the one who'd set up the fall in the first place. At least his Dad hadn't come in to complain about the noise.
>Wait... he hadn't? That was odd. Normally if something happened he'd be all over it, trying to understand what happened and giving lectures on how to behave. Hell, sometimes he even took notes, yet not a hint of notice this time around. Was he busy with something else? Maybe it was a bigger deal than worrying about a small room, this time.
>Not that it mattered to Mort all that much. Hell, it was almost a blessing, being left alone for this long.
Maybe if we could get outside it'd be easier. If things screw up, at least you'll have the grass to land on.
>And again, not even a single thought towards 'if things went wrong' for himself. At least his confidence hadn't taken as much of a beating as his body had.
