Hey. Sh*t happens and I'll be damned if I'm called out on it. IRL > RP. That's a rule of the RP world, in general. So with all due respect I must say that it isn't cool but that's not my main concern right now.
However, what is my main concern is you thinking that you can move like that in full armor of that kind. Or that you have even a slight iota of speed advantage over Alachei, with or without training. Especially since - you even said it yourself - she is lighter and more slender than you (though the twig thing actually was a minor oversight and you are correct in that, though as it is mostly insubstantial I will not go into specifics and detract from my point). Training doesn't make something physically weightless or massless. It is still very much physically there. You also try to move to counter my counter in a way that would realistically pop that arm right out, probably morel likely to straight break it from the elbow, but seem to completely ignore that fact; and I ignored it as well because I was being nice. Then at some point I'm apparently not there, you just bypass me - holding a lightsaber in the ready - and ninja my bodyguards who are obviously at range as they are holding guns. I didn't say they walked up to you and pressed the darn things into your temples, and professionally speaking that's not even remotely smart of a gunman, so I'd like a little respect to the fact that you outright killing them is completely unfair; NPCs or not. Lastly, biologically speaking Alachei has both a reach and flexibility advantage over you; that is not even in question. She is also naturally several fold more bestial than you by the simple nature of their biology so such reflexes and attack styles in line with yours (giving benefit of doubt here again) are hard to doubt. Finally she is adept at swordsmanship, and just because a saber isn't a physical sword, doesn't make it any less of a sword in the long run. Force isn't everything in battle. And again; all while I keep trying to play nice with you. /:3
You put all that together and your post was just highly, highly unrealistic. I'm sorry to say it because I have nothing against you but it's got to be said.
Edit: I'm almost positive I'm forgetting one thing, but I'm sure if it was that relevant you'll figure it out before I do. :X
I have no problem continuing this when I return to activity. I am not denying you your duel. I am simply postponing it for a few upon decision that this - this very discussion - would be unable to continue for too long with the minimal level of activity I'm about to hit after ths morning until the day after near years.
All I ask in return is that you don't play a game of tag and try to rewrite the rules.
YAH DONE DID IT NOW
OH LAWD YOU DONE DID IT NOW
Alright, I was trying to be sarcastic and passive aggressive..but now I'mma do me because that's the way I do things. Mandalorians have a tendency to wear their armor - a lot. Making them, really, really fast in it. Case and point, Jango Fett. Jango Fett was able to best several Jedi bare-handed while wearing his Supercommando-styled Beskar'gam. And this was before he was captured and stripped of the armor, so he wasn't wearing a lighter version, so don't bring up that homie. Maybe I confused the fact that you had my arm in a funnier way than what you envisioned, but I'm just so hippity-done-hoppity-glad that you somehow managed to outmanuever an Echani/Teras Kasi/Mandalorian unarmed-trained man's smash into the bar when he was directly behind you, being that you're just an apprentice, and oh yeah,
NEVER HAD TRAINING BESIDES THE ONE THAT YOU MADE UP AND SAID YOURSELF.
And, oh yeah, MAN DO I LOVE NPCS. Those are great, you know, pulling something out of your ass. Maybe you intended them to make a scene better. But you're not understanding, that look at the invasions and dominions and all that, regular soldiers are just chumps to Tracyn. He literally kills people for poodoos and giggles. Tracyn, in all the rps that I've had him in, have molded him into a fantastical and magical whirlwind of death. Granted that a force user like yourself would definitely be able to hold their own and maybe stand up to Tracyn, two goons with guns aren't going to outmanuever a guy who stabs people in the neck when they look at him wrong.
And I'm sorry, I didn't see your little MMA stats in your profile of your arm reach, I wasn't aware that you were Stefan Struve and could queen-smack bitches from across the bar. And as far as bestial goes, you clearly don't know the fact that there's rumors going around that Tracyn eats people. Ask the other Jedi! And as far as you saying that the force isn't everything in a fight, you're right. It's not. It's literally everything in a fight when you're fighting a person who uses it. Kind of a big deal. And don't come at me with that high-uppity bullpoodoo, I get talked down enough in my life outside the board that I don't need some guy doing that here too.
PS:
we got beef now, so you're probably gonna wanna drop that passive aggressive 'STILL TRYING TO BE NICE TO YOU /:3' thing. If you can't tell, I'm politel telling you I don't like you, and I don't think we should rp anymore because, well.
I don't like you.
Take it from here, flocka.
