[ One Lily Potter shows up in-frame as soon as it focuses, for once not smiling but smirking just a little: it changes the plane of her face just like that. There's nothing really strange about the feed until she moves back: there in the background of the feed is one Remus J. Lupin laid out sweaty and graceless on the floor, though once he realizes he's visible he props up on his elbows to laugh. Before she speaks she reaches up to tie her hair back, glancing back at Remus before looking back to the camera. She looks a little sweaty and haggard maybe but otherwise fine: she was stressed and tired before, now she's exerted herself more. It's fine. There's still something lingering behind her eyes but it's hard to place what it is. ]
 
Hello, Tranquility.
 
[ Um. ]

Things have been a little stressful lately so it seemed like an idea to offer some contained and supervised sparring. Unfortunately I'm generally rubbish with physical combat—[ Felt pretty physical on my end Remus chimes in from the floor, only barely audible. It will be in a minute if you don't stop hamming it up Lily replies, sweet as anything while casually threatening a dude she lay out flat, before continuing. ]—but I was wondering if any other magic users were willing to give it a go. Nothing too intense, like I said, sparring, keep your skills in top shape.
 
I'm afraid I've already exhausted one taker. [ :) :) luv u Remus sorry she kicked ur butt ]
 
Anyway! We've overtaken a rec room on floor eleven so that we won't be in anyone's way or disturbing anyone. I'm medical staff so I can oversee if needed. We'll be here a bit, so feel free to stop by. Don't feel shy if you just want to watch, either.
 
Maybe it'll become a thing.

[ WIZARDS OUT. ]

My offensive abilities are such that what you're discussing wouldn't truly be valuable for me, but, well. It's been not very gently suggested to me on several occasions that it's past time I step up as a mentor, and it's very difficult to accidentally hurt me.

( a shrug. she is trying not to come off as condescending - she does genuinely think she could help. )

[lightmagic]

[ Lily is not offended, in any case! To be quite honest she is a little glad: she and Severus are the Bruisers of their universe on board, all things considered, and Severus far more than she: and he is, well. Having her present will be very beneficial. ]

It'd be appreciated to have you available, if I'm honest.

I've had a hand in training before, and I can be on hand to patch knees and kiss boo-boos as required. ( she's so droll it's slightly obnoxious, but in a more or less friendly way. ) I'd also be happy to teach anyone who feels they'd benefit from supplementary skills that can be augmented or not, as you like. Knives, hand-to-hand. The executioner I used to work with had a particular knack for augmenting his physicality in a fight in exceptionally creative ways.

( the casual reference to 'executioners' is probably indicative of why mila doesn't think it would be wise for her to let rip on people who need support and guidance. )

[lightmagic]

[ Yeah, executioners probably not the best thing to have around in a sparring club but hey, if she's gonna be around to mentor. ]

I think a lot of those that aren't confident in their magic could certainly benefit from having supplemental skills.

Same for those that are confident in, really.

( the first person to offer sass as to why she's not participating and is it cos she's scared is going to get their ass handed to them without even resorting to offensive magic. )

They're skills worth having. I've some proficiency with firearms and magical equivalents that might prove useful to anyone interested.

[lightmagic]

That's wonderful, I'm sure it'll be appreciated.

[ She is kind of sunshine-and-light whether it's affected at the moment or not, but it's kind of funny in context of her running a 'beating each other up kind of' magic duel ring. ]

[milagros]

( and she's a redhead and all. mila's smile tightens, peculiarly, but it's not because she finds it odd or funny that someone so lovely is doing something like this. )

Yes, well.

I'll make myself available.
