"It's fine! It's fine." Thane reassured her even as he was panting, still clearly in pain. He grimaced as he kept both hands on his kneecap, wiggling it until with a sickening pop it twisted back into its proper place. He sighed. "Does that sometimes. Just need some ice for swelling." He cursed softly at his horrendous performance. "That was awful." |

"You actually did rather well. You musst remember that I have been in battle, ussing only what I had been born with, ssince I hatched. I am thirty earth cycless old, Blindman. I have more experience than you." She crosses her arms and coils up across from him. At least now he'd gotten free of the circle of scale that'd been a ring around him for so long. |

"You're thirty? You kidding me?" Thane shook his head as he sighed again, limping over to a bench. He picked up a water bottle and splashed some water on his face, wiping off the blood. |

"Doess that ssurprisse you?" She grins and slithers over to coil up next to the bench, her tongue flicking rapidly again as he wipes the blood off his face. "It iss hard for other sspeciess to tell my age... sscaless do not wrinkle." |

Thane glanced over at her and shrugged. "Just surprised me." He hoped in six years he'd be as good a fighter. Or at least a consistently decent one. He toweled off and stared at the gym, holding the cool water bottle against his kneecap until the medic came with some ice. What did I do wrong? He kept wondering. When did I start falling apart? He unscrewed the lid of the water bottle and took a quick swig. |

The naga stays silent for a moment. Thane likely hadn't started his carreer of murder by killing the person in charge of making sure he was born in the first place, so she had plenty of practice. "We can continue once the pain iss over." Shissar orders some other BoE staff to return the gym to its normal state while they wait, the naga watching them all as if she were watching mice. They weren't agents, they had nametags. To her, they were little more than mice. Thane, however, she viewed as an equal. |

As much as Thane hated to admit it, continuing soon wasn't really an option. He'd strained the knee to the point of dislocation. That usually meant he needed to take it easy for at least the rest of the day, if not longer. Which generally didn't include sparring lessons. He said nothing, however, and watched the others work on cleaning up the obstacle course Shissar had set in place. Unlike Shissar, Thane hardly felt he was on equal footing with her. If anything, he sympathized even more with these workers than anyone else here. He was an agent, sure--but just barely. Physically he was peak, but mentally...? Not the greatest, and he knew it. His brother, Kale--his younger brother--had an IQ at least ten to twenty points above him. Compared to that, Thane felt like an ape. At least the Brotherhood was gracious enough to not throw him in the West Tower with the rest of the meat-heads of the organization. Rumor had it West was just as bad as prison. Maybe worse, because if someone took you out at West, people would just pretend nothing had ever happened. Forget about proper burial. Thane dabbed his forehead with the towel while he mused, though with his hunched posture and perpetually angry looks, it seemed more like he was sulking. Which he was, too, on the inside. Well, maybe seething was a better way to describe it. Seething mad at himself, his own failures and ineptitude. |

Had Thane voiced his concerns the naga would have addressed them, probably along the lines of saying that he wasn't at West because of the fact he used more than just brute force. The fact was Thane hadn't done incredibly badly, regardless of what he thought. Shissar would be putting in a good word for him in her evaluation of the training. Sure, he did need more practice, but she was certain he would do well. And ofcourse Shissar and he shared that in common: the same constantly angry face. Though hers was more due to lack of ability to do anything else. |

As the medic rose from examining Thane's knee and handing him an ice pack, Thane stopped him. "How bad is it?" he asked, though he already knew the answer. The medic hesitated, glancing at Shissar before replying, "Not bad; it's a simple dislocation. But I wouldn't suggest doing any heavy labor for the next few days. Take it easy, keep it iced, and let it heal." They paused long enough to fish a packet of pills from their first aid satchel and tossed it to Thane. Thane opened the package and gulped down the pain medication. Experimentally, he stood up and put a little weight on the leg with the bad knee. Nothing he couldn't push through, but he had a bit of an uneasy feeling using it again. It still didn't feel totally well again. |

"That will be all, medical officer." Shissar gives the medic a nod before turning to watch Thane trying to stand. She studies him, watching his reaction to the injury. Perhaps another, impromptu evaluation of the agent's abilities: Could he function while under the pain of an injury? She hadn't meant to hurt him that badly, but perhaps it would prove Thane an even better agent than she thought before. Or he'd crumble under the stress. |
