Jeckle is able to find out a great deal about the downtime habits of the trainees. Rock, Peacemaker and Dancer have the least downtime, tending to sleep, eat and train. Peacemaker is tireless, Rock has incredible endurance, and Dancer is a driven professional. The eat with Marv or the trainees from other teams. They nap or read an occassional book. They train in martial arts, etc. Their schedule is like an olympic athlete's.
Heckle warns Jeckle to stay clear of Foxglove, who has the most free time and spends nearly all of it spying. Dragon wastes time trying new things to eat, exploring the base and surfing the internet. Zee sits in her room alone, though she responds to invitations from Dancer and Peacemaker to eat together.
Vessel meditates, Veil researches wedding planning, and Merrow is an aquatic creature who spends her free time in the base pool.

Jeckle will move over and study her teams actions. she will take time to sit and chat with the kids. 'my brother says for me to stay away from Foxglove. think that should be your case as well. what is it about you three that brought you this far? Rock? what is it about you in particular? i need to figure it out. that is the clue'
*personally, she believes its the determination to succeed that is the true factor that cant be measured by science.
*after listening to their comments she will nod and state 'good job guys. keep it up. believe in yourselves. now i gotta find someone to spar with, i need to ponder a few other things . . excuse me . . '

" Yeah maybe." Khris replied, accepting the refill. Paying with a handsome tip, he slid from his stool and glanced at the card games. " So which one is more likely to let a westerner join in who isn't very good?"

The bartender nods towards a group of three soldiers. "Buy them a pitcher of beer and they'll deal anyone in."

The small size of the base comes in handy as Jeckle searches for a sparring partner. She finds... (who is she looking for?)

Khris glanced over and smiled, " Then pour one I guess and I'll give it a try. Thanks"
Once he had paid for the pitcher and tipped well again, he walked over and stood behind an empty chair. " Evening gentleman. The bartender claims that I can buy into your game with this. May I?" He set the pitcher beside the pot and waited for a reponse.

Jeckle knows that she's grown up sparring with Heckle, but figures that he's still on 'recovery'. she will observe the soldiers doing some sparring, and will wait to inquire with them if she can test her skills. barring that option, she will drift back to White and ask him bluntly 'come spar. i'm bored and need to see how far i've fallen in my ability to protect myself'

White shrugs and nods, "How hard do you want me to go? Are you going to wear pads or armor?" He stretches out and prepares to spar. Jeckle has seen his spinning, jumping style of martial arts when he practices with the kids. Lots of jump kicks, turns and spins.

NWhite smiled, "Don't worry, I'm not as strong as Marv or Roan. I can't beat Tiger." And he waits patietly for Jeckle's attack.

'great, somehow i'm thinking i'm gonna be in a world of pain today, but what the heck *she looks at him then will step in and send out a karate kick from the hip, followed by a backhand and then a few other tentative hits to sense how to take him down . .
(5 assorted attacks)
[dice=20+5][dice=20+5][dice=20+5][dice=20+5][dice=20+5]
*once she's dont that, she prepares for the return volley. this is just a way to suss out how hard and fast to go at it with White. the fact that she doesn't follow any style in particular shows . . but at he same time it shows that she can be relied on to put together odd combinations that most wouldn't think to work
(5 parrying blocks)

Lt. White, in his sleeveless t-shirt, carefully gauges Jeckle's strikes.
He starts out with five circular parries and then responds to Jeckle:
[dice=20+6][dice=20+6][dice=20+6][dice=20+6][dice=20+6]
He absorbs the backhand and another of Jeckle's strikes. As responses White uses a Forward Spin, then uses a Rotary Palm Strike, then Tripping, then a Backward Turn.
[dice=20+2][dice=20+6][dice=20+6][dice=20+6]
The forward spin doesn't work, but the rotary palm strike knocks Jeckle down and the trip prevents her from getting back to her feet. The last move, the backward turn, takes White out of combat range - putting some distance between them.

Jeckle grins as she gets up to the feet. this is turning out to be an exciting afternoon after all. she will slowly advance, and stays aware of White's advantage with his leaping and jumping. this time she will try a combination of 3 strikes, a kick and a tripping leg sweep before going on the defensive yet again and hopes he'll take a tumble this time instead of her.

This time White turns with each of Jeckle's strikes, preforming a kind of head over heels roll yet side to side, though he tries to backflip over the kick.
[dice=20+6] [dice=20+6][dice=20+6] [dice=20+6] [dice=20+6]
He gets out of everything nicely until the sweep and Jeckle takes him down as he tries to back flip away.
He rolls on the ground, regaining his feet with a smile.
He waits to see what Jeckle will do next, re-establishing his position without launching any attacks.

Jeckle . . nods to herself and steps back and bows to him
'thanks. i knew i was bad, just had no clue i was this bad. guess i'm glad that the kids never had to learn fighting from me. i'll leave that lesson to the teachers'
*she admits her defeat and will make her exit. a faint smile shows on the face till the back is turned and she walks away. she finally knows that the only thing she has to offer . . is the use of her photographic memory when its needed.
the construction of things is for her entertainment. with that now firm in her mind, she moves back to where her things are, and resumes her work on the 'hand' constructs of the arm unit she's building to maybe work with the legs and become a 4 appendage exo-skeletal frame
