This has ended up getting put on the back burner with everything else that's happened lately, but I finally secured space and firearms for the class. First lesson will be Friday at 6pm at [address] Mostly the basics this week, I think, but there'll be some practice in there too. So, if you're interested, leave your name (I don't particularly care if it's real or not, just what you'd prefer I call you), your level of experience with firearms, and whether you'd be interested in hand-to-hand training as well - that's being put on hold until I determine what the teacher to student ratio is like, as smaller groups are better for that.

There will be a small fee, probably about $15 a class, just to cover ammo and firearms rental. And as I've said before, if I don't think I can trust you with a firearm, I will not teach you.

Lessons in firearms? Interesting. In this city, I am sure there are many who could use the training.

Very much so - this city is a dangerous place. And I have experience training others and some free time to fill.

Interested yourself?

Indeed, I believe we can agree to that. Very kind and crafty of you, sir. You train soldiers, then?

Ah no, no need. Suppose I cannot call it my main expertise, but I've handled firearms for many years now.

Special operatives, actually. I don't have a great deal of respect for the army - they tend to put too much focus on obeying without question and following regulation. I prefer creative thinking in my subordinates.

I see. Yes, very true most of the time. Creative thinking in subordinates is sure to make things much more interesting, at any rate.

And hmm, perhaps I should organize a range night for those of us already skilled with firearms. Never too old to learn something new.

True, even if sometimes close enough.

Sounds interesting, it's always nice to meet new people and keep the pieces aired. I don't use my guns nearly enough these days. A pity, really. I put such good work into them too.

I'll see what I can get set up.

And I'm not sure we've been introduced - I'm Tseng.

No, strangely enough no. A pleasure to make your acquaintance, Tseng. A friend of Miss Sheska, yes?

Jack Alescio DeAngelis, but please, just call me Sparda.

Yes, she's mentioned you a few times. You're Eva's husband as well, correct? A pleasure to make yours, as well.

That is correct. I hope my dear wife hasn't given you any trouble?

Hah, no. She's an interesting, engaging woman.

That she is can't deny that. Not to mention very good with guns, speaking of which.

Heh. That was how we met, actually. Her shop is quite impressive.
