[ the video comes first!
heine films from where he's sitting on top of a mailbox on a street corner. it's a slow pan across an empty intersection just northeast of the bank—the bank building itself is visible, as a landmark for where he is, but he also makes a point of filming as much down each street as he can manage. master film director heine is not, but at least he manages to pick out a few identifying storefronts so people can triangulate themselves!
there's no talking, or really any sound at all (which for heine is still one of the worst parts of this place). once he's filmed enough that he thinks the location has been conveyed, the video cuts off.
when he uploads it, it's with a text accompaniment: ]
let me get this out of the way first: i'm not trying to die
and i also don't want to kill anyone [ today, anyway! ]
but if you're also here without the weapons you're used to
don't want to get stuck with your thumb up your ass if shit goes wrong
and think you could use a good fight to keep your skills sharp
then hopefully you can figure out from the video where to go
if you can't then [ he is judging you slightly ] ask for directions
rules:
1) i have knives but if you want to use something else that's on you
2) no sparring bullshit, we fight like we mean it
3) i'll go easy if you need but don't ask me to teach you

sure
why not?
[ it's a good way to stay limber and also to assess the skills of the people they're here with!! ]

And she may just vanish from boredom if she doesn't find something to do other than scream at the witches' wards in tongues. Vanessa has never been one to enjoy watching fights, but entertainment is scarce around here, and she needs the distraction. ]
Some here claim to know magic, you realize.
no subject
i'm not worried about it
[ by now he's ascertained that he'll still heal, just slower. if everyone else's magic is similarly affected, heine really has no concerns. ]
it'd make it more interesting
no subject
[ Has he tested how well he can heal? A little worried. But she's not about to start lecturing, least of all in public, so she'll leave her concern there. ]
If it doesn't bother you, I may come to see what the fighters of this city have to offer. Undoubtedly, we will eventually encounter more dire threats than boredom.
no subject
can't guarantee anyone will show up to fight though
but if they do you can watch
[ it's the same thing heine is doing, just at a distance, right? ]
that's what i was thinking.
better to be prepared
no subject
[ Men will be men, especially with too much time on their hands. ]
I'll come bearing a prize for the final victor.
[ Even though everything's free. Might as well have fun with it. ]
