The training space of the dojo was usually clean. Usually. Today was not such a day.
Today, was the rare Improvised Weapons class. Technically, it was part of the unarmed combat curriculum, but the occasional special class focused on making use of whatever you find in your environment did pop up. That meant there were things all over the Dojo. Wrenches. Tables. Reasonable facsimiles of broke bottles.Wooden bats. Folding chairs. A kitchen sink. All sorts of mundane items that could be useful as a weapon, if you've got nothing else on hand.
Kobushi eyes the row of training robots, all armed with the more standard training gear. There was no sensei, much to his dismay.

Momiko was used to the sensei not being here at this point. So instead of worrying she walked straight in and picked up a metal mess tray, looking it over.

"Not a bad choice," Kobushi comments, pointing to his head. In one hand, he's picked up the severed leg of a wooden table. "I guess we're supposed to use the robots as practice opponents. Haven't found any instructions on what we're supposed to do."
"By the way, how are you Asahina-san?"

"Not too bad, yourself?"
She turned to look at Kobushi, a look of concern on her face, "No more memory problems I hope?"

"Not since then," he says with a smile. He moves to pick up a helmet, remembering the advice of the others. "And I've been doing well. No memory loss, no injuries, making friends. Being terrified of a sensei. Typical experience, I think."

"...hai, I think I can understand that. Though I'm... no terrified perhaps is the right word. I won't pry for details."

He puts the helmet on and secures the straps.
"You know, I didn't take you for someone who'd take this class," he comments. "Not judging or anything. You just seemed so...non-violent."

"What's so violent about... well, defending yourself? I think that's what this is all about, no? Learning to defend yourself with what's on hand. If you actually wanted to be violent, you'd bring a real weapon."
She bonks one of the robots with a tray, just to test.

The machine does not respond.
"I don't think they're on yet." He pauses and approaches one. "Yup, still off. Let me get these running so we can get these started."
"And I suppose you have a point there. Never know when you might need to defend yourself, and using what's around you can surprise whoever's attacking you."
He switches one on and steps back as it gets ready to start attacking them.

"I mean, I am a priestess of the kami, so I can count on them if I can get to my scroll app. But that hardly seems as reliable. And it's not like I have anything else to fall back on. ...not that I necessarily think I'll be accosted some day. But when your mother is rich and such..."
Not that Mei would likely pay any sort of ransom anyways, and Momiko knew that.
