OOC Note: I'm sorry for the state of this RP. Basically, if I could have it go wrong, it did. That's why there's no CD. With any luck, I should BR able to post up a normal AJ RP. Apologies, Hawk.
"There's something about this kind of match...the matches where you can't quite figure out the one hole in the other guy's armor and he can't find the hole in yours. It's really an educational experience, because you get to learn what sort of men you both are. Me, I'm an optimist. I see these as chances to make more of myself. I'm learning from a master technician, an area where I'm notoriously weak. And you? You're getting bored. You're getting tired of Colin in, getting beat to hell, and not winning. And I'll admit, it wears thin for me too. But that doesn't stop me wanting to spring back up and go at it again."
"Because the road can be rocky, but as long as you see the light at the end of that tunnel, you can keep fighting. I won't be dissuaded from that, no matter how hard you try. I've had more than my share of bruises during my life. Yours aren't going to do much worse. I do find it cute how you constantly try to make me doubt the thing that brought me into this in the first place, as if maybe this time it'll cause me to erode into this pile of self-doubt. Let me tell you a little something..."
"The Ace...he's a bad wrestling instructor. He doesn't have much patience for mistakes. But what he is is a good teacher. He educates not just by word but by deed. He's letting me use the same facilities and trainers he does, and he's doing far more than just help me in the ring. He teaches me something new every day. And as for why he hasn't dropped everything to help me out? Simple. He has his own career to worry about right now. Running the Starlets, looking to reclaim gold, all important stuff. And besides...if I so desperately wanted his attention, I could get it."
"I'm the kind of man who had to come to grips a long time ago with the stark realization that sometimes...hell, most of the time...the only person you can count on is the guy you see in the mirror every morning. Is it a bit discouraging? Yeah. But will it ever stop me from doing what I need to overcome all of life's obstacles? Hell. No."
"Part of the freerunner's ethos is that no obstacle is impassable. Wherever you need to go, you can get there. And we look for the most efficient way, the most direct way...the best way. You may be a very thorny, complicated obstacle, but that's what you are. Your words are challenges, protrusions onto the path of my life. As incredibly difficult as these last few weeks have been, they're probably the greatest challenge I've faced since signing with NCW. And I do love myself a good challenge."
"I'm just wondering when you'll challenge yourself FTP say something new. Because know what I'm tires of? I'm tired of g you rattle on about how your teachers are all do fantastic and wonderful while mine sucks. I'm getting a bit bored with how you promise that there will be no way I can do anything to beat you because you know a thousand holds. I know it sounds a little bit whiny, but could you at least try? Please? I'm begging you, man."
"I really wish I could say something profound here. Something about two masters of their styles being locked in a tooth and nail battle for supremacy, and the excitement that results. But I can't. No matter how hard I try, I am not the kind of gut that can come up with all sorts of colorful language. I'm just here to chew bubblegum and kick ass, man. And wouldn't you know? I'm all out of bubblegum. I'm going to go out there. I'm going to leave it all out there. And hell or high water, I will do what I have to to win because that's the only way I know how to wrestle. I don't believe in half-measures. So Nighthawk...as much as it pains me to say this, knowing how our last few matches have panned out...good luck. And don't blink, bird-boy. You just might miss something."[/color]
