[Flynn draws back and smiles slightly as he nods.]
But sometimes a person with a sharp mind comes along and can really put a wrench in things.
[He knows people like that in the knights who were more technical and he respected them immensely. He decides to continue to go on the offensive, this time lining up and pushing forward with his blade.]
Even so, it's fun to just have time to spar like this and not worry about too many factors.
I'll have to introduce you to my roommate. [ kaveh brings his claymore up to block, although flynn is definitely forcing him backward with each measured strike of his sword. ] He's got it all. Brains, brawn, ...he's a force to be reckoned with on and off the battlefield. [ kaveh continues to defend himself, but eventually he takes the chance to step off to the side, countering one of flynn's strike with a rather harsh blow of his own, trying to knock his sword ( and his stance ) off kilter, so he can turn the tides. ]
[Flynn slides back, but again, not used to Kaveh and his movement patterns the other is able to knock him off balance, staggering the knight as he tries to bring his sword up to block his side.]
He is. He's not a social person though. [ their swords clash and sparks fly... but kaveh continues to go on the attack. he does seem to be getting tired though, so as long as flynn continues to block, then he'll easily be able to outlast him. ]
[They aren't doing bad persay, but it's more of a match and less of a dance like the scientists were looking for. He continued to block, and parry, and swing when he could.
Kaveh gets another point in and Flynn staggers back now the one on the defensive.]
I know. I don’t mind that he’s not. [ it’s part of his charm. ] It does bother some people though… [ he shrugs, letting his claymore drop as he earns another point. kaveh takes a few steps back and resets himself, raising his weapon and leaving flynn to make the first move this time. ]
And besides… it’s almost like we’re each others foils, so it works out.
It's good when you find people like that who compliment you.
[He starts again, going towards Kaveh, blade up and ready as he strikes at Kaveh with quick successive strikes this time. He was going to tire him out if the other wasn't careful.]

Are you both from the same world, or--?

It sounds like you really like him.
