A small whistle of appreciation escaped Andy’s lips, making a note not to get on the demi-god’s bad side as he surveyed the full extent of the damage. Walking gingerly among the debris, a part of him wondered how fast you had to be moving to make [i]steel[/i] splinter, fragments of the dummies’ metal supports staring sharply at his exposed feet. [color=fff79a][b]“Uhm... sorry. The training grounds on Themyscira are made of... sturdier stuff,”[/b][/color] said Tachyus, a sheepish smile on his face. Andy could probably guess what was going through the demi-god’s head at the moment, what with him being the only one to require medical care out of a plethora of other, comparatively untrained teens. He seemed to have a lot in common with Juno in that regard; both spent their entire lives preparing for this sort of thing, and they both held themselves to a [i]really[/i] high standard. From what Andy could tell, this made their egos to grow large and wonky – so at times like these, when their foundations were cracked, it was better to give them support than to risk stoking the flames. [color=ffbc57][b]“Oh, don’t sweat it, man,”[/b][/color] responded Andy, meeting the demi-god’s small smile with his own. [color=ffbc57][b]“You were just, uh… just letting your frustrations out. I get it. No biggie. Guess we should probably get some of those holographic dummies the League uses, though, huh?”[/b][/color] [/indent]
