7 - [Action/Voice]
Lately Logan has been a rare face around Luceti and an unreliable teacher at best. Fortunately he had Ororo and Natasha to cover when he wasn't around, lest his students get the funny idea they were getting off time. That was the result of the man taking any mission the Malnosso offered him. Anything to get out of the cage. But the last one was from one cage to another. While they certainly gave him more challenge than he got in the dome, their combat testing didn't sit well with him. Especially because he forced himself to hold back. He wasn't fond of the Mallies knowing just what he was really capable of. he didn't care for the keen interest in his claws. He'd known too many scientists like that.
So when he got back to Luceti on the evening of the fourth, he was still on edge. He sated himself by picking up a some booze at the bar- to go, before heading back to the house. Tonight his idea of relaxation was putting his feet up to watch an action flick, smoke a cigar, and ignore any requests that he wash himself clean of the last ten days of heavy combat.
The next day, he'll resume his training sessions and otherwise be found at the Dome all day, until the evening where he'll retreat to the bar.

Back in Luceti. If yer here an' ain't dead, show up for training. You know when to be here.
If anyone else is looking fer some trainin', we can talk. I specialize in people with special powers. I usually work with mutants, but there ain't a whole lot of us here. So talk to me if you're interested. Just don't expect nothing easy.

[SADIST. Zatanna’s really starting to regret this. But throwing her hands up and quitting isn’t an option for her, because this guy has definitely pushed her to the point where she has something to prove. And comparatively, the saws aren’t too bad. Definitely better than the lasers. It’s not that hard to figure out even where the ones that move are going, thanks to the tracks on the floor.]
[action]
[It's clear that the path ahead isn't going to get easier. In fact, it's designed to get harder and harder until eventually she WILL lose. There's no question of that. It's just a matter of how far she'll get. Though if he was to be strict, she'd already lost when her 'leg was crushed'.]
Re: [action]
No way. [Especially not when he puts it like that. Zatanna’s got a stubborn streak, and he’s frustrated her enough to make it come out. But that only takes her so far, and it’s not too long before she ends up stuck, only able to guard herself from attacks that don’t hurt but still sting her pride as she eventually realizes the futility of the situation.]
Oh come on! You can’t seriously think this is humanly possible! [Geez, Zatanna would be struggling even if she could use her magic.]
[action]
It's possible. Maybe not yet, but you work hard and you just might have a shot at seeing what's at the end.
Re: [action]
[Or something close to it. Whatever he wants to call it, to Zatanna it sounds like she actually met his standard. And given the obstacle course he'd put together, she thinks she has a right to be proud of that.]
[action]
[Logan turns around as he starts heading towards the entrance.]
You last one week an' there might just be hope for you yet.
Re: [action]
Okay. So is this the part where we work out a schedule? Because you strike me as the kind of guy who doesn’t like people to be late.
Re: [action]
[Yeah. He's going easy on people in Luceti. Only one hour.]
Re: [action]
So no proper weekends, but I still get to sleep in. That works for me.
Guess I’ll see you then. [And if there's nothing else, she'll head off with a wave.]
