[It's about midday when Shayera turns on the comm, sitting in the comforts of her suite in the Earth Sector. Her expression is her default serious, and her overall demeanor shows she means business, despite feeling a tad unusual about making a public appearance that's not in person. But that aside, she knows that she has something that needs to be said, and a little awkwardness isn't going to stop her.] My name is Shayera Hol. Most of you probably don't know me, but that's not the point here. I'm here to talk about training for self-defense in battle.
[She leans back in her chair to get comfortable, arms crossed as she speaks.] I know there's been a few other posts about this, but having more offers doesn't hurt things. A-- [There's a brief hesitation as she decides which word best describes Kyle. He said family, but... she never agreed to that.] friend of mine brought it to my attention that there are people here who need to know how to fight. There's things here that can kill, and people should be prepared to defend themselves against them should the need arise. I'm a pretty competent fighter, so don't worry about me knowing what I'm doing.
[Then there's the fact that there's teenagers here, and they're really going to need help unless they have some form of fighting on their own.] Even if you have your own powers or whatnot, knowing how to fight is still crucial. I'd be willing to help anybody out, so just give me a call, or come to my apartment, EA-2C. I'll be starting the lessons in a couple of weeks, if nothing unexpected pops up.
[filtered message to Captain James Kirk and Clara Oswald]
[Once that's been taken care of, she fixes up a filter to the two Kyle told her about.] The little ball of sunshine told me about you two in particular needing training, so don't expect to get out of it. If you've got any questions, feel free to drop by.

[She grins at that. A beautiful woman with a powerful weapon? Definitely something she can get behind.]
Perfect. This is going to brilliantly.
no subject
[And she found someone willing to put up with her attitude, Shayera is more than pleased with this.] I hope so, as long as we don't put too many dents in a wall.
no subject
[She laughs softly, a playful grin taking over her face.]
Dents are just a risk we'll have to take. Product of a good training.
no subject
[Clara, you might just be her new favorite person. As a response to the grin, Shayera gets her own devious smirk.] They're unavoidable when dealing with weapons, especially blunt ones like maces. I'll make sure to look around in the shops for one.

[She nods and then pauses.]
This is filtered to Jim too, right? Is he going to get mace training too.
no subject
[She nods in return before answering.] Kyle said he's more of a brawler, so I need to take that raw strength and siphon it into more professional styles of fighting. Sporadic punches and kicks can only get you so far.
no subject
Teach me how to kick is arse. That's my first goal.
[Mostly because she thinks it would be funny and hugely satisfying.]

After that, I'll start working to take down armies.
no subject
In a few months, you will be.

[She grins and shifts eagerly in her seat at the console.]
Perfect. Thank you.

[Nah, she just wants to have some fun with him.]
