[Sanageyama's sitting on some bleachers in a park once the feed kicks up. He's just finished work for the day, and judging from the few breadcrumbs stuck to the side of his mouth and the balled up subway sandwich wrapping sitting beside him, he's just finished eating too.]

I was thinking today...lotta people around here wanna try out their new powers, but it's dangerous, right? If it went wrong you could bust up a city block or kill a bunch of people by accident.

Although some of us just wanna fight too. Nothing wrong with that.

Is there a place for that? Anywhere we can go to let loose without worrying about the consequences? Cause if not, I'm thinking it might be worth the investment. We could throw together some cash and try and get something together.

I dunno how the process works though. Do we ask the government for permission? If anyone's got experience setting something like that up I could use the input.

Mister Sanageyama...

[You really ought to have screened this message from him.]

[ironbuttmonkey]

[He didn't even realize how this all sounded whoops.

He's mostly in the "just wanna fight" category.]

Hm? What's wrong, Kamui?

[hoboagogo]

Like some kinda stadium thing?

[hey they could take bets and charge admission and it might fund itself.]

Not a bad idea. But I dunno who you'd see about it... or how many people who can heal you'd have to keep on staff.

[ironbuttmonkey]

[Holy shit, like gladiators. He likes the way you think, Shinji.]

Well we'd need staff, sure! There's a lot to take into account. That's why it's just in the planning stages.

If I can't get other people interested I won't have the funds to do anything in the first place. But I'll write down any input you got, man.

[Which he...does, actually taking note of the healers part. That's important, all things considered.]

[nitidus]

I'm not sure there is a place - but it's an investment I'd be interested in. Admittedly, I haven't been giving one of my powers the attention it deserves.

[ironbuttmonkey]

See, it just doesn't make sense. We can't just wait for whatever disaster pops up next to try this out, especially since the lack of training would make it a potential risk anyway.

What's the power? I mean, if you're cool with sharing.

[lucke]

Heh, well now. Could it be fate?

[Cu chuckles mischievously.]

As far as the government is concerned, nope. Not as far as I've found anyways. But- [He leans in like a guy with a secret.] I might have just what you're looking for.

[ironbuttmonkey]

Alright, you've got my attention. Shoot.

There's a lotta forest area outside of De Chima if you want to head that for for the area without too many people around. Otherwise your best bet are the large open areas near the stretches of road leading out of Heropa. But a stadium? Be pretty cool. You'd think they'd have a better training facility here considering what we're able to do once we show up.

And if you're looking for a fight, you can count me in. I'll take all the partners I can get.

[ironbuttmonkey]

Really? I'll have to keep that in mind. To be honest, I'm more worried about other people though - I'm not likely to cause a lot of property damage when I'm fighting. [LMAO RIGHT. But he can control himself if he has to.] But some people probably don't have the luxury of containing themselves, and if they wrecked a forest they might be in a bit of trouble, you know?

I'll take you up on the offer though. I could use more people to train with as well.

I have a friend in dire need of a place like that. It should be sturdy and not flammable.

[ His face clearly reads: Otherwise it won't stand long. Castiel has been created with powers, but Dean has been given pyrokinesis by this place - a poor idea if Castiel's ever seen one. ]

Combat training is essential, the authorities would be foolish not to agree.

[ironbuttmonkey]

One of those, huh? [It's cool Cas, one of the people that came to mind for something like this was a dragon. He understands.] Well, I don't know how long something like this would take to set up, but another guy rec'd the area outside the city. It's mostly roads out there, so I'd say the roadside would be empty and not as flammable if you need somewhere right away.

But you're right. It's just their people at risk if people don't know what they're doing, so I can't imagine it being a problem they wouldn't consider.

A worthwhile endeavor, to be certain.

[And, honestly, a lot like Honnouji in a sense.]

I would imagine it would require quite the budget, however-- so perhaps the government funding it would be in everyone's best interests.

[ironbuttmonkey]

[MAYBE IT'S WHERE HE GOT THE IDEA. Subconsciously, but still.]

Yeah, I doubt I could afford something like this on assistant coach salary. You were the one who got me thinking about it though, from the other day.

[Y'know their sparring match that totally happened and I just haven't tagged enough yet to kick it off. That one. That totally happened.

Yep.]

[dissemble]

I wouldn't ever stop worrying about the consequences here.

[ironbuttmonkey]

There's a difference between something like this and what you did.

I thought that'd be obvious.

[video]

[yatagarasu]

That's actually a good idea. [Kay is feeding a crow from her hand.] I know a few lawyers around here so maybe that's a start?

[ironbuttmonkey]

You know, I might actually need to talk to a lawyer about this. Someone else mentioned making sure I don't end up responsible for anyone who hurts themselves, legally speaking...

Could you put me in touch with one of them?

[altercate]

What do you want, an ultimate fighting ring?

[ironbuttmonkey]

[gottaswing]

I could definitely use something like that. Lots of space and somewhere I don't have to worry too much about property damage...

Did you get any useful information so far? Maybe we just kinda... Contact the mayor or something?

[ironbuttmonkey]

A lot of people have had some good ideas so far, actually.

My friend works for the government though, so if I can't speak with them about this directly, I figure I'll ask him to do it on my behalf.

What's your power anyway?

voice;

[runningstart]

Forget asking permission, let's make a hero club.

[ironbuttmonkey]

I am completely down for hero club.

But if asking for permission means the government might help with the heavy lifting and funding, I'd rather go that route instead.

[manbanchoku]

[She giggles.]

They could always make an island in a bay with a big arena on top!

[ironbuttmonkey]

That...wouldn't be a bad idea, actually.

I don't know if they'd go that far for us, but I'll suggest it if they ask.
