So Korvus gave me this bracelet for my secret santa thing called a kara. And it's like the Sikh version of brace knuckles for self defense. Would teacher people get pissed if he taught me how to use it?

Dude, as long as you're not using it on peeps, I can't see why anyone'd get pissed any more than like, kids who take martial arts learn how to use, uh, I guess nunchucks or something?

Okay, good. I didn't think anyone would care but I told Korvus I would ask someone to be sure because, uh...he cares about upsetting people over something like that more than me?

Korvus is a good kid. Well, I guess he's not really a kid, since he's eighteen so he's a good guy. Lot more concerned about it than was either but I had been here a while so I had a good idea of how people would get about that kinda thing.

Yeah he seems like an alright guy. I don't really talk to him much so mostly I see him in like self-defense. But, hey, Matt gets frustrated just by looking at Korvus and I irritate the shit out of him by breathing so I figure Korvus and me might get along.

Yeah, I don't get why he bugs Matt, but whatevs. Korvus is just like less confusing Marius for me when he talks, so I kinda dig the guy.
Korvus taking that self-defense class is kinda lolarious to me. Dude's like a black belt in whatever crazy Indian martial arts he takes.took.something.

Korvus is like never confusing. I mean, I've never had like a whole conversation with him so maybe he is. But when I see him on the journals and shit or in class he's not.
Something with a K and a P? It's in my journal. Too lazy to check it. But yeah I guess he learned to use the Kara as a knuckle duster by visiting other temples when he was training in that stuff? Anyway, he's willing to teach me and gave me multipurpose bracelet so he gets points with me. Plus he reinforced a skateboard deck he made himself with steel. Even if it's a bitch and a half to do an ollie with the added weight it's still fucking cool.

It's more that Marius is epic confusing, not that Korvus is confusing.
Dude. That is epic badass Secret Santa there.

Is he? He didn't seem that confusing. But we were talking about like cookies and why Mr Summers is Vibra-Socket and on the journals so maybe that's why?
Isn't it? Dude. I'd like kiss him for it but, uh, he is dating Meggan and I am soooo not the kissing people out of happy kind, y'know? But it's like, the indestructible board! The deck's reinforced with steel, the trucks are really good, the wheels are sweet. Seriously, this board is like made for grinding down rails and shit...if it's not too heavy to jump up on them anyway. And the bracelet is all undercover brass knuckles basically.
