✨My wife has insisted we share an account. I have agreed to this. Going forward, my posts will be signaled with ✨ and hers with🌹

Seconds are often expected to take the place of their duelist if said duelist "chickens out" or otherwise fails to make it at the scheduled time. Flora doesn't ever have to worry about that, as I'm always quite punctual.

Very well, then. Come to our headquarters and deposit the payment, and they should lead you to the courtyard where the training sessions will commence.

...Hm. Do we perhaps believe that the Red Mist would respond if I were to send her a request for a level 2 duel? I know I would certainly lose, but I simply wish to observe her techniques first-hand

Even Flora has begun to call me "the yapperrrrr". She even appended an additional "r" in comparison to when that PR team member levied this title against me.

One aspect of rapier duels that is not very well known to those who watch from the sidelines is the perspective of the blade. As rapier's are quite thing, a well positioned rapier can appear nearly invisible and become very difficult for your opponent to track.

With her permission, of course. //Picrew used is the same as in my pfp. Tis in the bio but i'll link it again below this

I've heard it's not as common elsewhere, but here in Section 1 of Cinq West, duelists will often bring along a "second". They're responsible for a variety of things - such as carrying you to a doctor if you get injured, ensuring both parties are properly reloaded in the case of a pistol duel, [+]

A member of the PR team has sent me a screenshot of my profile page, along with my numerous posts, simply captioned "the yapperrrr". I do not know what they mean by this

I believe the fighting "strategy" I dislike the most is simply relying on one's ability to overpower their opponent. True prowess is the ability to overcome an opponent whose raw strength may surpass your own.

I've mentioned before that I allow my lesser opponents to have 3 attempts to strike me before I begin my play, for the sake of fairness. However, I will admit there is a more selfish aspect to this. I use it as an opportunity to observe their technique, and decide if I wish to see more.

I've been told more than a few times by my peers that I often come off as pretentious. I don't quite see it, but the amount of times I hear it is...worrying.

One of my hobbies I spend a decent amount of my free time on are various video games. Fromsoft's catalogue is among my favorites. Though, I always find it somewhat irritating how it's a tad more difficult to precisely gauge distance, as you technically don't have depth perception on a monitor.

I ought to set up a strawpage soon...

I once got a request for a Level 4 duel. For reference, Level 3 signifies a duel to the death. There is no Level 4. Though it's funny to imagine what a Level 4 duel would even imply if it's to be more extreme than a duel to the death.

You may have noticed I don't wear Cinq West's iconic hat. There are two reasons for this. One: With my immense speed, it simply falls off far too easily. Two: I don't like it.

Occasionally, clients may request duels be done via dueling pistols. It's quite rare, but I keep two on me at all times just in case. Guns are, of course, rather expensive. And so the issued dueling pistols are rather rudimentary, single-shot weapons resembling flintlocks.

I do offer sparring lessons as well, so if anyone would be interested in such a thing please let me know. My schedule is typically rather packed though, so you may have to deal with a notable queue

The Cinq Association as a whole is rather decentralized, and thus the title of "Director" doesn't quite mean much aside from signifying one's prowess. It also means I have to handle significantly more paperwork, unfortunately

Helping train the rookies is one of my favorite parts of the job. They're techniques are always sloppy to start out, of course, but it's always a pleasure slowly watching them refine their moves further and further with each sparring match.

Growing up, I had actually wanted to become a stage actress someday. Things didn't quite turn out that way, as you can see

As you all may know, our eastern branch often resorts to far more underhanded tactics in order to gain the upperhand in duels. I detest this fact, as our committment to just and noble duels is what makes Cinq what it is. Otherwise, what differentiates us from a lowly murder-for-hire office?

I believe my greatest dream would be to witness the Red Mist's fighting technique with my own eyes. The immaculateness of her technique, of the most awestriking fixer out there, must be beyond even my wildest imagination...

Cinq West's regulations demand that I use rapiers in duels, and I certainly have no problem with that. Rapiers are elegant, artful weapons, which allow one's individual prowess and techniques to shine ever brighter. However, I am quite fond of other weapons as well.

The PR team doesn't too fond of me. I'm not quite sure why.

I ought to explain the origin of my title to those who haven't heard of me before. As all color titles do, mine comes from the peculiar characteristics others observe from me. Particularly, the nearly-blinding "White Flash" that accompanies the devastating thrust of my rapier. [+]

The PR team at Cinq West has suggested I make an account on here, in order to promote our association further. I also thought it would be interesting to see what this place was like, perhaps meet some new faces, and so I agreed. And so, I greet you all. I am Claire, the White Flash.
