I train with a guy here who's small like me. I guess I know technically size doesn't matter, but I've never been much of a fighter myself. I don't like being hit.
(He got nothing out of it. Though he couldn't deny that he wasn't intrigued about going to this fight club he kept hearing about. Will had invited him along to watch one night, and while the idea scared him, it also kind of interested him too. Maybe it would be a lot different seeing two men haul it out on equal footing.)
That sounds just like my every day life, honestly. You're not the first guy I've heard talk about this kind of thing. Even back home I think a lot of boys loved fighting.
I kinda wish you were back home where I was. Lots of punks going around there.
(More than he cared to explain. But he wasn't particularly in the mood to talk explicitly about Henry Bowers and his goons.)
Thanks. I don't know. I was trying to learn back on the ship but I'm not very good. I'm okay with knives I guess. I know I should probably learn more but.
(He shrugs, taking a peek into one of Majima's other crates. At least Majima's love for violence didn't seem to be off-putting to Eddie. Sure it was a little weird, but Majima didn't seem keen on hurting him so what did Eddie care?)
Do you at least take care of yourself after fights?
