"You found your weapon in a sewer."

"Your sword came from a skeleton."

"Your gear reeks of dumpster waste."

"Your gear has more blood than the enemy that it came from."

"When was the last time you cleaned your gear?"

"Let's fire that back at you!"

Kirito narrowed his eyes as Asuna sighed. Kibaou thought he had the high ground as they all rested in a bar. Kirito said no, and as such the fight started. The Black Swordsman had called his team's gear trashed, but Kibaou kept saying his gear had gone to hell and back. Rude.

"You assume more than you need to. I clean my gear."

"Really? When?"

"Yesterday. When it rained. And I got pushed into a river." Klein choked on his drink as Asuna chuckled. Yeah, she lost her footing. She helped him out of the water afterwards, but she ultimately did the damage. "What about you?"

"Why you asking?"

"Don't dodge the question with another."

Asuna snorted as Klein regained air. She kept an eye on him as he shifted in his chair. He had stated that he preferred to stay away from people. She wondered why. Of course, she was sure it was a real world problem.

"You know, you're violent for someone so weak."

"Just because this is a game doesn't mean I won't start stabbing people. There is no real barrier of who I will and won't stab. By the way, the list of people in the 'won't stab' list is very few."

"How do you know?"

"Because there's only really two people in that list."

"What? Your mommy and daddy?" The group chuckled at the roast, not knowing how weak it was.

"Being that my dad's dead and my mom's glad I moved out? Fuck no." Klein lost it as the opposing group fell silent. Asuna frowned. The problem was in his family? That would be something she would look into later.

"Are you really saying your family isn't on that list?"

"Maybe they should be better people. Because I could care less. I've avoided one funeral for one of them, I'll avoid more. Now, when was the last time you cleaned your gear?" Klein snickered as Kibaou growled. Asuna gulped.
