[A weekend of lost memories - it sat poorly with her, especially when she went back over her notes and found them missing as well. The dates for the weekend were written in her hand, but anything she'd written had been erased. Or maybe she hadn't written anything. The most concerning thing was that now that the weekend had ended, several people had gone missing or returned. Two days was a long time to lose her bearings and it made her restless. Which was why she'd gone to the shop to look around for anything useful.

Last thing she expected was to find the glove and eyeglass set - something so useful just left here like it was a new toy to be experimented with by anyone in the village. Something about it drew her to using it, but after the first day and the headaches, she realized it was probably something that belonged to someone. Which is why a few days later, after the headaches settle, she asks the village.]

Agent Carter reporting in with a few questions for the village.

One: Has anyone lost a pair of these? [She holds up the sunglasses, labeled ARI on the side to the camera.] I located them in the shop - interesting technology you have. I'd like to return them, if you're inclined to receive them.

[It packs one hell of a punch anyway, and she does not want that anymore. Peggy rubs her temple as he sets the glasses down out of view.]

Two: Sparring partners - hand to hand combat, preferably advanced non-magic practitioners. Willing to train people new to it, but more looking for practice myself. Can also train or spar in weapons - guns or knives specifically.

Three: On a more personal note, to my roommates - if you don't start cleaning your areas and picking up your things, I will do it for you.

[She looks straight into the camera with her usual no-nonsense look in her eyes.]

You will not enjoy it if I am forced to do so.

That is all.

[ More out of respect for the challenge than anything, he shows up in his full battle attire. And he's on time, but given that sees him later than her, he still frowns briefly before smiling and... ]

Wow, it seems I'm late.

Not at all.

[She slips the nail file into her inner pocket and stands, straightening her jacket.]

I just prefer to be early to most things. Force of habit.

[Since he looks dressed ready to fight, she holds her hand out.]

Good to see you, Masaomi.

No, the pleasure's all mine, Carter-san.

[ And he takes the hand. She's a foreigner, so that's her custom. ] I'm glad to hear you didn't wait long, then.

If I had, I wouldn't still be here. [She shakes his hand briskly and then turns, clicking a button to open the chamber she'd reserved.]

The enemies come in waves - in between, we spar each other. Whoever lasts the longest or takes the other down wins - sound fair?

[ Haha. Of course she would ]

Oh wow, you're creative. That does sound fair, though I question what sort of enemies.

[ He follows her, putting his hands into his pockets as he goes ]

[As soon as they're inside, the door snaps shut and she motions to the far end of the room.]

Everything.

[And here come the first wave of droids. She drops her arm down and the baton slides out of her jacket sleeve as she moves forward, snapping the thing up and hard into the side of the droid's head, cracking the outer shielding.]

[ Droids? He flips his baton out of his frontal pouches and spin attacks the first one which comes at him, also shattering the outer shielding. As he does it though ]

At least you didn't make them full strength!

Would you have preferred that?

[She ducks under the droid's arm, sweeping her leg out to take it off its feet.]

I can always adjust-- [She brings her heel down on the cracked shielding, pushing to snap the droid's neck.] --the difficulty.

No way! [ he swears low, tripping this one up, and then - well it intercepted his next kick, but he instead leapt back a step and tossed one of the baton's at the thing's chest ] I can't speak for you- but I'm a normal human here!

As am-- [Her words cut off abruptly as a droid grabs her from behind, arm around her neck, almost pulling her off her feet. She grits her teeth and whips the baton down at its knee, hitting it right in the joint. Two hits later and the droid's stance breaks, giving Peggy the room she needs to push the arm away from her throat. She drops into a roll and spins back up, smashing the droid in the side of the head repeatedly.

It takes too long to get it to fall, but when it does, she's breathing heavily and turns to look at Masaomi.]

I.

[ Wow, that's actually pretty amazing. What little of it he sees out of the corner of his eye. Honestly, he would like to focus on it, but even with them weakened like this to where a normal human can take them un-prepared as he is, droids are hard fought opponents. He's put on the defensive by one of them, and he needs to make a leap back to get out of an attempted grapple. Once that's done, he is unarmed now, but his eyes dart around for something in the environment he can re-arm with. Before that, though, he takes out a high quality knife he had in one of his other vest pouches just in case--

Oh, the one whose face he smashed was getting back up before the attempted grabble one got over. So he'll stab it in the chest and get a small zap for it. Ow ]
