[Li is reluctant to do this. Starting social interactions is not her forte even in the best of times, and this is very assuredly not that. Regardless, she turns on the video, takes a breath, and steels herself to try to communicate clearly and concisely.]

Hello. My name is Ya-Jing Li. Li, if you want to be formal. I'm new here and I... [what's a way to put this that doesn't make her sound dim-witted?] I'm a bit lost on what to do. Usually I operate with more of a plan than this. I think it would be wise to develop some kind of training regime so I can maintain my combat capabilities, but I'm unsure what to do with the rest of my time here. Suggestions would be appreciated.

And if anyone remembers me from the, um, dream, from before? I would like to hear from you, just to know you made it out alright.

Pretty sure we all lost our weapons, which I guess isn't a surprise considering what we were taken for, but there's plenty available around here. I'm guessing your combat style relies on extreme pragmatism and immediate results, then?

[That isn't wrong and he's not making a judgment. The opposite, really -- if you are really in a fight, you have an obligation to end it as quickly and efficiently as possible. But at the same time, explicit training for that and nothing else comes with its own burdens and baggage.]

Gotcha. [She almost certainly has a leg up no matter what she learns, which is all to the good.] I teach martial arts, which ultimately will cover any gaps you have if you work on it, and you probably understand the core component of it in practice if not in theory, so it shouldn't be too hard for you to grasp. If that's what you want to learn. And before you ask, yes, it covers literally everything, because everything is martial arts.

My schedule's pretty open. [Outside of missions, they hardly had much to keep themselves occupied with -- and though Morgan excels at finding things to do, none of them really matter compared to teaching.] Any time you're free, I can meet you down at the training field.

[You fill your life with whatever you want, of course! She might be getting a crash course in that, too.]

Sounds good! Hit you up in an hour then?

[Morgan's hanging out at the sparring grounds just like he said, easy to see because he's tall and has that sort of quality that makes people stand out in a crowd. Conversely, he isn't even bothering to look for Li, because he knows perfectly well she could be standing directly in front of him and he wouldn't notice till something called his attention to her. C'est la vie, though.]
