Bahram was in the gym today, getting a workout in. After the botched rescue at the bank, he was looking to let off a little steam, so he found himself by the punching bags. For the past hour he'd been letting loose a torrent of heavy, sloppy punches that were loud and would probably hurt someone, but wouldn't mean shit in a situation where he'd actually have to throw them.

"Someone seems cranky." Matt walks in, tossing a bag in the corner before heading towards the pull up bar.

Bahram continues punching the shit out of that bag for a bit.

"I'm sure you heard about the bank," he says between heavy breaths.

Not waiting for a response, he starts hammering on that bag again.

"Oh yeah." He starts a set, not responding til his third rep.

"Sounds like you guys had a...learning experience."

"My experience..."

Bam.

"... didn't count..."

Bam.

"... for a thing."

Bam.

"If we weren't just up against some... I don't even know what to call them. But if these guys were serious, some of those kids would have been dead, if not all of them. And Yeva and me, our training didn't matter."

Probably the most Bahram had ever spoken.

"Would it have if the kids weren't there? I heard Yeva took a diplomatic approach but it was never able to get off the ground. What with the kids running around like a bunch of maniacs." He finishes his set and comes down.

"...did one of ours actually shoot Murdoch?"

Bahram just nods to both questions. After a moment he just stops hitting the bag altogether.

"I opted for the silent approach, though I'll admit fault in letting the kids take initiative. Murdoch took a bullet from a girl I assume never held a gun before in her life. They're going to need direction soon, Matt."

He goes and takes a drink, staying silent for a moment.

"You seem to be particularly pissed off about it." He walks over.

"Don't get me wrong, if I was there I'd be way worse than you, but you're still taking it pretty hard. I remember my first mission. I got thrown off a roof. You remember yours?"

"I don't like to fail," he replies simply, shrugging.

"Overestimated my rewind. Nearly got myself and two others killed because I was arrogant." He's not too pleased to think about it. "It's unfortunate how the only one to come out of that bank with a real injury was the only one who seemed to know what he was doing."

Bahram set his drink down and fixed the tape over his knuckles.

"Your last mission. How'd it go?"

"Not great." He says flatly before quickly bouncing topics.

"So are you mad at you, or at them?"

He was going to ask about that again sometime later.

"A combination of the two. More myself for lacking the control to calm them."

He starts to head to the ring in the center, cocking his head toward it as a signal for Matt to follow if he felt like having a spar. He needed to hit something besides a giant bag to calm himself.

"Perhaps if I have a better control over myself I can take more efficient charge in the field. Care to help with that?"

"Your plan is solid in theory." Matt nods as he grabs a pair of sparring gloves from his bag, tossing his spare to Bahram as he climbs in between the ropes to get in.

"Gunning for field leader over these pups, then?" He shakes himself loose before raising his hands in a stance.

Bahram slips the gloves on after sliding into the ring.

"It's a possibility I'm willing to consider." He cracks a grin, adopting a southpaw stance and taking a few quick steps toward his peer.

He shoots his left hand out in two quick left jabs for Matt's face, whipping them back about as quickly as they shot forward.

Matt adopts a pretty basic strategy to move to Bahram's right to avoid the power left! He takes a step for each punch as he circles, looking to throw a right straight for his cheek!

Bahram gets smacked in the cheek and stumbles to his left! Now his face is all tingly.

He makes a quick recovery, sliding forward and ducking to the right. A left hook shot out for Matt's right side. He then shot back up and to the left, sending a right hook to his left side.

He tucks his elbows in, turning into the first punch to block it, though the second one catches him in the side!

He grunts as he steps into Bahram, looking to clinch him with double underhooks!

"Are you going to be mad when one of pups passes you up for that position?"

Bahram can't do anything to get away from the underhooks, so he just sends a left hook out for the side of Matt's head before he can gain any distance.

"I'm hoping one of them does," he answers honestly, taking a step back and bouncing on his heels. He feels most suited, but when it comes to it, they'll have to grow sooner or later. "I can't say anything good about the lot, for now, though. Besides Murdoch."

After speaking, he slides back in and launches a right jab feint for Matt's nose! Quickly after, he pushes back (Matt's left) and inward, sending a right hook for his left cheek.

Matt moves his head with it, not taking much damage between that and the close proximity.

"Yeah? Tell me about Murdoch, then."

He parries at the punch that never comes, ducking when the hook comes as he steps underneath and to the outside, throwing a low left kick to the back of Bahram's right thigh.

Bahram takes the kick and stumbles forward just slightly. In his already irked state, he's getting slightly more pissed.

"He's smart. Knows his limits." He steps toward Matt again, throwing another left jab at Matt's nose, fainting a second, and launching a left sweep kick to clip and pull him at the ankle.

"Much more tame than those like Strauss."

"Clyde," he pauses, parrying both jabs before his ankle gets kicked. He steps forward awkwardly to regain balance as he spins, throwing a right back fist.

"Don't be too hard on him, he means well."

Bahram catches the back fist with his left forearm and follows as Matt turns, sending two right hooks into his right side before backing off.

"The road to hell is paved with good intentions," he muses aloud, throwing a right cross for his chest.

"He needs a lot of work."

"He does," Matt takes the first hook to his tucked elbow before sending a counter left hook for his chin the same time Bahram's second hook would land.

"I just-ugh-feel bad for the kid is all."

Bahram takes the hit to his chin, tilting his head back at the same time.

"And why's that?"

He taps his gloves together and sends a quick left-right jab combo for Matt's face.

He steps back to avoid the jab, parrying and sidestepping the cross as he moves away, staying light on his feet as he bounces a few times.

"Did you read his file? He set his friend on fire and became ostracized."

He comes back in for a left jab right knee to the midsection combo.

"It's something you and I can relate to, having spent all those years ostracized in sickness. He just wants friends--this is the way he thinks he'll get their attention."

"Of course I read it," he shrugged.

Bahram parried the jab as it came out and stepped outside of the knee as it rose, shooting out his left leg in a sweep to catch Matt on his standing leg and pull it out from under him.

"The fact that I can relate is precisely why I can say nothing good about him."
