004: [visual]/location: Elisa's dojo
A couple of days ago, while exploring the city, Elisa had come across something in Central which had caught her eye. It was, to her eye, an abandon martial arts dojo. Mirrors along one wall, gym mats and sparring equipment in storage, and largely being not much more than a large-ish open room with a storage room and a back office. She wasn't sure why she'd decided to look inside, but she had, though she'd left it at that for the evening.
The next night, she'd come back with cleaning supplies and gotten the place fixed up. She'd realized, after one more night of gliding around the city, that she really needed something to do with herself if she was going to keep from going crazy. And while she'd made plenty of friends and acquaintances, she also needed a purpose. Both as a cop and a Gargoyle, she wasn't really happy if she wasn't protecting people.
There would still be a lot to do, but with all the chaos that could sometimes go on, teaching people how to fight would not be a bad idea at all. And she herself had both her police training and the additional instruction Goliath and Hudson had given her. She was certainly qualified.
The third night, she turned on her tablet for a broadcast.
"Hello, Taxon," she said. "Hopefully I've got this damn thing working right... Anyway, Elisa here, and I'm setting up a dojo down here in Central, offering self-defense instruction. Figure we could probably use it. Also looking for a couple other people to bring on as instructors, so I'll probably be interviewing for that if anyone's interested...."
