      IT’S A SWORD. THEY’RE NOT MEANT TO BE SAFE.

      “She’s a child!”

      IT’S EDUCATIONAL.

      “What if she cuts herself?”

      THAT WILL BE AN IMPORTANT LESSON.

    I guess? I haven’t had fist/weapon fights because that would put me in jail.

    But I lived on the streets for a handful of weeks after losing my job and housing. Potentially saved someone from dying. Got into a shelter. Got a job (that’s both rewarding and soul crushing, I’ll make do). Bought a new laptop. And working to get out of the shelter.

    Honorable fighting? I dunno, maybe.
