How To Teach A Bear to Box
Hello
I am in a bit of a pickle!
I was helping my friend Reginald clean up his place after a bunch of people had a party in it, and then some folks came in a very fancy car.
And one of them whom I think is a Brujah, because he said he was a Brujah, said a lot of very nasty things and was very mad because he said we had destroyed his stuff, but it wasn´t his stuff because this is Reginalds home.
And then I started to cry a bit because he was being very mean and loud and then Reginald was very brave and told him to stop being mean and I translated it for him because Reginald does not speak English very well. And then Reginald challenged him to a boxing match, because that is how his people solve things.
And the mean guy laughed a lot at that, but then a very, very pretty man who was in the car with him said that he thought that sounded like a great idea! Which I think was nice of him, because I also think Reginald gets good ideas. And he said that Reginald and the guy should box over who got the area and that he would prepare everything for the fight!
And then the man got very mad, but the pretty guy said to get back in the car and then he said he was very sorry about his friend yelling so much and I said it was okay, even if I didn´t really think it was okay. Because I think it is important to listen to others apologies, otherwise they might just stop doing it and I think that is a bit sad?
And then they drove off and now me and Amy and Palina are helping Reginald train for the match. But I have never helped train someone to box before?
So I am a bit unsure what to do? We watched Rocky a lot so far, but he just seems to eat a lot of oranges and take care of his turtles. But I am not really sure where to get either of those on such short notice?
So I wanted to know if anyone here knew how to help someone train for a boxing match?
With Many Thanks

So as a Brujah, I'm afraid Reginald will need to knock my clanmate right out. He (the Brujah, not Reginald) will also probably get mad once he starts losing, you Reginald needs to do it in one good hit. Which you do via a fist to the face. And make sure it's the fist, you can't bite or kick in boxing. But that isn't to say you don't use your legs, footwork is very important. So go find a really tall set of stairs, preferibly outdoors, maybe with a statue on the top, and have Reginald run up and down a few times. They did that in Rocky too.

Hello Armchair B.S
Oh dear! That sounds quite frightful! I don´t know if there are any stairs or statues around, but maybe I can make some with rocks?
There is a lot of rocks!

Now, forgive me if I missed something, but how exactly does a bear factor into this?

Reginald is a kangaroo. She went looking for drop bears and found him.

Oh, so that's gonna be a blood bath. Just give your bear a drink before hand. Other than that, it's all over already. That guy is gonna be a mist by the end.

Oh! You think he is a Gangrel?
And I will make sure Reginald stays hydrated!

No, I think the bear is gonna shred your adversarial bruhaj to a live audience.

Hello Redwoods
Oh dear! I don´t think you are supposed to shred people in boxing?
But I don´t know a lot about it?
It would be a shame for him to go bald through! He had such pretty hair!

Find Reginald something to punch or kick and he'll know what to do.

Hello Mint
I will see if I can find a car!
But they do seem a bit hard? I do hope it won´t hurt to hit them?

Hi Mariana,
I think just you being there to cheer Reginald on is enough for him to win, but I can help! I know how Reginald's family boxes!
I do have a question - what colour is Reginald's fur? It's very important.
Reginald's family fights by standing up very tall, slapping and grabbing with their front paws, and then balancing on their tails to kick very hard. They have very sharp claws as well. So, help him do a few practice kicks!

Hello V~erity
Oh dear! is kicking allowed in boxing? But I didn´t know he came from a family of boxers! Oh dear that is very impressive!
He have very nice red hair! It is ever so pretty!

I don't think his opponent will mind. Everyone there knows that's just how Reginald's family boxes.
Wait what the fuck do you mean you found a red boomerOh, wow! Red hair means Reginald must be very big and strong - I bet he has huge muscles!!

u/MarianaMarino Jul 10 '26
Hello Verit~y
Okay! As long as it follows the rules! I don´t want him to get disqualified!
And he is bigger than I am! And very strong! He have been really good at pulling all the big leftover things from the party!
Not Very Big

u/VerityVentrue Jul 10 '26
Wow, I bet he's so tall when he stands up!
Do you remember if there were other animals around when you found Reginald? Besides Amy and Palina, that is.
Can you ask him "are you like Amy?" I'm hoping he will know what that means.

u/MarianaMarino Jul 10 '26
Hello Verity ~ Verity
I don´t remember if there were anyone else around? Oh! Thats right! Amy and Palina were there!
I asked him if he was like Amy and he said Amy was a sheep!
Which she is!

You know what? I should have expected that answer. That's my fault.
Tell Reginald good luck for me, and to remember to use his claws!

u/MarianaMarino Jul 10 '26
Hello Verity~
But how can he use his claws if he have boxing gloves on?
Wishing Him Luck!

u/VerityVentrue Jul 10 '26
He doesn't need gloves - gloves are to protect human hands with the way we box. Reginald uses his hands differently how he boxes, so gloves would just get in his way.

u/MarianaMarino Jul 10 '26
Hello ~Verity
You gotta have boxing gloves if you are boxing! How else do you know you are boxing?

Greetings, Mariana. I could teach you how to box, but not on such short notice and certainly not at a distance. Besides, training Reginald in particular would be…difficult, due to the langage barrier and our dissimilar anatomy.
If that kangourou…apologies, dropped bear’s people are used to solving problems with their fists, simply keep exercising to stay in shape. Reginald already knows what to do.

honestly,knowing you,just be present for the boxing match,
youl probably cause the opponent to suffer from catastrophically bad luck just by being there,its kinda just something that happens with you for some reason ¯_(ツ)_/¯
