Lucifer pretends he didn't witness all of that even though he absolutely did.]
Excellent job. [And then he rifles through the stick bundle to find ones that are likely sturdy enough to use as play swords, tests one of them by waving it through the air a little bit... this will do.] Alright, use this one. Although these aren't real swords, a good rule of thumb for this is not to aim for the face. I wouldn't want either of us to lose an eye.
[Teaching a kid to do a theatrical swordfight in murder-school, what's the worst that could happen?
Lucifer is, at least, a helpful teacher. He shows them how to stand, because it's important that they don't fall off balance at any point! At several parts he'll walk over and kick their feet apart with his own if they fall out of a stronger stance. The fun part is getting to the actual "swordfighting", in which Lucifer shows them how to parry his blows (which are really just light taps with the stick) and how to make it look real.
