FAKE AU? MEME:

This Feat I Hold: Ryan Reynolds and Michael Chernus

After an unsuccessful bout, Leon (Ryan Reynolds) and Edgar (Michael Chernus) train together -- and Leon praises more than he practices. Evidently, he’s more intimidated than focused and Edgar aims to change that.

“I don’t mean to regurgitate anything I’ve said already, but you’re built like an assembly line. Every muscle has a purpose and is as effective as the rest. I’m sorry if my critical analysis is too much for you and your inane ability to push away any completely honest and accurate observations of mine, but I’m just stating the factuality of the reality here.”

“It’s not that I’m pushing away your honesty, Leon. I’m trying to push away your “inane” ability of diminishing your own freaking skills and talents. I’ve never seen someone compute as fast as you do in the ring -- it’s like you know what I’m going to do before I do it, and you know nothing about me-- at least not enough to move as if you’re in my head. You may suck at fighting and you may suck at taking a hit, but it’s as if the ring were all mapped out in that sad, little head of yours. You just need to use that, you know, with your fists.”
