Obviously, most people who see the Force being used in the way he can are envious of his abilities to some extent, so it's no surprise that the swordsman would zero in on the possibility. It wasn't quite what Ren meant to suggest, but he can at least acknowledge the idea.
"To do them? Unlikely," he replies frankly—still, there's always room for doubt on a planet that's already provided them so many unlikely opportunities. "But you can still learn. Supposedly."
Hopefully Regnard won't prove himself to be a fool in every aspect.
The "no" is expected, and Kevin doesn't seem put out by it. He's not actually ruling it out, mind, because he doesn't rule out much of anything since the last time he accomplished something that should have been impossible, but he isn't making up his mind to prove Kylo wrong out of spite or anything, either. Maybe he'll surprise the both of them one of these years. Empatheias is a weird place.
"Then, if you're willing to teach it, I'll learn it," he decides, shoving one hand in his pocket and using the other to idly flip the false saber hilt. "There are a lot of things I'm mucking about with right now. If whatever I pick up from you can help me sort out those other things, it's more than worth the effort."
And you never know what can help you do anything in this world, so you may as well get a bite of every pie.
They'll see how long it lasts for Regnard to think the effort is worth it—but the swordsman seems to be balanced just on the edge of discipline and impulsiveness for Ren not to be entirely certain the limit will be that soon.
"I'll be expecting you on Ebdome, then," he says simply, as if that's that. And the great thing about being the teacher is that he gets to make the rules. "We'll start at dawn."
He'll see where they'll go from there, and just what Regnard is willing to put up with. Maybe if he's lucky, Ren can get him to do a single handstand...
Kevin raises an eyebrow at him for being so presumptuous. The only reason he'll allow this is that his mornings are his own and easy to rearrange. But if this looks like it'll work out Kevin will need to pipe up with his own needs. His schedule is a full one, between his Enforcer work and all the people he checks on frequently.
Come Ebdome, however, Kylo Ren will find that -- courtesy of acrobat friends in Theasthai -- Kevin is not only entirely capable of standing on his hands. He walks around on them.
