[115] [accidental video/action]

[embracethewaves]

[--zzt!Looks like the owner of the device isn't getting shocked this time, though. The video records nonetheless: it takes in a shot of the lake and the shipyard. You can see Umi at full figure, sword in hand, a short distance away -- looks like someone's playing hooky from work today. (Sorry, Lights workers

That was...fencing, right?

1/2 [video]

[embracethewaves]

What was--

[...Pause. Look of realization. Sees the blinking 'record' light, and:

[embracethewaves]

[...]

[..........] Of course it had to be recording, didn't it, this stupid weirdo thing--!

A-ah, sorry! I didn't mean to interrupt!

[After seeing Umi outside at the docks, Namine already knew where she was; since it was a little bit since she'd seen Umi, she slipped outside and moved over to where she was practicing.]

You're really good, you know.

let's go botha snape! [action]

[embracethewaves]

[She certainly wasn't expecting company, but while she jumped a bit at the voice -- the company wasn't unwelcome.]

Namine...

[She smiles a little, gratefully.]

...I'm out of practice, more like.

That was fun! I liked the part where he stopped moving. [action]

[dustedsunlight]

[She smiles and walks a little closer, now that Umi isn't swinging pointy things around that could accidentally hit her.]

You look really good. How did you learn something like that?

[action]

[embracethewaves]

[YEAH THAT WOULD BE BAD. She lowers her sword, because really, fighting Namine isn't something she ever wants to do (again 8|)]

Thanks, Namine.

[The smile brightens at the question.]

Now that's an easy one! Practice. I captain of a fencing team in my world, you know.

[embracethewaves]

[...m-more of an audience dfhgjds this stupid communicator]

[Voice]

[embracethewaves]

...Well-- thank you. I've gotta admit, I wasn't exactly expecting to put on a show.

[thiefcat]

You never mentioned you were a swordswoman.

[Sorry Umi, a sword is a sword to Nami.]

[embracethewaves]

A swordswoman?

[Paaaause.] Huh. That makes it sound more like a career than a hobby! But you know? Maybe it fits.

[thiefcat]

You mean it's not? [She's too used to Zoro, okay? And people like her don't have hobbies. Just a lot of jobs.]

[embracethewaves]

Not in my world.

[...] Although -- you never know, I guess. Maybe it could be. As weird as it sounds...other worlds are like that. [Since people like Zoro and Lafarga exist out there in the multiverse.]

[ lights, camera and action! o/ ]

[likelightfire]

Umi? What's wrong?

[ lights, camera and action! o/ ]

[embracethewaves]

[She drops her sword immediately at the sound of little sis's voice, shakes her head] Hikaru...

Jeez. I'm-- ...I must be out of practice.

[ lights, camera and action! o/ ]

[likelightfire]

[She gives a sheepish smile.]

I haven't been practicing either. Maybe we could practice together next time!

[ lights, camera and action! o/ ]

[embracethewaves]

[Umi returns the smile and nods.]

I think that's a great idea, Hikaru. Any time!
