[Anyone visiting the barracks today will find someone who looks like she really, really shouldn't be in there, standing in front of a training dummy with a odd variety of weapons near her
( Read more... )
[Come on. You're not visiting the barracks and expecting not to see Adell. It's practically his second home. After seeing Flonne practice with a couple weapons, he'll approach her before she begins another routine.]
...Why the sudden interest in using new weapons, Flonne?
[She was sort of hoping she'd somehow miss him, but oh well. When she hears Adell talking to her, she stops attempting (and failing) to use the spear she's holding.]
Huh? Oh, um, no reason! I just wanted to try something new! [Are you going to buy that, Adell.]
...Flonne, I think I know you well enough to know that you don't like fighting much. What's really the deal?
By the way, your spear stance is way off. You're shifting too much weight backward... and your hands are reversed. You should have your dominant hand further up the shaft. It'll give you more power in your thrust.
[Arumat will continue to watch for a few moments more before he can't stand it any longer. Without a word, he's going to walk over, and when she lifts the sword above her head in an attempt to bring it down in another one of her wild strikes, he'll just grab the blade with one hand.]
[Flonne's a little confused when her next swipe doesn't connect -- or even come down, for that matter -- but that mystery's solved once she looks up and behind her.]
Oh! I'm sorry, I didn't realize someone was standing so close! [It couldn't have been this guy stopping her from swinging things around because she's being the ultimate fail at using her sword -- it had to be that he was too close and just was forced to stop her mighty swing. Totally.]

Well, I just thought it'd be a good idea to be more well-rounded, just in case ...

Uh, kid? You okay? [Gives a worried face and leans down so that his height isn't as intimidating, not that she'd be intimidated in the first place.]

Huh? Oh, yes, I'm okay!

Oh, hello Stahn! I'm just training a little, that's all! [smile smile]
