Thirty-Eighth Shower - [Voice]

[meteorical]

[Don't mind her, she's just grumbling to herself a little.] Vanitas is wrong. Valentine's Day is still special, even if a person doesn't have someone else to celebrate it with. It's seeing everybody else happy that makes it worth it some days. [But she's done fuming about it. Happy thoughts, happy thoughts.]You know, I kind of miss the day-after

You have good timing, I was going to tell you soon that we were going to get started.

[voice]

[meteorical]

Great minds think alike! How about today? Are you free?

[voice]

[enduringwaters]

Today would be fine. Can you meet me in front of the items shop in about twenty minutes?

[voice]

[meteorical]

You got it! I just need to grab a jacket, but I'll be there. See you soon.

[voice]

[enduringwaters]

All right. See you in a bit.

[voice]

[meteorical]

[And sure enough, about twenty minutes later there's a Kairi running to the item shop, glancing around. When she spots the older girl, she waves to get her attention.]

Hey, Aqua!

[action]

[enduringwaters]

[Aqua has to smile to herself when that brings up the memory of Kairi waving goodbye to her when she was a little girl.]

Hey. Ready to get started?

[action]

[meteorical]

[Kairi doesn't know what Aqua's thinking, but that doesn't stop her from approaching and stopping in front of her trainer.]

You bet! [She glances back at the items shop though.] Did we need something from here before we go? [Maybe Aqua had an errand to run. Kairi wouldn't mind waiting if that were the case.]

[action]

[enduringwaters]

[She shakes her head.] No, this just seemed like the easiest place to meet up at. We'll be training in the barracks, then we'll work up to the battle dome once you're ready. [She motions for Kairi to follow her.]

[action]

[meteorical]

[And so she follows behind Aqua, giving a glance back to the shop as they walk.]

How long do you think it will be before I'm really ready?
