Hey, are you free today?

[ after a certain devastatingly awful conversation, Xion's had a lot to think about in the days following. She's been offered so much different advice by so many people that by now, frankly, she just feels confused and tired. What she could really use is a break -- just ( Read more... )

[Ok, there's a teenage girl trying to use a bow with an arm splint. That's just... special, special enough to attract his attention anyway.]

Hey, hun? Ya really shouldn't be usin' a bow while yer like that.

[ DKJGHSLDKJA

that voice...! Xion whirls around, startled and blinking, actually dropping the arrow she'd been about to nock. She'd know that voice anywhere... ]

Raven? Is that really you?

[Action] crisis_rain September 8 2010, 04:09:26 UTC

[Well, better she drop the arrow than fire it at him out of shock. Either way, the fact she was startled ended up startling Raven in return. Another person who recognized him, he's gonna really need a list.]

Wait, wait! Before ya start! I don't have any memories of bein' here! I got here over a week ago!

Now that's outta the way. Seriously kid, ya shouldn't usin' a bow with yer arm in a splint, yer gonna break a tendon or somethin'.

[Action] poppetry September 8 2010, 04:12:38 UTC

... oh. [ she does a good job of hiding her disappointment, and smiles a little. ] I'm sorry. I should have asked.

Um... [ she looks down at her arm, then up at him ] I think it's already mostly healed... I should be okay. I've already been resting it for a few weeks.

[Action] crisis_rain September 8 2010, 04:17:36 UTC

Don't worry about it, it'll make yer head hurt.

[He pauses, looking over towards the target she'd been firing at. Not the best aim you've got there.]
If it was alright, then it wouldn't be in a splint still would it? At least move a little closer to the target so yer not puttin' so much stress onto yer injury.

[Action] poppetry September 8 2010, 04:41:02 UTC

[ ... but but. ] But that makes it too easy... [ not really. she's just challenging herself, perhaps unnecessarily. ] But if you really think I should... [ headtilts at him ] Do you use a bow?

[Action] crisis_rain September 8 2010, 19:39:00 UTC

It's not about how easy it is, ya should be tryin' not to put pressure on an injury. If you go about makin' it worse then ya won't be using a bow again. Takes a lot of upper arm strength ta use a bow effectively.

[Though, that question does remind him to go and track down his bow.]

Oh, yeah! I use a bow myself! Not yer standard bow, but it can function just like one.

[Action] poppetry September 10 2010, 07:32:04 UTC

[ with a sigh, she gives in. ] Okay, I'll move the target, at least. [ a curious blink. poppet is intrigued now! ] Not standard? What's different about it?

[Action] crisis_rain September 12 2010, 22:27:05 UTC

[He thinks of the best way to explain his bow... he's never had to explain it before.]

Uh, it's kinda complicated. But I flick my wrist and it turns inta a sword! I'll make sure ta show it to ya once I go retrieve it from the Smithy.

[Action] poppetry September 25 2010, 02:44:57 UTC

Really? That's so cool!

[ sparkle sparkle. well, metaphorically. ] I'd love to see that someday. If you didn't mind, that is.

[Action] crisis_rain September 25 2010, 09:43:59 UTC

Just listen out fer the screams from the barracks, as my arrows miss the targets and hit people. Then ya'll know when I've got it back!
