[ Jasmine just happens to be heading to the park to let out her giant steel snake beast for a while! She feels kind of bad that she lets Rusty roam considerably less than her other Pokemon... but that's because they are also closer to a normal size, while Rusty is freakin' huge.

That loud sound is enough to make Jasmine panic and, ignoring the sign completely, enter the park. Her Steelix trails behind her, practically looming over her as she looks around for the source. What in the world could have made such a noise? Why is it there? Is it dangerous for it to be there?

And then she finally sees that giant beast and all of her questions seem to be answered. She's staying off to the side, observing for now, but Steelix is definitely ready to Iron Tail if something (or someone) gets too close to his trainer. ]

SORRY CONNIE I DIDN'T MEAN TO TAKE QUITE SO LONG dfgkjf

[By now, Renji's done with the simpler maneuvers and moves on to sharper turns, hairpin corners, Zabimaru ducking and diving with every flick of a well-trained wrist. It swoops over and around a nearby lonely cluster of trees, plummets soon after until it's inches from the ground only to level out and swoop back at Renji at the last second.

He's noticed the girl and her snake by now-- they're nearly impossible to miss all things considered-- but he doesn't let up just yet. Training is training, and while he's curious, he's got a long way to go and is happy to leave her to her own devices or the time being.

He does look over though, a quick glance to acknowledge her before flat out disappearing, rematerialising in the air a good twenty metres from where he'd been and throwing Zabimaru into another charge at a nearby park bench.]

DON'T APOLOGIZE I SAID IT WAS OKAY SJGLKDFJG besides i'm slow too

[ Jasmine will just quietly watch in the meantime. Are they... training? She has never seen anything quite like this before. Rusty fidgets a bit behind her, as if trying to express how freaking awesome this is, but she rests her hand on his side to calm him down. Even if she had the abilities and the means to train like this, she wouldn't anyway; it's a bit too rough for her tastes, but it's definitely interesting to observe and watch other people use it.

She'll wait until he's done before trying trying to approach. ]

o-okay.....

[It's a good fifteen minutes, but a lull comes in the flow of movement and Renji settles himself with his feet firmly on the ground, Zabimaru coming to a halt curled loosely behind him. For a while he's still preoccupied, head tilted back toward the bone snake as he talks with it quietly (listening for silent answers) --"getting better, let's take a break. yeah yeah, i know. we will."-- but once he's done, he turns toward her.

From across the space between them, he calls:]

Did ya need t'use the space? We can move out.

[ She gets so absorbed in watching that it actually takes her a second to realize that everything's calm again.

Hearing his question, she shakes her head at first. ] Um... N-no! We're okay! Th-thank you th-- [ Rusty interrupts her with an anxious grumble. He's anxious now, and he wants to fight now. Jasmine sighs a little under her breath, pulling out Empoleon's Pokeball. ]

A-actually, um... Sorry, I think he wants to do some training now, too...
