[u][i]Just a little practice.[/i][/u]
Aani was in the Dojo courtyard with her eyes closed, breathing slowly. She was focusing her strength on a large wooden post she had set up. She took out her sword and took a fighting stance, then phase dashed multiple times through and around the post, making a slash each time she passed by. She ended by charging her slash and smashing/cutting the post in two, leaving it on the ground and taking a breather.

"That seems rather....suplerfluous, don't you think?"
-
Aani looks to where the voice had come from, quite confused since she didn't know what the person even said. "What?"
-
Alpha was standing behind her, not even phased "I said, that was rather wasteful"
-
"Not really. I could use that for other things." She says, gesturing to the post she destroyed.
-
"Hmph, still, its very situational"
-
She shrugs "Did I look cool?"
-
Atop a similar post, but higher, was Quincy. He was crouched on the thin top of the pole on his heels, his legs bent, as he watched her curiously. He accidentally sneezed, announcing his presence.
-
She looks up at him, smiling under the cloak she wore. Her eyes looked brighter than they had when they first met at the gates. "Oh, hey Quincy."
-
He smiled, sliding down the wooden pole. "Hiah!'
-
"So what'd ya think?" She said, subtlety gesturing to the post behind her.
-
He chuckled. "You literally chopped the poor wood in half. I hope you plan on making a fire out of it."
-
"Yeah, totally. Fires are fun, I'm a pro with them." Aani puts away her sword and sighs. "It was fun making all those fires..."
-
"What do you mean?" he asked.
-
"On my way here, every night I had to make a fire. It was a real challenge sometimes."
-
He nods. "I sorta dealt with the same issue. Only there were nights i would just keep going as 1.) i was being chased and 2.) i have fur so i could do so pretty easily."
-
"Fur does help. I've sorta got my own, am I right?" She gestures to her large, 2-layered orange cloak.
-
He chuckles. "I suppose so."
-
"Oh hey, I was just wondering, what kind of weapon do you use?"
-
[b]There was a clapping as a man clad in black armor with a hood up approached her [/b] "Oh that was exquisite work."
-
"But exhausting." She says as if to finish his sentence. She looks up at the man with beautiful yellow glowing eyes, their entire surface yellow, except the pupil, and glass-like. "And thanks."
-
[b]The man stared back, his green eyes staring at her [/b] "A light user I take it?"
-
"Uhh, yeah. It's a lot of fun." She takes a final deep breath and stands up straight.
-
"That it is. Rather difficult as well."
-
"Not too hard once you learn it, or maybe that's just me..."
-
"So you're an angel? I've only ever heard am angel say it was easy."
