Training Log 01: Shiny new powers
It's been a day- or something similar to it. After all, time seemed to be a weak thing here. But it's long enough that the pounding in his head from the attack under the Founation is... manageable. His ribs still ache, but he's not going to let that stop him- if Rei needed them to fight, then he would fight. Especially since he now remembered HOW to fight- a weak memory that came with a few other things. Like that fact that he might be royalty(?), but more useful was his skills with a weapon.
So he goes hunting for a big open area- and every other Executor he sees he mentions his intention: to train and test out these new powers. Eventually he finds what he's looking for: what probably was supposed to be a park, though it was slightly twisted like everything else here. But it was open enough that he probably wouldn't hit any non-combatants. A quick switch to his Executor uniform, massive black armor with a fur lined cloak, and he spins his bone spear like an expert.
How strange to have this knowledge but almost no context. Well, it is what it is. He wonders if any of the others will join him?
((ooc: feel free to tag amoung yourselves as well!))

And while yesterday she was sporting a school uniform, today she's already in her Executor form, as she makes her way to the training area. Well. Runs. Or perhaps dashes would be a better term? She's somewhat of a blue and white blur almost. Not that she's particularly faster than any other Executor, but enthusiasm counts for a lot.
She twirls around with her cape a little, before summoning a sword. Giving it a few swings, just to test out the weight.]
Hmmm, I like how this feels! I wonder if I've done any fighting before?
no subject
Maybe you were on a fencing team at school?
no subject
[Well, that's sort of the problem, isn't it?]
Is fencing sort of like this...?
[Just, does a few more swings.]
no subject
I didn't end up with a sword, so you'll probably end up knowing more about it than me. [That explains the pair of giant surgical scissors resting across her lap, at least. How do you even fight with those?]
no subject
[...Wait, does she have scissors?]
C-Can you even fight with those...?
no subject
[She smiles mischievously.] Want to spar with me so I can test them?
no subject
no subject
[She pauses, looking slightly thoughtful of that. Doing a little twirl, as she looks at her outfit and cape.]
I guess, maybe? Well, I guess these are, sort of... [She reaches over to her hair, to touch her pin.] I was looking myself over a little earlier, and I think this is meant to be a fortissimo. Like music, you know?
no subject
It might not be the case, but I like to think there is some reason we are as we are.
no subject
What about you?
no subject
[He trails off, looking away, but smiles very fondly. The look of someone quite smitten.]
I remembered a woman. Bright and beautiful, funny and adventurous. I can only hope she was my queen were I truly a king. Aera. [He looks back to Ariel.] Her name was Aera, and I feel I could go the rest of my...afterlife not remembering a thing about my own life so long as I can remember the radiance of her hair in the sunset.
no subject
They swipe their weapon through the air when Ariel does, though whether it's a form of mimicry or just simply an affirmation of support is unclear. Maybe it's just for fun, though that seems unlikely. ]
no subject
[Ariel is very pleased, regardless of why they're doing it. Heck yeah, buddy!]
Is your weapon like a sword, too? I mean, it seems like it, but also not? I guess it's really special.
no subject
[ Teen Girl With Slashing Damage Squad ]
Does it feel pretty natural?
no subject
[SQUAD! SQUAD! SQUAD!]
Hmm... Kinda, yeah! When I swing, it just sort of feels... right?
no subject
[ ... Then her face falls a bit. ]
Not that you should have to, though...
no subject
[She laughs a little, like this is just a casual thing.]
The quicker I get this figured out, the more help I can be!
no subject
Are you really not scared at all? This is going to be dangerous... and you might get hurt.
no subject
[Is that uncool of her to admit?]
But what if other people get hurt? I don't think I could stand it. I mean, you're out there fighting, too. And everyone else will be, too.
no subject
Yes... that's exactly how I feel too. If I can do something that nobody else can, then I'm not sure I could ever forgive myself if I just sat around doing nothing. Especially if people are in danger.
1/2
[...Somehow she feels very strongly about this.]

[ Rei looks at her for a moment, not probing exactly but clearly thinking things over. Then, with a brief flash, she transforms – unarmed for now, but clearly Ready For Business. ]
Then, um... maybe we could practice together? I don't really know the technical side of things, but I've been fighting with my sword since I got here... it could be useful.
no subject
[...]
That sounded better in my head.
no subject
Well, you're not wrong. Um, could I see how you use your sword, just to start with? Just so I have an idea of how good you already are with it.
