So far the New Year had not been...well. Stellar. In a little over two weeks, she'd managed to lose her lucky headband, get her nose broken, and sprain her ankle. That wasn't even including any of the embarrassing things she'd done that hadn't involved bodily harm. But she was determined that it wouldn't be an omen for the year to come. She was just over thinking things and what she needed to do was relax and focus on the whole reason she was there. To learn things. And train. And become better at the things she was bad at. Like Hand to Hand Combat. Okay, so she had never been good at things that were overly athletic. And perhaps she had poor coordination. But she was trying her best and she really didn't do anything on purpose. She knew she would never be a combat focus, so she was honestly just trying to survive at this point. It was just a lot harder than she'd anticipated. And she was maybe struggling more than some other people in their year, but she was determined to do better. These plans were of course hampered by the fact that today she was being partnered with Liam. Whom, contrary to what he might think, she did not hate. But somehow always managed to say the worst thing to him, so she was reasonably sure that he wasn't her biggest fan. The good news, he was rather good at the whole Combat thing and maybe he'd be able to help. Okay, so that would involve him wanting to help, but Abi was nothing if not an optimist. "Right. So. Partners. I promise not to like...set the place on fire or anything." She said with a hopeful grin. |
