[action forward dated to late night]
[OPEN]

[Naoto hefts up the wooden practice sword, experimentally slashing it through the air once or twice before letting it rest at her side. She can't help but frown. It's so different, the weight, the length, the shape - it's like someone cut off her arm and handed her another. She doesn't put it back though. Instead, she shifts into a few familiar positions before launching herself into a imaginary battle. It's not her sword, but she has to get used to it.]

[CLOSED to Nill]

[Finally entering the shelter rooms she shares with Nill, a little tired, but not too tired to check up on her roommate. She saw her responses to the supposed bomb threat, so she can't help but worry a little.] Nill?

	[He nods, not at all offended by her tone.] It happens. Mind some company? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[she shrugs.] Go ahead. [She's going to lean against the wall for a bit. break time!] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Thanks. [He has the primary blade of the fusion sword with him--just in case--but takes up two practice swords instead of slinging the heavy weapon free of its magnetic sheath at his back. He begins with a series of slow warm-up kata.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[It's her turn to watch, and she does just that, noting his familiarity with the forms. It was much better than her messy warm up from before, a fact that makes her sigh quietly and resolve to do better.] [She notices the weapon he has, and examines it - but it's not like anything she's seen before.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Cloud continues uninterrupted until the warmup is finished, then twirls the practice swords once in his hands to bring the blades into a downward, at-rest position. He glances at Naoto, one eyebrow raised. There's plenty of room for both of them to practice.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She's pretty much done with her break, so she gets off the wall in favor of joining the floor. Still looking at that weapon of yours btw.] Is that a sword? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He grins, but only for a second. She might miss the expression if she blinks.] Part of one. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She blinks in confusion ~~therefore missing it~~.] ...Did you leave the rest of it at home? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You could say that. It's my understanding that Acumen didn't want me to have the rest of it. I didn't even have this piece until I joined the Defense Force. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	So you're allowed to carry weapons, but Acumen still decides what you get back. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fragmentsofyou 2012-01-30 01:05 am UTC (link)
	Basically. You can make requests, but there's no guarantee that's what you'll get. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	shatteredblade 2012-02-02 03:42 pm UTC (link)
	[she frowns to herself for a moment] What made you join the force in the first place? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He shrugs.] It's something to do. Something useful, I mean ... and a way to keep a promise to some friends. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	shatteredblade 2012-02-03 03:26 am UTC (link)
	[a promise... She hoists the wooden sword up, letting it rest against her shoulder.] It's hard to keep busy in a place like this. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fragmentsofyou 2012-02-04 12:40 am UTC (link)
	It can be ... but it's not impossible. (Reply to this) (Parent)
