Who: Pyxis, visitors
Where: the Pygnus commons
When: Day 233, late morning
What: practice

[Miranda has been working at the base of the Pyxis dorms for the last twenty minutes or so. She's set up horribly warped and useless glassware on various rocks, balancing them carefully. There's about ten pieces in all. She studies it a moment before picking up a metal rod about as tall as she is. Walking back over to the first, she takes a deep breath and brings the rod down hard on the glassware, shattering it.]

	It's called Innocence. It's... well... I don't remember exactly how it works, but the Exorcists where I'm from use it. There are others with them here as well -- Allen from Lacerta and Red from Cepheus. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[nods a little] Lenalee on Pavo was too... and Slick from the black team. [seems a little uneasy with the last announcement] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Lenalee... she was the girl with black hair? Eve? I didn't know her real name before... drops another glass (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lilmissfired 2011-04-19 04:52 am UTC (link)
	Ah... [nods] Eve. I... didn't really get a chance to know her here, and I didn't remember her very well until after she'd... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	At least with Pavo, Foreman takes them instead of... you know. picks up another piece of glass and taps it on the ground until it breaks So she's being taken care of. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lilmissfired 2011-04-19 05:00 am UTC (link)
	That... is something to be thankful for. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	clap_your_hands 2011-04-19 05:06 am UTC (link)
	Yeah. And every time I've seen them, they always look happy enough. Better than the other options. dropping this one They'll all come back sooner or later. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[with both Ikki and Ed working on the vases it seems she's actually getting quite the workout] I know. Lenalee... Eve would never let things go that easily. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nods I didn't get to know her as well as I should have, but she was strong. No way she'll just sit around as an ant forever. cracks another vase with his hand Everyone here from your world is strong. And you all have interesting powers too, from what I've seen. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lilmissfired 2011-04-19 05:29 am UTC (link)
	I... don't think I'm that strong. At least... not as strong as Allen and Red are... or Lenalee ... or Link... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	clap_your_hands 2011-04-19 05:34 am UTC (link)
	Strength isn't just phsyical. drops another vase You're here, you're making it through without giving up... you're out here working on your skills. It's because you're strong inside that you can do those things. Stuff like physical strength can be learned, but the rest comes from inside you, it's part of you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lilmissfired 2011-04-19 05:57 am UTC (link)
	... I... I guess so. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	clap_your_hands 2011-04-19 06:01 am UTC (link)
	crunch goes a vase in his hand I remember the training I went through to get stronger physically. Anyone could have done something like that... Though maybe not with my teacher. Physical strength's a lot easier to find than what you have. (Reply to this) (Parent)
