Day Seven - Early Morning
Who: Shannon Rutherford & Shizuka Domeki
What: Early morning practice
When: Asscrack of dawn
Where: Initially the museum, then the carnival probably
Rating: PG- something or other (but probably no more than 13)
Status: Complete

The snow already beginning to press against the door of the thrift shop made it a bit difficult to leave and the snow already beginning to accumulate on the streets and walks of the town made the trek to the museum something slow and labored. Domeki, figuring that it would take him a while to make the hike across town, had chosen to leave before it had even begun to get light outside and it proved to be a wise choice - aside from the fact that he found himself already chilled nearly to the bone by the time he paused before the large door leading into the museum.

Domeki flexed the bare and numb fingers of his hands as he debated whether or not to knock. He knew that knocking was, essentially, the only way he could let Shannon know that he had arrived but there was an equal chance that he might awaken one of the gentlemen currently staying with her - and then he might have to explain what he wanted with his big sister at this hour and also why he was currently carrying a bow.

After a moment of silent debate, he finally raised his hand and rapped his numb knuckles against the wood of the door. He could only hope that, should Shannon not be the one to answer, whoever did liked early morning knock knock jokes.

Domeki was not entirely unaware of the slight awkwardness of being given permission to move and to touch the body of an attractive woman - but he had already come to the point of thinking of Shannon as family and this thought helped to alleviate a bit of the lingering strangeness. Beside that, there was also the fact that he had attempted to teach a few of his contemporaries to use a bow and arrow - with varying degrees of success.

"Here. Let's see if it comes any easier if I step back a bit," he offered. He did take more than a few steps back from Shannon and he considered her stance for a long moment before nodding his approval. She did seem to have the basics down quite well, but it would also likely be a bit more difficult when she had to perform them on her own. "Alright, go ahead. Let me see if you can hit the ready stance on your own and I'll let you know if anything needs to be adjusted."
