[PHONE]

...O-Oh Sora's droned. She's gone. Um...

Um. I just thought anyone who knew her should know.

I won't be at work for a few days..


ACTION; On the Porch

[She's holding Sora's sword on her lap, the cape draped over her shoulders. Of course Sora would have wanted these things sent to her...This sword isn't from home though and she isn't sure what to do with it. Maybe it was time to finally learn how to use a sword. Or her gun. She couldn't count on Sora to come to her rescue anymore.]


ACTION; PARK

[SEE KOHARU WITH A SWORD.

SEE KOHARU ALMOST CUT A FLOWER OFF ITS STEM.

SEE KOHARU MISS AND STUMBLE.

Also see that Koharu shouldn't wear her school uniform while she's trying to learn how to handle a sword from an angel]

I suppose if you're in an emergency situation it's better than being unarmed. Just don't pick anything too large--I got knocked over by my own sword's weight more often than anything else when I was learning.

[He'll steer her toward some thin trees.]

Maybe a larger target than a flower would help?

[willbeurprincess]

Really? [Ah she's so much of a failure at this and her nerves are starting to make her a bit anxious. No, this was supposed to be a good thing. Becoming her own savior for once right? RIGHT]

I guess I thought a smaller target would be easier at first...For some reason...

[vytis]

No one's good the first time they pick up a sword, you know. I wouldn't try to cut down a fully grown tree, but you don't want something so small it's hard to hit at all.

[Having had time to look the sword over, Lithuania is fairly certain it's the sword Sora had. Still, he isn't going to bring that up so suddenly; at least having Koharu do something is keeping her from being too unhappy for the moment.]

[willbeurprincess]

Oh...Well I guess I'll try then?

[She takes a swing at a tree, cutting off a few leaves, but missing the actual stem. That's...a bit discouraging.]

[vytis]

You're pulling up too much. Here, like this.

[He moves behind her and wraps his hands over hers, moving her through a light swing to show her the arc, stopping before he actually strikes the tree.]

[willbeurprincess]

[She hesitantly moves back to the beginning of the swing and tries it again, grinning when it cuts through the tree] Ah I hit it!

[vytis]

Good job. It really just takes a lot of practice, that's all.

[willbeurprincess]

I-I guess I'll have to keep practicing. Sora always made it look easy to pick up new weapons...

[vytis]

Some things come more easily to some people than others, but I think anyone can learn if they're willing to put the time into it.

[willbeurprincess]

I suppose...S-So should I just learn to do that? [Changing the subject because she already misses Sora again]

[vytis]

Would you like to? Swords aren't the only weapon.

[willbeurprincess]

I have my rifle still...I'm still not a good shot with that either.

[vytis]

I could help you with either one if you'd like, though rifles aren't my specialty.

[willbeurprincess]

Well do we know anyone is good with rifles...?

[vytis]

Well, I can still teach you how to use one, at least, if that's what you want to learn. [Even if rifles aren't anything Lithuania favors he's had enough practice with them.] I could ask around, though.

[willbeurprincess]

Well...I should probably learn to use one before I learn another, right? [She holds up the sword a little]
