[CLOSED] But there's no way to touch anything now.

Characters: Sayaka Maizono and Axel Almer.
Setting: Dorms, then Floor 25 (the meadow).
Format: Actionspammmmm.
Summary: Some good training time!
Warnings: None for now.



[ With the nuclear explosion thing that affected her favourite room, and the language shenanigans going on, Sayaka had little time to actually do some material training. Besides, she was starting to have second thoughts over her rash decision to use that knife out of all the better weapons she could have found. It's not clear why, but she feels this is the only thing she can hold onto right now. Even if it's dirty in her blood, and try as she might, she never managed to scrub it off the blade, like something crusted the redness to it permanently. It's one of the things that still connects her to her world, and it's hard to let it go- despite the macabre aspects of it.

She's in her room, all prepared herself for when Axel comes over. Plain black tank top, shorts, and sneakers, hair tied in a ponytail so they won't get in the way. Now what's left is to actually unglue her eyes from the knife in her hands... ]

[And there's a knock knock at the door. It was relaxed considering that Axel is leaning against the wall and knocking backhandedly. Prove that you're relaxed and everyone else will fall into line.

Axel has done this kind of thing a billion times; teaching bright eyed kids how to most efficiently kill the person in front of them. That was the nature of war and, in his opinion, there was no sense in holding these things back just because the other person was a kid. Better they can take care of themselves than having to inconvenience someone else.]

[idolizer]

[ At the sound of the knock, Sayaka snaps off whatever thoughts she was having. Quickly sliding the blade into the holster that's wrapped around her leg, she opens the door, and displays one of her usual smiles to greet him. ]

Hello, Axel. I'm ready to go.

[surpassthelimit]

Alright. Just to make sure, are you ready for this, kid?

[Doing things halfheartedly wasn't going to help anyone.]

[idolizer]

Of course. If I can't defend myself in this place, I'm better off dead.

[ And she's got Leon to be aware of, as well. Next time he tries to kill her, he won't be as lucky. ]

[surpassthelimit]

That's all I needed to hear. I won't say if this will be too difficult or not but I will say that you need to proper mindset or you aren't going to get anywhere.

Since that's settled, why don't you follow me.

[idolizer]

[ There's a firm nod, no words. Her doubts seem to be dissipated the moment she closes the door and follows Axel to... wherever they're going, but in reality she just tucked them deep in the back of her head, and they're going to stay there until she's done training for the day. ]

Where are we going today?

[surpassthelimit]

To a nice, empty place that has a soft ground in case you fall over. It's kind of like a meadow.

[idolizer]

[ Blink. ] A meadow? A thing like that exists in this tower?

[surpassthelimit]

You'd be surprised at all the crap you can find. It's hard to explore everywhere though.

[idolizer]

So I was told. I'm trying to avoid the most dangerous floors for that reason, and I'm grateful we have an elevator for that.

[surpassthelimit]

You should hang out at this place more often then. There's no monsters around.

[That and it's actually kinda nice.]

[idolizer]

I most definitely will. [ Another smile. Anywhere without monsters must be a nice place she definitely needs to see. ] Are there lots of trees there?

[surpassthelimit]

No, there aren't any trees at all. It's more like a field with flowers in it.

[idolizer]

Ah, well, it's better than just grass. I can't wait to see it.

[surpassthelimit]

We're almost there so you won't be waiting too long.

[idolizer]

Good, good!

[ Aaand she speeds up a little, excited to see just how this meadow looks like. ]

[surpassthelimit]

[FLOOR 25 HERE WE ARE.]

Enjoy the view because you're not going to get much of one later.

[idolizer]

[ Pretty much not listening by now, because the view of such a vast area full of flowers is breathtaking to her. She hasn't seen so much color in a long time...! ]

Woah~! [ She clasps her hands together. ] You're right, this totally makes up for the lack of trees! It's like an infinite sea of flowers...

[surpassthelimit]

[He shrugs to himself.]

Girls....

[idolizer]

Hey! Not only girls like these sorts of things. [ She turns to him, hands on her hips. ] I would hope there's a clear area where we can train though, right? I don't want to step on these flowers.

[surpassthelimit]

You might as well get used to stepping on flowers because I've never taken the time to check. Things will probably return back normal once we leave here anyway.

[idolizer]

[ r u d e ] What do you mean "normal"?

[surpassthelimit]

[welcome to Axel] As in, not crushed.

[idolizer]

... The flowers will heal on their own? [ Is this real life-- ok no i'll stop ] Are you really sure?

[surpassthelimit]

Yeah, I'm sure.

[If it'll keep her happy, at least.]
