Tear's Big Project, Day 1

[mysterical]

Characters: Tear Grants and YOU
Setting: The meadow on Floor 25
Format: Starting action, reply as you wish.
Summary: This is the first of the two days for Tear's offer of training in magic. There will be closed parts for certain people and a few open sections.
Warnings:  Magic, fighting, Luke and Asch in the same area with pointy things, possible explosions?

[Tear made her way to the meadow thirty minutes early, a book in her hand as she made that way. She looked around at the empty space and grimaced. Why she'd thought this was a good idea, she'd never know, but she was determined to see if she could get the residents of this Tower of Horror to arm themselves in light of the recent problems with the administration.]

Closed for Luke fon Fabre (OU)
[If the redhead looked carefully enough, he'd see the brunette looking off into the distance at the flowers as she waited for the others to gather.]

Closed for Asch the Bloody, Sheba and Xion
[She'd decided to work on the redheads away from one another, but any friends they brought were fine. She'd expected to see the blond after their exchange on the network.

Closed for V/V, AU Link and Zelda
[She couldn't wait to introduce her two new friends to one another. Link had training with bows and swords. Between those, Tear was sure that V/V would find something she could use.]

Open Section for Magic Training
[This was perhaps the most anxious part of the entire ordeal—trying to figure out how the magics of so many worlds worked and to see if those interested could actually learn to use the Seventh Fonon, or if she was going to be spending her night telling them all how to do battle first aid.

Only time would tell, right?]

Open Section for Fighting Training
[As opposed to the magic training, this, this she had no issue with. She was a proficient with her staffs, maces and knives. Besides, she'd learned as a child that anything could be used as a weapon in times of need. And with the many sword wielders as she'd met since coming to the tower, she knew that this would be fine!]

[He parries the blows, although to her credit, it does take a bit of effort, especially once she begins using the two-handed moves that are more familiar to her. There's only a moment's warning when he starts to counter-attack, just long enough for her to get her guard up. It's a short train of slashes and thrusts, none that would actually cause damage if she failed to guard, but serious enough to be a part of a real fight.

It's not worth anything if it's not serious training, after all. You wouldn't grow if you just repeated the same motions for years and years.]

[And Asch is right to have kept an eye out for certain green-haired observers. He doesn't want to bother them, so keeps out of the way, but Ion just couldn't help but approach the scene of training when he noticed it happening.

Not that he could really hope to do much of anything where combat (especially armed combat) was concerned. Regardless, he liked to watch. And he had never seen the girl that Asch was training, before. When it came to potentially making new acquaintances, he was the furthest thing from shy.

So don't mind him while he watches attentively from a save distance, hands folded politely behind his back.]

[Xion switches to the defensive quickly, though she's somewhat less familiar with blocking swords and weapons as she is claws and monster attacks, though she's better than she was when she arrived at the Tower. She's very used to blocking one particular way though, and struggles with other ones. The thrusts she simply dodges, trying to veer out of the way as best she can.

She doesn't have the chance really to focus or acknowledge Ion, too much attention being paid to the fight at hand. Overall her blocks and dodges are much less confident in general]
