[Video | Action]

[ Good afternoon, Johto. Y'might be greeted to an odd sight today as Xion's Gear comes alive thanks to Bell the Togekiss (who somehow has managed to work it despite not having any... arms, per se). ]

Hah! Yah!

[ Wooden Keyblade in hand, Xion's swinging at an invisible enemy like this. A jump, and she tries an air combo. Least she's not doing any of the fancy stuff she knows, and even if she could, her now human body would make it difficult to do so anyway.

But the expression on her face... and the amount of force it looks like she's putting into the swings... Someone hasn't had a good night nor sleep, that's for sure.

She stops when Axel the Typhlosion walks into view. Training time? Don't we all love some training time! Xion goes into a stance until Axel fires a spurt of bright, hot flames at her. Dodge roll, then she swings at his chest, but obviously makes sure she misses on purpose. She doesn't want to hurt him.

A minute or two of this passes, and somehow, Bahamut the Gible scampers into view. He bumps into the back of Xion's leg, making her stumble slightly, distracting her enough that she can't stop Axel from swiping her wooden Keyblade out of her hand. Clattering to the side and out of reach, Xion only has a few moments before Axel swipes at her again. Guess what happens when you take a Keyblade out of their wielder's hand? Especially when she can't summon it back...

No hand-to-hand experience, either. She tries to block the blow, but then he just... headbutts her. Bearing in mind Bahamut is still behind her, she tries to fall where she doesn't squish him.

Thud.

Xion: 0 | Axel: 1

She lets out a shuddering sigh, maybe a bit frustrated, but not at Axel or anything. At least Bahamut walked out unscathed as he comes up to her face and licks her cheek, but she doesn't move herself from the sandy floor. ]


I need to change this.

[ Seeing all this, Bell thinks the spectacle's over and shuts the feed. ]

[ All that near smiling and joy from discovering she's onto something she's never learned before? Gone. ]

Nine months?

The child needs time to grow strong, if it is to survive its birth and its first few days of life.

[Still, he sympathizes.]

[ Silence. Well, that's understandable, at least, and from all the information she's gathered right now... Now she looks a bit uncomfortable, she does understand. Don't worry.

She thinks. ]


Yeah, I'm... still not sure about children. [ And the concept of sex is still a mystery to her, but she's thinking she's put Cecil through enough with her questioning. Maybe another time? Or another person to ask... ]

And like you said... a few more years, right?

Many are not, even if they are married or part of long-lasting relationships.

[Yeah, that is quite a lot to take in, isn't it? Next time he'll have to remember to give the abridged version.]

You have as many years as you want to have. I had Ceodore at a relatively young age, but a friend of mine had his only daughter in his mid-thirties.

I see. [ Tries to small smile. NOT... that his deters Xion's nice view of having a family, no. She just needs... time to process all of this in her tired head. ]

Thank you, Cecil.

You're welcome. If you have any other questions, you only need to ask.

[If her brain can still take it, that is.]

[ That smile turns into a shy grin. ]

Maybe another time? It was a lot to take in.

I know. When I first heard all of this, I had to take a few minutes to stare at my tutor in horror. Then again, his explanation had included more warnings...

Heh. And you looked like you were getting, well... a bit embarrassed by all this, so I don't want to put you through anything more today.
paladinlost: (cute)

My poor blushing cheeks thank you for that.

[They shouldn't. They had some color, for once.]

[ Another "heh!" ] Sorry.

It's fine. Learning about such things is an important step.

Right. But your cheeks... we have to think about them. So maybe another time?
paladinlost: (soft)

[personal profile] paladinlost 2011-09-17 12:48 am (UTC)(link)
Another time. Still, until then, do not hesitate to contact me if you need anything.

Okay. Thank you so much, Cecil.

[ She's still gonna, you know... try not to be a bother, hoo boy. ]
paladinlost: (^_^)

You're welcome, Xion.

[She'S never a bother in his eyes! ... A temporary reason to drink, maybe.]

Talk to you some other time?

[ And he still seems sober! ]

Anytime you wish.

[He was part of the army in a medievalish world. What did you expect?]
