[voice] A time to start over

[attheclocktower]

[She probably should have done this a lot sooner but... to tell the truth it's taken this long for the wound of Reno's departure to not be too raw. But now some of the edge is fading, and she needs to be practical. She's never going to get better like this.]

Up until recently I was training with someone how to fight, but... he's gone now. So... I was wondering, is there anybody who can help me train? I can fight hand-to-hand, and also I can... I've never found anything like it anywhere else, but I think it's most like a sword in other worlds. I'm trying to learn to fight with it a little differently too, so... I might not be as good, but I want to to get better.

[Meaning her bad hand is useless for pretty much anything still, and she hasn't had much chance to practice one-handed keyblade wielding]

Anyway, thanks.

[She pauses, then adds]

Oh... Shion, if I find anybody, do you want to come as well? [Er...] I'll ask you if I see you too.

Sort of. There used to be Keyblade masters who taught people, I think. But I don't know any from my time. And there've been some in the Tower before, but... they're all mostly gone now.

[There was Terra, but she hasn't gone to him, for various awkward reasons. She's... mostly sad about Aqua being gone. Especially the one who'd helped her back during February.]

Back home though... there was only Roxas, and he knew as much about it as I did.

I see. Well, if it's just swordsmanship, then there's probably at least a few things I can teach you.

[Definitely seems like it would be a clunkier, slower blade, which is better suited to his style, anyway. Slower hits, but every one counts.]

I'd like to make a more practical assessment when you have time.
