*barely restraining himself from kissing her neck, but managing it!* What, you'd be embarrassed to fall over in front of me? With a little practise you'll have this bowing thing down in no time. Try it again.

*and stepping back to watch*

[toiletseat_girl]

*glances back at him and grins* Just a little bit, 'cause you seem to think so much of me. And, I'll try at least? We'll see if it works.

*tries again, doing a more passable job this time*

[and_thats_it]

Oh, I do. *grinning back*

Bravo! Well done. See, it's all in the shoulders. You have to have the control there.

[toiletseat_girl]

The feeling's mutual.

*looks very proud of herself* Control, huh? I don't mind the sound of that. Besides, this is kinda fun.

[and_thats_it]

Mm, is that so?

You like control? *not really hiding his grin* Glad you're enjoying it.

[toiletseat_girl]

Of course it is.

Yeah. I mean, who doesn't? At least when it comes to my life, other people can do whatever they want. *and grins back at him* Mm-hmm, I am. Is there anything else I need to learn?

[and_thats_it]

Good.

Not quite anything... *appraising glance* I think you have at least the basics, and everything else will come to you the more you do it. So tell me, is it far too antiquated to ever use?

[toiletseat_girl]

Not quite? Awww. *and meets his gaze* And, hmm, maybe not? I mean, the world I'm moving to has nobility. Okay, I think they're more of a Japanese nobility, but it still can't hurt?

[and_thats_it]

Parts of you are still always sacred. *quirks an eyebrow at her* I don't know what Japanese is, but you can't really go wrong with a bow.

[toiletseat_girl]

Oh, yeah? Which parts? *shrugs in response* It's a country in this world, lots of the campers are from there. Different language, different culture, all kinds of different stuff to get used to.

[and_thats_it]

You don't know?

Well, it would be tricky, of course, but I find if you're living amongst the people it becomes a lot easier. There is, after all, not much else you can do.

[toiletseat_girl]

Not really, no.

Yeah, that's how I'm trying to look at it. I mean, I'm nervous as hell about it, but I figure I'll get by. And the people I'm gonna be staying with should be able to help out, at least I hope so.

[and_thats_it]

Think about it a while, perhaps. Take some time.

Of course they will, any friend would. You've nothing to fear.

[toiletseat_girl]

Well, uh. It'll probably take a very long time. 'Cause me, sacred? That's----not something I'd ever call myself.

Except fear itself?

[and_thats_it]

I'm patient.

Being afraid of being afraid seems a bit self-defeating, doesn't it?

[toiletseat_girl]

Can't I at least get a hint?

A little bit, yeah. But it's not my quote.
