Atton is out back, swinging a sword about.

It's more of a sped-up kata than anything - a string of movements done very, very fast.

Botherable.

Guppy is sitting on a rock by the lake when Atton comes out.

He watches him doing the sword movements, with a sense of admiration. It looks cool.

Atton is a show-off at heart, so when he sees Guppy he stops being functional and starts trying to be impressive. Thus, fast swordplay starts to include his most flashy moves, and he starts to incorporate particularly impressive acrobatics.

Guppy grins and watches, his chin on his hand and his elbow on his knees.

He hopes Atton doesn't get overexcited and accidentally cut anything off.

The routine gets more complex, with the sword occasionally tossed upwards to free his hand for a string of fast martial arts moves before he catches it again.

Eventually he stops, sliding the sword back into his sheath and giving Guppy a wide grin before heading over.

"Greetings, Atton Rand," Teja says.

He has not spoken to his friend in a while.

"Tejmandude!" Atton says, sheathing his sword. "How're you?"

"The afterlife," Teja says, "continues interesting, but not always pleasurable. It is, truly, much like life."

"It effectively is life, just in a much smaller environment. Been having problems lately, then?"
