[Well, it isn't a Keyblade, but it works.]

[Riku is just coming in the front doors, new blade in hand. He's out of breath and a little sweaty-- someone's been training. Coming in, he takes out his journal and flips it open.]

It feels strange to train so hard in the cold.

You didn't overdo it, did you? It might be a little too much, depending on when you last trained to that extent.

[oathprotector]

It's no big deal. I can handle more than this... Especially when it warms up. I need to keep sharp, anyway, and pushing my limits isn't necessarily a bad thing in that respect.

[fanassaults]

Mm, as long as you know where your limits are. We wouldn't want you collapsing.

How is the new weapon doing?

[oathprotector]

Don't worry, I'm plenty durable enough for training.

It's... not the same, but it's close.

[fanassaults]

I guess it must take some time to get used to a new shape. I'm very glad to hear you're satisfied with it, though.

Would you need anything else for your training, Riku?

[oathprotector]

You're not the only one.

Training's going pretty easy right now. I'm sure there are ways I could improve it, but I don't know all my resources yet.

[fanassaults]

Just wish and it'll be yours, you know. I'll help however I can as well.

[oathprotector]

Well... How can you help?

[fanassaults]

Um...

[fanassaults]

...I'm not sure, actually.

[oathprotector]

.... [You get a short laugh, quiet and controlled.]

[fanassaults]

[ SOB. She tries. Yukiko makes a briefly embarrassed noise, glad this is dictated so he can't see her blushu. ]

[oathprotector]

[At least his tone of voice is more comfortable now.]

To tell you to truth, I don't really know where to train. I like solitude, if Sora isn't with me.

[fanassaults]

Hm...and it can be hard to find places to go, in that case. I think a lot of people either use the forest, or go to the outpost. There's a teleportation device in the basement which can take you right there.

[oathprotector]

The outpost..?

[fanassaults]

Mhm. There's one set up just at the Dead Zone barrier to the north. A few people live out there, rather than stay in the castle.
