Archery? Well, I might be able to teach you something, though I might use a different kind of bow than your friend did....

... a different kind of bow? [ there's different kinds? ] How different is different?

Hm, that depends on what you were learning. How tall was the bow?

... um. [ she never actually checked. ] I'm not actually sure... I never measured it or anything. I just found one that wasn't to difficult to pull back on.

[...hmm, sounds like a complete beginner. He hesitates briefly, then the smile is audible as he continues.]

Well, I did want to get some practice in, if there's somewhere I can do it. I'd be happy to show you some things while I'm there?

[ she's been learning for a few months now! she's just ... never been all that particular about the details. ]

Well, there's the barracks, and now the Battle Dome. But I don't want to trouble you if you want to practice... [ uncertain. ]

[..."Battle Dome"?]

It's no trouble at all. Honest! I wouldn't have offered otherwise.

Well, thank you. I really appreciate it. Can you give me a little time to think about it? I had more than one offer... [ eh heh. ] What's your name, anyway?

I'll be practicing anyway, so it's up to you.

[He's as cheerful about not teaching her as he is about teaching her, really, so either way he's good with it.]

Oh, sorry! I'm Tsukishiro Yukito. Nice to meet you.

Okay! I'll let you know. Thanks again.

I'm Xion! It's nice to meet you, um ... which of those should I call you by? [ Xion: still not used to people with surnames. ]

Just Yukito is fine.

Okay! Yukito, then.

How long have you been practicing archery for?

[...that's a more complicated question than you know. So he'll be vague.]

Oh, a few years. I used to compete with the kyudo team in high school, sometimes.

... kyudo team? [ what's that. ]

[He laughs, at himself for not thinking.]

Archery. The specific style I know is called kyudo.

Oh! That makes sense. There's really a lot about it I still don't know... [ thoughtful hum. plans are forming to go to the library later. ]
