[Sayaka was following Gemini with a neutral look on her face, until she brought up... an episode title? She had no idea why this was of such high importance, so why not ask her?]

Episode title? Like in anime and stuff?

[thebelsareinert]

[Hiro tilts his head at the question, thus far looking his usual quiet self with just a twinge of eagerness in there... but what to call this.]

> Day One: You have my blade!
> Day One: Papercuts for Dummies
> Day One: Swordmanship is a man's XXX!!

... "Day One: You have my blade!". How about that?

[lonestarweeaboo]

[Wow Hiro.... Gemini simply shakes her head.]

... Nah, I'm not feelin' the enthusiasm there. Hey Sayaka, what do you think?

[frustratings]

Well, if it's a title, how about: "First Training! Learning the Way of the Sword!"... or something like that.

[thebelsareinert]

... I really like it!

What if we make it "First Slash!"? That way it could apply once we're done training.

[lonestarweeaboo]

Hehe... Now that's more like it! Great work, you two!

[frustratings]

[That definitely got her spirits up! She giggles a bit to herself, feeling slightly accomplished.]

What would the title of the series be, then?

[thebelsareinert]

[HMMMM. At Sayaka's mood being up, Hiro's Charm increases by a lot! Or does it? In any case, he's easing into the mood and thinking of something.]

Maybe we should see how the first episode goes to decide for sure? We can't name something without knowing at least a little bit about it.

[lonestarweeaboo]

Yup! We gotta hold our horses with that one.

[Stopping her walk as she looks around at the surroundings. The area looks open enough. With that, she will toss Sayaka a sword and Hiro a sword.] Heads up!

[frustratings]

[She almost got hit in the face-- but she caught the sword in time. That was too close.]

Whoa! That was so sudden...

[thebelsareinert]

[For his part, Hiro's going to grab at his out of the air and swing it... clumsily, like it were a club, but still overall very cool-like. This is the man with no idle animation after all.]

Where'd you get these?

[lonestarweeaboo]

I made these myself! You like 'em?

[frustratings]

[Sayaka swings it lightly and then in a swift motion so that it makes a small "whoosh" sound. Then she swings lightly in a horizontal motion.]

It's pretty light...

[thebelsareinert]

[Hiro watches Sayaka for a moment, then copies her motions.]

... You're right. It's nice.

[lonestarweeaboo]

[Gemini closes her eyes and nods. There's a bit of a nostalgic look on her face.]

Good. You gotta remember that your sword is like an extension of your arm. There's more to using a sword than simply waving it around.

There's technique, stance, prose... It's almost like dancing in a way. And when you reach a high enough level, you'll even be able to understand a person's thoughts simply when you connect blades with them.

[frustratings]

So I really am right back to the basics. [She turns the sword every now and then in her hand.] Since all I did was throw them at people.
