[The video is partially askew- tilted half away from where Aqua's standing; in what looks to be the middle of her room. She's forgone her usual attire for a her shorts and a t-shirt, using the lighter clothes to stretch in. Arms, legs, back, neck, rolling her shoulders and bending in a slow sort of pirouette. Anyone who'd seen her fight or train before would recognize a much slower version of her some of her more favored moves. But it's all slow, careful, her breath kept even, eyes closed as if she were meditating.
It's only after a few minutes that she finally comes to a stop, stasis. If only for a moment. One arm extends before her, hand held out-- the chime of summoning echoes quietly into the room, the gentle rush of flower petals escorting Rainfell into her grasp. But it's shaky, her arm quivering the moment the Keyblade is in her hand. Only the side of her face is visible, but even just from that it's easy to see the bit of strain there, the little frown and purse of her lips.
Eventually she has to let go, dismissing the blade with a release of air. She still can't do it; can't keep her Keyblade out without her heart twinging, aching. Magic was possible, but only intensified the problem. Aqua lets out a sigh, finally turning away towards the bed just off screen. The feed times out a few seconds later.]
