[Shang had a bit of trouble sleeping last night, since his recent talk with Mulan. Granted, a part of him knows that she would come back, but his doubts have clouded him as always, so he didn't get much rest. He hasn't seen her as of yet, so he tried to focus his mind on his morning training instead. Unfortunately, the anxiety was affecting his

[Ask and you shall recieve]

Your stance is off.

1/3

[captainfrowny]

Yes, well---

2/3

[captainfrowny]

[Holy crap, can it be?!

Turning around now, and...]

[captainfrowny]

[YES IT IS. alskfjalj]

Mulan!

[So many questions he wants to ask, but pff they won't come out properly.]

[dutyorheart]

[She didn't mean to spy, but...

Well. Princess Mei knew who Captain Shang was. One of the heroes of China who had saved their land and her father.

She smiled to herself but didn't dare approach, not wanting to disturb him.]

[captainfrowny]

[Shang hasn't noticed yet that Mei was watching him. However, upon losing his footing and falling to the ground, he finally did see her as he struggled to get up.]

Oh, h-hello Mei! Didn't know that you were here...

[dutyorheart]

O-oh! Are you alright, Captain?

[And the concern is very genuine, her eyes a bit wide.]

[captainfrowny]

Yes, I'm okay. It was just one little slip-up, that's all.

[Cannot say what truly caused it yet, fff.]

[fearthefool]

[Clopin totally meant to spy. There was no bad mood that a free show couldn't fix, and if Shang insisted on training out in the open, then Clopin was going to take full advantage of it.

But he's a trained acrobat, and he notices when a move doesn't flow the way it should]
Your balance is off. You'll hurt yourself if you keep putting your feet down like that.

[captainfrowny]

[Shang was surprised as he turned to look at him. He didn't expect for Clopin to be that observant, but then again, the academy always did have surprises in store, whether it was major or minor.]

...I see. [Puts down his pole and sighs.] Sorry, I've just been a little anxious, that's all.

[fearthefool]

I can see that. [Trots over to Shang] When people are nervous, they hold all of their weight high in their chest, right here.
[thumps Shang hard near his collar]

What's the matter with you?

[captainfrowny]

[Sheepishly scratches the back of his neck and pauses for a minute or so, before he replies.]

Well...there's this person who I really care for, and she promised to come back before she went off to do something risky. It's already morning, and I haven't seen her yet, so I'm worried that she might have gotten taken by the mist or something.

[nocorsetsplease]

Captain Shang?

[No, you don't quite know Elizabeth, but hey... she's saying hello anyway. She's heard of you.]

[captainfrowny]

[Lucky for you that he doesn't know her at all, so have a raised brow as he turns to you.]

Yes?

[nocorsetsplease]

I cannot help but notice you looking... stressed.

Forgive my being so forward, it is probably not my place. I just thought you might want someone to talk to. Goodness, and I still have not introduced myself. Captain Elizabeth Swann, pleased to make your acquaintance. From what I have heard, people speak quite highly of you.

[captainfrowny]

That's alright. I've been a little anxious about something, so that's why. And, it's nice to meet you, Miss Swann.

[Blinks.]

...they do? Huh. That's nice to hear.
