Dance Like No One's Watching [Video/Action]

[wishmadeinfire]

[Ashura was out in the park today. He had a day off and without Little Ashura around, he had more and more free time. It was... strange, having that free time and not having it filled by a small child walking at his heels or in his arms. He missed that, though. He missed having something or someone to dote on, to cuddle, to wake him in the middle

[ If he were to look up, he'd notice a little girl sitting in a tall tree branch with extremely long hair watching him. ]

[He did, but even her presence did not mean he would stop the movements until he had completed the set.

He finally came to a halt and sighed, straightening and turning to face her.]

Hello, little one.

[sunsprouted]

What was that? That was amazing!

[wishmadeinfire]

OH, I was practicing, is all.

[He sets his blade aside and goes to her, crouching down.]

[princess_tenko]

Absolutely beautiful.

[wishmadeinfire]

[He smiled at the compliment, but like a true warrior or performer he continued with the movements until he had fully finished the set. Finally he relaxed and turned is attention to Ran.]

Thank you.

[princess_tenko]

The old kata are so rare to come by these days...

[wishmadeinfire]

You recognize what I was doing?

[halcyonism]

You are quite talented.

[wishmadeinfire]

[Ashura blinked, finishing the round and lowering his sword. If he breathed heavily he hid it well, smiling at Larsa.]

Thank you Larsa.

[halcyonism]

It is the truth; it felt like I was watching you perform an extremely complicated dance-one that would most definitely be of great use in a real sword fight.

[wishmadeinfire]

Ah, well, you are correct. Those are sword katas from my land. I am a trained swords master.
