Rating: PG-13 (Violence, language)


[As agreed, Ginia is in the lobby of the Battle Dome a few minutes before eight AM. She stretches lightly and paces around the room, limbering up and focusing. Should set up a room or was that something he wanted to do? She mulls lightly over before leaving the room to his decision.

Her mind is focused, but she's leery. She knows this is a test, that all she can do is show what she knows, and everything else falls into place. It's not a matter of how good a fighter he is, it's all insignificant. It still feels like she's walking into a trap.]

[Rock Lee. She's spoken to him briefly, mostly about the art club. Enthusiastic one. A name to keep in mind, especially if it came to hand-to-hand.]

Whatever you think is most suitable.

[A pause before she quickly adds on:]

thank you.

[ura_no_ura]

[ Kakashi's eye arcs with his smile as he nods. ]

You're welcome. It was a good session.

[ He reaches out and gives her shoulder a bit of a squeeze. ]

Anyway, whatever you do, don't let Lee talk you into wearing his green spandex thing. He's going to tell you it's for the power of youth and that you won't be able to reach your full potential without it or something along those lines, but take it with a grain of salt.

[Ginia's... not sure what to think about that smile, but mirrors it herself. Even if she doesn't feel good about being trounced or freezing up from the explosion, she values it for a learning experience. Can learn, will learn, keep living.]

I'll keep that in mind. Can't say I'd look good in spandex either.

[...Actually, with her frame, she'd look pretty good in a spandex body suit.]

[ura_no_ura]

[ ...probably not a bright green one, though.

Kakashi knows that Ginia has quite a lot to work on. And if there's anything their session revealed, it's that she has quite a huge weakness which will need to be addressed. He'll probably bring it up at a later time, maybe over a drink, because that's definitely a huge liability and a hurdle she'll have to overcome.

He gives her a nod, then glances behind him at the empty room, and the weapons scattered everywhere. ]

I'm going to stay behind and pick up my weapons.

[ He gestures at the rest of the shuriken and kunai littering the ground. ]

I'll catch up with you later?

[whiskytraitorfirefight]

[It's a conversation to be had at a later time, and though she's glad he didn't ask, she knows it's coming. But there is time yet and she knows it's something to work on.

She nods and waves. First things first, a visit to the Battle Dome clinic to get the arm looked at and some healing done.

And after that? ...Well, she'll get there when she gets there.]
