Camp Gym; Tuesday Morning.

Too many things on her mind (first and foremost was her....discussion...arguement...whatever) with Ami, of course) had Setsuna training in the gym all morning, dual weilding practise swords as if getting lost in the actions and swings of two was somehow more powerful than just the one. Then again, with her relentless, arching, turning style, it could be fathomed that she was merely trying to create a little bubble for herself with the arches of blades that no one could penetrate for a while.

Ami went to the gym to practice what Setsuna had taught her. If she was not going to get to actually practice much with her friend due to... issues... she should at least practice on her own.

Seeing Setsuna already there, Ami tried her hardest to not interrupt or bother Setsuna in any way. Of course, she did stare. A lot.

...And Setsuna decided that she needed to find more places to go when she had frustrations to work out because she was clearly too easy to find. Still, she was mid-formation workout, anyway, so she'd have the excuse that she was just really into it and didn't notice Ami to fall back on as she kept working and tried to just ignore the other girl. She could be whatever she wanted, huh? Apparantly, alone was an exception....

Ami figured that really if Setsuna wanted to be alone she would not have gone to a public place, where anyone could go. And, if she wanted to be left alone she would say so. Although the body language was definitely hinting in that direction.

So, Ami was going through her own workout, doing it exactly as Setsuna had shown her. It wasn't like she hoped Setsuna would notice or anything.

Of course Setsuna had noticed; the sensei in her couldn't help noticing a student doing their forms (and doing them slightly wrong, but not wrong enough that her own forms had to cease so that she should correct them...she hoped). Of all the mornings Ami decided to come practise....Maybe Setsuna should relocate to the Preserve...

For now, though, heavy forms in her own little world. La.

Ami knew she was doing something wrong, a bit after she did it. So once she finished, she did the forms AGAIN. Better this time.

Ami always was a good student; seeing that she didn't have to go too much into a sensei mode, Setsuna kicked up her own forms a little, moving into the upper tier ones. The ones that would force her to focus on them and not Ami.

Ami was watching Setsuna carefully. And once done with her forms again, decided to try the ones Setsuna was doing.

Once Setsuna realized what it was Ami was trying to do, it had her stopping immediately. //"Ami-chan,"// she said, trying to guard herself really well against the anger and annoyance welling up inside of her, //"what are you doing? These are top tier Shinmei Ryuu forms; you're not ready for them, nor do you have the proper utilization of wind chi to make half of them work..."//

//"Well, if you are going to be mad at me and thus nto teaching me, all i can do is imitate, right?"//

//"Ami-chan, you're smarter than that,"// Setsuna grunted. //"You should know better. And, the last I knew, we did not have a session planned, so I have no actual obligation to teach you right now on my own time."//

//"No you don't. Which is why i was trying to learn something on my own. on my own time."//

//"Trying to pick up high-tier dual-weilding Shinmei Ryuu by just watching?"/ Setsuna asked, eye sliding shut. She could have said more, about how Ami should probably try working on that whole actually hitting people thing first, but she didn't. She didn't want to feel like it was too much of her anger kicking in.

//"If you can do it so can i."// Ami said stubbornly.

Setsuna stared at Ami for a moment, before shaking her head. Why was she bothering holding back? If Ami was going to be like this, choosing stubborn rhetoric over common sense, then she would not feel bad about being harsh.

//"Yes, because training and forms are all just a state of mind, and, oh, that's right, we can do whatever we want in your world just by wanting it, apparently."// She gave one of her practise swords an idly twirl to change her grip on it before turning sharply to return it to the rack. She was done here....

//"I was thinking more in terms of we can do it if we work on it very hard, but if you want to decide yourself what i say rather then listen, you go ahead."// Ami shook her head and decided she needed to jog, or she would just start yelling.

//"Which was precisely what I was saying about you trying those moves, and you pulled that 'whatever I want' nonsense on me,"// Setsuna muttered. //"You have other things you need to work on very hard because you should even start touching those, and that's not a factor of me not teaching you but a factor of you merely not being ready for it...."// She sighed, standing at the weapons rack looking at the swords she'd just put away.

With all Ami said about her not listening, it sure as hell felt like Ami could stand to open her ears up to her a little bit, too...

//"This has nothing to do with what i want or not. All i said was that if you could train enough to do this, so could i. But... you didn't hear that did you? You heard what you wanted to hear."//

//"Yeah, well, I keep sayi--"// Gnashing her teeth together, Setsuna winced and made herself stop. She drew in a deep breath, trying to calm herself, centre herself. //"And I never said you couldn't do them, Ami-chan,"// -- the honourific was very forced at this moment -- //"all I said was that you shouldn't be doing them now. Merely watching is not an acceptable way to pick up things like that. But you...didn't hear that, either, did you? Just heard me saying you couldn't do them, when I was only saying it for your benefit so you didn't do something that could be potentially harmful to yourself or your future training..."//

Ami sighed. This conversation was going nowhere. She could stand her ground, she could point out how she was right, and Setsuna was wrong. But why? It wasn't like it would get through.

She stood very still for a few moments then bowed deeply and formally. //"I humbly apologize sensei. I am of course wrong and you are right."// There was no mocking nor humor in her tone, she was deadly serious. Without letting Setsuna react she straightened out and left the building.

Son of a...

Setsuna grunted, and just about punched the wall in frustration, but pulled back and just let out an annoyed sound before it connected. Because it would have been a punch fueled by demon strength and she didn't feel like trying to explain why she'd punched a hole through the wall in the gym camp.

Billy came in to do a little practicing. He began to stretch, partly to test out his ribs, because he really wanted to get into some of his more advanced forms today.
