"So, the doctors say you're fit for duty again," she told him as they headed toward the workout room. "Let's see, shall we?"

	"Very well, Amiko-san." They were in a public part of the facility, so he was being formal just to be safe. "What did you have in mind?" (Reply to this)(Thread)

	hotlittlehands 2011-12-13 08:04 pm UTC (link)
	"Simple one-on-one combat practice. No magic, no lethal attacks, obviously." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	clawed_progeny 2011-12-13 08:09 pm UTC (link)
	"Obviously," he said with a slight smile. "I imagine if I dared to use that paralysis spell again, you'd put me back in the hospital," he teased lightly. Finally being able to move around had put him in a much better mood. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Such a smart man," she answers. "Just let me know when you're ready." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	clawed_progeny 2011-12-13 08:18 pm UTC (link)
	He nods, doing a few small exercises to make sure his limbs were limber enough to get started. He assumes a stance. "I am ready, Amiko." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotlittlehands 2011-12-13 08:23 pm UTC (link)
	She concentrates as she nods, and tosses one of her heat darts, hoping the sudden sensation will distract him as she moves in. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	clawed_progeny 2011-12-13 08:27 pm UTC (link)
	The feeling of the heat dart does get his attention for a moment. When recognition hits, he does his best to move quickly to block the incoming blow. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotlittlehands 2011-12-13 08:36 pm UTC (link)
	When her first strike is blocked, she does her best to follow it up quickly. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	clawed_progeny 2011-12-13 08:41 pm UTC (link)
	Gods she was fast! He tried to move in time to counter, but the blow hit. It hurt, but rather than anger him, it seemed to be akin to an adrenaline shot. He moved back, using her blow's momentum to allow him to gain some distance quickly. He then knelt down and went for a spinkick to her legs. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotlittlehands 2011-12-13 08:48 pm UTC (link)
	She does her best to jump over the kick, but he catches her foot just enough that she has to hit the ground rolling. Which she does. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	clawed_progeny 2011-12-13 08:53 pm UTC (link)
	He puts on a burst of speed to catch up to her. She had used her darts, so he assumed some mutant power usage was okay. He brought his leg up, but used his bone-density powers to contort it slightly so it would come at an unusual angle when it hit, hoping to catch her off guard. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotlittlehands 2011-12-13 08:59 pm UTC (link)
	She mostly manages to avoid it, but due to the unusual circumstances, ends up taking a highly mitigated hit to the face. With a sharp little cry, she manages to focus on trying to knock him off balance in turn. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	clawed_progeny 2011-12-13 09:03 pm UTC (link)
	Her cry causes a temporary pause in concern, as she turns from his sparring partner to his love. He tries to focus , but ends up being hit by Amiko's kick, causing him to fall back, though he quickly rolls into a crouching position. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotlittlehands 2011-12-13 09:06 pm UTC (link)
	"Sorry, Keiji. You know I'm always more vocal," she says wryly between breaths as she backs off and gets her bearings. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	clawed_progeny 2011-12-13 09:11 pm UTC (link)
	He chuckles, which turns into an outright laugh. He gets back up to his feet. "No need to apologize, love. I should remember that you are more than capable of handling yourself." He cracks his neck to loosen up a bit more. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotlittlehands 2011-12-13 09:13 pm UTC (link)
	And with a bit of a running start, Amiko focuses on trying to get behind him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	clawed_progeny 2011-12-13 09:17 pm UTC (link)
	He sees a blur of black out of the corner of his eyes. He attempts a reverse thrust kick to maintain distance between them. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotlittlehands 2011-12-13 09:24 pm UTC (link)
	She switches from zagging to zigging, as the Americans would say, and has something possibly better than a dart for keeping him off balance. "My father visits next month." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	clawed_progeny 2011-12-13 09:27 pm UTC (link)
	And it works to perfection. "What!?" And the kick veers off target. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotlittlehands 2011-12-13 09:30 pm UTC (link)
	"Next month. You'll recall I said 'In a few months' a few months ago." And she gets the position she wanted and goes to grab his wrist. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	clawed_progeny 2011-12-13 09:32 pm UTC (link)
	Keiji mutters a few choice curses, half in regards to the memory and half at himself for getting careless. He directs a palm thrust at her arm, hoping to dislodge her grip. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotlittlehands 2011-12-13 09:52 pm UTC (link)
	She releases his arm, then goes for something of a shove. "I've tried to be better about talking about him too much, Keiji... is it really going to be so bad?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	clawed_progeny 2011-12-13 09:57 pm UTC (link)
	Her quickly letting go caused his thrust to hit nothing but air, allowing the opening for her shoe to drive him back. He stopped abruptly upon her question. He was quiet for a time. "Honestly? ..I will not know that until he's standing across from me." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotlittlehands 2011-12-13 10:01 pm UTC (link)
	She just stands quietly for a moment in turn. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	clawed_progeny 2011-12-13 10:06 pm UTC (link)
	His posture slackens to the point where he almost seems smaller. "I am..sorry, Amiko-chan." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotlittlehands 2011-12-13 10:08 pm UTC (link)
	She shakes her head. "You don't need to be sorry. Everything is going to be okay. We'll get through this. I know it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	clawed_progeny 2011-12-13 10:12 pm UTC (link)
	He manages a light smile. "Your confidence is heartening, love. ..I will try harder." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotlittlehands 2011-12-13 10:22 pm UTC (link)
	She nods and smiles back. "Shall we have a glass of water?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	clawed_progeny 2011-12-13 10:28 pm UTC (link)
	He nods. "I would like that. Thank you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotlittlehands 2011-12-13 10:32 pm UTC (link)
	She gets them each a glass. "You do seem to be getting back to proper form." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	clawed_progeny 2011-12-13 10:39 pm UTC (link)
	"Thank you. I feel a little slow in some places, but my movements feel smoother than they have had in awhile." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotlittlehands 2011-12-14 12:58 am UTC (link)
	"Seemed so." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	clawed_progeny 2011-12-14 06:34 pm UTC (link)
	"You are as formidable as ever, Amiko-chan," he says before taking a drink of water. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotlittlehands 2011-12-14 06:38 pm UTC (link)
	She smiles. "Thank you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	clawed_progeny 2011-12-14 07:02 pm UTC (link)
	"So," he begins. "how much have I missed?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotlittlehands 2011-12-14 07:05 pm UTC (link)
	"Very little. Mostly just routine work." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	clawed_progeny 2011-12-14 07:10 pm UTC (link)
	"I see. Have you heard from your family since your trip to America?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotlittlehands 2011-12-14 07:13 pm UTC (link)
	"Just my usual duties to the International Misha-Humbling Society," she says, smiling. "He's well." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	clawed_progeny 2011-12-14 07:19 pm UTC (link)
	He chuckles. "That's good to hear." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotlittlehands 2011-12-14 07:30 pm UTC (link)
	"Yes. Misha's always managed to make me happy, even when I was younger and tried to resist..." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	clawed_progeny 2011-12-14 07:37 pm UTC (link)
	That pause caught his attention. "You were uncomfortable with your brother at one point?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotlittlehands 2011-12-14 07:39 pm UTC (link)
	She nods slightly. "I was young, and he was... born too soon. I wasn't ready. But I know my Lady-Mother would have understood." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	clawed_progeny 2011-12-14 07:41 pm UTC (link)
	He walks up to her, and takes in a soft, comforting embrace. "You did not want to believe your father could move on so soon?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

She enjoys being held. "That was a large part of it. I know now that it was just his bad habits. Not about how much he cared for her. But it was hard then. And there was more."

She stays right where she is, her eyes a little distant. "When he came to get me out of the foster care Uncle Kenuichio had allowed me to be put in, he intended to take me to America. I asked him why he couldn't just stay in Japan, and he said that with so many enemies, it would be too dangerous for the baby." She takes a breath. "I love him. I love Misha. But I hate New York. I've always hated it. I wasn't going to live there. I would not leave Japan for good when I had already lost so much. And I knew it was dangerous, but he'd never minded facing the danger for us before. Change was hard then, that was all. And I was a child, and sometimes when I saw Misha I wanted to be angry." Finally, she smiles and shrugs. "But I couldn't, because it's Misha."

	He listens patiently, rocking her a little in his arms. When she finishes, he kisses her on the forehead. "You're a stronger person than I am." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotlittlehands 2011-12-14 08:07 pm UTC (link)
	She holds him tight. "Nonsense. I had advantages, that's all." She smiles at him, eyes meeting his, and observing. "And look at you. Avidly not mentioning that... that my father is a bit of a slut. For me. I appreciate that, Keiji." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	clawed_progeny 2011-12-14 08:13 pm UTC (link)
	"Perhaps..." Keiji reddens a little in a combination of embarrassment and indignation. When he sufficiently composes himself to which he looks somewhat composed, he responds. "You're welcome, love." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hotlittlehands 2011-12-14 08:24 pm UTC (link)
	She kisses his cheek. "And thank you for the workout." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	clawed_progeny 2011-12-14 08:32 pm UTC (link)
	He smiles a little boyishly, like a kid who just received a kiss from the girl he liked. "It was good for me, too." (Reply to this)(Parent)
