17: Exertion (Open Action]

Who: Adela ([personal profile] enchantressofore) & OPEN
What: After recently quitting her job at the forge due to job frustrations, Adela decides to push her luck with her leg and finally take up another love of hers again -- swordplay.
Where: Holodeck'd, Genessia City
When: October 8th to 12th
Notes and Warnings: None as of yet, prone to change dependant on where threads go.

[ It feels good to have her sword in her hands again, even if her footsteps still feel awkward.

Perhaps it's still too soon for this kind of strenuous exercise. Even with magic, her leg does still become sore from time to time. At that point she's mostly attributing it to the weather however, and what Trafalgar doesn't know won't hurt him, right?

It's with this in mind that, with some time off, Adela makes her way to Holodeck'd. It is strange but incredibly useful technology, and with a faceless figure Adela is fighting her hardest. It lets her turn her mind off, thinking of nothing but the opponent in front of her as she once again falls into a familiar dance in her swordplay.

At least, until her leg stalls briefly, causing her to wince and to block sloppily. She can feel the strain in her muscles from that, and she has to wince before yelling to end the simulation.

The images disappear and Adela leaves the room, sitting on a bench outside with a sigh as she rubs at her shoulder. That really hurt more than it should have... But at least it appears like her leg is still in working order -- it must have been a laps in concentration. She'll have to look it over later.

Who else might have been watching? Who knows, but whether she's still at Holodeck'd or is on her way home with the sword, she looks tired and is still rubbing at her shoulder even as she walks home. She needs to learn to block from that angle better... ]

[Jack had mostly kept to himself, exploring the new world he'd found himself in. It was still strange to him, but it kept him busy.

He'd been sitting on a roof top when he noticed Adele walking down the street with a sword and rubbing her shoulder]

Hey! You okay?

[She didn't look to be bleeding or hurt but he still might as well ask right?]

[He jumped from the roof, though looked more to float to the ground as he rested his staff over his shoulders]

You seemed to be rubbing at your shoulders and you have a sword. Were you in a fight?

[He was just concerned as he came a bit closer]

Ah, cool. I haven't used that yet.

I'm Jack Frost, and uh I can help with your shoulder if you want me to?

Just humor me okay?

[He moved over to her before moving his hand to her shoulder]

This might be a bit cold.

[He concentrated and let the cold of his hand move to her shoulder to help with the pain. It wouldn't be painful but she'd definitely feel it as he'd give the muscle an easy massage.]

[personal profile] nipping_at_your_nose 2016-10-09 02:59 am (UTC)(link)
Heh, yeah. Is it helping?

[He continued for a bit more before pulling his hand away though the cold lingered]

I can control cold, ice, winter and such.

[He let the cold die away as he smiled at her]

Nice to meet you too Adela. If you don't mind me asking where did you learn to fight with a sword?

[Jack listened intently as she explained her past. He was always interested in learning about others]

That's really cool! So do you make your own swords?"

[Though the second part gave him pause]

What have you experienced?

[He probably shouldn't be prying but he was curious]
nipping_at_your_nose: (so many questions)

[personal profile] nipping_at_your_nose 2016-10-09 03:24 am (UTC)(link)
It must be very special to you.

[To have made it with a family member it was probably very dear to her. ]

Ah sorry. I shouldn't have asked you something so personal. I'm sure you will be able to become just as good as you ever were.

[personal profile] nipping_at_your_nose 2016-10-09 03:31 am (UTC)(link)
Even better then!

[He grinned as she seemed to relax a bit]

Really? I haven't met anyone else that has the same abilities as I do. What's a devil's fruit?
nipping_at_your_nose: (surprise)

[personal profile] nipping_at_your_nose 2016-10-09 03:51 am (UTC)(link)
[He'd never heard of a fruit being able to give anyone powers like that. Though the whole not being able to swim thing was something he could definitely relate to. ]

You can do magic too?

[She definitely had his attention fully now]

What kind?

nipping_at_your_nose: (surprise)

[personal profile] nipping_at_your_nose 2016-10-09 04:03 am (UTC)(link)
[Jack watched with wide eyes as she manipulated the metal of the sword. It was unlike any magic he'd seen before]

That is amazing!

[ Getting used to life and work in Genessia wasn't hard. It was wake up, have breakfast, shower, and get to work. Often work had him moving around the city, and so far that was how he met most of the people he knew outside of those from his home.

Today would be no different. Though today's patrol also brought him toward a place with technology that was beyond his understanding. He was distracted momentarily by watching the goings on through the window. The ferocity was like watching Mikasa, so it had him admiring briefly.

Only... He vaguely recognized this stranger. The red hair, the small frame. Where had he seen her before?

Eventually, Jean finds himself resting against something, arms crossed as he watched. It beat the boredom of just walking, so why not? When she comes out, he takes a chance to talk to her. ]


Not bad.
takethereigns: (my heart beat?)

[personal profile] takethereigns 2016-10-09 05:16 am (UTC)(link)
[ He snorted softly. Rusty. Jean knew exactly how that was. If he thought getting his ass handed to him was a good time, he'd probably ask Mikasa to spar with him. But he's not exactly suicidal like her best friend.

Not that he knew swordplay, though.

There's something about her eyes that's familiar too, and it makes him think of the city lights at night. ]


Yeah, your leg looked stiff. [ He crosses his arms nonchalantly. ] Have we met somewhere before though? You look familiar.
