pretty good!!! since vin is a combatant she can probably tell he's getting used to the weapon - every now and then, his swings are a little off, but he stops, readjusts, and fixes them like he's accounting for the weight and shape of the sword in his hands. i can't remember if i linked this to you yet or not but it looks like this.
she'll also notice he's
loud. making noises with each swing - lots of "hah!" "hya!", et cetera. you could hear him coming from miles away. ]
no subject
You shouldn't draw that much attention.
[she says instead of announcing her presence at all first]
no subject
Miss Vin?! [ AAAAH HIS HEART ] Where - you really are very sneaky!
no subject
[thanks vin]
no subject
[ he says, with a laugh, resting the tip of the sword carefully down in the ground. ]
Good morning. You're nearly the opposite of me, I think...! [ when it comes to drawing attention. also she's half his size ] That's not the first time I've heard that one.
no subject
[sometimes you just have assassin instincts]
Either way, I wouldn't recommend letting your guard down.
no subject
[ rondo repeats, like perhaps.. this is a phrase he's heard many times... ]
I'm really bad at sneaking up on anyone, but I guess I never thought about it in the reverse, either...
no subject
[she doesn't actually say that in a particularly mean way but also vin please]
Who said that to you?
no subject
[ HE JUST AGREES
anyway - he brightens a little at first, and then it fades, and rondo sheathes the sword, looking down. ] ... Someone very dear to me.
[ vin can see as he says that, some ink forms on his chest, on his heart. Not being able to stop him. ]
no subject
I see. Well - they were correct.
no subject
Haha... yeah.... he... [ ..... ] ...well, there are a lot of things he was correct about.
[ there's a beat, as he reads vin's face - his expression goes ?? and then, he looks down at himself - spotting the ink splat, his expression falls a little, and he reaches up to touch it with two fingertips, absently. ]
...Ha. This is a strange curse, isn't it...?
no subject
[but she thinks Many Things are annoying, so.]
no subject
[ he prods a little at the spot again, seeing if it'll move. it does not. ]
... um, it's... fine. It's not a big deal.
no subject
Is it uncomfortable at all?
[as she asks, ink reading the collapse spreads across her arm]
no subject
[ he trails off, because he looks at her arm. ]
....um, Miss Vin. [ nodding his head a little to her arm... ]
no subject
'Miss' isn't necessary.
no subject
[ ... ]
Do you want me to pretend I didn't see it?
no subject
If you're not actually able to forget it, I don't want you to pretend you did.
no subject
-- Well, if it helps, I don't know what it means. [ ehe... though he does want to ask, but he can be respectful. ]
no subject
[frowns, as usual.]
It doesn't matter. Like you said, it isn't painful.
no subject
A historic event...? That is really strange... [ ?? ??? rondo touches his own again, frowning. his is definitely extremely personal. ] I think they change, too... Mine said something different, earlier.
no subject
What did it say earlier?
no subject
... It was about my sister.
no subject
I see.
[she sounds curious, but she doesn't say more than that for now.]
no subject
Mmm. [ the words seem to melt and change as if they're responding - the phrase shifting into new words, now. leaving her behind. ]
... My little sister - she's a little younger than you are. I haven't been able to see her in person in a long time. Years, now.
