I only just started learning, so I don't know how good a teacher I'll be. But I can try.
Like... [ she does the fist on palm, thumb up gesture for 'help.'] That means help. [ and then after thinking, puts her fingertips together, then spreads her hands and spreads her fingers? ] That means light.
[ rondo starts to imitate the gesture. fist on palm, thumb up - help... and then fingertips and spread hands - light. he looks to ashlyn to watch her movements, copying them very carefully, and also looking for a little bit of approval. like this?
she makes a good point as he's practicing the help one again. help, light. ]
Hmm... is there one for knight? [ why would she know that ] Or... sword? Or...talk?
There... are, but I don't know them. [ me looking them up anyway and going also these are not subtle either. ]
I know quiet. [ hands in an x, then spread out. ] Or... weapon? [ that's kind of close? she points one finger out, then slides her other index finger across it. ]
[ he imitates the fire one big at first... and then brings it down near his chest and like. wiggles his fingers. just a little bit. little fire. ] Like that? We could make them smaller...!

We could use sign language. "Help" stands out a bit, though.

Oh, weapon's not too bad! [ rondo imitates it? two index fingers! ] You could do that off to the side, right? Though, it doesn't really fit...
[ i don't think that actually matters rondo ] - Oh, what about fire?
no subject
has to think about fire for a second but then wiggles her fingers moving her hands up and down a few times. ] That one's also pretty big.
[ but even if it doesn't work for what they're talking about she thinks these are good ones to know in case of an emergency. ]

[ she copies him. hands at her chest and then just. wiggly fingers. ]

So!! If you do that during a conversation and I see it, I'll run over and save you.
no subject
I... [ words. hrmg. ] Appreciate it.
no subject
Of course! I'm happy to help.

...How about 'friend'?

she hooks one index finger around the other to interlock them. then does it again with the other hand on top. ]
Like that.

This is made for silent conversation...? It's very useful.
