Physical Training [It's been too long since Soleil really got into training, and these group get-togethers are always a good excuse for it. For the past half-month, most of her attention has been tied up in trying to sort through some more... complicated feelings regarding the disappearance of her shinki, though by this point it's probably hard to tell that she was ruffled at all by the sunny smile she's wearing for the day.
Truly, a day outside, with fresh air and flowers, will do wonders for one's psyche.]
It's a shame about these trees, I'm sure they must be stunning in full bloom.
[She is, at the very least, helping with the effort of beautifying the area. The ground flowers seem to be doing well enough, but tending to the sick trees becomes a pretty prime learning opportunity for tending to her own temple's landscape. Helping tie up some straw to the trunks is easy enough, as is climbing up to reach some of the higher branches affected by the rot.]
Need a hand with that?
[Struggling to climb one of the trunks? Need help holding stuff in place? You have one friendly face here ready to help out! Of course, a little later in the day she'll be available for sparring practice as well, should extra partners be needed!]
Rest and Refreshments [Tea is, as always, a very welcome part of training days, though the real star of today's session is the unusual dinner set-up.]
This is quite different... [Sweet pancakes, she's more familiar with. Savory pancakes... this is an interesting change of pace.] I'm not sure I get how to use these properly. [The tiny spatulas, that is. What a conundrum.]
Hey, do you have the hang of this? [Rather than make one disaster-meal after another, maybe a little guidance will do her well. And, surely, whoever may be seated next to her has a better grasp than she does, right?] Let me see you make one!
Wildcard [If you have some other idea, hit me up via pm or over at sandshrew, or just throw something my way and I'll roll with it!]
