I don't know - whenever. You ready now? she asks.
All right.
Meidani will lead Helen to the training room.
Helen follows Meidani to there. So this is the training room?
Yes, it is.
Has a number of different options. I'm just going to go plain, though.
The first thing I need to do if I'm going to teach you how to fight is test how fit you actually are...
What's she wearing again?
Oh, joy. How fit I am.
She's wearing a pale green dress, and she has an emerald green ribbon in her long blonde hair.
And you probably want to get changed into a training outfit instead of the dress.
They're in that room, and there's a change room leading off it. All right?
All right. She walks off towards the changing room, and changes into a training outfit.
She eventually walks back out, and she's in training clothes, and her hair's magically in a French Braid. Good enough? she asks.
Yep.
How long can you run for?
I honestly have no idea. I usually catch what I'm chasing before I run out of breath. she offhandedly remarks.
Ah. Then I'll need to test that.
I'm going to get you to run laps until you really feel you can't run anymore, okay?
Okay, then. she says. Then she starts running.
And runs.
And runs.
And a bit more...she's in good shape, by the way. No sitting around on the internet for her.
Meidani will wait until she truly can't run anymore, although she's quite impressed already.
Sorry: Forum Backlog or whatever it was called.
Eventually, she gets tired, and hungry, and thirst, because she uses up all the calories. Y'know, 'hitting the wall'. After that, she tries running a bit more, but she's too tired. Okay...I think...I'm...done.she says, breathing heavily.
That's an impressive amount of stamina. I don't think I'll need to train you in that, so I can go straight to combat training.
First...
Meidani gets some recovery-type food and drink for Helen. Eat and drink. You'll want to walk around some to cool down as well.
Thank you. she manages to say. She then grabs the drink and chugs it all down, then eats the recovery food, while walking, as was suggested.
I'm ready enough. she says after a bit to cool down and re-energize. What first?
Right. Show me how you'd stand if you had to fight, please.
Urgh. Deadtime for dinner.
Well...first, I'd get a sword...and point it at them.She acts that part out.
Sorry, I haven't been in many fights.
((okay, dinner's fun.))
Okay, I have a bit more time. Deadtime whithin a couple of posts, though.
I can teach you how to fight unarmed.
The most important thing is the stance. If you've got a good stance, you have more options, and you're harder to knock off balance.
She goes into a fighting stance. Like this. I'll tell you what adjustments you need to make.
Really deadtime now.
Helen tries to mimic the position. She's doing it well, but not really good. Is this it? she asks.
Oh...and I should deadtime for sleep. Goodnight! ((I'm a little tired now))
And she'll stay practicing that position until I come back tomorrow.
Not quite. Close, though.
Meidani will take her through adjustments to the pose, keeping a solid stance and that sort of thing.
She gets caught in the deadtime ooze!

Daisuke, having recieved the news that he is now Vice-President, immediately starts writing up a list.
Once he's done, he seeks out Happy.
Butler undeadtimes in Shania's cell.
Well she didn't try to kill him while he slept. That's always a plus.
Just for fun, Helen is still practicing the stance: And she's doing a bit better.
That's good!
Now, I think we should take a break for today. I want you to keep practicing that stance like I showed you, all right?
Alright. Helykaan says.
Hmm...I should really get my room painted. And make it less dull.
All right.
I'll see you around, then?
Yes, that would be great! she starts to leave, but turns around and asks Sorry, but which way is it back to the rooms?
Meidani gives her directions. If you do get lost, you can always ask one of the drones.
Okay, thanks! She follows the directions back to her room, still in the training outfit. Oh, shoot. I forgot to get her changed. Nevermind that...she's going to be painting anyway. Can't ruin her pretty dress.
In her dull, blank room, she's singing very beautifully while painting her room. Right now, she's covering it all in a coat of white. Then...most of it yellow, then, after drying, she'll paint some green and orange.
Astrid bored heads into the kitchen and starts to cook, a lot of food. She is baking bread, cooking a roast, making a delicious looking salad and throwing together some sort of dessert.
Aldren, is limping around the base, but her stops a little ways outside of helykkans room, when he hears the singing... he sighs happily and plops himself down in the hallway to listen. He's leaning against the wall a couple of feet away from the door. His wings wrapped around him.
