[have the sound of a prank call what might be...heavy breathing...? (It's actually a muffled air pump, deliberately kept at a distance from the journal. Makes this more authentic, because she's above actually breathing on the journal. gross.)

Minutes pass, and if you'd stayed around despite the obnoxious noise, a message in writing completely unlike that of her usual style appears]

I have heard that the forest makes a good place to practice [pause] potentially dangerous activities without worrying that I might hurt another person by accident.

Does anyone know of other locations which might work?

[not that she intends to utilize any suggestions, mind. Just wants to know, Because Reasons]

Depends what kind of thing you're practicing specifically.

[deterrence]

I can split the ground open. [not herself specifically, but. Same difference]

[webbing]

So... you probably don't want to do that somewhere that has a lot of trees then.

[deterrence]

That's what I thought, too.

[webbing]

That's not going to be easy to find a place where people aren't around.

[deterrence]

Yes. I'd like to stay away from the castle and immediate area, but I don't know where I should go. [and might avoid the places he comes up with as well, because there's the risk of at least one more person who knows about them]

[webbing]

[ He's trying to think. ]

If you don't get too close to the stables you can probably do something small around that area?

[deterrence]

[Kiyohime's presence alone could startle whatever lives in the stables...but she makes a mental note of this anyway, for when she needs some privacy]

That may be good. It seems as though residents usually don't go there, unless they want to obtain a mount.

[webbing]

[ You never know with those weird, vaguely mythical creatures in the stables... the horses though? Yeah they'd probably spook. ]

Or they want to check up on the asshole unicorn they were left to take care of... just saying hypothetically.

[deterrence]

[. . .]

Asshole unicorn? [no, it does not look any less odd when put in writing]

[webbing]

It's a long story that I think everyone would be happier if we just skipped.

[deterrence]

All right. I just need to remember that it's there.

[webbing]

Don't worry, it's pretty easy to fine.

[deterrence]

[of course he can't see, but that got an amused smile out of her]

I expect it will. Thanks for telling me about it, though.

[webbing]

No problem. Always glad to be of help.

dictated!!!!!!!!!!

[amiable]

... Can't use the gym?

still with the disguised handwriting★

[deterrence]

Not unless I want to destroy it.

so mysterious

[amiable]

Destroy?!

hehhh

[deterrence]

Too confined. I shouldn't try this indoors.

[amiable]

What are you trying? [ SUSPICIOUS... ]

[deterrence]

[how is this suspicious!]

My skills are getting rusty. I want to get some training in.

[amiable]

What kind of skills? [ What sort of power does this person have to do that sort of damage? ]

[deterrence]

For combat. [hey, even if she really wanted to practice, she knows better than to do her usual thing indoors]

[amiable]

What about um... What's it called?

The Danger Room? [ Isn't that where people train sometimes? She knows she's heard of it a few times. ]

[deterrence]

I've heard of it. [went in there once, months ago. But she was on a loss back then, and more importantly:] I need a key to enter, correct?

[amiable]

I think so... I don't know who to ask about that, though.

[ A beat. ]

Do you think a filter would work?

[deterrence]

Probably. I'll try it and see if I can get some responses.

[amiable]

Good luck, then! Be careful, too... [ PLEASE DON'T BLOW UP ANYTHING. ]

[deterrence]

[the only way to stop things from blowing up is for her to not begin in the first place, so. All will be well. 8|b]

Thank you.
