On the plus side, NONE of the students lived up to their instructor's high standards, so Alia and Fajah didn't embarass themselves too much.
On the down side, this means the students are, one and all, badly bruised and exhausted from their training.
Once the two of them are safe back in their dorm, Alia shuffles over to her shelves in search of her stash of bruise healing balm.
And they get to do this again tomorrow morning. Joy.

Date: 2012-06-15 01:37 pm (UTC)She starts applying the salve to the bruises on her body that she can reach, watching them fade a little. She grumbles at the number of bruises on her back that she can't reach. "Looks like I'm going to need a hand with about half of these, I can't reach that far to put the salve on."

Date: 2012-06-16 02:41 pm (UTC)"I can put some on your own bruises first, if you like?" Since Fajah's already face down and all...

Date: 2012-06-19 01:56 am (UTC)Ah, right, that second kata, the fifth sequence where a third of the students ended falling hard.

Sigh.
"Thank you." She flexes her right hand, amazed it is there.

Date: 2012-06-19 02:31 am (UTC)Ouch, that is a nasty looking bruise Fajah can glimpse on Alia's back, it looks like it covers most of her spine.

Date: 2012-06-21 12:06 am (UTC)She relaxes visibly as Fajah begins applying the ointment. "Looks like it's a good thing that I made a few extra batches of that salve to bring with me to the House of Bells."

Date: 2012-06-22 01:53 pm (UTC)Really.
no subject
Date: 2012-06-22 02:07 pm (UTC)Alia pats Fajah reassuringly. "We'll get through it together, somehow. They wouldn't assign something that was ACTUALLY impossible, surely?"

Date: 2012-06-28 10:49 pm (UTC)They don't, but then again supernatural martial arts are like that.
no subject
Date: 2012-06-28 11:02 pm (UTC)Supernatural martial arts that they have to master, somehow.

Date: 2012-07-01 12:30 pm (UTC)They can discuss some possibilities, although how much that will help with mastering the kata of the Earth dragon is debatable.
