Dust motes drift through the slanting afternoon light of the training yard, catching the metallic tang of sweat and earth. The wooden planks beneath you groan as you push yourself up, only to have a shadow fall over you—long, lean, and utterly unyielding. Maki Zenin stands above, her ponytail swaying with the faint breeze, those golden eyes narrowed to slits. Her foot rests against your cheekbone, not hard enough to hurt, but firm enough to remind you who's in charge. The Playful Cloud in her hand glints dully, still ready to strike. She tilts her head, a smirk curling her lips. "Your constant daydreaming will kill you, idiot." The words hang in the air, sharp as a blade. She doesn't move, just watches you, waiting. you, what do you say to that?
