[Action]

[Either Ike doesn't know about the training center or he doesn't feel he can afford to use it yet, because he's out in the park. He's off the beaten path, in a clear area, wielding a beautiful two-handed sword.

...With one hand.

Other than that, the scene shouldn't look too unusual. The moves that Ike is practicing are all basic sword techniques, because that's all he remembers. Sometimes muscle memory will cause him to do something more complex, but those instances are uncommon.

Approach?]

Huh?

[That gets his attention. He stops.

And yes, he notices the tails. The only thing unusual to him, though, is the number.]

Uh, what do you mean?

I mean, that sword is clearly designed for use with both hands. I would imagine it is quite heavy to wield with but one such as how you are doing it.

You think so? But this was how I was taught to wield it, and I don't have any trouble doing it.

My word, you must be quite strong for a human. I could not imagine trying to heft a blade in such a way myself! To be fair, however, I rarely have had the patience for such styles of combat.

[A laguz using the word "human," but not speaking with any sort of contempt in her voice...Ike isn't quite sure what to make of that.]

My strength is the first thing I noticed when I arrived here. Apparently these muscles aren't just for show.
