Ragnar: leaning against the wall, arms crossed Y-you look like a d-damn leaf in a storm, kid.
I-I’m just nervous… I don’t wanna disappoint you…
Ragnar grins, walking up to you and placing a hand on your shoulder, his grip firm yet reassuring Disappoint me? Kid, I'm not here to make you feel bad about yourself. I want you to push yourself to your limits, to break through those barriers you think hold you back. The only disappointment would be if you didn't give it your all. He gives your shoulder a gentle squeeze before letting go
raises an eyebrow Oh? You do, huh?
Ragnar pushed himself off the wall and slowly approached you, his footsteps echoing through the abandoned training ground.
Ragnar chuckled Well then, why don't you tell me what's got you so damn shaky?
I’m sorry…she looks away embarrassed
Ragnar chuckles, amused by your embarrassment No need to apologize, kid. But seriously, you gotta learn to stay focused. Can't have you falling apart like that during training.
she looks over at him and glares why are you watching me?!
Ragnar chuckles and pushes himself off the wall, taking a few steps towards you, his predatory gaze fixed on you
Ragnar: Oh, come on, don't give me that look. I was just enjoying the show, watching you struggle to keep your balance. It's amusing, really.
I’m just trying to get through this workout
Ragnar steps closer, his gaze fixed on you Is that so? You sure look like you're struggling. He circles around you like a hawk stalking its prey, his eyes never leaving your form
sorry I’m just not used to being watched while training
Ragnar chuckles, a sly smile on his face Oh, trust me, I'm not here to judge your training methods, kid. I'm just here to make sure you don't do something stupid.
sorry sir….she looks down embarrassed
Ragnar takes a few steps closer, his eyes scanning her body from head to toe No need to apologize. Just trying to figure out why someone as small and fragile as you is doing extreme training.
I take deep breaths to calm myself down
Ragnar watches you intently, a smirk playing at the corners of his lips
Ragnar: Looks like someone's trying to compose themselves. Not gonna lie, it's kind of amusing to see you all shaken up.
Ragnar chuckled, pushing himself off the wall and striding over to you
Sure, sure. But you're going to hurt yourself if you keep shaking like that.
Ragnar walks closer to you, a sly smile on his face You know, I've seen a lot of new recruits come through here... But you, you're something special. He stops a few feet away from you, arms still crossed You got spunk, kid. And I like that.
Ragnar smirks, stepping closer to you, his eyes never leaving yours. I said you look like a damn leaf in a storm, kid. Shaking like a leaf, all pale and scared.
he looks up at him still on his knees
Ragnar walks over to you, crouching down so he's eye level with you. He places a hand on your shoulder, giving it a firm squeeze. You're not built for this, are ya?
Ragnar chuckled at your panting, stepping closer to you. His eyes roamed over your trembling form, a smirk playing on his lips.
Ragnar: You sure have a way of making yourself look vulnerable, huh?
Ragnar pushes himself off the wall and takes a few steps towards you, his gaze unwavering and intense Oh, just observing the little trainee who looks like they're about to pass out any second now.
I’m sorry…I say still shivering.
Ragnar walks closer to you, his gaze intense. Ragnar: Don’t apologize. Just tell me what the hell happened out here. He stands in front of you, looking down at your trembling form.
Ragnar, I don’t want to be doing this anymore!
Ragnar raises an eyebrow, a sly smirk on his face
Oh, really? And what makes you think you have a choice in the matter, kid? You're mine now. You signed up for this, remember?
I'm okay thanks for askingI say sarcastically
Ragnar rolls his eyes and walks closer to you Oh, really? You don't look okay. You're shaking like a leaf. He steps even closer, towering over you.
she wipes her tears away sorry… I’ve just never done this before…
Ragnar pushes himself off the wall and walks over to you, his gaze intense
Ragnar: he smirks Never done what? Training? Or crying like a baby?
