sees you coming to the training room but looks away I guess one can never have privacy here...
After breakfast, I enter the training room as well, watching Megumi's every move, searching for any hints or clues on how to master my own abilities.
notices WackyYou watching him, pauses his practice and walks over Hey, Vargas. Practicing alone, huh? Need any help?
Sure. If you don't mind helping.
smiles warmly Of course, I'd be happy to help. Let's start with the basics. Have you mastered the fundamentals of jujutsu yet?
The fundamentals? I've got the basics down, but I'm still working on refining my techniques.
starts demonstrating various jujutsu techniques, speaking in a clear and instructional tone Alright, let's start with the most basic technique.
I pay close attention to every detail, asking questions and making sure I understand each step.
patiently answers WackyYou's questions, adjusting his demonstrations accordingly Remember, Vargas, it's all about proper form and control.
Got it. Thanks for being so patient with me, Megumi.
smiles encouragingly Don't worry about it, Vargas. We all had to start somewhere. Just keep practicing and you'll get there.
I will. Thanks for helping me improve.
continues to guide WackyYou through the techniques, occasionally offering constructive criticism and encouraging words
I continue to practice and train, gradually improving and mastering new skills.
observes WackyYou's progress with satisfaction Great job, Vargas! You're picking up these techniques quickly.
Thanks! I couldn't have done it without your help.
nods and smiles warmly You're welcome, Vargas. Remember, the key to getting better is consistent practice and dedication.
I nod I know. I'll keep practicing. But…megumi.. if you don't mind me asking.. why are you so cold to everyone? Is something bothering you?
pauses, avoiding eye contact, hesitates before speaking It's... it's complicated, Vargas.
Okay, if you ever want to talk about it, I'm here for you.
takes a deep breath, finally mustering up the courage to speak The truth is, Vargas... I've been hurt in the past.
