[As the feed turns on, there is the sound of the familiar voice.]

Hm...can someone do me a favor? What's today's date?

[Because as she looked into the communicator even more, even she's not too sure if she's reading the date right. It can't be because that's just not right! But then again...

She had seen people who appeared before only to reappear so suddenly. Somewhere in the background, there's a small mumble of "Musharna..."]

You think so too, Musharna? I guess this means that we're back in Asgard again! [Sttaarreeeeeee] ...We're not dreaming this are we?

[ooc: Bianca got canon updated!]

[He laughed.] Learning how to shoot an arrow is the height of simplicity. Striking the target, now that is a different matter. Are you presenting yourself to me for tutelage?

[ourfirststeps]

Tutelage?

[Blink blink]

What's that?

[Anyway!] I don't think making a bow is hard, but you are right! Learning how to hit a target is a lot harder and that's why I should probably practice!

I just need to find a place where I can do that!

[alternia_strength]

...

Bow, not Bow. Why would you wish to strike a target with a bow instead of a bow?

[Yes... they are having this conversation.]

[ourfirststeps]

[......................]

But wouldn't it make things more fun like that? It's much more fun to hit a target with a bow rather than a bow!

[I don't know either]

[alternia_strength]

We might as well strike them with the bow before finishing them off with a bow at close range.

[I will leave you to guess what bow is what.]

[ourfirststeps]

[Bianca just raised an eyebrow. What was he talking about? Oh well, she'll find out eventually!]

Oh, you meant like taking a bow because it shows respect And then hitting them at close range?

[We'll just have to find out!]

[alternia_strength]

No, I was referring to nautical vessels. Strike them with the bow so that they are dazed with you apply the bow's particular skills to the situation.

[ourfirststeps]

[.....]

Ooohhhh, so that's what you meant...

Does that mean it will be a distraction then?

[alternia_strength]

Hmmm concussions qualify as distractions, correct?

[ourfirststeps]

Um...I guess so?

As long as it gets them to stop fighting?

[But...she's starting to feel uncomfortable with this conversation]

[alternia_strength]

Then yes, it qualifies as a distraction. But, enough of that. We have plumbed the depths of this word-play, I imagine. If you wish archery lessons, I can provide them easily enough. We need more archers.

[ourfirststeps]

[You are telling Bianca to be an archer, Equius....

Turn back now while you have a chance!!]

Would you really do that? I remember that I tried some sword lessons before but isn't archery harder?

[alternia_strength]

[He has the possibility of actually having a student?!? It's kind of hard for him to pass up the chance, even if it's doomed to horrible failure.]

It is exceptionally more difficult, taxing and arduous. However, once you have the bit and bridle in, it is a study that far exceeds any other in its focus.

[ourfirststeps]

[Yay Teacher Equius! Be sure to teach Bianca everything, Equius-sensei!]

Hm...I know is that it's something you have to focus a whole lot on your target or else!

But I wouldn't mind giving it a try! If you ever have time, I would like to try archery!

[alternia_strength]

[Great Teacher Zahhak... This would end badly.]

Give me a call after the guest matter is somewhat settled. We will practice then.

[ourfirststeps]

[Or epic...depending on how you go about it]

Okay then! I'll call you when I get there, sir!
