❝ｔｈｉ ｓ ｉｓ ＲＥＡＬ ... ❞

Aqua had been frequenting Destiny Islands a lot lately. She came by most days of the week, now that it was summer and Kairi didn’t have school, to continue the training for her apprentice. While there had been a lot of physical training involved (because Kairi needed to get her strength up), there were some days, like today, that were focused on magic. These days tended to leave both females drained of mana and energy. The need for mental relaxation was strong.

Which was why it should have made sense to Aqua for Kairi to suggest such calming activities after they had spent the morning practicing Aero spells. Yet the Master was still befuddled.

Shopping? Pedicures? These were things foreign to her. Usually, Aqua only went shopping for food so she could bake, and she had never had any of her nails done. Really, Aqua hadn’t ever been to a spa or been pampered. She had trained through her childhood and lived with a bunch of boys. Sure she still retained some femininity, but she had never much engaged in the usual female frivolity.

"Uhm… I… I’ve never really done those things," she admitted hesitantly. "I’m afraid I’d be no fun for it, Kairi. But really, we’re done for today, you can go with your friends if you want!" she tried to offer. It wasn’t that Aqua didn’t want to go— in fact she had been hoping to bond a bit with her apprentice outside training— it was only that she had no clue what or how to do these things. And she didn’t want to inadvertently be a stick in the mud and make the whole afternoon a mess.

     The appropriate response was nothing but expected, really. But this just meant that the younger girl may have had to work a little harder at her attempt to convince her master that having girl time wasn't really all that scary. In fact, Kairi had been there before. Not knowing what was going on, or how to cope with differences at all. She could very clearly understand where the bluette was coming from. 

     "That's okay! I can show you!" Matching pallid lips stretched over the clear complexion that marked her cheeks, small dimples inserting themselves into her usual appearance. 

     Ten digits had formed themselves about the outmost arch in her hip, lapping plainly over the ebony belts that enhanced the vibrant coral cloth that garbed her torso down to her mid-thigh. Today would be great! -- As long as Aqua were concerned with their activities. 

     "I--... I don't really have anyone else to go with, either. Me and Selphie haven't really hung out since I started my training. So, I was thinking that maybe I could show you around, like she did me.-- If that's alright." With that, crimson strands folded neatly over the ivory upon her shoulder, passing the boundaries of the white and black material that embellished the pale of her skin. A nod in her head had caused the skin from her chin to meet that of her neck with a respective bow. Something she'd learned along her way in training.
