Storm -- Probably the most organized about it; they’ve got a method that they probably stick too, and they keep track of all the best resources to learn from -- they’re the sort who could put together a masterlist of resources for other people interested in X thing or Y skill, and they will try out all those resources until they find the ones that work the best; they push themselves hard and tend to pick up new skills fast, though often to the exclusion of other interests or hobbies for a while.

Sky -- The sort to pick out study buddies! They work best when they’re being held accountable, even if it’s just because they told someone they were going to do X thing or learn Y skill; it’s even better if they can have someone they feel comfortable with around to help them; even very introverted Sky flames tend to be people reliant, so this can make or break the experience -- they’re unlikely to be very driven if no one else is involved.

Sun -- Learn best if they keep it fun and lighthearted; Sun types don’t like to exert themselves too much over things that aren’t that serious, so unless something grabs at their passions, they’ll probably work on it a little, drop it for a while, come back to it and work on it a little -- rinse and repeat. Eventually they’ll get the hang of the basics, but they really shine when they’re able to find their niche in a skill -- for example, when learning a language, they might find it a lot easier if they practice their target language through popular music rather than reading newspapers, that sort of thing.

Thunder -- Honestly, they’re mostly learning this new skill for bragging rights, or to impress someone else -- so the more they can show off, the more likely they are to actually stick with it. Because they’re so influenced by how they look to other people, Thunder types are likely to have a smattering of skills that they never fully master, but which they can pull out when they need them -- a jack of all trades situation.

Rain -- They don’t panic over the little details, and this allows them to grasp the basics really fast and then fill in the details over time; they sometimes can appear more skilled in a discipline than they really are because they have such a good foundation; they also are likely to cement these skills in their brain a lot more through consistent practice, so even years without practice don’t have much impact on their actual mastery.

Mist -- Work best if they can mix and match disciplines -- if they want to learn to paint, it’s better if they’re also able to match it with something else they’re interested or skilled in, such as make up or style; because of this, they tend to learn disciplines that relate to each other easily, and branch out from there. This can create a very deep and layered understanding of their various interests, and gives them a deep insight into how these interests work on a more meta-cognitive level -- but it does mean they’re less likely to just pick something up without much consideration. The skills they have are probably skills that they find very useful to begin with, or have natural talent with, and then build on over time -- they don’t tend to follow their passions or heart.

Option A: Favourite Flames

Rain Flames

(or another good excuse to show my endless love for Takeshi Yamamoto)

That brings back a lot of memories: in the 2011 I’ve bought a Rain Vongola Ring and I always wear it, no matter what.

I mean, a rainy storm. A stormy rain ? My english level is really low so I don't know. (but seriously, look at him ! He's like "a problem ? Kill the problem". Just like Xanxus. Who's also a Storm. Coincidence ? I think not.)
