Pffffffthahaha. Only YOU would think that meant training.
It's more of an emotional thing. I hear it's different for everyone. I heard some people say they had to get super angry, or sad, or desperate, or scared.
[ Adora's right where she said she'd be, chilling against a wall near the entrance to the Safehouse. She'd thankfully managed to find a distance where she could wait without keeping any of the new Displaced from coming in and out.
Thankfully, she's looking more put together than she did when Catra left her at the Safehouse. She's managed to get some clothes that aren't the jeans and hoodie from the festival, wearing....weirdly enough, something that looks strikingly close to her clothes from home. A long-sleeved and form-fitting white shirt, and some gray stretchy pants. Clearly having no idea what to do with her newly short hair, it's been left brush back and out of the way. ]
[ Catra meanwhile, has been here a little longer than Adora. She's dressed in some fashionably-ripped black jeans, a black shirt and a red, faux-leather jacket. Her hair is shorter than when Adora last saw it, but not by that much-- she's had some time here to grow it out. Perhaps the biggest difference is that she's missing her face-plate, so some of her hair falls into her face, and someone has convinced her to wear shoes.
(It never lasts long. But she figures she should at least wear them to the safehouse, which is full of goody-two-shoes types ready to tell her off for deviating from the norm at the slightest notice.) ]
[ She starts, but Adora's words stop in their tracks as she takes in Catra's outfit. It suits her almost bizarrely well, a fashion more fitting than even the outfit she was used to seeing her best friend in.
RIGHT, ENOUGH STARING. ]
Hey! You've, uh... This world's fashion really suits you.
[ And then she's taking Catra's hand to drag her off, because otherwise, Adora's never going to get moving. ]
C'mon, I've got everything set up for us. You keeping the shoes on?
[ From anyone else, the compliment would just make Catra grin and say something cocky like "Yeah, I know."
From Adora, who she hasn't heard a kind word from in what feels like years, though? It's different. Her stomach does a weird flip, and she looks away, cheeks pink. ]
What? That's-- I mean, obviously! I look good in everything, duh.
[ There's none of her usual swagger behind it, though. At the second question, she only shrugs, awkward. ]
... I'll take 'em off once we get inside. People here make a fuss about the weirdest things.
Well, you can take them off soon because we're here!
[ Adora's shove aside the beds in the sleeping area as she did with Riku, opening up room for them to spar. It had been hard to find space in the first place, but if anyone had issues with not being able to take a nao for the next while, they hadn't said anything. ]
Not many people were interested in sparring, so no one should bother us for a while.

Date: 2020-02-22 02:18 pm (UTC)Oh. Um. I dunno yet either. I haven't been here that much longer than you. I guess it's just something really obscure...
[ She feels bad, lying to Adora when she's like this.
But what if Adora remembers, and hates her again? Then she needs all the advantage she can get. ]

[ Adora could workout and train for hours if that's what was needed. Because who takes a break when you
