May one inquire the nature of what it is that you are doing? *Says the tall dhampir with the long blond hair.*

Have you fought a lot before, my lady?
no subject
Me? Oh, no. I've never fought in my life.
no subject
If you wish to learn proper form, it is best to learn from someone skilled in the art.

Or...I suppose I could show you something.
no subject
You would? I mean...I wouldn't be a bother or anything, would I?
no subject
My name is Alucard.
no subject
It's a pleasure to meet you, Alucard. I'm Flora Reinhold.

Um...hello, miss.
[She doesn't really know how to start going into all of the things that are wrong with Flora's fighting stance, so she'll try to tactfully approach it from another angle. Particularly since Flora looks like she's closer to Hinata or Neji's age, and it would be rude to flat out tell her.]
Would you like someone to practice with?
[ Open! ]
[ She's surprised by the request but smiles and nods. She would get better if she had someone else there, right? Besides, she knows her stance is dreadful, and maybe this person would be able to help make it...less. Dreadful. ]
I would love to have someone practice with me, thank you.
[ Open! ]
[Hanabi gets into a fighting stance. Hers, by contrast, is the fighting stance of someone who has spent roughly eight and a half of her nearly eleven years learning to fight.]
Let's try a beginner exercise. Take three punches or kicks toward me, and I'll move back. Then I'll aim three at you while you move back. We'll start slow and then speed up.
[ Open! ]
[ She notices the difference between Hanabi's stance and her own immediately, and does her best to mimic it. It looks slightly better, but she still has a long way to go. ]
Punches, r-right. [ She takes a deep breath and--Not really trusting herself to kick without falling over--moves to weakly punch toward Hanabi. ]
[ Open! ]
When it's Flora's turn to dodge, Hanabi makes her first punch very slow. Her wrist is kept tight and straight, and at first the outer side of her thumb is facing upward as she slowly extends her arm. Once it is about three quarters of the way, she turns her hand around so that her thumb is facing to the side instead.]
It's good to keep your wrist straight, so you don't accidentally hurt yourself, and you can get in a little extra power in your punch if you turn it at the last moment.
[The second and third ones come in a little faster, but she's careful to give Flora ample opportunity to move, coming in at a pace that would be roughly that of a fast walk.]
[ Open! ]
[ She carefully steps back to avoid the punches, concentrating on Hanabi's movements to try and commit it all to memory. Observing someone else fighting would help her improve, right?
Well, she hopes that's the case, anyway.
When it's her turn, she mutters to herself as a reminder to keep her wrist straight, and turn her fist at the last minute--and then moves towards Hanabi, slowly and deliberately punching in her direction. She manages to keep her wrist straight 80% of the time, at least! Though she's not having much luck turning her fist. She seems to forget to, half the time. ]
[ Open! ]
[She steps aside and demonstrates the motion for Flora, slowly, so that she can see how it's supposed to be done. Afterward, she springs back in place.]
Here...try three more punches toward me, Flora.
[ Open! ]
[ She practices it a few times before actually moving towards Hanabi, still moving slow, but making sure to turn her fist at the very end. ]
Like that?
