[Ling moves slowly in a series of postures. Block high to the left, to the right, shove forward and then bend back. Each movement is carefully calculated and controlled, moving with the rhythm of his breathing.]

[He flicks the fan closed and proceeds to roll low to the ground to the right and thrust upwards as if jabbing a taller opponent in the vitals. Collect the chi back into a sphere, roll to the left and thrust up to that side as well.]


This is hard if you're not a smaller person. Most of these moves were made for ladies, because it was ancient ladies who carried these fans. You have to have short legs and arms for it to feel right.

[Tomoe has technically seen katas performed. This is the first time she has actually been part of one... It's still bizarre--even a little dizzying to a point.]

Is that so...? It makes sense.
