[He jerked back as well, enough that his center of gravity shifted and he was on his rear. He wouldn't let that break his stride, however.]

Uh, sorry, y'looked asleep.

[He nodded. She didn't look hurt, so maybe she really was just meditating.]

That actually work?

[hyuuga]

Sorry... [It's immediate, but genuine. But if it was meant for worrying him enough to check up on her, or for startling him right back, or both, not even she likely knows. It's likely the third one, though.] Um, for...for worrying you.

And...it does. For me, at least.

[topgun_textiles]

Don't worry about it.

[He crossed his legs then, curious as he propped his hands against his knees and slouched a bit.]

S'with the ones who meditate under a waterfall? Does that work?

[hyuuga]

It does...in a way. Um, it's more of an intensive mediation, though.

[She relaxes a little as well, pushing herself into sitting upright and proper again.]

The, um, the water falling against their body...it's a distraction, but one they are usually learning to ignore. While also increasing their endurance. [Because cold water continuously falling on a body is also a test of much of it you can handle.]

[topgun_textiles]

Tryin' not to get sick while they're doin' it, right?

[He sat upright again and canted his head back, eyes closed. He felt a little silly, but he was trying to find different ways to work on his resonance problems. Meditation tightened your focus, and 'sound body and mind makes for a sound soul', right?]

I'm gonna try this meditation stuff. Right here.

[A deep breath through his nose, released slowly, and he tried to remain still.]

[A pause.]

I can skip the 'oomm' stuff, yeah?

[hyuuga]

[She nods.] That, and well...trying not to feel the pain of the water, too.

[She watches him, somewhat amused and somewhat curious. She's never actually had anyone try to meditate near her as everyone in her family knew how to. And they usually did so away from her.]

Yes, you can definitely skip it.. [She's amused, and breathes out a laugh.] I-I never really understood why some would say it.. But just...relax. And try to keep your mind clear.

[topgun_textiles]

[And he tried to do so. Clear the mind... think of nothing. All those nagging thoughts were floating around within, a recent punch below the belt threatening to ruin his concentration completely.]

[Soon he was feeling... serene, for the first time in a while. Sitting there in the cool grass, listening to the breeze through the trees, the birds trilling now and again was helping the usually fiery Kanji to relax. Soon he slowly nodded. Was he doing it right...?]
