[There is context to this, though how much you get might be dependent on how well you know Roxas. But it's been on his mind a lot, especially since last month with it's stormy skies led to him taking a pretty big hit from a harpy. Recovery's been a thing, and it gives you time to think, which maybe isn't the best thing.

Maybe it's just been fair to say that Roxas's confidence has been rocked a little. And maybe he's reached a point where he's ready to ask for help.]

I want to get stronger. How do I do that?

Uh, it's kind of what it sounds like...

[It takes a few minutes, but there's a photo of Oathkeeper and Oblivion uploaded.]

[ Okay.... But at least it's not any weirder than his Fusion swords... ]

Have you even been taught the basics?

[seasaltkeys]

Yeah. I sort of know what I'm doing.

A lot of it was like, breaking pots and doing in the field stuff.

Nothing ever...like how to really get better. Or do something specific.

[makoglow]

Just hitting things doesn't teach you anything other than how to just throw your strength around.

There's more to it than that.

[seasaltkeys]

Yeah, I kinda figured. I was just kind of shown the basics and that was that.

So I don't even really know where to start

[makoglow]

A good place to start would be learning proper handling techniques. Not everything is about how hard you can hit your opponent. You just wear yourself out that way.

[seasaltkeys]

[That is. What he normally does though. And it works.]

Right. So. How do I learn that?

[makoglow]

Usually from someone good at teaching that sort of thing.

[seasaltkeys]

Don't suppose you know anyone?
