Sure. If not, I'll buy a candied apple in your honor." Vas said dryly. Serena frowned. “Can’t you just say I’m not ready yet? Then we go to the fair and both get candy apples?” "That would be a lie now wouldn't it." He said with a wry smile. “A little one that would mean me and you get to ride the Ferris wheel.” She tried. "It's not a little lie. You have worked hard Serena. You trained hard. You'll make it through and after we'll have candied apples and Ferris wheel rides and even dance at the maypole. Well … you can dance at the maypole. I'll just watch." Vas chuckled. "I'll fret the whole time cuz that's what Onii's do and you'll keep reminding me that you're ready for this." Serena looped both hands around his waist and pulled him into a hug. “Don’t fret onii. I’m going to be focused like a tick on a hound dog, I won’t let you down, honest.” "I know," Vas said with a heavy sigh. Serena might be ready for this but he wasn't so sure if [I]he[/i] was. "Let's get some practice in …" Vas said tugging on a pigtail again. “With this knife?” Serena giggled, holding the wooden knife she boosted when she hugged him. "Ha-ha ya little thief." He said failing miserably at not looking absolutely amused. "I was thinking of something a bit more shiny." Vas said, eyeing the genuine knives. “Really?” Serena asked, bouncing on her toes. “Okay! I get first pick!” "Go go … take your pick, it's time you get used to the weight." Vas chuckled. “Can’t go solo with just a piece of wood!” She giggled in response. "Hey, don't shortchange the piece of wood." Vas laughed, feeling a bit better. “Use what you find in your surroundings,” Serena parroted. “Anything can be a weapon if you wield it right.” "Exactly," Vas said, pausing for a moment. "Hey, I just wanna tell you something now no one told me on my first go. You're better than you think you are. I know it feels like I'm always tossing you around but that's just cuz I had more time than you. You're not the same as when you started, okay? You have your mask on [I]your[/I] the scary one and if they ain't scared you make them scared, got it?" He said firmly. [/indent][/indent][/indent]
