Heated Practice[Open]

[Deleted]

Remus allowed himself to reveal some of his excitement when Gawain began to demonstrate shooting pebbles into the air, though not at the prospect of leaning something new. It had been one of the first things he was able to do when he received his power, and he'd been practicing it whenever he had the chance. Though he didn't have the speed that Gawain had, he did pride himself in his distance and accuracy.

"Ah, I'm decently familiar with that art," Remus said, his head nodding in a determined manner; this was the only aspect of his new power he felt comfortable with, however useful it was. Focusing on a pebble and closing his eyes, he drew upon his power and felt the rock levitate a hair width from the ground. With a sharp snap, the pebble was gone, revealing itself a splitsecond later with a small thunk. It had lightly impaled itself in a tree a short distance away, remaining lodged in the bark for a few moments before dropping down. However, the display took quite a bit of Remus's already heat drained energy.

"I've always found that particular aspect rather entertaining; its quite helpful to entertain oneself on journeys, and I guess I made a habit of it." He said, still smiling, "I always found it to be more accurate if you put a fast spin on it. That also seems to help with the distance, making it more stable."

"Um, I feel it easier to do that if you imagine using your energy directly," Remus said with an embarrassed grin, happy to have something to give back.

Gawain

He was surprised at Remus's display at skills, but not intimidated. Gawain hadn't finished his lesson yet. He was, however, shocked when Remus tried to say that he found doing it another way easier. His shoulders came up in a shrug. " I guess it's whatever works for you." Gawain turned back to his pebbles. "I did have one more tip however." He flicked his ear and the pebble slammed into the tree, denting the bark. It had gone much faster than the last ones. He looked back at Remus to explain. "It may have gone faster because of how you use your power. You said you imagine it more like the actual power instead of a paw. In a way, your surface area may be smaller then. This would allow you to add more power to a smaller area. My next piece of advice was going to be imagining your paw as being extremely small. This allows you to apply more force to a small place. Then your power is focused in one area. It also helps to preserve endurance, because you're not using unnecessary force." Gawain shrugged again. "That's pretty much all the advice I have for your." An idea came to mind. "I do know someone who might be able to give us both advice though. She has an extremely powerful soil power. Her name is Perjury and she is the alphess of Frigid Plague. What do you say we pay her a visit and have a lesson from a pro?" Gawain's tail went into a frenzy at the prospect of getting to visit the alphess.

"Well, we don't necessarily have this down to a science, do we? Perhaps there are many ways of using a power, or only one with differing viewpoints," Remus pondered aloud.

Remus's ears perked up at the mention of Perjury; apparently she was quite famous around the region, as he had heard her name quite frequently. Since he had first joined Honovi, he'd been meaning to pay her a visit for the exact reason Gawain had suggested. But his pack leader had suggested an escort, preventing him from going for some time. Of course, like any other wolf, he had his own mischievous thoughts of going alone to satisfy his craving of knowledge, but the threat of causing trouble in a foreign pack was all too present. In that light, Remus had decided it was better not to risk being reported by an allied pack to his new leader like some naughty pup, but instead to wait. Although he was fairly certain that Gawain didn't count as the escort Treason had imagined, he was still as escort. Remus dipped his head in agreement, signaling he was willing to go. The black wolf couldn't help but to chuckled when he saw Gawain's tail going wild with excitement; he too felt a somewhat equal sense of eagerness, something he had not felt in quite some time.

"I've been meaning to pay her a visit; Frigid Plague is closely allied with my pack, the Honovi. Her powers are well known throughout the region."

Remus nodded again, looking forward to the prospect of another adventure, but this time with a newfound friend.

"Ok, lets go! To Frigid Plague!"

((Okay. It's kinda pointless for me to post again. So, if you want to start a new thread and tag me and Cas that would be cool. ^_^))
