The Log:

((Clive stands with his bow over his shoulder, staring forward a moment and sighing. His quiver of arrows--some broken and delicately repaired--sits at his feet and he puts a hand on is hip and frowns.))

Well?

Flora is a daring woman, if given the chance. I remember her having quite the punch.

[ Sasuke wonders if they're talking about the same Flora for a moment, remembering very few times that he'd seen her angry. Oh, if only he knew. ]

... I will still look for her later.

I'll leave that to you, then.

[ . . . ]

Try to aim more... [ "Precisely" is the word he wants, and yet has no mental access to. ] Exact. The center.

You don't think I'm trying that? Come now, I can't be perfect instantly.

Ah. I did not know you were trying for the middle. [ Cold as ice. ]

..My, Sasuke, you do have sass, don't you?

"Sass"? I have not learned that word.

I'm talking about your attitude. It's a compliment.

Fine. Then perhaps you also have "it", whatever "it" is.

((He sets his bow down a minute, and laughs.)) Me? Well, maybe so. That would be an odd way to describe me, but I won't deny its validity.

[ Ah, so many words. And you expect him to know them all. Really, Clive. ]

Validi... ty. Validity. [ His v's still sound a little like b's but he's working on it. ]

((A bit of a smile.)) Very close, but yes. It's the truthfulness of the statement--or sentence. If I say my hair is brown, that would be valid. The statement has validity.

Truthfulness. Alright, I understand that word. [ "Truthfulness"... Sasuke looks Clive over for a moment, trying to associate the word with him. Somehow it's not the best fit in his mind. Imagine that. ]

Are we done for today?

We? I think we mean I...

But sure, WE can be done. Give me a second.

I think it was more trouble for me.

I told you you could go home. It was your own decision to stay,

((Give him a moment to get those arrows.))

I did not say it wasn't. It was good practice for me also.

Well, good.

Come, then... I will leave it as is. Hopefully it's there tomorrow.

I don't think it will be moved and the weather seems fine.

Well, animals are curious creatures.

Ah. If an animal takes it, we will track it and kill it. Good practice for you. [ Yes, there's a smirk of amusement there. ]

Ah, are you a tracker, then?

I am whatever I need to be.

Fluid, then.... that's likely a good thing.
