[Today, Leon is practically living in one of the battle dome rooms. How many times now had he put off actual combat practice? There had been a few distractions here and there, but he had to admit to himself that a good majority of the time was spent tinkering with symbols and gems in his lab.

When was the last time there had been a large draft? Four months ago? Was that the last time he had swung his sword around for any good reason for more than a few minutes? His lack of practice shows in his awkward test swings. Even with a practice simulation to fight, he's quickly tiring. Claude would probably laugh at the mistakes he was making.

Leon huffs and moves on to Symbology practice, switching from the Claude's Silvance to his own Heraldry blade. Even within the barrier and with the lower augmentation of his sword, he's able to quickly form ice needles and arc black sabers across the room. When he switches to one of his Symbology tomes, he increases his range and covers the walls in a thick layer of ice. And then shatters the ice with a decisive flick of one hand.

Later on, towards the mid-afternoon, Leon trudges over to the plaza to go looking for something to eat. First the bakery to check out the pastries for the day, then the coffee shop to order something cold, and then over to the grocery store to grab something for the inevitable midnight munchies.]

Elizabeth cheerfully waves in the plaza from the bakery. It looks like she has enough to feed a house as she heads out and walks towards him.

"Hello Leon! It still amazes me the fact that even without coin here one can gather so many niceties of life!"

Well since someone else prosed...

When Sokka spied Leon heading to the Battle Dome, he was curious. He hadn't really ever seen Leon in action. At least, battle-type action. So he watched him from the viewing area until his scenario ended. Then he made his way down. Casually.

"Nice moves," he observed, acting as if he'd only happened to spot Leon in training.

Cute ears.

[On that terrible introductory note, Isamu nears Leon's area of the battledome. Actually, is it an introduction? The teen looks familiar.]

Seen them before, I think. Idle chatting or some other bullshit on the journals probably.

Sweet spellwork, by the way.

[Leon might have been putting off combat practice, but Fayt had been putting in plenty of time for practice in symbology in particular. He and Cliff had something of a vague routine going, now... practicing focus with Cliff and on his own time, while practicing Symbology on his own.

He still wasn't sure he was getting anywhere, but while it might be wishful thinking on his part, he thought his speed with invocation might have gotten faster just a tiny bit. He's stuck waiting for a room when the session timer in Leon's runs out, and he's a bit surprised to see who's inside when the door slides open.] Oh hey-- Leon?
