Zeus the Primeape, and Belle the Minccino, clashed against each other during the spar. Belle was swift, making Zeus find trouble on landing strikes and block her attempts to hit him. On another hand, it was clear Zeus resilience and stamina was unmatched. He could take those hits any time and that only made his counter attacks stronger.[break][break]

Thankfully, that was all just a friendly practice, and Thea watched over it attentively, coaching both of them at the same time. "Never drop your guard, Zeus. Belle can land a hit anywhere, but don't let her get your face— Belle! Speed up! Zeus can take this fight much longer than you, so you need to finish it quickly before you are out of breath." She said, but smiled at the improvement of her Pokémon... Except...[break][break]

"... Gominha, you should stand up and try some spar with me at the very least." She complained, looking at the Wigglytuff that was sitting by the edge of the dojo, wiggling her legs while watching the practice.[break][break]

Before Thea could get any more frustrated about the sight, a newcomer caught her attention... And since she was singled out this time, she approached her with a warm smile and a fiery gaze, adjusting the belt of her karategi before bowing. "Good Afternoon! Ready for some practice?" She didn't waste a second to invite her, but then she added: "Or did you come for something else?"[break][break]

From the sidelines, Lydia watched the Pokemon spar. It was quite an artistic ballet, a masterful tale of bobbing and weaving. Though she did not know these creatures, she found herself rooting for the Bellossom. In part because she adored an underdog, but mostly because it reminded her of herself. A small, petite thing deigned more worthy of beauty than utility. Typically categorized as something to be admired rather than respected.
[break][break]
The approach of the trainer made the blonde turn to face Thea. Though the elder, Lydia was the shorter of the two. Notably, she did not lift her chin to meet the teacher’s eyes. Instead, she allowed her gaze to show the direction of her attention. She bobs her head in a simple nod. “Good afternoon.” The hair at the back of her head threatens to spill loose from its bun. “I am.”
[break][break]

Blue eyes glitter almost hungrily.
[break][break]

There is a pause as she allows her bag to drop on the bench beside her. She then removes her jacket, revealing a black sports bra and a washboard where her stomach could be. All over her body were signs of her time in the military, including a tattoo of her squadron on her left shoulder. But mostly there are scars—a few obviously from surgery. There is even a bandaid on her neck—a recent cortisol shot. “You are Mademoiselle Naito, non?”

The blue eyes captivated Thea's, that locked on and lingered the gaze when she noticed the determination in them. A small grin covered her lips, but those soon turned into a 'o' shape when the woman undressed her jacket. That body... It was one of someone that has went through countless battles, and that excited Thea even more.[break][break]

"You look very ready for it too." She hummed, and nodded. "Yes! My name is Thea Naito. My father, the master of this Dojo isn't around today, but I'm taking care of it in his absence." Thea admitted.[break][break]

"Do you have a gi? If not, I can lend you one~" She offered, while the Wigglytuff that was just sitting by the sides, rolled toward her trainer and the guest, squeaking like a balloon[break][break]

"And... Is it just you, or your Pokémon too? We welcome both, as you can see." Thea gestured, being more than happy to welcome more faces to the practice.[break][break]

The Kalosian woman dipped her head in acknowledgment. Beneath those muscles were evidence of prior injuries. Metal plates that held certain joints in place. Surgical scars that ruined the porcelain doll metaphor. Instead of being tense, Lydia seemed oddly relaxed. “I am a caged Arcanine.” The metaphor drew an irritable huff from Minerva. “I do not get enough opportunities to let off steam.”
[break][break]

At the talk of the master’s absence, there is a tiny, barely perceptible sigh. “I see.” Lydia intones, “That is a pity.” That is not to say she did not believe this young woman was capable. Doing so would be a hypocrisy large enough to crack the world in two. Her own father had taught her to shoot and handle firearms before she entered elementary school. “But it seems I am in good hands.” Occasionally, her Ss turn sharp, shifting into a Z. It is a remnant of Kalosian that even years abroad cannot erase.
[break][break]

Short locks tossed at the question. Though dressed for exercise, she was not in proper attire. Her cheeks flared a bright pink. “That would be…appreciated.” A look of irritation passes but it is not at Thea. She must have missed the requirement on site. “I am not here to break ze rules.” Only to break bones some part of her wished to joke.
[break][break]

The Wigglytuff eared a surprisingly soft, feminine smile. Only years of training kept the icy woman’s mask from snapping. “I can see that.” Though there was a moment where she looked almost constipated. The woman and her wolf shared a brief glance. Stones rattled as the wolf nodded.

[break][break]

“I believe Minerva and Heimdall would enjoy ze facilities.” A ball in her bag opened as a juvenile Lucario joined them.

"A caged Arcanine..." Thea muttered it to herself, shooting a grin. "That's a nice one, I will keep that in mind!" Sounded cool at least. "Here is the place to let out the steam, for sure... But with discipline!" Thea nodded eagerly, gesturing for the woman to follow her.[break][break]

Approaching the locker room of the dojo, she glanced at the Pokémons that were going to join their training too, smiling warmly. Meanwhile, Gominha approached as well, rolling closer to the other Pokémons and looking at them with curiosity. "They look wonderful~ And you are sure in good hands, I do plan to take care of this dojo at some point, so I am training for it too." She flexed her arm, and opened the door of the locker room to the guest.[break][break]

"There is a locker with a 'guest gi' sign, just open it and choose the one that fits you the most. I will be waiting outside so we can start as soon as you are ready."[break][break]

The blonde’s lips quirk upward. “I will take zat as a compliment.” Lydia begins. “It iz not often I am a muse.” Her sister had gotten the looks in the family. Her brother the most brains. She, meanwhile, inherited the title of black sheep and tenacity. Neither of these things truly inspired people. Not unless they were writing some claptrap novel about war and piece.
[break][break]

“Zat is why I came here, non?” The blonde glances back toward the door. At Thea’s other words, a sigh pushes between pink lips.“I am told I do everything with discipline.” These words are spoken in a strange tone, as if in imitation. It is something her sister has said to her a hundred times. What she’d actually meant was that Lydia was boring--too stiff and unyielding. And, in some ways, the veteran now knows her sister to be right. Since losing her path, she has struggled to chart a new one.

[break][break]

The two Pokemon offer their newest companion stiff nods. Heimdall’s nod is accompanied by a slight smile. Minerva, meanwhile, approaches the Wigglytuff with her head lowered. She sniffs at the pink blob. But the scent of fey magic made her jerk her head back. Lydia was slightly amused by this. “I am glad to hear it.” The Kalosian murmurs as her feet touch tile floors. “I enjoy a challenge.”
[break][break]

With a sign of understanding, Lydia moved into the changing room. Like the girl in the Three Little Ursaring she sampled what was before her. The first one was far too big with sleeves hanging from her arms like a strait jacket. The next one was a bit more snug but still hilariously oversized. With a sigh, the blonde moved to the smallest one available outside of those for toddlers. It iz sad how often they forget we can be smal.
[break][break]

Peeling off her clothes, Lydia tucked herself into the gi. As she reached her shoulders, the progress slowed to a crawl. She bit her lip as a familiar pain flared. She ignored it as she tugged it the rest of the way up. The belt was quickly tied. With a brief glance in the mirror, Lydia nodded. A stray strand of hair disappeared behind the door. “Zank you for letting me borrow it.”
[break][break]

The fact that it was labeled for youth gnawed at the back of her mind.

When Lydia came out of the locker room, Thea crossed her arms and looked at her up and down, with a grin covering her lips as she nodded in eager approval. "Great, that looks wonderful on you! All fit and set, certainly not the first time you wear a gi!" Sometimes she had to adjust other newcomers obis, or the gi was wore all wrong, but it seemed like she wasn't talking to an amateur.[break][break]

Her eyes went up to Lydia's, and she inquired: "Well, what are you looking for? Just sparring, or training? Seems like you already know your way into a dojo." She said, already leading the woman to the center of the dojo.[break][break]

It felt like she was mildly disappointed earlier for not meeting the actual master of the dojo, so maybe she wanted to challenge it formally? Regardless of the case, Thea intended to treat her with as much respect and hospitality as possible.[break][break]
