[suddenly, a voice!]

Hello! I hope everyone's doing all right now that we're back here on the island.

Um. Sorry if this is a weird question, but ... if you're an experienced fighter, what sort of training do you do that helps you out the most? The sort of thing that maybe a beginner could pick up on easily?

[beginner isn't really the right word for Madoka. but with her usual abilities out of reach, floating along with wherever the high frequency is, and with only a bow that's older than she is to use as a weapon, she's not that many steps ahead of one. does that make her a novice? first class? junior hero?]

It couldn't hurt to have that information out there, anyway. For the people who didn't do any fighting back home.

— Oh! If we haven't met before, I'm Madoka Kaname. If you ever need healing or first aid, please come see me, okay? I'm usually at the beach or the base camp.

[boy, welcome to Madoka's world. on the island, she's only as good as the bow she's carrying — and it isn't a very good bow.]

Mmm, well ... Would you rather defend yourself from a distance, or up close?

[decipheringeye]

Thinking about it logically, from a distance is better, right? Fighting hand to hand is way more dangerous.

[soulcomet]

I think so! I use a bow, actually ... I only have one, but I'd be happy to show you how to use it, if you'd like?

[decipheringeye]

That sounds great! Even without any experience, I could probably learn to use something like a bow, right?

[ HOW HARD COULD IT BE ]

[soulcomet]

I think so! It took me a lot of practice before I could trust my aim, but the basics weren't that hard to learn at all.

Whenever you're ready, I'd be happy to meet up with you.

[decipheringeye]

Maybe tomorrow. I'd like at least a couple days to relax between being in the world of flying monster invasions and learning how to fight.

[soulcomet]

That works for me. Please take care of yourself, Motoori-san. You've earned this time off.
