*Retasu is still reeling. She hasn't been talking much since she saw everything. You can find her in the temple, heavily guarded just in case, sulking in her Felt dress and hugging herself.*

...um, hello.

(This is an open RL! Anyone who wants to come yell at Retasu or just talk to her is welcome. Threadhopping very encouraged.)

[The Inquestor nods thoughtfully.]

It might help if you do as he says. He's been hit with worse today, trust me.

[aquaticrush]

Y-you want me to hit you, Kefka-san?

[sandinmyboots]

Yes! I want you to hit me as hard as you can!

[Pause.]

With your fist. Not your magic, I don't know how much you know and it might wreck the walls, but your fist. Face, stomach, wherever!

[He spreads his arms, leaving himself open.]

[aquaticrush]

W-well, okay... *wimpy punch ;;*

[sandinmyboots]

[It stings, mostly, and Kefka rocks back for a moment from it before grinning.]

...It's a start!

[aquaticrush]

I'm sorry.

[sandinmyboots]

No, no, it's alright! Here, let me show you how to improve.

[gonna show her how to punch things]

[seals love punching things]

[aquaticrush]

*but she's a fish........*

Y-you really don't need to, Kefka-san!

[masked_god]

Might I suggest that you move to an area with less breakables?

[aquaticrush]

But I'm not allowed to leave.

[sandinmyboots]

We can do it in here! It's not like I'm teaching her how to grab people and toss them onto the floor or how to kick them in the nose!

[masked_god]

...right. But please, don't break any walls.

[aquaticrush]

I won't!

[sandinmyboots]

I won't! Let's learn how to throw punches!

[aquaticrush]

*noooooooo*

[sandinmyboots]

You're a very capable young woman, one that will be even more capable with some battle training!

[hmm...she doesn't seem very excited....change of plans!]

What if we focus on defensive moves instead?

[aquaticrush]

I already know how to fight, Kefka-san!

[sandinmyboots]

With what?

[aquaticrush]

Castanets...

[sandinmyboots]

What, do you amplify the sound so that the enemy's eardrums pop?

[aquaticrush]

...They shoot water.

[sandinmyboots]

...alright, that is a thing. Do you use the water to stun with high velocities?

[aquaticrush]

Um, s-sort of?

[sandinmyboots]

What can it do?

[aquaticrush]

Maybe it would be better if I showed you?

*Retasu has a green glow and an aura of bubbles appear around her again, but this time it only lasts for a split second. When it fades, her glasses are gone, her braids are replaced by a ponytail in a tube, she's got antennae that look like ribbons growing out of her head, the green marking on her chest is exposed, and she's wearing something that can only be described as a battle dress/swimsuit thing with a showgirl skirt and garters. Frankly, she looks ridiculous, although at least it's a cute sort of ridiculous.*
