Hiroki is actually a bit excited. When last they spoke, on the bank of the Sun River, the pair had opened up in regard to their love of ninjutsu and the wonder inducing magic that it represents. The genin wasn't as different as Chiho might have been, considering trying to kick the chunin's old demon, but he still has much to learn if he hopes to succeed and become a pillar of this village himself. 

His scent is caught from a few yards away, the genin having grown far more adept at hiding since they last met. It's more of a passive thing these days, but the scent of dew and varied seeds precedes the genin as he steps onto the training ground.

"Hunter Shochune-san." He bows deeply, as deeply as when they first met. "I hope you are well, and thank you for inviting me to be under your tutelage again. If at all possible, I would like to focus on Water Release and its foibles this day."

Ah, there he was, he could smell... Something different on him, it was a mixture of cooled earth, the kind you'd smell from a particularly tense firefight... But the rest of his scent was familiar. Chiho began to shift the bubble up and down , before it began to spin in place, causing the storm inside to appear almost like a raving light show as he let it linger in the air for the time being.

"Ah, there you are, you're... Geez, you're like twenty minutes early, you know you're allowed to be late right?" He was sure he'd told Hiroki he didn't have to show up so soon, but... Eh, punctuality isn't the *Worst* Trait a Shinobi could have he supposed. "You're getting better at hiding your presence by the way, but that's not why we're here." He looked over the field, before popping his massive bubble, a bolt of storm digging into the Earth as he crossed his arms.

"Water release... So, tell me, what do you know about water release? I think nine times out of ten I've seen you with a scroll, so academically... You might know more than me, but... Your own words, what do think of when you think of water release?"
Gabriel
"Water Release is the closest to unnatured chakra, in my opinion. It is a flow of energy that, while capable of vast destruction, is gentle naturally." Hiroki doesn't look directly at the bubble, afraid it might genuinely cause some form of instability if he were to look at all the flashing colors. "It is also the most chakra dense in many cases, as it requires increased chakra to manifest the element rather than manipulate existing matter."

He takes a breath.

"And, with all due respect Hunter Shochune-san, to be late when invited by your personage would reflect a dire lack of respect on my part. Your abilities as a ninjutsu user and medical-nin deserve such respect twiceover." Bit of a kiss ass, isn't he?
Dorothy
"Bah bah, don't sweat the formality stuff, ya know? Like, I totes get it if you were visiting someone that had a high care for tradition but... Like, look at me man, you can totes draw the conclusion that me and tradition don't exactly get along... Though, your explanation is... Honestly kinda on the line of what I thought. Water is... Peaceful... But it can fill a *Wide* Space, and among all natures, it has the most variation, or, like, ability to draw variation."

Chiho held up a hand, holding up a finger as he explained. "The starchy sticky nature of the Starch Syrup line of jutsu, made by a shinobi who's name is generally lost, but his jutsu are remembered, Applications of mist jutsu, keeping water at the point before it becomes a dense liquid... Flammable oil like substances... Heh... I even made a similar offshoot of water release that mimics high proof ethanol, in the sense that it's not only flammable... But capable of poisoning those without the constitution to defend themselves, and of course, the previously shown Bubble Style, a form of water release that sacrifices speed but grants you a near endless amount of ability to trick and disorient the foe."

He closed his eyes, letting out a small huff of air. "What I mean to say Hiroki... Is take whatever constraints you might imagine with water, and throw them away when experimenting with jutsu... Heh, my Sake Style totally breaks convention, I'd be willing to teach it to you if you're interested... But, the first step to *Really* Utilizing water?" He held out a hand grandly... "Overcoming the weakness that is that totally lame chakra tax." He deadpanned the explanation, before holding up a finger. "That is to say... If you think you have the gumption and skill, I'm totally willing to help you push your skill with water past the precipice, my guy."
Gabriel
There's a blink. Then two. Chiho was offering to teach him a unique transformation for Water Release? It's *Very* Tempting, as their skillsets are quite similar on the surface. One might imagine the somewhat robotic Hiroki processing the offer for a long moment before. . . 

"In the future, I may take you up on that offer. I have been utilizing poison more intimately in my style of combat for a few weeks now. If I was able to add it more easily into my Water Release techniques. . . It would be quite useful for making opponents less deadly. Perhaps also useful for nonlethal methods as well. . ." If there's one thing that Hiroki also shares with the Shochune, it was his wish not to hurt others if he can manage it.

"That being said, the way I speak is a tic of comfort for myself. I may make adjustments - and when I become a chunin I shall endeavor to relax things. Please endure it if you can, Hunter Shochune-san." He dips his head apologetically, still listening to the rest of the lesson regardless.
Dorothy
It wasn't as though he was harboring his techniques like others would. The Shochune clan had no Hiden, in fact, Sake style was maybe the only thing you could consider... If he wasn't the only one who used it. He shrugged his shoulders. "Suit yourself, offers totally always open, if you happen to figure out something where it might help, I'm here... Now, as for helping you overcome your limits? I have an exercise for that..."

"I wish I could tell you it's something complicated or formulaic... But it's more internalized than that, your sensory stuff is totes gonna be useful for it, actually, now... What we do is..." He carefully weaved through a set of handseals, allowing Hiroki ample time to copy and memorize them... Before turning his head away from the Genin and releasing a truly ludicrous wave of water, one that tore and flattened the earth, a literal tidal wave from his mouth.

"... Ha... Is we practice *This*, until you either run outta chakra... Or perform it right... Exploding Water Colliding Wave is *The* Jutsu that signifies you've crossed the line of using water release, to *Understanding* Water release." He took a few moments to regain his breath. "Now... I want you to focus on your chakra *As* You're molding it... And I want you to *Complete* It... I know this sounds strange... But, you'll be able to see it... It'll be easier for you than it was for me, at least."
Gabriel
"Of course." Hiroki mimics the seals, paying close attention to the way the technique feels as Chiho releases it outward. It's complex, incredibly so for a B-rank technique - some might consider it on the borderline due to the sheer destructive power and volume created through a single technique. The difficulty came down to the necessary skill with water release, otherwise the sheer amount of water created would drain a user in moments.

The first try is. . . Alright. He fires off a burst of water forward in an arc, but it's nothing like the ludicrous wave that Chiho did.

"Mmn. I believe I am. . . Close. The technique puts the nature of water as a force into perspective. It's closeness to chakra almost seems to make trying to change it into something similar. . . More taxing. Curious."
Dorothy
"I figured you'd notice something like that... A lotta people see grand jutsu like this as simple or rudimentary... But you'd be surprised... Just like you need a fine understanding of chakra and your element for something precise... You need the same to create a result like this. It's not *Just* Expelling an obscene amount of water. You need to finely manipulate every ounce you create... Course, you *Also* Need to do this in an instant or else you're just spitting out a stream... Here, maybe this might help."

He straightens Hiroki up, while speaking. "That restraint you have, that calm care you take? Remove that for a bit... I know it might be like, especially hard for you, but you need to feel that wild unrestrained sensation of water release... It makes the difference from using Water and understanding it, trust me... I dunno... Think of something wild, what's wild for you? Staying up past curfew? Hanging a painting without a level? Ordering an extra piece of chashu pork on your ramen?"
Gabriel
There's a flash of something in the back of Hiroki's mind. It's nothing crazy, but also isn't quite so simple. A cool night in the town and the popping of a firework play through his mind's eye. Yeah, that was him without restraint. Focusing on a name, he weaves his hand seals again.

"I believe I know what I can use for that." Gathering the chakra in his belly, Hiroki quickly finishes the sequence before reeling back. At the moment before his cheeks bulge with water, Chiho can see the slightest smile on his face before a **Deluge** Of water roars forward down the same path that Chiho's had. It continues to flow for several moments before Hiroki is forced to cut it off by shutting his mouth with a *Pop*!

Breathing heavily, Hiroki reaches into his pocket to produce a chakra pill. Popping it into his mouth, he sighs with a bit of relief as that tension of low chakra leaves him. 

"Oh. . . Okay. I believe I understand now." Catching his breath might have made his tone shift just a bit, but only from physiological stress. "I do not think I can do it again at this moment, however."
