"Of course. What else would it be?"

*With a grin on her face, Ling quickly advances, launching quick slashes and thrusts with both blades. Why wasn't the canifor fighting back? It wasn't fun if it was just a one sided beatdown.*

"Come on! Entertain me a bit!"

*Juna found herself having to alternate between the positions she held her staff at, having to quickly block and deflect each attack that came towards her as she tried playing on the defensive.*"Not being attacked by some stranger while I'm trying to relax for one-"*She said in response. This is what she had to break meditation for? Someone who just found entertainment in attacking someone at random with very deadly weapons? Juna could feel herself being forced backwards with each block of the woman's weapons, soon forcing her to have to plant her feet before jabbing back with the blunted end of her staff to push the woman away from her.*

*The swordswoman quickly sidesteps, having to lean to one side in order to avoid the thrust of the staff.*

"There you go! It's not that hard!"

*The sudden counterattack by the canifor gets Ling's heartbeat racing. She loved it. The thrill of combat. The possibility of getting hurt and striking another. Not many could feel what she did; it took a special type of daring person to try it.*

*Ling places one blade on the staff, trying to push it away as she advanced.*
Faviola
*Was she fighting her or training her? The woman's words left Juna conflicted, making her think back to her own training session with a Silnari who saw no need to stop despite Juna not wanting to attack her back. The Canifor wasn't quite sure if it helped or not in the end considering the many outbursts that lead her to find peace in this place. It only seemed like this lady was trying to spite her. Locked in her thoughts, she wasn't ready for Ling to push her staff away, causing her to lose control of holding for a short while as she quickly had readjust her hold on it to back away from her advances.*"Yes it is."*She said in response.*"I don't like to fight."*Juna didn't know who this person was, but she knew she wanted little to do with her as she quickly tried to regain distance from her. She could flee right now. Nothing was anchoring her to this place outside of her being an easy target for the woman's weapon. It was times like this that she wished the trees here were easier to climb, though part of her doubted the woman would pursue her for long if she used the place to her advantage.*

*Ling indeed liked spiting people. Defying other's commands was one of her favorite things to do; she simply hated authority. One thing she felt about Juna though; she was holding back. Not fighting. That made her uneasy.*

"I know you're not going full strength. Fighting me's the only way I'll stop. And it's when one of us loses."

*Ling goes for yet another overhead strike, confident that the canifor would be able to block it. She wasn't aiming to kill; rather, simulate it.*
Faviola
*Juna raised her staff to meet the strike, eyeing the woman cautiously.*"Neither are you."*She said back.*"If you were, you would have killed me by now."*Juna wasn't sure what the woman expected her to be able to do with her weapon against her armor. Or rather how she would even know how much effort the Canifor was putting into it despite her stating she never wanted to fight in the first place.*"If you want one of us to lose, then fine. I'll just leave."*The Canifor said, completely fine to the idea of forfeit. She had nothing to prove here anyways.*
