Icidro laughs at that motion, turning his head to look over his shoulder. With one quick hop, however, the knight clears some distance and 'resets' the board. When he lands, he swishes his sword out to his side; An unnecessary flourish, but a fun one!

"Sloppy? You still struck." Icidro says with a grin, "You've got the basics down, just keep in mind that practice makes perfect!"

"Now, we can move on!" Bringing his sword up to point toward Furo, Icidro flashes his teeth in excitement.

Dashing forward, Icidro leaps into the air, tucking into a somersault that spins over Furo's head, curving at an odd arch! When he lands on his feet just behind the other man, Icidro's sword jabs toward Furo's back not a moment after; An Air Reversal!

"The idea is the same!" He says cheerily, as he steps away from his friend, and returns to the center stage, "Just... Try it midair!"

Furo stepped forward as he made his own distance from Icidro. He turned and considered his approach. He personally preferred the air, but he was skeptical about this feat.

He would give it a try without magical aid. While he was hesitant, he would be wasting Icidro's time if he did not give it a try.

Furo measured out the distance and the timing in his head before charging ahead. He made his leap a little early, but it seemed to be a forgivable margin of error. He contorted his body as best he could despite lacking the same flexibility of his friend. Once he had cleared over Icidro, he landed in a kneeling position facing away before turning and poking the other man's back.

"Alright. How's that?"

"... You can use magic next time, if that suits your style better." Icidro says after a moment's pause, his expression pondering, "Sloppy, but you still struck. You're in a bad position were I to retaliate."

To emphasize, Icidro lightly bops the flat of his practice sword against the top of Furo's head. One-two. Grinning down at his friend as he hooks a hand on his hip, Icidro awaits any further retaliation that may come; Egging Furo on on purpose. Whatever attack, Icidro doesn't make to dodge right away.

The moment, the exact moment that Furo strikes, time seems to slow. Should he have timed this right, Icidro leans slightly to the side to allow the blade to harmlessly pass him by. And, why wouldn't he? He knew Furo's attack patterns better than anyone! ... Except maybe Brad.

With Furo still recovering, Icidro taps him on the shoulder with his sword, just the once.

"This is the final method. _Timing._ You don't _move faster,_ you don't rely on acrobatics. Simply judge the most opportune time to move, then _act on it."_ Icidro says with a bright smile, "To early, and I could react to it. Too late? You get it. You got the idea, amigo?"

"I sure hope so; I'm going to attack you now."
Ruby
A grimace crossed Furo's face as he rubbed at his shoulder. Icidro was right about the sticking to his fighting style. It just seemed better to learn the basic before adding his own flair. Then again, it more than likely was not going to be an exact one-to-one no matter how he learned it.

Turning to face the the knight, Furo steeled himself for the coming attack. Listening to the advice given, he felt the flow of the air rather than focus on Icidro's every move.

There was just something about it when the air twisted in a particular way that signaled trouble. And just right before Icidro made his move, he felt the tell he was looking for.

However, expecting it and reacting were two different things. He just barely moved away to avoid being clipped by the blade. He stumbled as proof of how uncalculated the movement had been, and fell to his side when he realized he could not keep his balance.

Icidro's wooden sword sweeps through the air in a cutting arc, the camera following the point as all else blurs from the motion. When it centers back on the two, Icidro smiles as he claps his hands, sword tucked under his arm.

"Very good! A moment too late, but you have the idea! To know my movements is half the battle; You have to know _your own_ as well!"

"Do you want to try again, amigo? We have... Some time, before our allotted time runs out!" Icidro cheers, before a thoughtful look openly crosses his face; Perhaps he should start double-booking timeslots when they come to the arena?
Ruby
Furo groaned at the idea of continuing, but begrudgingly picked up is weapon anyway. May as well get the most out of their time.

"Yeah, let's keep going."
