But I suppose I didn't join for leniency." Albion sighed quietly, traveling the tech-riddled hallways of SOPHE's headquarters to make his way to the Training Center. It was good to come down here every once in a while, to make sure he never quite lost his form. The kind of fighting he did these days wasn't quite as visceral or aggressive as it used to be when he was fighting entirely for survival over purpose... Come to think of it, he'd lost his purpose long ago... But sometime after joining, he managed to find it again.<br/><br/>As soon as he entered the Training Center, it quickly became apparent, however, just what kind of training others were doing. While it was certainly a good idea to train one's eyes, he was pretty sure watching someone<em>else</em>train was not how you did it. "<strong>*AHEM*</strong>he cleared his throat audibly enough to catch the attention of the other two, and get them to realize they were caught gawking. It only took a few more moments before they returned to their personal training, while he sighed and pocketed a hand.<br/><br/>He could see Nerissa had been waiting for him, properly dressed for training and performing her stretches to ready her form. One could accuse her of being provocative about it, but her stretching certainly worked for her. "It's nice to see you get here early, Neri. Hopefully I didn't make you wait too long." The white haired male smiled, setting his bag down near her with a bit of a thud. Several bottles of water were inside, along with other pieces of training gear that would probably be used.<br/><br/>"Hopefully you'll forgive me for bringing you over here, but I just wanted to be sure you were trained well. I don't expect you ro have to get into too many physical altercations, but knowing how to fight along with your illusions should help keep you out of trouble." He hummed. It was easy for someone else to do the fighting for Neri  (usually it tended to be him if not someone else), but sooner or later there might be a time he wasn't around... He needed to make sure she could hold her own.<br/><br/>"Let me know when you're all done stretching... By the way." He folded his arms, looking her over. "Good choice. Form-fitting, yet loose enough to not restrict your movements. I do hope you're bound under there though."
