( The sound of someone approaching does catch her attention, turning to face him with a little grin on her face. She's surprised that someone noticed her, given her position being tucked away from the fire, but she certainly isn't averse to a bit of company. The keyblade is let rest idly in her hand, hanging down toward the ground. )

Well, I'm not quite dancing, but it's close.

( Kairi can understand how what she was doing might look odd from the outside. A girl jumping around and swinging a flowery looking stick...It's really no wonder that he thought she was dancing. Also, she's pretty sure that normal people didn't have to worry about things like fighting. )

I was just doing a bit of training, though I don't know how much good it's doing. I'm Kairi, by the way.

Guess I should've figured that it wasn't dance practice.

[ He replies with a bit of a embarrassed grin as he makes a gesture to the sword. Though he does look at it a bit peculiarly. Who would forge a sword to look like an oversized key?

But, training, that definitely made more sense. At the introduction he steps forward to offer his hand to her. ]

Mine's Elden and uh, I'd be willing to spar with you if you want a battle partner. Though...I'm not really that great, so maybe I can learn a thing or two from you.

( Kairi can't help but laugh a little at that, glancing down to her keyblade as he motions to it. To be fair, it looks more like something used for decorative purposes than an actual weapon, what with the flowers all over the end of it. So she can't understand where the confusion might come in. Either way, she reaches out to take his hand and gives it a little shake. )

Elden, then. Well, if you want to spar, that would be fun. It's okay. I'm not really that good, either.

( She admits with a sheepish smile. After all, she's only recently even learned that she can use a keyblade, no less fight with it. )

My friends are way better than I am. But if you still want to, I'd be happy to spar with you.

[ He can't help but let out an embarrassed laugh of his own when she tells him that she wasn't "that good". From what he saw, she definitely was more capable than him with a sword...or any real melee weapon honestly.

He just holds up his mace with something of a sheepish grin. ]

Honestly, I'm terrible at combat. I mean, I'm a decent shot when it comes to range but swinging swords? You're gonna want my other friend for that.

[ However, he's probably selling himself short as well. So, he huffs his cheeks and tries to give a more confident grin; ]

But, hey! If we practice together we could probably get even better than your friends and mine.

[ Elden, she already agreed- ]

Anyways, so, how do we start?

[carriedbylight]

I just started practicing how to use the keyblade, so we're about on the same level.

( She says, offering him a sheepish smile. Though, she doesn't exactly remember how long she spend in the pocket space training with Axel. Still, she isn't one to turn down a partner. )

Well, my friends are pretty good. It would be great if we could catch up to them, though!

( She pauses for a moment, then lifts the keyblade up. )

I've been starting with swinging it through the air. You imagine that someone is in front of you and swing like you mean to hit them. It's just to get used to the weight of the weapon and maneuvering it.
