Kaede: *she rolls over onto her stomach kicking her feet in the air* Well, do you have anything specific you want to work on? I'd like to get better at grappling, I can beat you but my martial arts are really all about striking. It's harder for me when someone actually has me locked up.

Satin: Well, I could certainly do with practicing my grappling too. Also kicks - you seem to have a big leg-up on me there.
Kaede: I'm certain I could teach you a thing or two about those myself. And there's other benefits to working on leg strength. *she teases* I think I can think of a few techniques that might help you, but the more complex stuff is a bit harder without getting into deeper martial arts stuff, and I'm not sure I'm qualified to be a teacher on all that. *she rubs the back of her neck* I'm not even "done" with it myself.

Satin: Out of curiosity, who taught you?
Kaede: A family friend, I was taken in by them after... what happened, her name is Rin, but I decided to try and head out on my own because things were getting a bit well... strained at home. I should probably apologize at some point. *She sounds anxious, and seems to feel a bit guilty as she talks* I think you'd like her. She's a Paclu who was a roomate with my mother and was good friends with both my parents. She learned the Dragon Style of martial arts growing up on earth, and continued training herself even to nowadays I'm assuming, she thought that martial arts was "good for the soul" and could help with a lot of things.

Satin: She sounds cool. What happened?
Kaede: Well, we had a bit of a fight. I was getting into a lot more fights because it was around the anniversary of what happened, and I didn't want to stay cooped up. Part of me wish there was something I could do to "get back" at those responsible, part of me was just hoping to drown out the pain with whatever I could. I wound up leaving because I didn't want to be lectured about how I felt, its difficult to talk with her about how I felt... its just... easier speaking with you. *She kisses Satin's cheek* because I love you. Of course I love her like family but I feel like I can be more open with you cause you'll understand me.

Kaede: *she rolls her eyes playfully, starting to get into a crouch herself* That's true, I did mention something like that.

I don't think we did have Serah and Daya talk about it, no. Karen pretty much went ballistic on Daya when she found out, which is what prompted Daya to tell Susan, but I don't believe Daya and Serah have spoken about it.
*Daya shakes her head.
Dalos Alpha Prime. Satin smirks mischievously before pouncing on Kaede and trying to wrestle her to the ground.*
Susan: Lilly was a clone of one of the Tara's. Not your Mom, but the other Tara's. Lilly, was an assassin I think one who tried to hurt people, before something happened and she was lost and hurt, and our Mom's helped her find her way again, so she was able to turn her life around. I don't know all the details, Serah has told me a bit about it, I think Lilly feels ashamed of all that. But it was never the other Tara's fault that a clone was made of her and did bad stuff. *she rubs the back of her neck, hoping that the somewhat similar situation helps Daya in some way* She couldn't control what someone else did with her DNA.
