Ashley looked at him stunned a moment after he had managed to crawl out from under her larger then most arm. She laid on her back looking back at him then quickly sat up holding one of her arms up hiding part of her body behind it.. She turned her head and looked at Antoine when he spoke then Jeremy. She looked at both of them once more and got up to her knees. "I'm all right." She finally said and looked up at the beam above her. "I would of been fine if the beams in this place where checked more often." She pointed upwards to the beam. "That beam was wet and starting to rot so i couldn't get a good grip on it." She said feeling more then just a bit embarrassed. Finally after a moment she looked at Jeremy. "I'm....sorry for landing on you like that." She said standing up brushing her membrane like arms off then offered him a hand up.

( Lookout below! XD Hope Jeremy likes how fuzzy soft her winged arms are. ) From above Ashley kept her eye on him watching him go from running to simple push ups. She looked over at Antoine then back down at him. "Lest hes dedicated." She said to her and stood up on the beam she was sitting on and walked over and around a few cross supports hanging dangerously out as she made her way around them then move to a better spot to watch him. She looked around spotting another beam nearby and quickly looked down at him then back to the beam seeing that it was directly above him then suddenly made a jump for it. But as she easily made the jump to grad onto the beam her hands touched a slick wet spot causing her to lose her grip on the beam and fall backwards. "Dam!" She blurted out as she fell throwing her arms out using her winged arms to greatly slow her decent. She knew that it wasn't going to be a smooth landing given her angle she was falling but as she fell she inadvertently landed on the canine she had been spying on. Thankfully her winged arms slowed her decent enough that she landed on him with the force of no more then someone forcefully pushing someone down but it was still enough to make her gasp for air as she landed. She laid there a moment looking up at the beam she fell from. She didn't know it at the time but one of her parachutes was covering the canines head.

( All right then shall we close up hear? ) She nodded to his last comment about him using a hand in the training ground. She blushed a moment when he asked to see her works, her art. "Sure Jeremy. I'm sure with what i drew you can give me a few pointers on." She then stood up with her tail waving side to side on its own and walked towards him and stopped. She looked it over once more before handing it over to him to see. "I hope you like it Jeremy." She said to him and stepped back waiting.

(Hey Wb. ^^ After reading your post hear i was wondering if you'd like to wrap this one up and merge it with the training grounds topic. Sophia could walk in a bit later and join him. ) Sophia stopped drawing a moment and nodded. "Well i think mine is....done." She paused a moment to look it over quick and look to him. When he mentioned giving her pointers she nodded. "Sure i could use a few pointers on my drawing and my focus point." She sat there waiting a moment then asked. "After where done hear could you use some company at the training grounds? I could use the exercise and i don't have anything better to do after where done drawing." She said while keeping her picture hidden from his sight.

She listened to him talk about going to the training grounds with him and about his grandfather coming along. She wasn't to sure about that but still smiled none the less. And when he mentioned talking to her wife Shiba she shrugged. "Well i wouldn't say dumb or say that to anyone. Besides your to nice to say something like that to." She said closing her eyes smiling with her tail waving. When he asked her how drawing was going she looked down checking it over. "Not half bad. A few things i wished i did better but i think i got the center of my focus drawn good. Just a few more things hear....and....there." She said making marks on her drawing between pause's. "When do you plan on going to the training grounds next?" She asked him and used her thumb to blend a mark in on her drawing.

She nodded to him. "Getting our loved ones back is one of the best outcomes in this war we could wish for but for some of us who no longer have loved ones seeing the fat man gone for good is all we have." She said walked away but looked over her shoulders when he mentioned being careful. She nodded again and held out her arms showing off her fur covered membranes. "Falling is part of my life but having these soft furry things help." She said then walked off towards a large support beam. As she walked she kept her eye on the energetic canine jogging with interest. After a moment she made her way to the pole putting her hand on it and looked at the canine again before getting a firm grip on it and using her upper and lower body strength quickly clime up the pole. Once she reached the top she put one hand then the other on a cross beam gripping tightly then swung her leg onto it and then shifted her body up on top of the cross beam. she stood there a moment the ran along the beam till she made her way right over the canines running path and sat down to watch him. Climbing at the moment didn't really interest her as much as he did at the moment. She wasn't to high up but high enough that she could do a flying strike on the training bag if she wanted and looked that way a moment then back to watching him. "Is jogging the only thing hes good at?" She said to herself but she knew there had to be more to him beside being enthusiastic and a good jogger.

Ashley stood there watching him a moment. He sounded odd to her but she knew better then to make fun of how he spoke. She knew a little of his backgrounds. When he asked her about why she was there she replayed. "Anger" She said and walked around the training bag and looked back to him. "Sometimes it feels good to hit something and think about a training bag being the fat man himself." She said to him and suddenly kneed the bag then looked back to him. "But all so the basics." She said to him with not an angry look but of acknowledging him then she noticed someone else walking into the training grounds. She watched him moved over to spot with interest. He seemed like a cheerful sort and was interested in watching him. She looked back at Antoine. "Someday all of our hard work will pay off Antoine." She said to him and started stretching her arms with her parachutes stretching as well. "Think ill do some climbing next." She said to herself.

Sophia stopped and thought about it some. To her the thought of getting more psychically stronger appealed to her some but she all so thought about something else that made her blush a little. She thought about practicing with her mate Shiba working with her to get stronger but her mind all so started to wonder about more heated training with her and the thought about being so close to her. She looked away from Jeremy a moment then back to him when he mentioned if she mite be interested. "Well i mite....I mean i think Shiba would be pleased if i managed to put on a bit of muscle." She said and made a few more marks tracing a figure on the paper. She tapped the side of her cheek thinking. "Well that would be nice to have but i don't think it'll happen any time soon. Would be nice to go outside for a dip at night."

Sophia stopped a moment watching him as he talked to her nodding now and then on about his grandpa and how he wanted him to have a good amount of intelligence along with his psychical strength. It made sense to her and she thought about herself and how she could use some more psychical strength herself. She even held her arm up and flexed her muscles. "Well this proves it." She said patting her bicep. "Looks like i need to go indoors some more and put a little more muscle on my arms." She said with a shighful blush. "But your grandpa's right. Not all fights can be won by your strength and cute looks Jeremy." She said playfully to him wondering how he'd react to her mentioning his cute looks. After that she noted the time using her hand in a means of telling the time. "It is but it looks like we got at lest a good five hours of light left. Think i mite take a dip in the hot springs after this." She said and started drawing again.

Ashley kicked the the training bag a few more times before she heard someone greet her making her stop her next kick mid way and stop a moment to look at who it was. Once she noticed it was Antoine she gave him a cold solitary stare but nodded to him as she relaxed herself then walked over to her towel drying her forehead and took a moment to get some water. As she walked away to go get some she paused a moment to watch him take a few stabs at before moving on and picked up a bottle of water then walked back to her spot. She waited a moment watching him before throwing her arms out making her membrane parachutes poof out making a noticeable woof! sound followed with a sigh from her. After a moment waiting for him to pause she asked. "Hear to work on the basics?" She said using her hand to brush a strand of her hair back into place.

Ashley woke from her sleep with a start as memories of her past came back to haunt her dreams. Putting her hand on her chest she breathed heavily for a moment before turning slightly sitting on her bed with her arms around her knees. Her parachute like arms concealing most of her body like warm blanket around someone in front of a fireplace. Sitting there in her home with only the moonlight shinning through the window illuminating her home tears came to her eyes as she sat there looking up at the moon noticing it was only around 9pm. After awhile she dried her eyes and thought about her dream. She dreamed about her family and her fiance and what had happen after the war start. Softly she got up from her bed grabbing her cloths and walked out of her house slamming the door as she left drawing a few eyes her way as she made her way to the training grounds. She noticed she was being watched as she walked but didn't care. She was to angry with herself over her past and all she could think of was getting back at one person and taking out her anger on some of the training ground equipment. It didn't take her long to make her way to the doors and walked inside. She breathed out as she looked around for any sine that someone else was there. After a bit she walked into the training area looking around once more for anyone around as she walked towards a punching bag strung up and ready for use carrying a towel with her. She looked it over seeing it had been used extensively by the others and knew it should do nicely to blow off some steam. She tossed her towel aside taking another chance to look around to make sure she wasn't being watched then started her workout with a quick low punch making the bag jiggle on its chain the followed up with a few side kicks. "Haa! Hiii ya!" sounds sounded through the grounds as she continued her assault stopping her attack only long enough to weave and bob then strike the bag with a combination of punches and knee strikes. After that she started to smile as she struck the bag.

Sophia did her best to draw straightly given how long its been since she last drew something. She paused a moment to talk to him but all so confirm a few things about her drawing as they talked. "I see. Well mines not actually a drawing of a vegetable so to speak." She said and used her finger on some pencil marks to blend them into the background. She had some color pencils with her but she decided to keep it to a more traditional black and white drawing. She shifted her position to feel more comfortable but all so carefully looked up at him when he wasn't looking then made a few more marks. She could tell he was excited to be drawing with her from his last comment alone but he all so had a cheerfulness to him that she enjoyed and nodded to him. "You know Jeremy it feels good to get outside and get away from my lab for awhile. Iv been so caught up in making supply's for the missions that i guess i lost sight of taking some time for myself." She said looking at him then reached over and took a drink. "What about you?" She asked wondering how hes managing.

Smiling she picked up what supply's she needed and made her way outside with the feeling of the warm on on her fur smile even more. she walked around a corner with Jeremy following close behind her. When he asked her what she had in mind she turned her her looking at him with a smile. "Oh you'll see." she said to him and took up a spot for herself to work on her picture. She waited for him to take his own spot and set herself up to be facing him when he did. "And your right Jeremy." She said to him a bit after he said not to worry about the war and to think about there artwork instead. She looked at him a moment longer then normal and started sketching the background. She paused a moment to ask him the same question. "What about you Jeremy? What are you going to draw? Or is that a secret to? " She said waving her tail at him.

Aye as do i. I'll keep going long as there are members willing to RP.

(Naw its fine. Since we had Adam leave things hear have been in a bit of a slump. ) After hearing from Jeremy about what should could put her bomb making skills to use for that made her sit back a bit thinking about her and Shiba. "Or for a honeymoon." She said lost in thought and noticeably blushing to the thought. Due to the war she and her wife never had the chance to go out on a honeymoon. The thought kept her smiling but she soon shook her head slightly to brush the thought off and get back to what Jeremy said. "Umm yeah we can draw that Jeremy. I think i even have a few idea's in mind to." She said and started sketching out her house. She looked up to him a moment and apologized for being distracted a bit. "Sorry Jeremy i got a bit distracted by what you said. And when i think about it that is something i could do after the war. Fireworks are really pretty after all." She said to him and continued.
