-Her gaze doesnt move away from the other until he had adjusted himself in the snow, now her gaze moved to her own legs where the snow was melting.. she took handfuls of snow to cover the spots where her skin was showing. As she was doing this, she continued on with her little lesson- First, just call me Tomare, theres no need to call me master. Now.. im asumming you know how to manipulste ki, so.. I want you to try to warm yourself with your ki.

It had been a joke, but he supposed it didn't matter. Tomare it was.
"Right. Sorry, Tomare," he said through the cold. And then she had spoken of manipulating ki to warm himself. Well, there was an idea. He'd never truly considered that before. Perhaps he'd been a little too closed minded in regards to what ki could actually do if you let it. For him, it had always just been a weapon, a tool to be used for self-defense. Never had it occurred to him to use it to warm himself on cool nights.
And so he did. He allowed the ki to flow through his body, like some kind of auxiliary blood in his veins. And slowly, the warmth spread within him. From his core first, but eventually it came to warm his entire body. Of course, there was some difficulty to this. It was an active thing he had to mind, but compared to flying, this was downright easy. It made sitting in the cold downright bearable.
"Hey, thanks for the tip," he said to her.

-She had been doing this herself for the entire time, the reason she had barely been shivering. She had basically mastered this technique but it wasnt prominent enough to have any other use than warming yourself while exposed to the cold. The tail of the Saiyan would pop up again, her tail was a bit longer than the average Saiyan tail, it had always been like this. She would ler out a small breathh before talking again- Now we sit until I feel like we have been here long enough. Another thing.. I dont believe you have told me your name..

His name? He hadn't told her that had he? He couldn't remember. His mind was elsewhere now.Even if he had, what was the harm in repeating it?
"That name's Raisu Hanamura. A pleasure meeting you," he said, his eyes closed and his mind focused. He was meeting a lot of new folks lately. Saiyans, humans, aliens... His life was a grab bag of encounters, at the moment. He honestly liked it that way. People fueled him.
As did training. Was he getting stronger by sitting there in the cold? At least he could say that he was learning a bit more about ki control. That was progress. Ki was the key to success. He chuckled slightly, laughing at his own mental joke. Hopefully she didn't think he was crazy. Though maybe she was a little crazy herself, given how she lived. Not that it mattered if she was. Raisu was the one sitting there beside her. What did that make him?
"You know, I wasn't expecting to meet someone like you up here on the mountains..." He said, trying to make conversation.

-Tomare would extend her hand to the other for a handshake, s greeting she had learned from the local population and other fighters she had met on her travels or ones that have stumbled upon her while traveling. She had used to travel alot herself but with the recent events happening she hasnt left in a long while. Depending on if he shakes it or not, her hand would rest beside her. A light chuckle would escape her lips at his comment about her- That is what most think, I am an odd Saiyan.. I would sgree if anyone said I was.. anyway, Raisu.. tell me a bit about yourself, tell me anything you wish to..

The Saiyan extended a hand, going for a handshake. Raisu reached across and shook the hand. Warm, he thought. She seemed nice enough, zen like almost. Odd for a Saiyan, as she said. Odd Saiyans were everywhere these days, he thought. Like Arlic. Now that Saiyan wasn't anything like he expected. She invited him to tell her about himself. Well, this might be awkward, thought Raisu. Where to start? He wasn't exactly good at this.
"Well," he began, "I'm sure you can tell, but I'm half-Saiyan. Got the tail from my father. Grew up in South Capitol. Now that place is a bit warmer than here."
Raisu laughed, thinking about the warm beaches and islands on the southern part of the world. He missed them sometimes. He'd have to go back. Not that that was hard these days, now that he could fly.
"But yeah, I'm a bit of a traveler. Just trying to see the world, you know? Maybe find myself, if that makes sense. That's what brought me up your mountain. Traveling."
Raisu finished and sat in silence, waiting for Tomare to respond. He'd have to ask her about herself once she had a chance to speak. He had to admit, he was curious about the Saiyaness.

-A warm smile would cross her lips after the handshake. A light breeze cools her back as he talks about himself. To be honest, she had just now noticed his tail.. he didnt look like an average Saiyan, she thought, she knew he had to have been half Saiyan or something.- Raisu, I only now noticed the tail.. -Her own tail sways with the light breeze- South Capitol is too warm for me, I can bear it but.. its not my style and I used to travel. But with all this fighting going on.. I dont want to get caught in the crossfire.

So, she really spent all her time on this mountain. She must really like the cold then, thought Raisu. And it was refreshing, in its own way. Raisu could probably get used to it, if he spent enough time up here. But she made a good point about traveling in the wake of an invasion. It was dangerous. Raisu knew this, but he did it anyway. He'd just been lucky.
"Right, I feel it," he said. He cast his eyes over Tomare. She was mysterious, really. Why was she up here? Was it really as simple as she just liked it up here? Or did she have another reason. Raisu didn't want to pry, though. He'd hate to be rude to someone who had shown him such hospitality. Hospitality was rare these days.
"So, now that you know about me, tell me about yourself. You got me curious," he said, keeping the talk going.

-She would nod lightly beforexshe begins talking about herself- Well, I guess I should tell you more about me. First of all, I am a full-blooded Saiyan from a planet a good distance away from Earth.. I came here when my space pod was damaged and the navigation system had failed.. I landed in a bamboo forest many miles from here and eventually made my home in my cave. Anyway im going to guess you are wondering why I am called the Mystic Tail? I have created a technique where I launch a ki wave from my tail. Maybe I can show you sometime..

A ki wave from her tail? Interesting. Raisu had never considered such a technique before. For a moment, he considered the applications of such a technique. It might be useful is one found themselves restrained, or if one was taken by surprise or from behind. Any technique could be useful in the right scenario, and one such as a ki wave might be useful in any scenario. He should know. He often relief on the most basic of ki techniques.
"That sounds cool. Yeah, I'd love to see it sometime," he said. Tomare seemed to have quite the interesting story. Crash landing in the Bamboo Forest? Where had he heard the before? Then he remembered: Polar, the Arcosian. The two of them had met after his escape pod had landed in the forest. Together, he and the wounded Arcosian had fought up an incursion of soldiers. Fun times. Raisu briefly wondered what had happened to the alien. Hopefully he'd survived the invasion. Being an Arcosian couldn't have earned him any favor from the Saiyan invaders.
"That's quite the story," said Raisu, "More exciting than mine, at least."
He laughed at this, happy to be talking with her. Anything to keep his mind of the cold, really.

-She would nod at him after his first statement, signalling that she will remember to show him.- Your story is just of one who has lived a quiet life.. its pretty interesting. -Tomare would then stretch her arm into the air before sighing lighty as her stomach is heard growling. She was getting hungry, but she knew Raisu had not been in the snow for as long as he should. She would want to wait a few more minutes before leaving to her home in a cave- We are going to be here for a little longer Raisu, then we will head to my place..

Raisu nodded. He could stand it a bit longer. He was a tough guy, or so he liked to think. He'd put beaten halfway to death by androids, demons, and everything in between, but he'd always survived or come out on top. A little snow and cold was nothing. Even if it bothered him a bit, he could get through it. His ki was burning away, keeping him strong. Perhaps he wasn't doing it efficiently, but he had power to burn.
"Sounds good. Your mountain, your rules," he said. What was he going to say? No? Hardly. He was quite enjoying his time so far, even if it was a bit chilly. Tomare made for decent company.

-Her arms rested back into their positions bzside her. She has enjoyed the others company, and would be happy to share some of her food with him. After another 5-6 minutes of sitting in the snow, her stomach growls once again, it now being lou3er than before. She would look to the other before shifting a bit in the snow- Lets go Raisu. -The Saiyaness would slowly rise to her feet, her entire naked body being hit by the cool breeze.- Just follow me, okay? Its not too far.

Did he hear a stomach growling? Not that it mattered, as Tomare rose, the snow falling from her body. Raisu looked up, blushing again. Was the time to train over? She said to follow her, and that her home wasn't far. Raisu rose, bending over to grab his clothes. Didn't want to leave those behind. They were the only ones he had.
He followed behind her, watching her as she walked. He was still surprised how little the cold seemed to bother her. Must be something she was used too.
"You lead, I follow," he said. Not like he had much of choice. Well, there was always a choice. He could simply fly away at any moment. But that would be rude. And besides, he was curious now.

-She would begin walking as he got his clothes. Her tail would slowly wrap around her waist as she would look back to see if he was following, and he was. Her gaze would turn back to the space in front of her before she pointed ahead to a cave, one with a fire going inside.- Thats my home Raisu. Doesnt seem like much but it looks better on the inside. -She would continue walking until she was at the entrance. She would let him walk inside first.-
