Dressed in different clothing today than the day previous; a pair of black slacks and a dark brown shirt that gave her hair a honeyed look. She left her hair down but the tie was on her wrist knowing she might need it soon.
Valeska waited patiently. More than patiently really as she had been meditating for over an our now. She opened her eyes with a gentle sigh and smiled. Today she would get to see Talmic again. She figured he would most likely show up confessing once more how this relationship thing was forbidden at one time for a reason and she would relent fight back and he would accept. It was a never ending cycle they had started yesterday and she had come back for more.
It was here amid the tall grass the sun once again beaming down on her from above accenting the red highlights in her hair that she waited for Talmic. Sparring and talking were the subjects of the day she only had to wait for Talmic to arrive.

Talmic slowly checked over the four training sabers he had managed to get, all were in perfect order. He had managed such a feat thanks to the fact that he told them in truth, that his two current ones were unusable. They had inquired further, and there was more questioning followed by some nodding. Now he carried them under his normal cloak, two of them were in his normal holsters, the other two sat nicely in his pockets as he walked.
She will probably be there by now, waiting. With any luck we can get right to the sparring and avoid any odd conversations. In all reality she should probably give up on me, even after meditating for three hours last night i' still pretty stuck. Compassion, it's going to be hard to get used to.
Talmic sighed as he walked into the clearing from yesterday and was met with the back of the woman from yesterday, Val. Approaching without a sound he carefully lay a hand on her shoulder before speaking.
"Been waiting long?"
He said as he brought his hand back and slipped it under his robes, the material folding with the new intrusion into their space.He wondered exactly how long she had been waiting now, hopefully not long. He wouldn't want to be a burden to a fellow Jedi, much less one who expressed such an interest in him. He would try to keep his arguments under check today, avoiding the prospect of conflict and eventual argument again. Yesterday it had taken him close to an hour just to sort all of those feelings out, my my how weak he truly was.

Val felt the hand on her shoulder and she smiled. But it was all too quickly taken away and she looked up at her friend and interest Talmic. His white hair styled as it was yesterday but today he was hiding underneath his cloak and she had a feeling she knew why.
He had not liked touching her too much yesterday. He seemed to go from touching to not touching at all and truly it sent mixed messages to the girl. She had thought about it long and hard last night. She knew she was interested. No matter how deep or which way she looked at it she was attracted to the boy that stood behind her.
"Only a bit. Don't worry." she said with a smile and stood up gracefully. She stretched and it was now obvious that she had in truth been sitting some time.
"How are you today Talmic?" she asked turning to look at him with a smile her hazel eyes bright and shinning this morning.

"Good, relaxed, more in focus than I was yesterday."
He let his hands glide over the practice sabers at his side, both of them were in perfect condition and both were ready to go, now all they needed to do was start, which Talmic planned to do right away. Lifting his right hand he brushed the cloak back over his right shoulder and it revealed two additional sabers on the inside. He pulled them out and handed them to Val, his hands on the the ends so she could get a firm hold on them and not drop them, which would likely result in nothing but safety was key here.
"How about you?"
He waited for her to take the saber and then he would get his own out, testing their weight and flipping them end over end a couple of times to ensure they were in good balance. He wanted to get moving along quickly, to ensure that he could get as much training in as possible. Although he may not seem the type he was actually rather interested in Valeska as she was him, just not as into it as she was. He didn't openly display it as she did and deep down he still felt a bit uneasy. He wouldn't let i show today, today would be good and relaxed, and a day they could enjoy.

Valeska took the two sabers and smiled at him genuinely. She flipped the practice blades around in her hands and nodded. The balance was very good. She was pleased he had picked really good ones. This was going to be a fun day. One she could easily enjoy with Talmic and it seemed that there was something different about him. The air of complete on edgeness had disipated somewhat. She liked it.
"I'm doing well thank you Talmic." she said with another smile. "I take it you wanted to spar first. That's fine with me."
She took a few steps back swinging the practice blades in her hands to get a feel for them before she turned and took a pose.
"Bring it on Talmic." she grinned.

"Heh."
Was all he said as he crouched down a bit and took on his normal stance, leaning forward he flipped both sabers so they were running against his arm, the cortosis weave arm guards would protect from the heat of the practice blades, and Talmic hit both activator plates at once. Two blue blades hummed to life against his arm and he prepared for his first move.
His right foot leading he took a step forward, then his left, then another right, and finally he reached her on his fourth step. His right arm led in a slash, his arm coming out wide before coming back in to aim at her left side hip. A simple start, but one that could quickly turn into a deadly one. His left arm stayed close to his body, the blade going from right shoulder to left hip, left hand resting against right shoulder. The move was simple, come at the target in a quick slash while protecting your more vital zone with a diagonal blade. Al in all it was Talmic's defense that would aid his greatly later. From here he could flick the blade up for a parry, move it down for a block, or swing again for a dual sided attack.
"I'm going not to go easy on you just cause you're my girlfriend!"

Girlfriend? Girlfriend!! She really wanted to drop her blades and run after him hugging him tightly but she'd be killed. Plus she knew it was possibly a ploy to get her to drop her guard which was not going to happen. She had already activated her blades and dodged his attacks with ease.
"Watch it buddy or I'll kiss you for a surprise attack." she said with a grin.
She moved quickly and spun around behind him using her acrobatic skills to keep her and her blades moving around him. She swung up twirling her blade in her hands as she made for one of his arms right at the left shoulder. Then using her other blade ready to parry his next move she swiped with a spin at his right knee.

A kiss? What kind of an attack was that? It might unsettle him for a second but at the same time he was going to be wary of that now, cause knowing this girl it could very well happen. However the task at hand was to nimbly avoid a pair of attacks coming his way, a slash for his left shoulder and a swing at his right knee. A very effective technique if you were going to fight someone with only one blade, but since Talmic had two she would be getting a wake up call soon.
Quickly his entire left arm moved down and away, taking her slash away from his body and arcing her swing far to her right. The blades only made contact long enough for him to do so and then his left hand nimbly flipped the blade off. He spun the now extinguished hilt and now the emitter pointed forwards, becoming a part of his arm. He re-activated the blade and he was inside her right arm, just under the armpit he made a quick thrust to the right. The whole attack would end in her getting a nasty sting on her right side , just below the arm pit.
There was still her leg sweep to deal with though, and the momentum on his first attack was stopped. His right hand nimbly flipped the activated saber over and the sound of crackling split the air as Talmic's blade and Val's locked just inches from his right knee. Of course she would have the advantage right now, since Talmic was at an odd angle she could easily push in on his right and push both blades into his knee, IF he didn't use one of his force powers.
He pumped the energy of the Force into his arms and bolstered his strength, allowing him to hold her at bay wile his left hand pulled away from her chest, the attack finishing as the right hand had moved.
Talmic quickly kicked back wards and stood, right hand saber running against his arm, left hand saber held forward, the whole attack executed perfectly. A single bead of sweat dropped from his brow and he smirked, happy with his little victory over the girl.

It was several hours later that Val turned her practice blades up and held her hands up in surrender. She was breathing heavily from the definate good work out and she had she had fun as well. She smiled at Tal and nodded.
"I surrender to your capable hands, Talmic." she said softly with a smile.
She sat down in the long grass and she placed the two practice sabers next to her genly so that she could give them back to him when he wanted them. Using her force powers she brought a basket hidden behind some trees out to her.
"I hope you'll stay longer. I prepared a meal for us to share." she said softly looking up at him with a hopeful smile. She patted the grass next to her.
