She had noticed how annoyed Elias was every time she cowered or panicked before other people. It was making her realize she needed to work on being a lot stronger. Which means...once she was physically stronger she could feel mentally stronger, right? Because there's nothing to fear if you're stronger than someone else.
Probably.
Out in the field, Rose was swinging her Dragon scale blade, trying to get a feel for it. Unfortunately she'd never used a weapon in her life so it was mostly trying to learn something on her own. She COULD have looked for someone to teach her...but she's much too nervous. So instead she just swings her blade awkwardly, her whole body spinning as she can't stop her own momentum.
"Haaauuuuu....!!"
It's sad to watch.
"Th-this is hard!!"

"Whoa there! You alright?"
He'd come out here to work out when he'd seen the tiny little girl swinging a blade like well. Like she wasn't good at swinging them! He wasn't much of a sword user himself, but that didn't mean he couldn't encourage her!

Oni wasnt too far off with her own blade and heard the exasperation of the girl who hadn't approached very long ago.
At the same time as one of the new people Caelen coming to her help, Oni stopped her own training. wondering if there was something she could do to help when he beat her to it. She stood Nd hadn't made herself known just yet. Force of habit.

She laughs sheepishly as Cael approached, nodding slowly.
"S-sorry. I'm pretty useless with swords..."
Which are the only weapons she's gotten so far so it's probably about time she figured out how to use them.

"Hey, you are not useless."
He'd fold his massive arms over his equally massive chest.
"No one is useless. Nobody starts good at something."

"I can concur!" she pipped up grunting swinging her massive blade. "I-I been out here practicing until my arms feel like they will fall off... Which lasted about twenty minutes at first. But now... She checked the time on her phone. "Been about forty-five... Huh, awesome." she was equally surprised at her progress but her arms hurt. Ache even.
Oni: Dependent Blade - Oni's heart is filled with uncertainty and fear. Depending heavily on others to make up for what she imagines she lacks turns the Blade of her Heart into a curved broad sword requiring two hands to use. Oni's blade gains +4 Atk and +4 Def for every ally around her to a maximum of +12 Atk, +12 Def.

She blushes as she looks between the two, then shakes her head.
"No...I just mean I've always been useless." she explains.
"B-but that sounds amazing! Good job!"

"Hey, you're not useless. Believe me."
Cael would say confidently!

Oni would stop and release her blade.
She would walk over to rose and sit. Her tail wrapped around her side and arms drapped over propped knees.
"Why would you think you are useless?" did someone make her believe this? Would she have lived a life style that didnt give her a chance to be practiced at anything? Oni wouldn't barrage her with questions to keep it simple.

"I don't..." she mumbles at what Cael says, then fiddles with her uneven hair at the question.
"I think so because I am...everyone's told me so..."
I mean everyone here was really nice, but they were obviously just trying not to hurt her feelings.

Oni was about to say something but hearing Cael froze her in her tracks. Her rose gold eyes went wide and her hands covered her mouth. She might have looked like she was afraid.
But she knows this look. A tremor in his eyes show not anger but pain. He was the big and hard shell with a soft center trope. Her favorite trope and she was trying not to burst like a fan-girl weirdo.

"Shhh. Shh. It's okay. You wanna know how you can tell you are not useless?"
He'd ask, taking a knee to be more on her level.
"Because you are out here busting your behind trying to better yourself. Most people don't have that kind of inner strength, to see something they want to change and work to improve it. It's hard, and people like you with the willpower to buckle down and do it inspire me."

She took a deep breath and uncurled her toes from the inside of her shoes. The situation hopefully could remain calm and she needed to do the same.
"Well he is right though." she would stand and clear her throat trying to calm her rapidly beating heart. "I read in a book, this character was a lot like you. His whole life living under ground that when he reached the surface with his friend he saw it was huge and felt very small and useless. His friend however saw boundless opportunity. This friend told him; don't believe in yourself then, believe in me. Because I believe in you so believe in the me that believes in you." Just like her Japanese Anime... What a day to be alive. She smiled blissfully.
