Maea
And I never know what to say
'Til I'm already walking away
Aside from offering sporadic encouragement and instruction to hit the pads more towards the center, for the most Maea let her young friend figure out the rhythm on her own. Once they settled into a good pace, it became a workout for herself as well; it wasn't a series of movements she did very often and even with plenty of stamina to pull from, her back and arms were soon feeling the strain.
"You're doing great," she told Noe approvingly. "It's quite the difference, isn't it. I'd say the only downside is that you gotta wear the same garment at all times... On the flip side though, you're always prepared for a fight." And there was plenty of room to complement the dress with other items; pauldrons, vambraces, perhaps a good pair of seven-mile-boots – the options were endless.
Blocking the increasingly heavy punches with the pads, she had them going for a few more rounds before calling a halt. By then her breath had become a bit rough, and a satisfying sheen of sweat spoke of enough effort being put in to let her sleep well that night.
"How are you feeling?" It was telling that the girl had done this before, or at least something similar. Not wishing to run her ragged though, the loreseeker let Noe set the pace and decide when enough was enough.
4/4

Wanna punch you in the face
But I won't, but I might, but I won't
