[I wanna bendy time this to two days after the announcement, so it won't seem too random.]

She felt guilty that she had taken this long. They had met several weeks ago, and she had made a promise to get to training as soon as she could. Sadly, things came up that had forced her to take some time for herself: she was in a better place now, and it was time to get back to business. uh

When it came down to it, the marriage planet had been good for couples, but her interest was with what happened with the people who hadn't participated. Once again, there was an attack,and when it happened, despite them being strong, capable people, it regressed to arguments and pointless infighting, and this was a problem. Then of course there was the idea of how to compliment one fighting style and another. After thought, the best thing to do seemed to have all the guys come here, show what they could do, and start organizing training that way, get some input, trade different information, relay tactics. It would be unorganized for this meeting alone, but afterward they could start and tailor the training to their strengths, add in situations that played on their weaker points for good measure.

This would be a good way to get other people talking, really start to learn about how they fought and where they came from. The Sensorium would be blank for now: she figured Beastboy should be the one to add a little flair to their surroundings.

She did have to compose herself a little though: she hadn't been happy to hear Tavros was gone. He had been a nice person, and he was Alex's roommate.

She giggled, tying to make sure her hair still stayed in place after the ruffling. Luckily, the giggles kept her hair effectively in place.

"Same here, I think drinking the water helped. Billy caught me soon after though, and did lecture me a little. I think he was concerned I might be fleeing my problems with drinking. He knows better now of course, but I can't blame him for being concerned. Now, I have a question for you: I want to get this training session started, but the trouble will be making something these guys can really sink their teeth into. I mean, Beastboy and I will have something prepared, but any ideas to make things more interesting would be appreciated."

Specifically she wanted to make sure that people who were not about head to head fighting had their own obstacles to overcome.

"What about some initial prep exercise?" Nura reached up to move back a strand of hair to behind her ear. "We need to get so muscles nice and stretchy before the real work out can begin. Right?"

"That sounds like a good idea," Katara said. "I've talked with the Overlord, and he's got a simulation planned for us. I was thinking we might show each other what we can do, and I figure a run in the Sensoriums will get us acquainted with the way we deal with these kinds of situation. That thing outside the city opened my eyes with the way these end up."

And she wanted to avoid that at all costs.

"Right. Good idea." She sighed, reaching up to twirl a strand of white hair around her finger. "The problem is that, in the situations like that, our minds aren't properly focused, and you can't really say that you can prepare for anything...but we can prepare to keep ourselves in check."

"Yes, exactly," Katara said. "But every situation we've had requires you to be quick to think, even if the situation is impossible. It'd be good to see how quickly we respond to random situations. Next time we meet, we can talk about teamwork."

"If we're talking about how we respond to random situations, then we might have to work on reaction time. It's the fight or flight response that needs prepping. Trust me." She put a hand on Katara's shoulder.

"I'll attest to that," she said. Nura definitely knew more about things like this than she had, having lived though death and all. She figured she could trust her here.

"Then I'll make sure to concentrate on that," she said.
