(02:42:17)*Josephine Castle took a deep breath in as she moved to meditate on the grass, taking the time to channel her hamon across her body..she had been feeling very weird for some time now, like something covered her body, protecting her in battle or giving her aid at least, could be that she's just THAT GOOD in battle..

But she couldn't shake the feeling at least..she stopped focusing on an invisible sensation or feeling, and focused on her breathing technique once again, she was still dead, she was aware of that, breathing as a dead person..it was hard, she could only feel the minimum amount of air enter her airways..the fact she was dead still was probably why she didn't suffocate..

But it weakened her ability to utilize hamon, in a way, as did being dead weaken her body, so she decided to use this time while dead to train her hamon, using as little breath as she could to still keep it channeled, so long as she can keep it channeled constantly less breath, can she bypass the weakness of hamon, or make it harder prevent her from utilizing the hamon technique.

The absolute requirement of the ability to breathe.

Rise and fall, up and down, her chest went as she took slow and limited breaths..she almost felt she'd be suffocating herself if it weren't for her current status being as it was right now..

(13:38:50)*Josephine Castle hummed as she listened to her Grams talk, or flaunt, about her powers, she was not entirely sure what to make of it, but she did hear something go on, she turned to look at her grams, taking away from the moment she had, meditating to try and hone her hamon breathing technique..

"Well, it's..faint..but you're getting there, i feel like i'm looking at an incomplete state..i can only wait for the moment when you are working on it more, to see where this goes, you are..a bit late in this kinda thing, i will admit"

She couldn't help but point out, yes she was as she said she was..but she also felt it was..not enough, she was constantly working on her own technique, so she just sighed..

"Work on it more, i look forward to where this takes you..i think i also saw Zaoden wield that or something, i'm not at all familiar with that kind of stuff i'll admit"

She off-handedly said as she turned to look away and focus on herself once more, breathing in with what little amount of breath she can take in, because being dead with a body really somewhat limited how much breath intake she took in, on top of that she was talking less air in on purpose.

She was trying to focus her hamon into smaller points of her body, keeping it maintaned, all with as little breath as possible, all of which were very difficult on their own, combined?, it was actually stressful surprisingly enough.

(17:56:20)*Josephine Castle huffed as she was just told about something going on in the living realm, she was not sure at all about what was going on, but she kept focusing on her hamon training, working on her technique some more, sucking in wind slowly and minisculely while maintaining her hamon channeling across her body..slowly bringing the hamon to the tips of her fingers.

She tried to channel it into one point, but that she found too difficult, so she may have been jumping the gun so she chose multiple small points, she was in a state of zen by how much she was focused on solely her breathing technique, maintaining said focus on her fingers..it was a demanding task, she planned to make a step-up from that at some point..but baby steps for now..

She had her mind empty of thought just to make that extra step forward, all she thought about, was her breathing, the timing, the amount of air taken in..and breathing out a specific yet equal amount of air, keeping some inside of her lungs..it was a rough task..but she heard people approach her, she heard voices but due to her hamon zen mode, she wasn't able to make out what words were said..

..So she took one deep breath..losing her channel of her hamon..moving to stand and spin herself around one leg, letting her cape flow behind her in a golden sparkle, showing off her hamon spark inside of it..

"Now, what's this talk about, Garns, repeat that, i was just commiting to some..hamon meditation technique i just made up on the spot..so what's going on?"

(17:04:14)*Josephine Castle huffed as she recalled yesterday, it was..a close one, she was lucky to even be alive right now, or unalive, well, her soul still being present, whatever, she got lucky still, an explosion could have happened and she was unaware of the power behind it, she would have perished.

No one but her, and she found out Void didn't die too, somehow, which was shit, but she at least caused a piece of metal to perish..

..But it wasn't a GMH or a human, so it was not classified as a kill so she couldn't go back her three years pass, maybe it was time to get back to focusing on her hamon once again, she knew she was making a breakthrough somewhere, she just must have mistaken it for her inate powers, rather than her actual training in hamon..

..Yeah that's it, surely.

"Grams, if you need me, i'll be nearby..just ask for water if you need to get drenched, won't do your clothes any favors"

She said off handedly as she distanced herself from the albino..channeling her hamon into the tips of her finger as she took her very limited breaths once again, purposefully breathing imperfectly to test how much air she needed to maintain her hamon right now in such small and precise points on her finger tips..

..IT was not pleasent, that's what, she almost choked on, moving to properly breath out to prevent herself from choking oxygen, her focus wavering a bit before returning to ordinary limited breaths.

Maybe she was pushing herself too much by trying to make calm yet purposeful improper breaths yet, she did feel she was not even scratching the surface to hamon..

Then there was that strange sensation she had whenever she was practicing her hamon, like some kind of..string or something, she could feel it or somewhat, a slight prick of the skin yet nothing happened at all.

It was strange..but it gave her a form of distraction she had to conciously empty her mind of to even focus on her breathing, maybe through her meditation, she may come to understand what she was feeling at rare yet random intervals..

(17:56:18)*Josephine Castle huffed as she took to focusing on herself once more..honing on her hamon craft once again, miniscule breaths..in..and release, in..and release, that's how it went, her hamon was waning but that was a given, she was trying to see if she could keep it active on low oxygen, incase she took a hit to the lungs or had to deal with an extreme circumstance that lead to her breath being severely reduced..

..She could always use the water as a method, or diving underwater, she did so before, but she felt she may not want to try and tempt fate with that like she did so many times before, she was not alive currently, with a body, but she can suffocate like any normal person..

So she refocused on her breaths..adjusting to take slightly deeper breaths, weak, but not as weak as before, she had to find a middle ground to work with until she can reduce her intake of air while focusing her hamon directly at the tips of her fingers..

..She then got an idea to put her scarf around her mouth to limit it, exentuating her lips, she moved to pull the scarf up to her mouth, using her tongue to push it up above her upper lip, successfully covering her mouth with her scarf, and returned to focus on her breathing technique once again..

While blocking out the chatter of others, they'd just distract her from her hamon training..and it was not easy to do that..in and out..back at it with this, at least it did reduce the air she took in a bit, which was what she needed.

She didn't need a big blockage, she can do that later when she's adjusted to this limited range of oxygen intake while maintaining her hamon energies focused on the tips of each of her fingers, thumbs included.
