- Kana: [eyes closed, smile] GO MAMA!
- Hana: [smile] Morning, Kana!
- Hana: Heehee, you’re up early today!
- Kana: I wanted to come see you train, Mama! You always look so pretty when you’re doing your katas.
- Hana: [smile, closed eyes] Aww, you’re so sweet. Are there any you liked especially?
- Kana: Yeah, yeah! Do the double-handed strike ones again!
- Hana: Sure thing!
- Hana: [determined] One! Two! Three! Four!
- Kana: [determined] One! Two! Three! F- WHOA!
- [crash SFX]
- Hana: [surprised] Careful there, Kana!
- Kana: [sweat, smile] I keep messing that one up…
- Hana: [smile] Well, if you want lessons, you can always just ask!
- Kana: [surprised] Really? I wouldn’t be bothering you or wasting your time?
- Hana: Of course not! You could never ever waste my time, Kana!
- Hana: Besides, teaching someone else is one of the best ways to practice!
- Kana: [surprised] You’ve taught other people, Mama?
- Hana: Heehee, just a bit! Lady Sakura, Subaki and I sometimes train each other in our respective specialties, so none of us are ever off-guard.
- Hana: [frown] (Mostly I think Subaki likes showing off.)
- Hana: [smile] Alright! First lesson: stretching!
- Kana: [sad] Aww, can’t we start with the cool flips?
- Hana: Nope! You gotta learn to walk before you can run!
- Kana: But I can already run…
- Hana: [smile, closed eyes] If you’re good and you do all your stretches right, I’ll show you a couple of sword moves. Deal?
- Kana: [smile, closed eyes] Deal!
- B-support
- Kana: [eyes closed] Zzzzz…
- Hana: [smile] Wakey wakey! Time for training!
- Kana: [injured] …mrr? Mama?
- Hana: C’mon, out of bed and training clothes on!
- Kana: But it’s still dark out…
- Hana: It’s not going to be for much longer if you don’t hurry up and get dressed! C’mon!
- Kana: [injured] (…what did I agree to?)
- [scene transition]
- Hana: Aaaand time for a break!
- Kana: [injured] Phew… I’m usually the one tiring other people out…
- Kana: Is this what it’s like to be a grown-up?
- Hana: [smile] It’s okay, Kana, you’ll build up stamina in no time!
- Kana: [neutral] I definitely built up an appetite…
- Kana: Hey, Mama, did your Mama teach you all this stuff?
- Hana: [smile, sweat] My mother’s more one for tea ceremonies than training yards.
- Hana: I could never get her to so much as look at a katana.
- Hana: It used to bug me when I was your age, but I kinda get it now.
- Kana: [confused] Why’d it bug you?
- Hana: [sweat, frown] Well… there are some people who say women shouldn’t be samurai.
- Kana: [surprised] What?! That doesn’t make any sense!
- Kana: [worried] Wait, your Mama didn’t think that, did she?
- Hana: [eyes closed, smile] No. Although there were times when I thought she might’ve.
- Hana: I always wished she’d practice with me, but she never did. She didn’t even want to watch.
- Hana: Luckily I had Lady Sakura there to patch me up!
- Kana: [surprised] Even back then? You and Aunt Sakura have been friends for a long time!
- Hana: Yep! She’s the most important person to me in the whole world after you and Avatar.
- Kana: Do you think I’ll have a friend who loves me as much as you and Aunt Sakura love each other?
- Hana: [smile, closed eyes] I’m sure of it!
- Kana: Yay!
- A-support
- Hana: One! Two! Three! Four!
- Kana: Five! Six! Seven! Eight!
- Hana: Nine! Ten!
- Kana: KYAAH!
- Kana: [smile, closed eyes] Phew! I did it!
- Hana: That was perfect, Kana! You’re coming along so fast!
- Kana: [smile, closed eyes] Only ‘cause you’re here to teach me, Mama!
- Kana: [neutral] …Hey, is it okay if we take a break, Mama? There’s something I wanted to ask you.
- Hana: Of course. C’mon, let’s go get some water while we talk.
- Kana: [smile, closed eyes] Right! Gotta stay hydrated!
- Kana: [worried] So, um… why didn’t your Mama watch you practice?
- Hana: [surprised] Oh, did I forget to tell you the real reason? Whoops!
- Hana: [sad] It was because of my Father.
- Hana: He was a great samurai who guarded Lady Sakura’s father, King Sumeragi.
- Kana: [surprised] That’s my Grandfather!
- Hana: [smile, closed eyes] Sure is!
- Hana: [sad] Or… was.
- Hana: Father died, alongside King Sumeragi. He did his duty as an honourable samurai to the last.
- Hana: When I wanted to follow in his footsteps, Mother forbade me at first. She only let me start training after she saw how important it was to me.
- Hana: I used to think she was like all the others, thinking I wasn’t fit to be a samurai just because I’m a woman.
- Hana: But I get it now.
- Hana: I’m so proud when I see you in battle, Kana, but it’s also scary. It’s the same fear when I see Avatar or Lady Sakura in the field, but a thousand times worse.
- Hana: And Mother had already lost Father, so…
- Kana: [sad] She didn’t want to lose you too.
- Kana: [determined] Don’t you worry, Mama! No-one’s gonna get lost! Not while I’m protecting everyone!
- Hana: [smile] Heehee, I know. And Avatar and I are here to protect you!
- Kana: [smile, closed eyes] Yeah!
- Kana: I can’t wait to meet your Mama, after the war’s over.
- Hana: [smile] Well, you can’t meet her, but how about we write to her together? I’ve already told her all about you.
- Kana: [surprised] Really?
- Hana: [smile, closed eyes] Yep! Explaining the whole Deeprealms thing took some doing, but she’s really excited to meet you.
- Kana: [smile] Yay! Let’s write to her, c’mon!
- Hana: Hold it, you! No getting out of cooling down exercises that easily!
- Kana: [pout] Yes ma’am…
