Nyl looked at the water for a long moment, before walking lightly across it.
"Hm. It is just water. Knowing Comboz, he'd have devised a way for you to fail consistently, but apparently he didn't."

"I don't think the water really has much to do with it." Another dip. "But I do know that to walk vertically and to walk on water require a method of chakra molding differently than that used to perform jutsu such as the Bushin." Another. "All he wants me to do is name them. The rest is just mediary between point A and point B." He looked down and noticed he only ankle deep. "And this is progress." Another dip. "Temporary as it may be."

"I don't know why he even asked you that question. I've been here for a very long time, and I don't even know the names of the two ways--of course, I think there are more than two ways--of using chakra."

"That's what I've noticed. I thought I was missing out on something, but it seems no one has a name for the various ways of molding chakra." Another dip. "If I were to choose a name, I'd call what I'm trying to do now Internal molding. It deals more with focus thatn actual chakra consumption." Another. "But performing a jutsu...I wouldn't call that external..."

One of Nyl's hands moved faster than any eye could have caught, and a small stream of water rose from his hole and started spiralling and twisting in th air.
"This is not external?"

"Perhaps I should rephrase. No jutsu I'm yet skilled to perform." Another dip. "But is that truly molding chakra I wonder. Even if I find two ways to use my chakra, that doesn't really mean I've molded it. So I could still be wrong I suppose."

"Maybe you should try a more creative answer than just any random two ways." The water dropped back into the hole.

"What if you tried telling him that using chakra was different for each individual?"

"I suppose I could." Glancing down, he notices he's standing idle over the water's surface. "Well would you look at that." He tries to step forward, but falls in. "Well that again would be progress I suppose."

"Oh, now I've done it. My distraction has made you improve." She laughed quietly. "Comboz will be so very...thrilled." The sarcasm in this was almost solid.

"I'm sure he will," Keno responds as though she were serious, his own form of sarcasm. "Well to any event, he has to show up again doesn't he?" He tries again, standing idly before falling in again. "So are you a medical specialist or do you just dabble in Ijutsu?"

"I am Ijutsu sensei." She thought this was explanation enough, but after a moment she realized others might not. "As far as I know, I'm the best user of Ijutsu here. And Neko was right--some don't have the flair for it, and so they can't learn it. It's a bit different from other jutsus."

"It certainly seems to be that way. Do you compensate for your medical finesse with what you know in....Tamashii was it? Or did you just happen to have a knack for both?" Still not progressing beyond standing, his body seemed to be moving rather mechanically.

"Healing's a natural gift of mine. Everything else I've had to work for, including complete control of Tamashii and reverse Ijutsu."
