Tatsumi Ichizuma
Tatsumi shrugged as he hung his head momentarily before an idea came to him. "Have you ever tried meditation? It might help with your concentration and make it easier to sense the natural magnetic field while keeping your awareness of the surroundings so you don't bump into everything," he said thoughtfully. He wondered if she could learn ki manipulation as well.

~*{ Alexis Addler }*~ ~{ * }~ Alexis frowned "Never tried meditation before..." she replyed. "Guess I should try before people start thinking I'm blind." She chuckled. ~{ * }~

Tatsumi Ichizuma
Tatsumi cocked his head. "Try visualizing a flame in your mind and feeding everything into it: worries, fears, troubled thoughts, anger... until there is a bubble of 'emptiness' within your mind, a Void of calm. You'll know when you succeed, since it'll feel slightly disorienting at first, but you will feel as if you are 'as one with your surroundings', as my sensei put it. When the technique's mastered, you can do it in the space of time for a single heartbeat. With practice, you'll find within the Void, that your senses and reflexes are enhanced in some ways and the technique should help you sense the natural magnetic fields," he said with a faint smile. He knew midway through the explanation, when he'd first mentioned the Void, his voice had gained an emotionless and cool edge to it since he himself was using the Void at that very moment.

Tatsumi Ichizuma
Tatsumi shifted fractionally. "In a way; the Void allows you to sense incoming threats, but does tend to distance pain and emotion rather than dulling them. You're still aware of your emotions, but it's almost as if you're observing them from a distance and knowing they're there, but not really noticing it enough to shatter the Void. The downside of it in a fight, however, is usually when you do release the Void, any pain you sensed will hit all at once; I speak from experience in that," he said quietly.

~*{ Alexis Addler }*~ ~{ * }~ Alexis wasn't too shure if there were more positives or negitives to that void idea. "I'm easily distracted so... its probably gonna take me forever to figure it out..."~{ * }~

Tatsumi Ichizuma
Tatsumi smiled faintly. "For everyone, they usually have some form of meditation that they never even notice; some listen to MP3 players and 'block' distraction out, while others can use a technique known as 'battle meditation'... in essence, they allow their minds to empty while their bodies train or fight. I know of a few people that do that. I personally find the 'Flame and Void' technique the easiest, but you may find a form of meditation unique to you that may work just as well," he said with a slight shrug. OOC - I know of capoeira users that use the music to empty their minds while their bodies react, usually moving both in time to the music and with speed and fluidity.

Tatsumi nodded slightly. "Hai," he said as he fluidly shifted, clearing the nearest fencepost to Ken's convertible without even seeming to notice. OOC -

Tatsumi Ichizuma
Tatsumi turned to face her, then shrugged. "Perhaps, I don't know, I've never had too many pets," he said with a sigh as he pushed off in a backwards somersault, landing in a handstand on the top of the passenger door, making the blond guy in the red gi and black shirt jump in surprise. "Damn, man... warn a guy next time," he said dryly, rolling his blue eyes as Tatsumi twisted, landing in the backseat as if he'd simply hopped over the side of the car into the seat. "Show off," Chun-Li said teasingly. She could tell that hadn't been the unusual 'powers' he'd claimed to have earlier, but simple skill. OOC -

Tatsumi Ichizuma
Tatsumi shrugged one shoulder. "Whatever works for you," he said idly as he glanced at Alexis, noticing a flicker of red and black behind her. He frowned as he noticed a quartet of four roughly dressed guys, two blonds with rough headbands and two bald men, charging at Alexis' back. He recognized them as Mad Gear thugs. OOC -

~*{ Alexis Addler }*~ ~{ * }~ Alexis sighed abit. Now that he talked about some void it made her wonder if he was there all the time. She noticed he seemed to be looking at something and looked back abit. Not really thinking she turned around and raised a hand. If they had metal on them it would be as if it hit a wall and stoped in that place. ~{ * }~
