Danny just kept throwing the dagger, over and over. Repetitive motions were becoming her life- nothing seemed real anymore.

Danny just couldn't put her heart into this. She felt miserable. She wanted to go back to the bench and keep drawing designs in it. The actual effort of damaging the dummy lacked luster. It wasn't fun hitting things any more.
She should've never come here. Danny had left Rikki sleeping back at the hammocks, and she was determined to go and curl up with him, willing the bad thoughts away.
Her feet couldn't carry her fast enough.

Weapons Crafting
Danny was back in the weapons crafting room, for the last time. She wanted to go back to the release of the mindless dagger making, but she also wanted to say thank you to the head craftslady. Although they didn't really talk much, Danny had an appreciation for what the woman did after so many days, and was thankful for the strange sort of support the horsewoman provided.
She gave a solemn nod and then got down to work, but her heart wasn't in it. She wanted to go into the deep trance of meticulous details, but just couldn't do it.
The reason being that she kept thinking of Roch. She hadn't seen him since the cave and ... part of her wondered if everything that happened was real.
No, she couldn't afford to think like that. Danny pulled her supplies and got to work, not putting much effort into it. It was the last day, and Danny just didn't care.

Danny stood up and faced her mannequin solemnly, her heart not in it at all. While the other students seemed to be fiercely putting their all in, Danny just couldn't do it. She idly scraped the side of the mannequin while her mind went elsewhere.

Danny sighed, and the head craftswoman took notice. She tutted Danny and said, "Why do you look away when you face your foe? This is not befitting of a warrior." Her words were harsh, but there was underlying concern.
Danny shook her head and said, "What? Oh ... uh ... I can't focus I guess." She slumped once more.
"One does not need eyes to see that," the horsewoman responded. "A true warrior does not let emotions tangle with the art of battle." With that mysterious phrase, she walked off, tutting another student for incorrect form.
The fire demonness centered herself for a moment and stared at the dummy. Alright, she could do this.

Danny centered herself- and not just the basic calming she'd done in days before. Now she really thought about the way she was moving, the way the dummy was standing. It was a real meditation, probably the only one she'd experienced in her life.
Her arm lashed out and cut the dummy across the neck in one swift move. Did she just do that?

Yeah! Yeah she was jacking getting it. Danny's arm moved like a hummingbird, leaving quick scratches across the dummy everywhere in a strange sort of dagger dance.
She grunted slightly as she hit the mannequin once more with her shell dagger, and gave a whoop. This was awesome!

Danny was slashing left and right like a storm. With a final scream, she drove the blade straight into the dummy's skull. The blade cracked down the center and fell to pieces in seconds, leaving only a small sliver of the dagger still remaining in the dummy.
By this time Danny was panting and she looked over at the craftswoman. There was a rekindled glowing in her eyes, and Danny nodded. The woman nodded back to her, and Danny knew that was all that needed to be said.
(Though as she was running out the door, she did shout a, "Thank you!")

Just as Nyyrikki was heading up to the crafting platform to play with making more daggers, he caught Danny coming down. He hadn't seen her much today, but he knew she had other things she wanted to do, and he really just wanted to get lost in a little weapons crafting, so he kissed her forehead, told her he'd see her later, and watched he dash off before heading up and waltzing to the supplies.
He'd made a couple stone daggers now, and his last one had lasted quite a while, but it had become a little obvious that they weren't going to since they were expected to test them. So he figured he'd experiment with the other material he'd been interested at first. He picked up a bit of bone and rolled it in his fingers, inspecting the shape and texture. He was sure where the bone came from, nor was he entirely sure he wanted to know. All he knew, is that it would be a lot different from the stone to use.
It took longer than the stone to craft and mold. Mostly because it felt more fragile, and he was afraid of breaking it and getting in trouble for wasting materials or something. He also just wanted to do it right, without ******** up because he wasn't paying attention to what he was doing. Like every time before, he couldn't manage to make it perfect, but he worked until he was pleased with himself. He wasn't as concerned with decorations, especially because Danny wasn't here, so he didn't even bother with leather.

His first throw was light and uncertain. Bone just.... he felt like the moment it made contact it would break. It barely stuck, and he was surprised it didn't fall to the ground and shatter. When he pulled it out of the dummy, however, he was surprised to find that it was perfectly fine. It looked a bit strong, actually. He hummed and hawed over it for a bit and then returned to where he threw from to try again.

More confident in his little bone dagger now, he threw it harder this time. He'd hoped it would stick and hold up. Unfortunately, it stuck - it dug in deep, in fact - but it made a jack awful noise when it did so. He ground his teeth and expected it to fall to pieces, but somehow it stayed together, even as he pulled it gently back out of the mannequin's face.

He'd meant to be gentle with his next throw. He'd meant it to be a smooth, soft move that kept the dagger in tact so he could explore the mechanics of a bone dagger a bit more. It didn't work out that way though. It slipped out of his hand with far too much power, slamming home in the dummy and promptly shattering with a sickening crunch that was too much like a real broken bone. Suddenly he found that he didn't care much to see this one go.
