Maebe had crawled on top of one of the dummies, hung against it, and waited there to see if anyone would even notice. She'd been there for an hour. And possibly fallen asleep.

Chance showed up approximately an hour and fifteen minutes after Maebe had dragged herself there, though admittedly he hadn't known she would be there. Hands tucked into the pockets of his jeans, he ambled onto the field, humming absently; and it was only when he thought that one of the dummies looked slightly off that Chance realized it was because someone was currently leaning on it. And that someone was -
"Maebe?" Chance asked, eyebrows raising in mild amusement. He padded towards her.
"What are you doing?"

Not only had Chance noticed her immediately (strike one) but he'd also caught her dozing (strike two) and her plan was a complete and utter failure in every way possible. She lifted her head sleepily to look at him, and then dropped her head back down on the dummy again in defeat. "Spending time with my new boyfriend." She mumbled grumpily. "Of course."

He slowed his steps when he was closer, Chance peering around the dummy to look at Maebe's grumpy expression.
"Not the talkative type, is he?" he asked lightly, with a glance at the dummy. Chance's eyes narrowed a little as he surveyed her, trying to determine whether this was a stay completely away situation, or if she was just tired from a lack of sleep and life.
He went for the latter.
"Seems kind of an odd place to take a nap," said Chance, eyebrows raised.

Maebe hadn't actually done much sleeping in the past few days. She'd only slept two out of the four days that had passed since she'd found out about America, and she did not do well on 40 hour days. When she slumped down off the dummy, she looked worn down, with dark circles under her eyes and her normal demeanor just a little more ragged than usual. "Yes, well, me and him, you know. We don't do a lot of napping. We're super into each other." She leaned forward and pushed Chance gently on the shoulder. "Want a spar? I could probably manage to take you."

This did not seem like the Maebe he was used to; the dark circles beneath her eyes stood out starkly against her skin, and Chance's gaze flicked over her ragged appearance, tilting his head a little to the side. She seemed...well, off somehow, but...
"Sure," he said mildly, slipping back a step as she pushed him, only out of habit. "I don't mind sparring with you. Trying to blow off steam?"
Chance held out a hand and the bow appeared a second later, cold air rippling up and down his arm.

"Something like that." She chuckled out, summoning Thaw in her hands after she saw the bow materialize. "Just trying to keep my mind occupied. Hopefully you'll put up a good fight and handle that for me." She gave him a sly, sneaky smile, and then backed up into defensive position. "Come and give me a go."

He didn't draw any arrows yet, instead holding the bow with bow hands like a sword almost, the blades on the front glinting. Chance shifted his feet into position and then lunged forward, swinging the weapon in a wide arc towards her, aiming for Maebe's torso.
"Anything I can help with?" he asked mildly.

She hadn't expected him to swing the bow at her, so the attack took it's toll, knocking her stumbling back in order to regain her composure and deal with the pain of such a strong hit. She breathed in through her nose, until the feeling ebbed away, and she could focus. She came at him, quick as a whip, and dug her trident straight forward into his shield. "You're already doing that." She pointed out. "This is the help I needed. Distraction." Quote: HP: 40 Damage: 6 Charge: 1/3

Maebe's trident smacked into him, and Chance staggered, breath momentarily knocked out of him. He slid his feet, hastily readjusting his position, and used the edge of the bow to knock her weapon away from him, Chance swinging around.
"Distractions it is, then," he said grandly, and thrust the edge of the bow at her side.

Chance made for a good distraction, but it could only do so much to delay the constant gnawing of anxiety and paranoia that had begun to rise in her lately. When she hit him again, bearing down on him from the side and twisting her trident down into his shield, her face grimaced with determination. She was pushing too hard to get stronger, to be better. She needed to have a fighting chance. When her feet touched the ground again, reason returned to her and she pulled the trident away. Even she knew she was taking this too far. "Sorry." She muttered under her breath quietly. Quote: HP: 34 Damage: 12 Charge: 2/3

Even with Maebe's lackluster demeanor at present, Chance hadn't quite expected she'd hit him so hard. Chance felt his feet sliding on the ground as he struggled to hold onto his weapon, heels digging into the grass to keep from falling over. When she finally pulled away, he breathed a slight sigh of relief, flipping his bow around.
"Don't be sorry, I'm all right," said Chance lightly, sweeping the weapon out to catch one of her legs.
He didn't ask her if she was all right, or if she wanted to talk about it; she clearly wasn't, and if she wanted to, she would.

She headed in for another hit directly after taking his, using the moment in the hopes that it would leave him open - but instead, she ended up barely grazing him, and stumbling right past him as her trident could not find purchase. It was awkward, and clumsy, and when she finally stopped and got her bearings back, she just stood there for a moment, glaring down at the ground. That was pathetic.

The tip of her trident caught him in a glancing blow across his side; Chance readjusted his hold on his bow and was in mid-swing when he noticed Maebe's stiff posture, her angry expression. His swing went wide, and he wound up just stumbling ungracefully past her.
Chance flicked a few curls out of his eyes.
"Do you...want to talk about anything?" he asked her carefully, keeping his tone light.
