*gapes at Hiarth*

*nods and moves hands around on the pommel... then switches them around... then decides against it and switches them again*

 

True cross? *mumbles* bloody buttered onions...

 

*holds sword at the correct position; determined, focused on Cor*

Footwork! Horse stance! Center of gravity in your (lovely) hips! Never cross your feet, you'll end up on your tuckus.

 

And maintain your body on the ball of your feet, not the heels! And shuffle! Your leading foot moves and the other follows. This is a half step. Only move like a normal gait in a pass if and only if you have a good reason to close distance. Distance is commitment!

*blushes*

Horse stance? ... *mumbles* ashes...

 

Wouldn't my dominant hand then hold the blade?

 

*moves awkwardly, trying not to cross feet* hoooowww is this effective?

No, it would not mean your hand grips the blade, though there are scenarios for such things. You grip beneath the quillons so that your thumb can press upright against the flat of the blade in the ricasso. This is anatomical in nature - your erect thumb creates a ninety degree angle in your wrist against the blade. This gives you a stronger grip.

 

By shuffling, you approach cautiously. If you were to advance in a passing step, you would be advancing uncautiously, or perhaps boldly.

Oh! And,

 

*Swiftly turns toward Hiarth and bows elegantly* It is nice to meet you, Sir.

 

*turns back and goes into the Plow stance, with a sharp eye on Cor*

Besie is going to be a great addition to the Tower... *nods*

 

A great addition indeed...

 

 

 

Chae? Where have you been hiding Cor? I've barely seen him! He seems all taken with you!
