Hey, starchild, are you listening?
Interested in the idea, Seren kept weighing the sword in her hand. To get a feel for the balance, and become accustomed to the way it tugged on her wrist. He was probably right; she was more the type for quickness and surprise over brute strength - as proven by the sudden charge. Seren flashed an impish grin at her father, and offered a wink at his protest.
"Is that what you say on the battlefield too?" she asked sweetly, as she found her blade repelled. Focusing on maintaining her balance and keeping a good distance, she pursued and let the blade sink down in a leftward arc, only to sweep up in an attempted slash across his chest. The blunt edges would hardly do any damage even if a hit was landed, but her movements were tentative all the same. Not relishing the idea of even bruises... it felt too real with the sword in hand.
"Hmm, I see. Could you take on someone who is armed, when you are not?" Seren tried to hide how impressed she actually was about that little tidbit behind a casual smile, but the gleam in her eyes gave her away.
