[He's silent as he does it, slowly sliding his bare feet across the smooth surface of the Astral floor, his arms and the weight of his body following in slow, smooth, measured movements. He pauses a moment before the feet shift again, and then his arms move of their own accord, even while the body follows once more. It's hard to see his movements under the loose pants and tunic he's wearing, but the soft fabric flows like water over his limbs.

And then as fast as lightning and with a crack of thunder to match, he seems to jerk, and the flowing stance becomes rigid for a split second - aggressive, even. But only for that second, because in the blink of an eye, Mu has gone back to moving like water.

He likes Tai Chi very much.]

[Guess who is watching] Practicing?

[lamb_of_gold]

[Not breaking his stride] I suppose. Roshi lauds it as near perfect...I simply prefer it to meditation some days.

[Watches him] Is it useful at all?

[lamb_of_gold]

[The flow is turning him away, but he's still listening] Not particularly.

[ram-of-gold.livejournal.com]

Than what is the point of it?

[lamb_of_gold]

It is something to do.

[ram-of-gold.livejournal.com]

I suppose that is something. It looks relaxing at the very least.

[Standing at a distance because he doesn't want to disturb Mu, watching with an impressed look.]

[lamb_of_gold]

[Nods to Hei as his stance brings him around]

[contract_star]

[Nods back, but says nothing, still just watching.]

[lamb_of_gold]

Something has you entranced.

[contract_star]

Tai Chi, right? You're very good.

[lamb_of_gold]

Chen style, yes. Thank you.

[contract_star]

Is it for training, or more for meditation?

[ Ooo, now Mu's doing something interesting. Nanoha kneels to watch. ]

[lamb_of_gold]

[And the natural progress brings him to her] Hello, little one.

[starlightbreak.livejournal.com]

Hello, Mu-san. [ Head tilt. ] You practice Tai Chi?

[lamb_of_gold]

I do.

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

[In human form, watching with a pleasant look on her face.]

[lamb_of_gold]

Hello, Amaterasu.

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

Ah, do not let me disturb you. You seem very focused.

[lamb_of_gold]

Hardly. It comes naturally, now.

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

Indeed, I can see that. What is it called?

[lamb_of_gold]

Tai Chi. It is a Chinese martial art.

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

Chinese? Ah, I think I have heard it mentioned around here--China, right? How fascinating!
