Benio's training
So it was a nice relaxing Sunday at the house. Nothing to do and very quiet. Just like a Sunday should be. Dear Benio, however, thought otherwise.
As some of you are aware, if you follow my Nendoroid Stories, I placed a weapon ban in my room since Lucchini and Rock-Chan kept dueling each other and I had to keep plugging the holes in the wall. So since they all behaved themselves so well, I decided to lift the ban. And Benio wasted no time and started practicing her weapon skills.

Benio: It's a good, tranquil day today.
Naito: I guess you could say that. Though you seem to be a bit... bored?
Benio: I want to practice. But your weapon ban doesn't allow it.

Naito: It has been a long time since I put it in place.. Though you all behave rather well.
Benio: So that means you will lift it?
Naito: I will go get your armor and weapons from storage ^_^ Enjoy yourself.
Benio: Thank you, Naito-Sama
Naito: Enough with the Sama already >.< Makes my skin crawl. *shudder*

Naito: Here they are. Your armor and weapon, still in perfect mint condition.
Benio: I thank you.
Naito: No need to. Get yourself ready and I will go see if I can find the others hiding around in the room.

It's always nice to see Benio taking her Bushido so seriously. Her bowing to her armor reminds me of how we do it at the start of every training. Bow to a picture of the founder, bow to the Shihan and then we train till we die of exhaustion. <3

Benio: 1.. 2.. 3.. 1.. 2.. 3..
Naito: That's not weapon's practice.
Benio: Ooh! You startled me. I was trying to dance.
Naito: ooh.. okay.

Since I often practice my Karate stances in my room, Benio thought it would be fun of her to mimic my Gedan Barai stance from Karate. She's so amusing at times. hehe.

After she finally got her basic armor on, Benio decided to start it off with some Naginatajutsu. I stayed at the other side of the room for safety. Don't want to loose a limb when she swings her Naginata around.



Eventually she switched to her Katana and started practicing with her two-sword form while I watched with great pleasure.

Benio: How does it look?
Naito: Musashi would be proud.
Benio: You're to kind.

Benio: I think Rock-Chan needs you.
Naito: She'll probably want her Rock Cannon back.

And I was correct. Rock-Chan came to me to reclaim her treasured Rock-Cannon(or was it blaster?) from me.
Rock-Chan: Thanks for returning it. I promise not to engage in duels with Lucchini without permission.
Naito: Good girl *pat*

Lucchini has been in high spirits ever since she heard that her fellow Strike Witch, Lynette Bishop, got ordered by me and is awaiting shipping. And she seems to enjoy the new lay-out of the room since now she uses my glass shelf above my desk as her personal landing strip.

Naito: Lucchini! Get down here. I want to talk to you.
Lucchini: Coming, big man.
Naito: what's that supposed to mean..

Lucchini: So, what did you want to talk about, Naito?
Naito: The weapons ban is lifted, so I'm going to give you your weapon back. Follow me.
Lucchini: Wheeee~!!

Naito: Just don't go starting fights with Rock-Chan. Or engage in duels without my permission.
Lucchini: I promise.

Naito: Let's hope so. Last time you blew more holes in my wall than Rock-Chan.
Lucchini: Want some new ones?
Naito: Francesca Lucchini..
Lucchini: I'm just messing around with you. I promise to be a good girl

This is a screencap from when I was playing Shogun2 a few days ago. If I had known that this screencap would inspire Benio so much, then I wouldn't play it so much with her around. Because now she's trying to live up to the legendary Onna Bushi from the history books.

Naito: You fit in well, Benio.
Benio: Onna Bushi at your service.
Naito: Less Shogun for you, Miss.
Benio: Ahhw...












(Forgot to rely)
Awesome! Love how you posed her. Nice training routines. My Benio does the same, even in very strange ways, one of which was near halloween lol. And her controlling her own army? Ya, she is one to fear :P
