Ah... alright, I can do that. You'll have to stand on this side, though.
[A nod to the opposite side compared to where he'd been standing with her, since Sakyou's a lefty.]

Thank you!

Of course.
[AND LO he'll demonstrate nocking his arrow and pulling the bow back for her! He's not exactly a star archer, but he does get within the center circle even if not a direct bullseye, and his arrow wedges, like. Alarmingly far in.
HIS ARM STRENGTH.]
How was that?

Oh, wow!
[!!
he's not a star archer, but she's never seen anyone use bow like that before without being akumatized, so it's still pretty impressive.]
It's, like, right in there! You must be really strong!

[THIS BEANPOLE LAD WITH HIS ARM STRENGTH THAT MAKES NO PHYSIOLOGICAL SENSE.]
It's likely because the sword I normally wield is an oodachi. They're quite large.
[Specifically, he has Hotarumaru, which is only a foot shorter than his wholeass body.]

How large? It's kind of hard to imagine!

[closes my eyes about it
ANYWAY!! He'll hold his hand at around wherever the fuck 4'6" falls on himself.]
From here to the ground, or about there.
[Why does one lad need so much sword.]
The blade itself isn't very thick, though. About this wide, too.
[He'll gesture to illustrate! Oodachis.]

Oh, wow! That's amazing!
You must be really talented to use such a large sword.

[He just smiles, polite as ever!]
I've simply been training from a young age. When you begin so early, you have much more time to build your skillset.
[And muscles?!]

Oh, it's like they say. Practice makes perfect!
[a beat]
So, I'll have to practice a lot!

[Lila... Honestly he finds it a little endearing that she's apparently so into trying to figure this archery thing out.]
It's good to see that sort of enthusiasm. Even beyond archery, it'll serve you well in life.

Well, it's like they say, right? If anything is worth doing, it's worth doing right.
So of course I'm going to be enthusiastic!

It seems you have a good saying for just about any situation.
[There's a little twitch of an amused smile. Lila's book of Lila-isms...]
Would you like to give it another try, then?

I just read a lot!
[smiles!!
and then she nods. yes, she's going to try again. get in the stance, draw the bowstring back...
twang!
this time it hits. it's closer to the edge of the target than the center, but there's just enough force for it to stay in.]
Ah! I did it!

[Thumbs up for being well-read! Metaphoric thumbs-up anyway no one's taught him that skill yet.
He smiles when the arrow hits its target though, nodding once.]
Good work, well done. You'll be able to move on to moving targets before you know it.
[He says this with a teasing tone, though...]

[Oh no. WELL HE CAN'T DAMPEN HER ENTHUSIASM NOW.]
Once you're able to hit a still target quite regularly, I suppose we could try something a bit more difficult, yes.

If you wouldn't mind the company, I can come practice with you. I should keep my bow arm strong, too.

I'll look forward to working with you in the future, then.
