Warnings: Vanitas is his own warning.

[Ever since his run-in with some Blood Keys, Suzaku's been on the mend. That's natural and of course, entirely normal. But it's also frustratingly, uselessly slow. Things are happening around him that he can't do anything about. Or rather, he can't do anything about them without popping his recently-acquired seams.

However, there's only so many things he can hold off from doing. Training is certainly not one of those things, and so he's investing his time making sure he doesn't become entirely useless by the time he's fully recovered.

Shame he can't go to the dojo like this, but his front yard will do]

Like I'd hold anything like this like that... Even I know the stance doesn't make any sense.

Just making sure. I don't know if you've had any formal training.

Obviously not. Do you really think my mom is going to have me practicing kendo?

No, but there're other things out there.

[Hope Van's willing to eat stir-fry because that's what's happening here]

[ stir-fry is fine. don't act like he hasn't had that before. in the meantime, he's still swinging it around. as if trying to judge the weight and how he'll manage it. ]

Do I really look like the type that has the patience for martial arts?

Do I?

[Is his immediate response to that]

Obviously, Suzy.

[ just look at you... then again it's hard for Van to see him without. ]

You should be capable.

[After all, by Van's account, his patience is tried on a regular basis when they're around each other]

It's only because you're my dear big brother and I love you so much that I endure for such reasons alone.

[Yeah that's a snort]

[ the sad part is... it's kind of true.

but Van's smile is now soft. looks like he got through to Suzaku after all. ]

[Suzaku's quiet for some time after that, until he's plonking a bowl of food down on the counter in front of Van. Chopsticks included, naturally]

Shouldn't be too heavy for training after.

[ the only reason that he still uses chopsticks. this guy... right here. ]

You're eating too, right?

[ because it'll be awkward otherwise. ]

Yeah, just setting your stuff down.

[Van gets some canned green tea too before Suzaku collects another bowl sitting beside the stove]

[ he snorts, running a hand through his hair. ]

Man, if I had known you'd do all of this shit, I would have started coming over on Saturdays sooner.

It's just lunch.

[Punctuated with a shrug]

And I'm supposed to still be pissed at you. See how long that lasted...

The bruise'll remind me.

[Does that help? Because he's gonna start eating his food]

Heh. About time I left my mark.

[ okay, okay. that means he can tuck into his food too. manners, man. ]

So you say.

[The comment comes between one mouthful of food and another. He's got some manners himself.

But only some]

[ yeah but Van doesn't, does he?

because he flicks some onion at Suzaku's face. ]

[That was incredibly easy to evade, lil' bro]

[ one day he will knock you on your fat butt. what then... ]

[His butt isn't fat what are you smoking]

[ oh right it's pretty much non existent. sorry. ]
