You're gone - Dagger Practice - and I'll never see you again

[RHINESTONE.]

Rhinestone hadn't really thought much of Ares, when she had initially arrived. The other seemed rather closed off and kept to herself, and Rhine wasn't really the type to pry – not when it wasn't her own family, anyways. All she really knew about the girl was that she had come from Tanglewood, and supposedly they wouldn't have to deal with any trouble from the other group. That was good enough for the canine, who occasionally observed Ares from a distance, mentally noting that she had brought a dagger along with her. The legate had understood the need for protection, but she had admittedly been a bit uneasy upon seeing it, wondering what someone so young needed with such a weapon.

Now, it seemed as though Ares was actually making use of it, something that only unnerved Rhinestone further. She wasn't technically even an apprentice yet, and now she was lashing out at a dummy? Not only that, but it seemed as though she was... talking to herself? Worry rapidly growing by the minute, the tasmanian tiger made her way over, clearing her throat before she questioned, "Ares...? Are you alright?" She looked between Ares and the dummy, taking in the way that straw fell slowly from its mouth. That certainly did seem... vicious. Sighing, she looked back towards Ares, tail swinging slowly behind her, "It seemed like you were... talking to someone? But I don't... see anyone." Was she having some kind of mental problems? Maybe it would be a good idea to take her with, when she went to ask The Typhoon about medical training. She didn't really know if Roan specialized in mental health at all, but most medics at least knew a little.
