"I see... So it's a style that selectively discards instinct. A dance not scripted, but designed mid-performance. That's impressive, to say the least."
Thanks to Yousei's explanation, Mai could now understand that her previous assessment had been slightly off. She had unconsciously looked down on her technique and had placed all merit on the practitioner, branding her a genius whose instincts allowed her to feel the flow of the battle and defy common sense without much understanding on how her feats came to be. While the principles that her method pursued were definitely not for the average practitioner, it wasn't knowledge impossible to pass down, either. The red-haired girl was a genius, but of a different sort.

Came her answer, as she tried not to burst into laughter. Granted, with a few more bug-related puns in the way, the duo would eventually find it impossible to hold back. Ah, to be able to enjoy life so earnestly with a person, with a ninja from another village you'd just met... It was something hard to replicate in that day and age. Besides, Yousei was from the same age range as the Aburame, and they both shared the same military rank, so there was another connection there. She had a lot of acquaintances back in Amegakure, but not quite like this one.
