Apparently the best way to get some time to himself was to proclaim that he was either going to take a shower (which would threaten to actually make the zomboil in his room clean) or to do something else that the zomboil would not enjoy so much that he would not accompany him. Running was one such thing. After the first day Yin had went back to training, but mostly what he could do in his room. Tai chi, sit-ups, push-ups. All of those sorts of things. Then slowly the boils had began leaving his room, first to go to Miss Taryn's, then to go take classes by themselves, then to spar.
And the spar was the reason that Yin needed to get away. He was happy in some ways. He enjoyed being bonded to someone strong, someone who could take care of himself. The spar had for the most part been fun, though he still saw that flash of something else that had risen in the zomboil's eye and wondered what it meant exactly. If he had come close to losing control.
His feet were pounding down the path, and he absolutely loved being outside of his room. Literally stretching his legs. Doing something to try to burn off some of the pent up energy. But not quite running away from that niggling problem. That insecurity that had been building. All of his talk about knowing what he was doing. All of his years and years and years and years of nothing but training, nigh on dawn til dusk, and what did he have to show for it? One fight that he had won since he had come to the school. Several draws. Several loses. Sure, he had taken time and energy to heal his opponent yesterday when he could have been attacking, but what did that actually say about him? If Alexander had been wounded in a battle would he have taken the time to heal him rather than face an opponent? Had he really just done it because it was a simple spar?
What was his purpose anymore if the only thing that he claimed to be good at was something that...everyone he faced was actually better at? It terrified him. The idea of not having a purpose. Of being entirely useless. After all, who would wish to keep an entirely useless boil around?
It was win he was just beginning to sink into these questions of despair that a familiar frame came into his line of vision, also running around the school. Lady Hel. And suddenly things began to line up in his mind. Lady Hel trained, and she was a good fighter. She knew what she was doing. She was precisely the type of person that might be able to answer some of the questions that he was beginning to give a bit too much attention. Putting on a burst of speed he ran up beside her and then matched her pace before addressing her. "Greetings Lady Hel." Oh, did he just use the title he had given her? Moving right along..."I was wondering if you would do me the honor of sparring with me this morning? If you are not too busy that is." The gymnasium was in sight, so it would be rather easy of them to just go ahead and run straight there if she agreed.
((Why not roll for initiative now? ;D ))

One would think Hel would have crawled up in her room like a lot of her peers after the Horsemen Trials, but no. That just wasn’t Hel. Sitting around and feeling sorry for yourself was something that the Valkyrie didn’t believe in humoring right now, not when there was much that could be done still. Besides, exercising helped to relieve that anxiety and tension from the trials. The ghoul was just running along the path every morning like she usually did, which a familiar voice, and soon a familiar form, caught her attention.
Hel grimaced at being addressed as ‘Lady’. “Gah!” She cried. “How many times must I say it, friend? It is just Hel!” Before she could grill him more about terms of addressing, he said a very magical word. Spar. A small grin came to her lips. “Never too busy for that! Shall we then?”
---
Luckily since the Gym had been right there, it hadn’t taken too long to get ready, and now the ghoul had her feet spread a bit and her fists up as she stared down Yin. “I think you have advanced, eh?”

Oh, now the topic at hand really came out. Hunters. Yeah…
Hel was silent for a bit longer as she thought about it, and Yin then delivered a rather decent strike to her gut. The ghoul was knocked back a bit with a small grunt, and she shifted her position once more before raising up her fists again. “I think I can see where your mind is heading friend.” Hel started, taking a deep breath. “Yes, as of late, it seems that no matter what we do, we can not overcome them…but you should know that doing absolutely nothing will certainly not overcome them either. I will try, and try, and keep on trying, until I can try no more.”
She flexed her hands before balling them up again. “As I have told Mot. You have only truly given up, you have only truly lost, when you stop trying.”
