[ Does the same from all directions, testing his balance on flat ground before looking somewhat satisfied. ]

I guess I could let you on the rope.

[overclocking]

[wait really]

... Are you sure?

[deretsune]

You don't need to do any strength training, so it's all balance training from here. It's hard to do off of a rope unless we get more rope and set up a shorter one downstairs or something...

[overclocking]

Well... You're the expert.

[deretsune]

Are you scared?

[overclocking]

I wouldn't call it scared-- apprehensive?

[deretsune]

I'm asking if you're afraid, not anything else.

Are you?

[overclocking]

...

No.

[deretsune]

[ Grabs the pole again, pushing herself up onto the rope with ease. ]

Come on, then. Just onto the rail before the rope.

[overclocking]

[Follows, slowly and carefully. His balance isn't terrible, at least]

[deretsune]

[ Hands him the pole. ]

Feel free to move it until you find the right balance with the pole. It'll help you balance a lot better. You're going to walk with the rope in the arch of your feet--

No shoes, by the way. Socks only.

[overclocking]

[Pauses, climbing back down so that he can pull his boots off and set them aside. Then standing on the rail again, considering the rope seriously.

Why am I even doing this

...

This would be easier with chainspine :T]

[deretsune]

[ if you cut my tightrope i'll cut you ]

Now, rope against the arch of you feet, always be aware of your center of gravity. No matter how your body moves, it must always be above the rope and nowhere else.

[overclocking]

[I'm not going to cut your tightrope gosh!!!

Inches one foot onto the rope, then the other... Ssllllowly... why am I doing this]

[deretsune]

Be confident.

[ Walking backwards a step every time he takes one forward, holding out her arms. ]

The pole will balance you easier than you'll balance yourself.

[overclocking]

[NOT WALKING... just sort of focusing on not falling off... also this pole is probably longer than I am tall]

Er... I think walking might take longer...

[deretsune]

[ It probably is-- the longer it is, the easier it makes it to maintain balance. Chrono might find that so long as he keeps his feet in the right position, balancing even on the rope is startingly easy. ]

...Chrono-san?

[overclocking]

[STILL HOLDING STILL, eying the spot on the rope in front of him like he's not sure whether he really wants to try for that or not. D..distractedly;]

Hmm?

[deretsune]

It's okay to fall.
