[Action all over]

[It's not so much that Makie has a clean bill of health-- she needs to keep taking this medication for another four months or so, by the clinic's reports. But she hasn't had a coughing fit in weeks and feels pretty healthy, all things considered-- just a little drained, that's all. And now, she's passed the bar of her illness. She's no longer contagious.

Which means she can stop holing herself up in her room and start going forward with plans to actually, you know...

...live a little.

What a concept.

She still doesn't go out until the afternoon though, tracking down Saori (and other house members if they're around) to inform them of a decision she's made during her convalescence. And then likely packing what very few things she has, and putting haru-no-okina through some well-needed maintenance out on the sunny rooftop. But in the afternoon she goes to several places, shamisen in hand:

Seventh Heaven, to ask after her old job;

The tea house, because it's been a while;

The forge, to request a weapon;

The Welcome Centre, to find out what apartments are still free;

And finally, back to the battledome to investigate it more thoroughly. (She keeps an eye out for Konan on her travels, mindful of an offer made a long while ago. Just in case.) Once she knows sufficiently enough (or someone programs it for her), she steps into one of its rooms for the first time, shamisen neatly tucked to the side out of harm's way, and experiences it for herself. (The program name of the day: Shift Hunters. How fitting, that they're like giant wild dogs.)

...probably stays in there a little too long, though, since her stamina is kind of shredded right now.

Catch her at any of these places or anywhere in between.]

That's correct. They will look and even feel real, but they are simulations.

[Konan had to give credit where credit was due - the Battle Dome was an impressive piece of technology.]

[Konan nods and programs in a few other forest details, including birds and squirrels that will respond when someone – be it she and Makie or the cultists – gets close. A few more details like that are added before she deems the training scenario suitably realistic to train in. It needs to be as close to reality as possible.]

Are you ready?

[Konan has her projectile weapons ready, but she wants to hold out and rely on hand to hand and stealth as much as she can. She doesn't want to be vulnerable if she's ever unable to use her chakra for some reason. She is good at keeping opponents from getting too close, but sometimes things don't go according to plan. It's best to be well prepared.

She glances over at Makie's weapon. It's a good way to disguise the nature of her weapon. The artificial forest materializes around them as the training scenario loads up.
