[Coming To Terms]
"You don't remember? You really don't remember a thing from the clinic?" Izuku asked, confusion lacing his words, using a pair of metal blocking pads to block a smooth, spinning metal ball. It warped the metal slightly, before falling to the ground. The pair were at the indoor training facility, Gym Gamma. A barren, flat indoor field, which Cementoss typically manipulated to suit the needs of students. Although, currently, it was a simple flat terrain.
Re-adjusting herself, Yoshihara grunted in acknowledgement. "I'll explain more later," Yoshihara muttered, rolling her left shoulder. She was dressed in the U.A. Tracksuit, as was Izuku. Behind them was a holo-caller, a variation of the holo-messenger that U.A. had designed. The person on the call was Gyro, his expression neutral.
Yoshihara had contacted him via email to judge her on her use of The Spin, knowing full well that she wasn't anywhere near close to being able to properly using it. After all, her fight with Susan had been a fluke. She knew it had been a fluke—and she was currently proving that to herself.
Frustration bubbled within as Yoshihara huffed. This wasn't going anywhere, and it was starting to get on her nerves. "I don't get it... What am I doing wrong? When I did it the first time, it came to me naturally, but now that I'm trying it's like... it doesn't want to work," Yoshihara grumbled.
"You're forcing it, that's why," Gyro began, as Yoshihara turned to look at him. "It's just as I told Joseph. You cannot force The Spin to happen. It has to be second nature. For example: If I were to grab you by the wrist, and hold it tight, you're muscles would instinctively bend." As Gyro spoke, he grabbed his wrist, held it, and his arm bent. Yoshihara stared, confused. Seeing as the analogy wasn't working, Gyro frowned, before snapping his fingers. "Alright, how about this. I want you to take a good look at your bubbles. If they're anything like Joseph's, then that might help you in understanding the issue."
Yoshihara frowned, but did as she was instructed. She summoned Killer Queen to her side, had it extend on of its fingers, and produce a bubble bomb. As it manifested, for a split second, around the tip of Killer Queen's finger, there was a brief flash of golden energy that seemingly pulled something in, before forming the bubble bomb.
"Did you see that? Your Stand emitted something from its finger tip." Gyro continued, a smirk on his face. "Your Stand and Joseph's are extremely similar. Soft & Wet produces a string that spins into his bubbles, whereas your Stand produces a chemical compound from its finger tip, which it spins into creating a bubble. Also, notice how it happens instinctively. The Stand doesn't force it to happen. It just does. That's nature for you."
As Gyro continued, Yoshihara looked back over to the training ball that she borrowed from Josefumi, before walking over to it and picking it up. Izuku looked at her, and smiled. "You've got this, I believe in you!"
Yoshihara smiled. "Thanks," and just as she said that, she stared at the metal ball, and without thinking about it, the ball began to spin of its own accord, warping her skin in the palm of her hand, but doing so in a painless way. Her smile widened slightly, before she then threw the metal ball at the metal block pads.
The spinning metal ball slammed into the block pad at full force, causing Izuku to stagger, taken aback by the attack as his defence was interrupted entirely. The metal twisted inward before the ball feel to the ground, still spinning, before coming back to Yoshihara like a boomerang, which Yoshihara caught.
"And there ya go!" Gyro said, cackling as he did. "It has to be second nature, otherwise it won't work. Like everything in nature, it must happen purely as if it were supposed to happen. Trying to force something to happen won't get you anywhere. You were unconsciously using The Spin before, but now that you're consciously using it, that means that your bombs are more than likely going to pack more of a punch. I suggest getting used to it before you use it in an official capacity."
