Cascade vs Mercy

Somehow she hadn't really expected Hati to be into the whole "review the training before jumping into spars" thing, not so soon after the disappointment of the siege. This was good though, Cas certainly wasn't going to argue. The siege had left a lot of Imperium on edge and ready to bite at the slightest provocation, Cascade among them, and the quick and dirty sparring was just what everyone needed to work through the frustration. Who'd really be able to concentrate on a lesson right now anyway? Oooooh but she was paired with Mercy. It was tempting to give her a talking-to right now, but... no, she really needed this spar and Mercy likely did too. She wasn't going to slack off just to have a chat they could easily have afterwards. Grinning at the younger, taller girl Cas moved aside and set herself into a fighting stance. "Well, you wanna go first or should I?" she asked, offering the girl the chance to pick if she wanted to make the first move. Whether she picked what she was more comfortable with or what she needed to work on was up to Mercy - she was old enough to make her own choices in training unless Valen said otherwise and assigned her a mentor, so Cas wasn't going to tell her what to do. Besides, this wasn't official training anyway, was it? This was just Beat-the-hell-out-of-each-other Time, courtesy of Hati Hroovitnisson the Masked Wonder.
