I'm not going to shoot off target! [He huffs a little, before he finds himself laughing.] But you're right. All the more reason to practice. It's been a year and a half since I've really held a bow. But it's not like I've forgotten!

Then you can prove it! [firm nod.] Now that the sun's back out, it's less an issue to get out that way. When you're ready to give it a shot, we'll do it!
[it's a totally-pumped feedback loop here: Manabu's looking ready to jump off the seat himself.] Mn! Okay! You-- [oh!] You have a bow already? Or just a sword? We could go to Diluc and pick up some things from the smith there!
