Ah, I'm a tournament fighter! [ she flashes him a thumbs up, as if this were a totally normal thing. ]
I participate in the Wild's League every year, and that's always in front of a live audience and televised, and I rank pretty damn high, obviously~ [ not that she ranks as high as queen BUT WHATEVS WHO CARES ABOUT HER ]
[ "Wild's League"... it sounds scary to him. But wow, Dal Dal is a tournament fighter. He seems even more impressed and it plainly shows on his face as he's nibbling on that cookie, still in his mouth. ]
"What made you be a fighter though? Since your mom was a cook and stuff... did she also fight?"
Hell no. She doesn't like any of it. [ her mom isn't exactly disapproving, but she's never expressed the same interest in it as dal dal herself has. and she's always complaining about how the sport's robbed her of her sweet, delicate maiden daughter. hmph. ]
I took it up to help me lose weight when I was younger, and it kind of just stuck.
[ Ellis looks surprised at the fact that taking up taekwondo could help people lose weight. But then again, it was in the martial arts category after all. Of course it would help. After the small, internal "duh" moment, Ellis grins. ]
"Now you can kick down doors if they get in the way! You must have some method to not hurt your feet when you kick..."
[ given all that you put your body through in order to just be in shape for taekwondo, it's really no wonder how effective it'd been in helping dal dal keep off all the weight from her mother's cooking. ]
There's a science to it, of course. [ she pats his shoulder. ] Once you're ready for it, you'll learn how to, too. You'll see!
