That's true. I remember... when I was a kid, I used to think my father was the greatest swordsman in the entire world. In reality, he could swing a blade, but... not that well.
[ there's a little laugh at the old memory, and he puts off a couple animal crossing flowers. ] Once I met Sir Sazantos, that blew everything else out of the water. Meeting someone really talented at something you want to learn can be the start of a whole life's journey, too.
[ cute... well except the part about sazantos because. hm. anyway she doesn't know how to respond to that so she awkwardly ignores it and it comes off as really rude. you're welcome. ]
Usefulness is one thing, but... I think there's a lot of merit in following your passions.
[ rondo smiles - warm and soft. ]
My sister told me the same thing, and that's how I ended up becoming a knight. We make the world a little better when we follow the things that our heart wants.

About eight or so? Other stuff didn't stick for me, either. Like kick-boxing. Maybe it would have been more useful than dance in the long run.
[ she shrugs... ] But you like what you like.

Being a knight is a lot bigger. You can fight to protect people.

If it makes you happy, anyway, I think it's useful.
