Angels and Devils XV

Temerity twisted Lukan's arm behind his back and held him still. "You're improving."
"That's not saying much," Lukan said.
"No, really. It takes me a full second to beat you now." Temerity grinned and ruffled Lukan's hair. "Have you been working on that stance?"
"Oh, um, yeah. I've been trying to get in some extra practice."
"Well, it shows. You're much more balanced now. Now you just need some combat skills."
Lukan sighed. "I doubt I'll ever have those."
"You won't with that attitude. Come on, let's keep going."
Lukan tried the move they'd been working on, but once again, Temerity countered him easily. They kept practicing.
"By the way, Luke," Temerity said. "What was with those wings the other day?"
"Oh, that... It's a...n aasimar thing."
"An aasimar thing?"
Lukan hesitated and looked around the training yard. It was empty except for them.
"My mom calls it Amaned Yaara, but I don't know what it means."
Temerity stopped, blinking. Lukan knocked her over.
"Got you! One point for- hey Temmy, you okay?"
Temerity blinked again, then shook her head and stood up. "Yeah, fine. Sorry. It means Blessed by the Ancients."
Lukan stared at her. "How'd you know that?"
Temerity smirked. "Because I know everything. Now come on, try to knock me over again."
