Dangerously Graceful

Summary:

Amethyst walks in on Pearl's training.
A short one shot based on my headcanon for human Pearl.

Notes:

This is the first SU fanfic I've ever uploaded. It's really short. In this au Pearl is part of a HEMA club - HEMA means Historical European Martial Arts - and sometimes she practices in her apartment. I imagine Pearl and Amethyst to be 19 and 16 respectively, but you can think of them however you want. Enjoy!

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Work Text:

She was beautiful.

She pirouetted around the room with the grace of a ballerina, swinging her sword with deadly accuracy.

Parry, thrust

Amethyst almost couldn't believe the sight before her. She never thought the older girl could do anything this dangerous. She always worried about ever single thing and yet here she was, handling a blade like a professional swordsman.

Thrust

It seemed sharp. She looked dangerous.

Cut, parry, thrust

It was hypnotizing. 

Amethyst couldn't look away.

Parry, turn...

"Amethyst?"

Notes:

Yep, really short. I might continue it, maybe... it's unlikely.
