[Al barely has time to nod before it goes flying, and he laughs as he chases after the thing. He tries to jump and catch it mid-air, but winds up missing as it sails to a stop sticking out of the sand.]

[He chuckles and picks it up, miming the throw Blake had made a few times before tossing the frisbee back, maybe with a bit more force than he needed.] Catch!

[oversight]

[ Of course, as with all things left to the unpredictability of the world, the Frisbee takes that added oomph and flies well out of Blake's reach. He chances it down and quickly sends it back Al's way. ]

Got a hell of an arm for this kinda thing. Wait until we start doin' trick shots, then you gotta start buildin' some skills.

Trick shots? [Al runs to intercept it, managing to catch it before it hits the sand this time. He sends it back to Blake, this time with a more reasonable force.] What sort of trick shots can you do?

[oversight]

[ It's much easier to catch this time around, and then Blake stops and gestures with the disc. ]

There's a behind-the-back catch. Or the under-the-leg catch. Also, angling the thing up a certain way to make sure it comes back to you like a boomerang. Pretty neat all the things you can do.

[ He spins the Frisbee between his fingers before tossing it back. ]

Behind the back? [Al licks his lips as Blake lets the disk fly, and debates for a moment before trying to position himself to do that behind-the-back catch. All he succeeds in, though, is getting his fingers smacked around for his troubles, and he yelps as the disk falls to the ground.]

[He shakes out the stinging from his fingers and picks up the Frisbee self-consciously before throwing it back to Blake.] Well, that didn't work.

[oversight]

[ Blake doesn't laugh, but he's amused nonetheless. Al's definitely the type of person to go above and beyond, so it doesn't surprise him at all that he takes steps toward the advanced stuff on his first time out. ]

Close, though. [ Snatching the Frisbee out of the air, he stands ready. ] Let's see if I can't get you a better throw this time...

[ Much more gently, he looses the disc, watching as it gently wafts Elric's direction. ]

[seekingbrother]

[Al licks his lips as he watches the disk, turning and moving a few steps to get in position. This time he does catch it, though it's a close thing.]

[And with the way he's beaming and jumping, you'd think he just won an olympic medal.] I did it, I did it!

[oversight]

[ That enthusiasm is more than enough to get Blake laughing. He nods, pleased by the performance. ]

That's really cool. Took me years to pick that up. Of course, I didn't have such an awesome teacher...

[ He's totally joking, of course. Al's the only one responsible for that good performance. ]
