"Cool!" This has to be the most excited he's been about these wards in a while; the concept helpful, but ugh, does Tidus have no natural talent for this thing. He raises his hand with his arms band around it - luckily, the one Taiki isn't holding.

"Lemme show you what I've been doing." --And poof, an envelope appears. He takes his other hand back just so he can tip the papers inside into that hand, put them on his lap, Chinese characters greeting them on view.

Some rather nice ones, first, and Tidus taps the paper. "This is what Wei Wuxian showed me to practice. See? He even split up the strokes - you have to get them just right."
