Oh, there he was, Mr. Logic Man. How dare he toss all of this back at her! Hana sighed. At least she got the hang of fusing her reiryoku with her zanpakuto. It was all about learning to sharpen it now, so Hana reinfused reiryoku into her blade.
“You are quite right; yelling does nothing good for me.” Hana said, not admitting that yelling at her would likely just upset her and convince her to give up. She did not need a drill sergeant. Her ability to learn came from something else.
“Do you happen to have advice on how to sharpen my reiryoku? I have it in the blade, as I am sure you can see, but how do I manipulate it once it is there?"

Hana absorbed his example like a sponge took in mud. She got a little of it, but felt uncomfortable with the explanation afterwards. If she was comparing this to anything, it would be to reading. She loved to read, but it didn’t start out that way. Once she new the fundamentals of spelling, definitions, and grammar, that’s when reading became practice for… well, reading. The more she did it, the faster she got. Trying this whistle example only got him a funny look and an, “Of course not. When would I have had time to learn such a meaningless skill?”
“Shunpo?” Hana asked, distracted, as she once again tried sharpening her reiryoku while it was in her blade. It wasn’t working, and now she was confused by his question and her focus dropped. She let her arms relax and looked at him with a raised eyebrow. “Shunpo… It is… like a dance for me. I used to dance all the time, and dancing required specific footwork that became quite useful when practicing something like shunpo. In short, I just took another step, continued the choreography until I got to the place I wanted to be. Just… exceedingly fast.”

Hana much preferred her dancing example. She did that for so many years that it did come naturally, along with calligraphy and playing the violin. Changing the example to shunpo unmotivated Hana more than helped. She got his point, but it wasn’t… fun. Nothing about this job was fun or comfortable. Her shoulders slacked and her head lowered. She was lost in thought until he decided to call it a day.
“Okay. I will continue my training for a little longer,” Hana said, waving as he left. Once he was gone, she stood in silent contemplation for a minute or two, before ripping away thoughts negative thoughts and raising he sword again. Being a Shinigami may not be fun, but it was better than her alternative. Hana would rather continue her training and learn to destroy hollow before becoming a wife.
