Work Text:

“Focus, initiates.”

She shut her eyes tight again. Impatience had gotten the better of her last time, but she’d get it right this time! No matter how tempting it was to just sneak a peak to see if anything had actually lifted off the ground yet, if anyone had managed it before she had.

“You must be calm, at peace. Do not demand anything; simply let the Force guide you and you will be able to guide the Force.”

She didn’t know what that meant, really. But she could practice those breathing exercises the crechemaster had taught her to calm down with when she had a nightmare or got upset. She wasn’t upset now, but maybe it would work on being impatient and excited, too.

She slowed her breaths, focusing only on them. She almost forgot that they were trying to lift things with the Force, too, but when she remembered, she kept her breathing steady, not letting her eagerness get the better of her. Instead, she tried to expand her focus, tracking breath and blocks.

Breathe, lift. Lift, breathe.

She thought that she could really feel herself lifting the training blocks.

But she didn’t look.

Just trusted the Force.
