So what I want to start doing in my training threads is time-skip a bit, which means roleplay a part, and then skip to, say, five minutes later. I don't know if this counts as powerplaying, but my point with it is so muse doesn't get lost in my training threads, such as two-liners like"Yellowpaw bunched her muscles, jumped, and landed on a flower, etc. etc. (insert random stuff)."
I usually do this when I'm the mentor. An example:
Hailfeather walked around, examining Leafpaw's position. "Your belly needs to be a bit more lower," he criticized. "Too high will take you off balance, but too low will do the same. Make sure your tail is flat, too, so it doesn't drag through the leaves. All right, I'm going to make you hold your position, because hunting takes patience. Sometimes you need to crouch a long time to wait for the right moment to strike. Ready.... go!"
--TIME SKIP--
"All right, that's enough," Hailfeather said. "Do your muscles hurt? Now, the next part...."
Of course, if the other RPer doesn't prefer this, I tell them to tell me so.
