I understand fully. With everyone back from the Asia Games, I almost miss Inui. Almost. My sincere hope is that you are able to take something valuable from these practices.
Perhaps it would be wise to wear gloves and denim or leather.
[ooc; first strike there, second very deleted. :D;]
I am afraid I know little of what he has been up to in recent months. Momoshiro was able to tell me a bit. I'm glad. I find it quite pleasant to share the court with you, again; I'm proud of how you've grown.
Have you tried wrapping her in a towel before putting her in the carrier? I seem to remember grandfather mentioning something like that, before.
Huh. Yeah, I can't say I really know much either. Maybe I'll have to have Momo tell me. It's really nice playing against professionals again. Last season just wasn't... wasn't what I wanted. This's much better. Thanks.
... No, I haven't. Maybe we'll try it this trip an' see how it goes. S'not a bad idea.
[OOC: Holy crap, I'd swear he was blushing at that compliment. o.O;]
It seems they kept in touch for a bit. The only real mystery is Fuji. He is probably lurking in a dark corner just waiting for his name to be said so that he may pop out and not-surprise us all. The same could be said of Inui. I've always I would not be much of a buchou if my personal goals did not include in them your success. It reflects upon me, as well, when you are able to show the world your best tennis; just as my performance in the upcoming games will reflect upon Japan, Seigaku, all of my coaches and mentors, my teammates - you. You have rarely disappointed me; a bad season can be resolved with dedication to a goal of a better season - your best season.
She also may be more agreeable if you make the carrier more attractive to her - perhaps line it with something soft and familiar.
Huh. Well, Momo was always better at that than I was. An' I wouldn't put that past Fuji-sempai. I wonder if he knows our managers. It kinda... wouldn't surprise me, you know? ... Well, I guess you gotta point. A lot of how I learned to play my own game was... well, your doing. S'good to hear I haven't let you down much. I'll try to keep it that way. An' we'll see what this season is like. With opponents like you these, the game's really worth playing.
Yeah, s'also a good point. I c'n think of a few things to try. Like Momo's shirt
[OOC: Hee~ Or Tennis Buchou Magic! :D; (... er, redundant. ^^;;) All strikes deleted; and now he's going to steal one of Momo's shirts. >>;]
With our luck, Fuji has become a manager and is in league with their dark society of wicked, horrible things. Oishi still brings that up, from time to time. My recklessness. Regardless, I am honored to be credited with such a thing. I owe to you much the same. I know my teammates are glad to have you with us, as well.
I wish to make a point to attend your matches. Reading about it in the paper or online is very little like watching you play. Perhaps that will motivate you further?
Best of luck to you, then.
[ooc: Well, we've lost Tezuka to "tennis~ ♥" land. Or possibly "Echizen~ ♥" land. It's hard to tell the difference.]
He probably has. Seriously. Or he'll kill us for speculating. Oishi calls you reckless? Well, I guess I've seen it in you, but.. s'hard to bring out. But I guess not impossible. An' those really have been the... best matches. And I really appreciate all of you being willing to practice with me. Maybe I ought to try out for the team the next time around, huh?
Well, I promise I'll keep you updated, then. You c'n have the VIP seats, Mom always liked you. S'long as you don't mind sitting with her and Dad.
Mada mada da ne, huh?
[OOC: XD; Ahaha. I <3 you, Tezuka. Seriously. He makes Ryoma all... well. Like this. :D;]
Little would surprise me of Fuji, after all these years. Does he seem the assassin type to you? I admit to some reckless behavior when it comes to you. But, it is as you have said - those have been the best matches. I would be endlessly pleased were you to try out for the team.
If I would not be intruding upon your mother and father, I would like that.
You still have lots more to work on. Right?
[ooc: XD; He just <3's his... er... pillar. Um. :D; It's cute. Ryoma makes Tezuka all chatty and proud and... like this.]
Yeah, I think so. He could be. I wouldn't put it past him. Mm, blaming it on me, huh? Well, s'ong as it's been worth it for you, s'been more than worth it for me. An' if that's the case, I'll do it, then.
You couldn't intrude on anyone if you tried, Buchou. It'll be fine.
That's right. But nobody beats me at tennis.
[OOC: XD; Well, Ryoma really looks up to his buchou. <3 And definitely is willing to admit things he'd never say at 12 or even 16. :D;]
You do make it rather hard to be credible when I don't listen to my own advice. Mother comments that I smile more often when you are around, however, so perhaps it is a good thing for both of us.
Well, taking your own advice is something most people are usually bad at. Can't fault you too much for it. Really, though? I'll take the blame for that, then.

... Maybe it would. She doesn't like the carrier.
[OOC: Only a strike, then. XD;]

A challenge?

Could be.

Well then. We have another match to play.
