PoT Fic: Unfinished, Tezuka/Ryoma

[prillalar]

Gen or slash? With these two, it's much the same thing. Also, maybe I should note that "Unfinished" is the title. The story is complete. In case that's confusing.

Unfinished by Halrloprillalar
Prince of Tennis, Tezuka/Ryoma, G, 2000 words.
Ryoma, after Nationals.

NB: Manga canon, but with more anime characterization.

"Come with me," he says finally. He buys Ryoma okonomiyaki and talks to him, a little, about Wimbledon and grass courts.

"When we're pros," Ryoma says. He thinks about the players they will fight in the Grand Slam. Tezuka will place. Ryoma will win. "Do you want shrimp in the next one?"

Hehe... This story is just so freaking cute!!
Thanks a whole bunch for sharing XD

I'm really glad you liked it! Thank you for taking the time to let me know. :)

I love how Ryoma is jealous of Kaidoh when Kaidoh gets to play Tezuka first, how Ryoma brought the balls, how Horio finally becomes a regular with three years of tennis experience. ♥♥♥ This is just all kinds of awesome.

I'm a real Horio booster. :) Thanks for letting me know what you thought!

[mayhap]

Oh, so tantalizing and yet so satisfying. As long as the two of them can still play each other, everything else will work itself out somehow. ♥

Kaidoh and Momo are love, obviously. And Horio!

I had so much fun with Momo and Kaidoh in this one. Also, my hobbyhorse about "captain" vs "buchou". *g* I'm glad you liked it!

Heh, I love this so much, it's beyond words, except that I do have words. LOL! My favorite parts were 1) when Ryoma doesn't realize he's won and serves again and 2) when Tezuka invites Ryoma for food after their second match together. Awwwwwwww, young love. Too, too, too cute. Thanks for sharing!

[prillalar]

Thank you so much! I like these two best when they're really understated, at least at this age. Ryoma will grow into it. :)
