[open] My Opinions on Catchers

[the_worst_ace]

I saw that Takaya is harassing Muscles about "what makes a good catcher," over in Muscle's online journal

You're almost right. But a pitcher has to be sneakier, because he has to be able to throw so that he fools the batter into trying to hit something he can't. All the catcher strategy in the world can only sort of make up for that lack.

[the_worst_ace]

Well, that's why I, as a pitcher, am a ninja! To inspire my sneakiness!

Hey aren't you the catcher for Tosei? Nice to meet you!

[kawainotkowai]

A ninja? What clan?

Former catcher. I'm at the end of my third year, so I'm an old man and they won't let me play anymore.

[the_worst_ace]

I'm so glad you asked! Kōga clan!

And you can always play in college you know. My catcher is graduating too and he is going to play in college! Baseball is fun and you should never stop playing!

[kawainotkowai]

Are you planning to poison your opponents? Because I don't think that's the sort of thing you should be publicizing?

I might play again in college, but that's months away. ヽ（´ー｀）┌

[the_worst_ace]

There is more honor in declaring your intentions openly and then going ahead and sneakily poisoning everyone. (for your information I am not actually a ninja I am only pretending)

Well, there is also Big League baseball, which is a step up from the Senior League. Unless you're over 18 you can play. I was in the Senior League at the end of middle school and it was a lot of fun. They also play in the fall.

[kawainotkowai]

Not if you're a ninja! Ninja take pride in sneakily poisoning everyone. (Well, that's a relief. I was worried I'd have to sic my ninja army on you before you went after Tosei.)

True. Maybe I'll look into that, after I finish doing all the studying I want to do. It's hard getting into a good college these days, Haruna-kun.

Can we be the Fuuma clan, Kazu-san? The Fuuma were the awesomest ninja clan ever! =DD

And you're not an old man just because you're a third-year. You've had those grey hairs since middle school. XD

[kawainotkowai]

You've been watching too much Naruto, I think.

I've been an old man for a long time, and I blame you and Junta for it.

[riousgeneration]

Hee. XDDDDD Don't deny that you enjoyed it. We're such cute kouhai after all! ^^

... Though, what exactly are you doing to me in that icon? O.o

[kawainotkowai]

Cute, but aggravating. You age me, Riou. You age years past my time.

[OOC: It's actually Mihashi, but I think icons are out of character like journal names.]

[riousgeneration]

[OOC: So If I wanna ask about icons I have to do it OOC? I thought it was possible that our characters will have icons of themselves while posting... well if not I'm sorry about that!]

It's fun aging you, Kazu-san. XDDDD So can we please be the Fuuma clan? Please?

[kawainotkowai]

You're trying to drive me to drink, Riou. But I guess we can be the Fuuma clan until Roka burns all your Shounen Jump again.

[riousgeneration]

Can't we continue to be Fuuma even if he burns my Shounen Jump? T.T I dunno when he might do it again!

And if you drink you'll REALLY be an old man. XP

[kawainotkowai]

Nope. Once they're gone, you go back to being an ordinary baseball player.

Shit. I already bought the beer.

[riousgeneration]

NOES~! Kazu-san is so mean... T.T

Heh. I'll tell Jun-san you've become a beer-guzzling ossan! =D
