010. Eyes meeting over the noise. Tezuka/Fuji, Echizen. Spoilers for the end of the Nationals OVA 6, after Tezuka's match.

-

Another win, and Seigaku still were not used to it; the excitement was almost unbearable, and everyone insisted on the traditional winner's 'banquet' at Kawamura Sushi. The crowd was lead (sprinting and yelling back) by a very hungry Momo, and an always-ready-to-eat-or-celebrate Eiji.

"I need to retie my shoelace," Fuji said, looking down at his shoe and finding the source of the annoying flicking noise.

"We'll catch you up," Tezuka said to the others, unexpectedly. No-one acknowledged having heard him; they were too busy rushing off towards food. Fuji felt Tezuka's shadow over him as he sat down and fiddled with his lace.

"Is it me, or are they acting even more excited than usual?" Tezuka asked idly, watching the stampede distance themselves.

"Oishi told them about Hyakuren Jitoku no Kiwami." Fuji smiled. "I think they are excited to see a Tezuka beyond their wildest dreams. I did not want to say ( ... )

So I'm totally commenting and I shouldn't be commenting here but oh well ;) vacivity December 14 2006, 06:57:55 UTC
Wow. I like this. A lot. Like, not more than the rest, but for entirely different reasons. The Fuji stuff, the Tezuka stuff. Oishi and his heart and his mistakes. Echizen and the challenge.

It took misconduct and mistreatment of tennis, unecessary cruelty, to seal it, and unleash it both. You are not capable of that, and I thank god for it."

That's just beautiful. :x It says so much about Fuji and Tezuka! Because even if Fuji can be cruel, he's not... intentionally and unnecessarily cruel. And that Tezuka recognizies it. It's amazing.

I don't mind at all! I love comments :D emothy December 14 2006, 09:18:43 UTC
See, this is the "I come up with ideas after WATCHING that I like better than most of the prompt-inspired ones" thing I was talking about ;) It was in my head for an entire day before I wrote it down; it made that work day verreh nice *haloshine*

I love Oishi! It made me notice a difference between he and Fuji in how they relate to Tezuka; I didn't buy that Fuji wouldn't have known what was happening, considering that in first year he knew Tezuka was left-handed before anyone else, and knows his game so well, so therefore it left the option hat he just didn't want to blab it all to the rest of the team. Where Oishi is his friend, and proud of it and willing to talk about how wonderful Tezuka is till the cows come home, Fuji thinks a little deeper and reminds himself of what Tezuka might want heard about himself first, because the emotions between them, and that they put out to everyone else, are important ( ... )

But I am messing up the things for the prompt table but oh well :D vacivity December 14 2006, 22:35:20 UTC
I really need to see the OVAs. :x Because these have sparked my curiosity.

You should write this essay! ;) I'd read it.

You tlaking about the S&M stuff there makes me think about the episode of House with the dominatrix and stuff. It's about love and trust and being open, and pleasure, not cruelty. Which a lot of people get confused, and think it's about cruelty. You have really made me like that aspect of their relationship, a lot. :D

no you're not; everything's linked happily in the table! emothy December 14 2006, 22:40:20 UTC
Go watch them! :D I may rewatch what I've seen so far, too. And yell at Oishi on the screen some more for breaking Eiji's heart. *slaps him silly* But then he gets forgiven :x

Muhahaha one day it will come out because I love to think about Fuji & Tezuka; they are so layered for ones so young (but not really ;) ).

Hehe I love that aspect of their relationship, but I'm too intimidated to try and write about it in more detail! I don't really have experience in it to back me up after all ;)
