Prince of Tennis: Ficlet: The Freudian Sense 1/1 (TezuRyo, PG)

[soundczech]

So I've been obsessively watching this anime about tennis while I was supposed to be doing my homework :| Gay pubescent tennis players :| I blame fucking bookshop.

Here is a ficlet. Characters do not belong to me, but to Konami. TezuRyo pre-slash and pubescent confusion.

ETA: Thankyou to lower for translating this into Chinese. Find it here. *_*

slkdjflskdjf Rach is gonna kill me. Or you. It'll be interesting to see who comes first.

BREAK MY HEART AND DIE.

Echizen Ryoma is twelve years old and everyone around him is obsessed with girls. Ryoma does not understand girls, and does not want to.

THIS MAKES ME SO HAPPY

jlkjfsdlkfj I love how I've got like however many comments and 97% of them are from you or Sam. I like to imagine that the rest of my flist is like, "...........wtf is she doing."

[bookshop]

the rest of them are totally trying to figure out how to ask you where to download it without losing face. =;

Cowards =;

ALSO THIS

Out of everybody Echizen likes watching tennis with buchou best; they both detest unnecessary chatter. Buchou’s arms are crossed and occasionally his fingers tap against the inside of his forearm. Echizen can hear the rustling of his jersey beneath Kikumaru-senpai’s shrieking.

After six games Kikumaru finishes with a somersault and a flourish. Six games Love.

“Hm,” says Tezuka.

SADFKJSFLDF TEZUKA'S LONG COLUMN. JSKLFJLSDF YES. AND. SHRIEKING EIJI. ♥ ♥ ♥ AND THE HM AND THE JERSEY RUSTLING. TOUCH THE JERSEY, RYOMA. TOUCH IT.

:LSKD:FLSKDF I LOVE HOW UNSUBTLE I WAS WITH THE PHALLIC SHIT IN THIS FIC. I almost had Ryoma dream about snakes and rockets.

[bookshop]

Ryoma can feel the tension in his muscles where their arms press together. I just keep rereading that line. And his stomach hurting, gaghgahsdfasldfjdasl;f. It is so easy to get swept away by the metaphors, anyway, considering that canon is basically GAY SYMBOLISM 101.

Guh, tension. I love it. *_* Somebody dared me to write a fic where Ryoma and Tezuka come without touching each other and in my head it consists mainly of them staring at each other until they explode.

[soundczech]

Panting at one another over the net.

[bookshop]

People seem to think that Echizen hates to lose. This is a misconception. Echizen hates to lose to the unworthy. Finding someone who can honestly beat him excites him. He becomes consumed by them, the puzzle of them. He moves his pieces to make them fit.

Few people have beaten him twice.

He smells like school-issue soap and his skin is a little rough when he reaches out to take the Game Boy out of Ryoma’s hands.

*squeaks*

THEIR ARMS ARE PRESSING TOGETHER. SADFKJSDKFJKLFSLKAFS OH MAN LOVE.

*SCREAMS*

I CANNOT BELIEVE YOU. THIS IS FABULOUS. THEIR HANDS AND GOLDEN BROWN SKIN AND TEZUKA TRYING NOT TO LOOK CONFUSED AND RYOMA'S DREAMS. OH. WRITE MORE. WRITE MORE. WRITE MORE. THANK YOU. OMG. I just kept trying to think of something to write and cover my mouth with my hands to keep from squeeing at the same time so it turned into this classic flail-type maneuver. omg.

[soundczech]

ldskjflksdjf Thanks. I'm glad I could please. S:DLKF:L FLAILING =D>.

I love Tezuka asldkj I love like. The idea of Tezuka. Serious young men kill me. Making their lives difficult. The thought of Tezuka being bad at anything kills me. I find the characters on PoT pretty hilarious in general, really. Ryoma is one of my favourite characters of all time. And Ibu, god. Stroke of genius.

I can't promise I'll write more as when I sat down to write last night I kept getting confused about the whole names thing. And I have that sense in the back of my mind that people can tell I don't know anything about tennis.

Tezuka makes me gleeful. I love him and I love how he is perfect and stoic and ridiculously never wrong even when he is, and how he basically follows Ryoma around staring at him and sacrificing things for him and FLYING BACK FROM GERMANY FOR HIM aksjdfsl;akfjlsfd (even though in my world the last 3rd of the anime never really happened and is only there so I can have more evidence to add to my "Tezu/Ryo = OTP" file). Tezuka is the classic tall dark stoic romantic hero in so many ways--he just shows up and you are half in love with him already.

Ryoma is like Harry for me in a lot of ways--the way he's sort of like the sun and all things revolve around him, and he awes you just by being no more or less than himself. Oh, Ryoma. ♥

Shinji, god, there are no words. IN THE MUSICAL HE SINGS AND PLAYS THE GUITAR. ASDJLKSJFKLSF. And his actor is perfect, you will bow down and never get up

[soundczech]

S:LDF:KSLF I HAVEN'T EVEN SEEN THE BIT WHERE HE FLIES BACK FROM GERMANY YET, BUT SOMEHOW I KNEW HE WOULD :ALKSD:LSAKD. :ALSKD:LAKSDA:LDK. GOD. THIS SHOW.

Tezuka is like laksjd suspisciously hot. Should I be afraid of your insistence that the last third of the anime never happened? If they lose I may die.

I love how bratty Ryoma is. There are Ryoma moments where I can just think about it and I still crack up. Like that early episode where they make him go to Kawamura sushi after the tournament and he's like :| and shuts the door in their faces. I love that his specialty serve is designed to hit people in the face.

My problem with the names thing is mostly the senpai buchou kun san chan thing, 'cause even though I'm aware of what they mean I get like, preoccupied with whether or not I have to use them. And there are a couple of them that like, I forget their other name. I can never remember Oishi's (first? last?) name.

:SLKDF: I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO THE MUSICAL. I'm saving it. God I love Japan.
