training camp

[michimiyayui]

I wasn't sure if I could make it, but the other manager for the club can't go, so I guess I'll have to. I need to catch up with everything, a year abroad can really change you. I feel like i'm going throigh reverse culture shock and wanted to stay in the city and get used to everything again, but it will have to wait.

It's getting really cold now and my room is so badly insulated. I need to buy a radiator heater and an electric blanket.

Does anyone know of a good place to buy things like that.. and hopefully a place that delivers?

8?! Wow man... I wish I was like that. I admire people who have those dreams so early and follow through with them. You know, when you do get there, it will worth even more. That's really sad though, that you don't have a partner. What kind of person are you looking for? A 100% partner in crime sorta thing?

I am getting quite excited about this! We should totally play and see how that goes. You've played volley before yes? So I can teach you a few things. Since you are already a sports person it will be easy for you to adapt. Volleyball can be a little painful tho and super fast paced.

Change roads? Why would I want that? Hehe... are you still worried I'll think you're a creeper?

Do you have LINE or something my ID is [screened] yuirocketmon [endscreen].

[screened] I believe it's still a secret, but Sanada-kun has become my doubles partner. I'm very excited because he's so strong and barely ever loses. I hope that I can live up to his expectations of me. I'll train even harder so that we can be the strongest.[endscreen]

I played in PE in high school. I've been wanting to see how much of tennis carried over. I have a tennis serve that goes over 200km/h, I wanted to see how much different it would be to serve in volleyball.

Aa... I am concerned, yes... it has been nice talking to you, but I wouldn't wish for you to think I was going by on purpose or for some untoward reason. It's just I run there... and I wanted you to be aware of it, I suppose. Since.. I'd like it if we could.. perhaps be friends...?

I do have a LINE. My ID is [screened]dataman[endscreen]. I'll add you now.

[screened] You two? I've never really been much into tennis, but now I wanna watch! When you two play someone, let me know. I wanna see.[endscreen]

Is that really fast for tennis? Sounds ridiculously fast! Tennis balls are so wee too, how can you even see that?! The fastest spike I think it's 145km/h, of course, you're hitting this with your hand and the receiver with their wrist. Usually though, spikes ate around 80/100km/h for men. There is this Cuban female setter who serves at 132km/h. It's really amazing.

Aren't we already ^o^! Inui-san, don't worry about it. Seriously, I don't really mind.

THANKS~ Added. So when I find out what night I can oder that italian, I hope you are free too. 8D

[screened] I'll make sure to let you know. Since we go to different universities, we have to register for an outside club and play in public tournaments to gain professional Japanese rankings. When there's a tournament, I'll let you know. Sanada-kun is amazing to watch play. I'm boring, but I'll definitely make it so he can shine 100% on the court. [endscreen]

It is fast, yes. I see that's interesting data. I wonder if I could spike at a higher speed by applying my tennis knowledge? That will be interesting to see.

We are? Ah. I haven't had any friends for a long time. I made two friends since I've been here and it's the most I've ever had. I'm very grateful. I don't like to assume I'm someone's friend. I usually wait for them to tell me or give me permission to be their friend. I think it would be a little rude to assume I mean so much to a person that they'd refer to me as such.

I'm never doing anything but training. So whenever you are free will be fine for me.

Mm, I don't know much about tennis, but it's definitely different techniques. The swings are different and there is a lot more leg work than tennis because there is a lot more jumping, while tennis has a lot more running. Most importantly, you need to learn how to dive. There is a lot of technique involved in that, it's really not that easy to grasp. But I'm sure you can learn.

I just assume! I'm so rude hehe. We've been talking and I think you're interesting, so, you have my permission to call me friend 8D

Okay, I'll do that then! Maybe Wednesday, but I'll drop you a message.

Surely you are essential to the pair, so he can't shine 100% on his own, otherwise it wouldn't be a pair.

[kanzenkakuritsu]

It sounds like a tiring experience - but given my level of stamina, I'd definitely like to test myself against the skills of volleyball. After all, my weaknesses will only be highlighted all the more, therefore make what I need to train that much clearer.

I'm glad. I'll talk to you then.

[screened] I know that I am essential. Sanada definitely doesn't need me to shine, however. He has always been more than capable of that on his own. I suppose I just meant that on the court together, he is the one that shines and I will be the one that supports. I don't mind that role. In fact, I find myself drawn to more supporting roles. Though I believe Sanada-kun is a person capable of using me to my fullest capacity in doubles. I'm a specific type of player and it is difficult to find someone who is a match for the things I do. Sanada is simply an amazing all rounder that can do anything. He's agreed to support me and my style of tennis so we can form a pair around that. I don't think I could ask for more. I won't let him down.

[michimiyayui]

What are your weaknesses? Or you mean you need to still find them?

[screened]
I understand that. My school has an amazing volleyball team, and our setter and spiker were the perfect match, but... for what my knowledge of captain is worth, you have to depend on one another if you play together. That's how things work in the end. Sanada-san said he's called the Emperor, so I'm sure that if he agreed to play with you is because you are there with him too.

[kanzenkakuritsu]

Definitely my speed. It always has been. I'm slow off the mark. I've been desperately training to fix that, however.

[screened]
though... even with my one big weakness. Sanada is fast. I know he'll always catch whatever I miss while I'm at the net. I trust him. I know I can rely on him to make up for my shortcomings. I do rely on him. A lot. That's why I have to work hard too. So he can rely on me just as much as I know I'll be relying on him.
