[Miyabino's on the field by himself. He's sitting cross legged in the center of one of the goal posts with one elbow resting on his knee and his hand supporting his head as he stares intently at the soccer ball that's in front of him.

...Maybe it would be a better use of time to go back inside and look for someone to actually play with him.]

[He's a goalie and it's his job to block the ball.

This time though, the ball manages to sneak past him.]

Tch, that was just luck.

[backtothestars]

[ ...He's actually surprised that one got in considering his luck with things like this. But he won't let it show on his face, instead choosing to keep it straight (and a little haughty). ]

2-2, it seems.

[gracefulguard]

2-1. That first one didn't count.

[Regardless, here, have the ball back.]

[backtothestars]

You have to be on the ball all the time. [ Yes it totally did count shut up.

Hoshifuru takes the ball and kicks it around a few times before suddenly kicking it at the goal. Now he wishes that he trained a little harder at his kick rather than speed. ]

[gracefulguard]

When there's practice or a game. That wasn't anything-- just you intruding.

[And it definitely shows because it was an easy save for Miyabino.]

[backtothestars]

Hn. [ Nooo comment. Just means he's got to try harder.

Attempting the same Hissatsu shot again! Because he doesn't know any others like hell he's going to lose. ]

[gracefulguard]

[And unlike someone he actually has more than one technique. This time he uses Counter Drive instead.]

[backtothestars]

[ Well it's not like he's stealing the ball off anyone, which is what his other technique is for.

This time, the shoot might feel a little stronger -- he's not underestimating this guy anymore. ]

[gracefulguard]

[The force of the shoot does push him back a bit but he manages to stop the ball.]

That wasn't too bad, actually.

[backtothestars]

[ ...Well actually this goalie is not bad at all. ]

Of course not. [ He flicks his hair back. If he's not going to beat this guy then he's going to at least keep his ego intact. ]

[gracefulguard]

[He's from Teikoku, what did you expect. They're actually a pretty strong team despite always losing when they play a game on screen.]

Want to try again?

[backtothestars]

[ ...Fair point. But it's not like Tengawara is a bad team, either -- they just kind of maybe got squashed by the Fifth Sector. ]

Hn, it's fine.

Maybe next time. [ There's no point right now of course. He takes this as a cue to practice more!! ]

[gracefulguard]

Suit yourself then. [So instead of throwing the ball back, he holds it against himself with one arm while the other hand rests on his hip.

Finally, he allows himself to smile properly instead of his previous condescending smirks.]

That was fun, actually.

[backtothestars]

It was! [ He smiles properly, too. ]

My name's Hoshifuru Kaguya. [ He offers a hand to shake. ]

[gracefulguard]

[Miyabino gladly shakes his hand.]

I'm Miyabino.

[backtothestars]

It was good meeting you.

[ +1 rival!! ]

[gracefulguard]

Same for me. We should play again some time.

[backtothestars]

Of course. Next time, I will be better though.

[ And that is a promise. ]
