Roman
Roman pressed his fingers together, giving the old man a stupid guilty grin. "I just started today. Technically I did some workouts in my high school class but you know...."
At this point, Yusho was already reading his mind so there couldn't be too much more of a loss of his dignity right?
YOLF:
Yusho
He leaned back, crossing his arms with a sonorous nod. But his eye twinkled with something like challenge. "We have a lot of work ahead of us."
YOLF:
Yusho
2 PM, Nexus Time
Yusho didn't blink through the hundreth groan that made its way out of Roman's mouth, out of just as many falls on the hard ground. He leaned down and offered his hand, pulling the boy up with little time to rest. "Remember, you're made of soft and hard, and you don't want to hit the ground with the hard parts and risk breaking something.
He dusted off his student before straightening him out in front of him again. "You want to roll out of the soft parts, so it hurts less and you can bounce right back into the fight. Now. Let's try that again."
yinsukin:
Roman
"Damn it," Roman said with a huff.
This was the third workout he had done today. Every order Yusho gave him felt like running a marathon at this point. It wasn't so much that he was physically tired, but that his body refused to act every time he ordered it to move. Vetoing that resistance caused him mental strain, annoyance, frustration. As he took the old man's hand, he said,
"If this can hurt me why are we doing it? Shouldn't you be teaching me how to kick someone's ass so I don't fall on mine?"
YOLF:
Yusho
The dragon-blooded pulled Roman to his feet and gave his back a curt slap. "Throw away the idea that you're going to be in fights and never get hurt. You can do everything right and still fall on your ass, and if you can't get up after the first time, you can forget returning the favor."
"Once more, with spirit" he commanded, assuming a relaxed stance for his student. "Then we'll call it for today."
