Anybody out there good at makin' clothes?  Need some work done.  I can pay.

[Filtered to Norway, Junpei Iori]

Yo.  You two still interested in playin' blitz or what?

[Filtered to Ken Hidaka]

I'll be at the soccer field waitin' today.  We can go to the pool after.  Let's see what you got.

[Waiting at the field, kick-juggling a blitzball.]

Action?

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

[Shows up, grinning like a kid in a candy store, watch out Jecht he's found CLEATS, hauling a long a bag with a water bottle and a soccer ball]

[child-abuser.livejournal.com]

[Tosses up a hand in a lazy wave as he spots Ken approaching. He doesn't really look all that excited about this, but then, he's never enjoyed watching other people playing sports.]

"Yo."

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

[Ken comes over and sets his stuff down.]

Hey, didn't think you'd go through with it.

[child-abuser.livejournal.com]

Hey, if there's a chance you'd sign on for blitz if I showed up here, I gotta take it. It'd be pretty damn awesome to have two full teams. Then we could actually have some real games for a change.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

I dunno, it's going to take a lot to convince me. Soccer's my sport ya know? Besides, a lot of kids seemed really excited for it.

[child-abuser.livejournal.com]

Just wait. You'll come around.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Hah, maybe. Maybe I'll just come watch you from time to time.

[child-abuser.livejournal.com]

Audience is good too, I guess. Gotta have two full teams first, though.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

True [Starts warming up, juggling his own ball] Audiences do make it fun, with the cheering and stuff.

[child-abuser.livejournal.com]

"Okay, let's see what you can do."

[Sets his ball down and folds his arms.]

"Impress me."

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Well, whaddya wanna see? [Grins and looks at him curiously].

Gonna play me or do you just wanna see some tricks?

[child-abuser.livejournal.com]

Show me first, then we'll see.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

[[ooc: Man soccer's hard with one person XD]]

[Ken grins and nods, and starts going through his paces with the ball, yay former professional and the fact that he plays by himself a lot.]

[child-abuser.livejournal.com]

((Yeah, but Jecht's never played before and considers it lowering himself~ XD))

"Huh... I don't see why everyone kept sayin' blitzball was like soccer. This doesn't look the same at all."

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

[He shrugs]

I dunno, but people say soccer's like a lot of stuff, I think its the whole messing with balls thing.

[child-abuser.livejournal.com]

Lemme see your goal shot.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Sure. [And so he makes the goal shot. On his team so long ago, he was mainly goalie, but he was a decent forward too]

[child-abuser.livejournal.com]

"Hmm. Pretty strong kick, but you gotta jazz it up if you really wanna draw the crowds."

[Grins, kicking his blitzball around on the sidelines.]

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Jazz it up? Come on! That was a good solid goal, you up the chance of missing if you add some stupid ornamentals to it.

Fine, show me, you do better mister.

[child-abuser.livejournal.com]

"Can't you use your hands in soccer, right? Okay, then."

[Jecht runs out onto the field, dribbling the ball back and forth for a while before lining up a shot, kicking the ball very solidly into the goalpost. It looks at first like the shot has missed the mark, but it bounces back. Grinning, he catches the ball with his foot on the rebound, kicking it straight up into the air. Then, with a mighty vault, he flips backward and bicycle kicks the ball into the goal with as much force as his legs can muster, landing in a crouching position.]

"There. That's how you shoot a goal."

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

[He snorts, but he's vastly amused]

And I would have blocked that with a blind fold on. You make too much noise!

[child-abuser.livejournal.com]

Works just fine in the blitz arena. Don't see why it wouldn't work here too.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Maybe you never played against a decent goalie. But enough about your short comings, lets go see what you're good at.
