Round 1

[boxingemperor]

Who: Akihiko Sanada, friends, and you!
Where: Dormitory, perhaps eventually around the city. Backdated before the Coming of Age event.
Summary: Akihiko gets reacquainted with a semi-normal life, a new body,...and maybe some real food.
Warnings: Language?


After a few days cooped up in the hospital, Akihiko was finally released under the promise that he would return regularly for a checkup. Compared the many checkups he'd had six months prior, he was more than happy to oblige. (Hopefully Hinoto-Ri's hospital wouldn't send out people to drag him back there for them.)

He steps outside of the dormitory, idly touching at his neck and taking a deep breath. It's nice to be outdoors. He can't wait to start running again! Maybe he could try jogging to start? Or-maybe not yet. He loses his footing for a moment, but swiftly grabs the railing of the staircase.

"Ha! No harm done. I wonder if there's a ramen place nearby."

"As long as Jiji doesn't find out I'm taking you somewhere since you're supposed to be in your bed sleeping and resting."

What do you mean being irresponsible? She knew the Sanada spirit all to well, however, and being told to stay put was secretly code word for 'unless you can't move your legs, you go outside and work those troubles out.'

She also knew she didn't want to force him back into bed anyway. It was too good to have him back.

"I know a place nearby so we won't have to walk for long."

"There's plenty of time to rest later." He playfully argued, finishing his descent down the stairs. Moving around should be a good thing, right? Everything improves with practice, and he could handle a few tumbles and spills.

"A ramen shop within walking distance? That's better than back home."

[helenchanted]

"Yeah, yeah I know." She had to laugh at that since that had been her own excuse before. They only had one life to live, why stand idle around it, right?

"It's pretty good too!" she added, walking close to him so he could use her as a clutch if he needed it. "There's a few chicken-based ones that I really like."

[boxingemperor]

He didn't need the support, but took it anyway. It was reassuring to know that she really was there, and that this wasn't a horrible nightmare.

So his sister liked chicken? Interesting. Aki was still set in his ways. "I'm craving a beef bowl. I feel like I could eat a few right now."
