So it seems that endless pestering does work. Sanada, welcome to the wonderful world of socialising on the internet. I congratulate you on actually listening to my reasons and I also applaud you for lasting this long.

In other words, Wimbledon is going well. I beat Del Potro today in the quarterfinals but his growth from last year is quite extraordinary. In any case, it looks like we will be facing each other after all, Echizen. I'll see you there.

I'm receiving help. I understand now, one left click. There's no need to send Niou after me.

I feel restless with too much downtime.

And of course I have faith in you. I'm not stupid.

[tennis-no-ko.livejournal.com]

Niou's probably a better teacher than me, though. Actually, I'll be getting computer lessons from him once the tournament season is over. I don't know much about actual coding and more intricate details beyond how to use a computer ^^;

Too much is bad for anyone, but a little will never hurt. Once I'm back in Japan, I'm taking you clubbing or something. Or something more tame, the media will probably have a field day if I go clubbing....

[kobanemperor.livejournal.com]

I suppose someone should make sure I don't make this thing explode.

Clubbing?!

Tamer, please. I'm not going to go clubbing.

[tennis-no-ko.livejournal.com]

That's a good idea. Though I believe computers are slightly more resilient than that. The only way you could kill it, is if you took a katana to it.

A pachinko parlour? Perhaps an onsen then? Or the theatre. Or maybe even a game of tennis? I do hope that you haven't gotten too rusty, Sanada.

[kobanemperor.livejournal.com]

Or slamming your fists into a laptop when it starts buzzing at you.

Well, of course I'll play tennis. And anything else besides clubbing would be fine, too.

[tennis-no-ko.livejournal.com]

Well yes, that too. But I wouldn't. It hurts too much when it does happen ^^; What do you mean, that's from prior experience? <<;

Good ^_^ We shall either play tennis or I shall take you to a theatre. I'll let you know closer to that date. ...And does that mean clubbing would be alright at a later date? Because I know this place....

[kobanemperor.livejournal.com]

Yes it does.

No! No clubbing! Not now, not ever!

[tennis-no-ko.livejournal.com]

*laughs* Just a joke, Sanada. I shall have my clubbing adventures with Akaya or Shiraishi-kun, perhaps.

I have missed having proper conversations with you ^^ Now I just need to find Jackal and Renji again....

[kobanemperor.livejournal.com]

I've missed it as well.

I haven't heard from anyone in a while. I hope they are well.

[tennis-no-ko.livejournal.com]

Niou and Yagyuu are doing well. They're dating now, I do believe. Not that it's much of a surprise. Niou's searching for his little brother...but it isn't going so well. Yagyuu's going through university to get his degree for being a psychologist or a psychiatrist. I get so mixed up between those two terms ^^;

Akaya's studying as well, to get his vet degree. he's working at a local clinic, I believe. And Marui's cafe is doing marvellously. His pastries are simply amazing~!

[kobanemperor.livejournal.com]

Everyone is keeping busy, I see. I'm a little surprised to hear about Niou and Yagyuu...

His brother? What happened?

And Akaya working with animals...hm. I didn't see that coming.

[tennis-no-ko.livejournal.com]

Yes, life is very busy nowadays ^_^ But I think we established that you are romantically clueless weren't focusing on romance during our schooling period, so I think it was obvious if you were looking.

Niou's little brother was taken away by their parents sometime during middle school, and Niou has no idea where he is. Now that he's an adult and his little brother will also be an adult this year, he's trying to find him. I admit, it seems like trying to find a needle in a haystack and can only sympathise for Niou.

Well, neither did many people, but he knows what he's doing. I'm proud of what he's been doing. And I'm pretty sure he's got an admirer in the form of Krauser-kun, as well ^_^

[kobanemperor.livejournal.com]

You're right. I guess if I was thinking in a romantic sense, I might have seen it.

Ah... I see. I hope he find him.

I'm glad Akaya's found something he's good at.

[tennis-no-ko.livejournal.com]

Maybe so.

So do I. I only wish I could do more to help......

Sanada! Akaya was good at plenty of things! Like making you angry.

[kobanemperor.livejournal.com]

I know that! I meant I'm glad he found something that he's good at that he wanted to do for a living!

[tennis-no-ko.livejournal.com]

Just checking....*sighs* We really need to speak in person. I'm missing far too many verbal cues in your voice. *facepalm*

[kobanemperor.livejournal.com]

Don't be concerned about that for now. Focus on winning.

[tennis-no-ko.livejournal.com]

I have far too many reasons to win this Grand Slam. I won't lose this one, Genichirou. Pinky promise.

[kobanemperor.livejournal.com]

Ah. I'm glad to hear that.
