VICTORY!

[tennis_no_ko]

YES! Wimbledon Championship! I beat Echizen. 7-5, 4-6, 6-3, 7-5. Looks like the scores evened out a little, Echizen. 5-4 now. I'll be looking forward to playing you again. I'll see you tonight at Alain Ducasse.
Atobe, I look forward to paying for once. Bunta, I'll be paying you a visit in about a week.

Thank you everybody, for all of your support. I can't tell you how much it means to me. I'm constantly overwhelmed by how you all honour me and place your faith in me.

Now excuse me while I go babble at my coach and sign stuff for fans....

EDIT: World Number 2 ATP Ranking! I think I might just die from happiness.

I knew you would win.

[tennis-no-ko.livejournal.com]

Thank you for your faith, Genichirou.

[kobanemperor.livejournal.com]

Like I said, it would be stupid not to have faith in you.

Will you be visiting home anytime soon?

[tennis-no-ko.livejournal.com]

Echizen had a strong chance of winning....but nevertheless, I am glad of my victory.

I'll be home on Tuesday morning. I suggested to Yagyuu that we could have a team dinner on Tuesday night? If that's okay with you?

[kobanemperor.livejournal.com]

Tuesday works for me, so long as it is after 6:00 PM.

[tennis-no-ko.livejournal.com]

That's fine. I'll be press-ganged into holding a press conference on Tuesday afternoon, anyway. Around 7:00pm we can meet?

Congratulations, Yukimura-kun! Will you be returning to Japan for a proper celebration soon?

[tennis-no-ko.livejournal.com]

Thank you, Yagyuu. I'll be heading home tomorrow afternoon. I'll probably arrive on Tuesday morning. Perhaps we can all go out for a dinner to celebrate on Tuesday?

[drvroom.livejournal.com]

That sounds like a marvelous plan. What time and do you have a specific place in mind?

[tennis-no-ko.livejournal.com]

7:00pm seems to work with Renji and Genichirou. I'll have to ask Bunta, Niou and Akaya, of course, but that seems to be the time.

As for place...I'm not fussy. I'll be going French this evening so maybe no French? Anything else will do. Do you know any good places? Money won't be an issue.

Don't worry about Masaharu, I will be sure to bring him along. I don't imagine he'll complain about it. Not that I don't have ways of convincing him, mind you.

[tennis-no-ko.livejournal.com]

Ahh, that's good~! It'll be good to see everybody together again. The only one who definitely can't make it is Jackal. (Where is that boy, darn it!)

Congratulations, Yukimura. I am looking forward to our outing.

Speaking of such things, I am flying home afterwards, would you care for a ride or are you more enamored of public transit?

[tennis-no-ko.livejournal.com]

Thank you Atobe. I look forward to it as well.

I've already bought tickets...but I must say, that I'd prefer to take a private ride. I always end up close to screaming children on these plane journeys.

[atoberex.livejournal.com]

Dinner first?

I assure you, there are no screaming children on my jet.

[tennis-no-ko.livejournal.com]

Sure, that sounds good. Just, uhh...not French this time, please.

And that I why I will be taking you up on your kind offer, since I would like to sleep and get the time difference out of the way.

[atoberex.livejournal.com]

How do you feel about German food?

I will let the stewards know to expect your luggage, then.

[shutter-chance.livejournal.com]

My heartfelt congratulations, Yukimura. ^_^

[tennis-no-ko.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much, Fuji-kun! I'll bring you your cacti on Wednesday?

[tokukazu.livejournal.com]

Congratulations, Yukimura. Your win motivates me to do more training and crush you

[tennis-no-ko.livejournal.com]

Well, I'll be seeing you at the US Open then, Tokugawa.

[demoneyesakaya.livejournal.com]

Congrats, Buchou! I knew you would beat the little shrimp!

[tennis-no-ko.livejournal.com]

Thank you, Akaya. I'm grateful for your faith in me. ^_^ Will you be coming to our dinner tonight to celebrate?

[demoneyesakaya.livejournal.com]

Of course! :D I'd never miss it!

[tennis-no-ko.livejournal.com]

Good, I'll look forward to seeing you again. No need for a tux this time ~_^

Regarding Genichirou, he's sort of freaking out about dinner. Can you try not to antagonise him too much? I know this applies to Bunta more than it does to you but he's almost cancelled once and I'm not risking the chance that he'll do the ignore thing again, okay?
