Lost at the French Open

[tennis_no_ko]

Urrgh, lost to Echizen at the Roland Garros Finals. It was a good match though, five and a half hours and we played all five sets. 6-3, 4-6, 6-4, 3-6, 5-7, in Echizen's Favour. I've never played so well, not even against Djokovic. I'll beat you at Wimbledon though, Echizen.

Oh, and since I'm back in Japan now, does anyone want to go with me to the classical music concert at Tokyo Kōsei Nenkin Kaikan? I've heard that some amazing worldwide artists are there.

Indeed, I have found it to be so. He's a pouty loser, too.

Naturally, I have a large box. It enables me to invite guests like Kabaji who need more leg room. They are welcome to attend with you. Shall we do dinner first, do you think?

[tennis-no-ko.livejournal.com]

Dinner would be lovely. Do you have a particular place in mind? I'll pay since you're graciously offering your box to us.

Having recently returned from France...how about Italian? Find out what Yagyuu and Niou might like and I will pick something based on that?

[ooc: Yeah, dream on if you think you can get Atobe to let anyone else pay! He knows how much money he has!]

[tennis-no-ko.livejournal.com]

Italian sounds good. I don't think Yagyuu and Niou will have any problems, but I'll ask them ^_^

(ooc: Yukimura is a dreamer. And pretty scheming. He also feels bad, considering he's pretty darn rich too, from winning plenty of tournaments.)

[atoberex.livejournal.com]

Please do. I have one in particular in mind that is only a few minutes from the venue.

[ooc: Until Yukimura owns his own jet, Atobe will continue to buy dinner ;-) ]

Ahh, how convenient. Yagyuu and Niou don't have a problem. And uhhh...it seems like it's turning into a proper Rikkai event ^^;. Could Akaya also come? He'll wear a tuxedo and everything.

(ooc: Yukimura feels bad for having so many people tag along. But he doubts that he'll be able to beat Atobe's paying skills anymore XD)

Ahn? Akaya, hm? I'll have to remember to bring my pet hair roller then. Certainly, do bring him as well.

[ooc: It's all good. Atobe may have fun poking at the Donation Fairy during dinner though! :D]

[tennis-no-ko.livejournal.com]

...Pet hair roller. He's not quite that uncouth. now.

(ooc: Strikes firmly deleted. Atobe is welcome to poke fun, as long as Yukimura can politely insult him back.)

[atoberex.livejournal.com]

He does however work at a veterinary clinic and owns a large dog.

[ooc: Oh, the Donation Fairy thing is a private in-joke that actually Akaya isn't aware that Atobe is in on. In that his co-workers call Akaya that because ever since he started working there, he has but to mention a need on his blog and a very large anonymous donation shows up. The MRI machine was my favorite. Three guesses as to who the donor is? :D]

[tennis-no-ko.livejournal.com]

That's true.

(ooc: Oh. Okay XD, that makes a lot more sense. Aww, Atobe has a soft spot for Akaya.)

(ooc: Atobe prefers to think he has a soft spot for animals...but yeah. :D)
