@shoryucannon.bsky.social “Oh, hey! How’re you enjoying the game? I found a machine for it at the arcade but — it’s really hard to get combos going on it…”

“It probably was. Akira and I, we’re friends. I guess the question is now if you two are…”

@rammuaypreecha.bsky.social “Uh, the arcade’s closed for tonight. I’m just locking up.” The tomboyish fighter would explain as she faced the other, doing just as she said she was doing. Her first night shift — and probably not the last explanation she’d give out.

While the name was… strange, Sakura raised a brow and went a bit more relaxed with her body’s positioning, seeing his knife pocketed. “Sakura.”

“Traveling the world, getting into tough fights! I don’t really see him a lot, but he sends me a lot of advice over the internet!” Sakura explains with a little wave of her hand. Though she presses a hand close to her chest, knowing his resolve is set just as hers should be. “Someday, I’m gonna -

“Yeah, that’s definitely Ryu! He’s the coolest ever, and I’m training to be just like him! Heheh-!” It felt like she could talk about her mentor day and night, but, gaining at least a little bit of self-awareness back, she introduced herself before she got carried away. “Name’s Kasugano Sakura!”

“So… do you.” That grin gave all kinds of weird vibes to the blooming fighter. She backed up slightly, on her guard, just in case she needed to spring into action. “What’s your name?”

“Then you must know my sensei! I mean, how could you not?! He’s only the best fighter in the whole world!” Her confusion made a drastic switch into pride and enthusiasm! A rush of energy leapt into her as she threw punches at the air, striking a tough pose to copy the spirit of her inspiration!

@cosmicvirtuosoc.bsky.social “Ooh, you painting something?” Sakura tilted her head, interested in the other’s craft. It was always nice to see an artist gaining some inspiration from the world around them. Maybe her fighting spirit did just the same for him—?

“I-I dunno… But you definitely don’t look like anyone I’ve ever met before on account of… all that…” Sakura made a little invisible outline with her finger, gesturing to Rock’s armor, shape, pretty much everything that made him stand out. He looked like some kind of mascot.

“What’s that supposed to mean? Are you just saying stuff because it sounds cool?” Sakura gave a suspicious squint as if she were not guilty of the very same crime countless times before, especially while emulating a certain world warrior.

“Wh-… Were you taking a nap?” . . . 💧 Could have fooled her. Maybe that ‘cool’ and ‘mysterious’ demeanor was actually just a nice trick for falling asleep with your eyes open…

@dontcallhimeiji.bsky.social “Mm-? Whatcha staring at?” Sakura’s water break has been interrupted. Clad in a tanktop, some shorts, and her signature converse, she spots someone watching her… Kinda rude to drop in uninvited…

@variableweapons.bsky.social “You kinda look… familiar…” The tomboy tilts her head and gives his metallic physique a hard look. It feels like they must have met somewhere before. But the memories are so fuzzy in her head… Maybe from a passing glance?

@aoihimezaki.bsky.social “You gonna start teasing me again? I’ve got training to do, so I don’t have time for games!” She puffed out her chest a little, trying to seem as tough as she could. Martial arts was her ultimate focus right now. Not getting….. poked fun at.

“I’m trying to figure that out myself. Some days, he’s trying to fight me, some days it’s just random advice.” Sakura gives a shrug and shakes her head. Sometimes it was just impossible to get a read on the guy. But it was impossible to dismiss his passion. “It’s weird!”

𝔹𝕝𝕠𝕠𝕞𝕚𝕟𝕘 ✿ 𝔽𝕚𝕘𝕙𝕥𝕖𝕣 @ganbarusakura.bsky.social · 08/01/2025

“That’s… O-Okay, I’ll watch my guard.” That was……. pretty much the simplest advice he could possibly give out. Sakura wondered if he pulled that out of a pamphlet or something. “I guess I could use the money too…”

𝔹𝕝𝕠𝕠𝕞𝕚𝕟𝕘 ✿ 𝔽𝕚𝕘𝕙𝕥𝕖𝕣 @ganbarusakura.bsky.social · 08/01/2025

“Uh huh! It pays pretty well. I’m just kinda torn. It’s starting to take up a lot of valuable training time…” Sakura looks partially ashamed, like even in the smallest way, she has let her idol down. Her next sigh is particularly heavy, expelling the warrior’s burden.

@zugaikotsubaika.bsky.social “Hey, Akira! It’s been a while, huh? You’ve been keeping busy?” Her spunky attitude is fully on display as a hand lands assertively on her hip. The other holds a water bottle — possibly to hydrate herself up after a workout… …or a fight…

“Oh… I thought it just kinda… hopped across the board and stuff? Eheh… Okay, so… it’d be a little more like this?” Sheepishly, she moves the knight in that ‘L-direction’ he spoke of. It’s not the brightest move but at least she knows how it works now.

“I’ve gotten plenty stronger! You can count on that! I’ve even been spicing up my fighting style too!” Sakura had been training to the max as always. Even as the years went by, she always retained her burning motivation for the art of fighting. And just a few of her quirks too…!

Little does he know, he’s the very thing that’s got her so excited. A bend of the knees, arms locked together — she’s in fangirl mode again. “Ryu! It feels like it’s been forever! You get into any tough fights recently?! Learn any new skills?!”

“You know it!” She taps her converse against the concrete with a smidge of attitude, swinging her arms back and forth as if getting ready for a fight. But she relaxes and gives a friendly nod to the fighter. “I’m glad everyone got out of that okay though.”

“R-Right! Of course…” What was he going on about…? Every ‘teaching’ made a little less sense than the last… Should a warrior this ‘attentive’ all the time? Maybe it made a little sense… “So, uh… what can I do to improve… sensei?”

“Y-Yeah… Whatever you say…” A quick roll of her eyes, although, maybe she should humor him? After all, Dan wasn’t a bad guy and it did make him feel really happy to think he was a master like Ryu. “And… what kind of sneak attack should I be prepared for…?”

“But this is my house…. I didn’t come out here to show up for anything…..” Sakura would mumble underneath her breath, knowing even if she spoke louder, her explanation would go under deaf ears. Dan-san really was in his own world sometimes…

“Huh?? Oh!! Yeah, you!” Sakura nervously rubbed the back of her head, feeling a little like a dummy for not recollecting their street fight. She’d never forget a face! Well, on a good day. “Hope you’re doin’ okay!”
