[Suikoden II] Like a Punch
Title: Like a Punch
Fandom: Suikoden II
Characters: Wakaba, Nanami
Word Count: 213
Summary: Wakaba doesn't know why Oulan makes her feel this way.
Wakaba's not normally very shy, but something about Oulan makes her heart go like they're already fighting, sending little shivers of excitement down Wakaba's spine so that nonsense spills out over her tongue but she can't spit out what she really wants. She channels it into training, instead; Nanami's a decent enough partner, though she's not really into barehanded fighting, and Wakaba likes having the competition as they do their exercises together.
But Oulan. Wakaba does situps sometimes in bed when she can't sleep and thinks about what it would feel like to catch one of Oulan's punches in her hand, how it would feel to have her catch one of Wakaba's kicks. If she'd be able to. Wakaba thinks so; she's fast, but Oulan's got more years of training. She's more solid than Wakaba, and she doesn't even need gloves when she punches.
"Hey, Nanami," she says one morning. "I want to spar with you."
Nanami mostly just looks confused. "Huh? Huh? Aren't we sparring already?"
Wakaba gets a good kick in while Nanami's distracted, but Nanami's quick enough to hop back, so neither of them take a hit. "I know! I'm practicing!"
"Practicing for what?" Nanami demands, but Wakaba doesn't answer. She's going to work this one through on her own.

I love the idea of Wakaba doing situps in bed and practicing her smooooooth sparring pick-up lines on a puzzled Nanami and pffff. ♥
