So I got an email from Coach this morning asking me to meet him when I got through with classes. Pretty much guaranteed I wasn't really paying attention in anything--'xcept Comparative Anatomy 'cause we were dissecting a calf--and I couldn't really tell you whether I dawdled or I raced over to the fieldhouse where he's got his office, 'cause from ( Read more... )

It's okay that you were late, there's still plenty.

Are you unhappy being off forward lock, or is it an okay change? I know that the game means a lot to you.

Y'know, honest, I think it's gonna be better this way. Dunno if you remember, but I actually started playing winger--just moved to lock my senior year 'cause we didn't have anybody else who could do a good job, so that's what I was playing when they recruited me. I reckon I did a pretty good job as lock, but Coach's right; I'm small (bad for a forward) and I'm fast (good for a back) and if I can get my handling skills back up to par this summer, I'm betting I could give any guy in the region a good run for his money.

I'm working on one-handed catches now, if you're worried about the thumping or anything.

Well, I'm good, as long as you're happy. If you want, I could throw the ball for you. I'm not too great at it but I'll help you practice.

Sure, that'd be cool. You don't need to be good, really--just kinda toss it, and I gotta catch it with either hand while running.

...Might be kinda late for it, though. Pretty sure the neighbors are gonna get pissed.

I'm glad it's only a change in position, and this way you'll be able to better adapt yourself to your spot. S'long as you're still happy, Kiib.

Dude, you're not nearly as glad as I am. Thought for a while there I was gonna get kicked and lose my scholarship and have to run off with Akamaru for the Northwest Territories.

Tch, you kidding me? Your couch would have to be crazy to kick you.

AWESOME. You play, too?

(I...dunno. Weird if we aren't 'cause I've seen you around. But I'm Kiba, number 9. Or 10 or 11 now, if you're going by the jersey I haven't got yet.)

No, but I can tackle.

(Well, now we are.)

Six inches is quite a size difference. I'm sure you'll do well in either position, though.

Please don't talk about soccer like that...

Yeah, I've always been shorter than the other forwards I've played against. And the guys on my team, come to think of it. I play hard and I jump high though, so I can do my job...but really I think this is gonna be a good move for me.

Y'know what the worst thing you can say to a rugby ref is? "You're calling this game like it's SOCCER!"

I just wanted to let you know that the crisis was averted. The paint chip fell out on its own.

How was your exam?
