Sango | Inuyasha

[taijiya_legacy]

[Prose]

She wasn't much for the weight training anymore, given her ability, but there was still plenty for her to do in the gymnasium. Sports were always fun, after all.

Currently, she was practicing her three-pointers. But not from the three-point line. That would be too easy. No, she was clear on the other side of the court, next to the ball rack. She gaged the location of the hoop, and let the ball free.

Said ball sailed over the expanse of the court . . . and bounced off the rim. Oh, well. So her aim wasn't perfect yet. That was something to work on.

[Here, network: have an offended Sango trying to hold in her temper. Considering how much she's scowling, she may not be having a lot of success.]

I'd really prefer to get a new lab partner for chem class. I'm going to wind up killing my current excuse of one if he keeps hitting on me. If anybody else needs a partner, please step up; I can't deal with this guy anymore.

[wisecracked]

Kenzi had been sleeping between rows on the stands. Odd place to sleep but hey she was tired and she needed a nap. However dreamland was disturbed by the sound of someone shooting hoops.

With a groan the dark haired girl pulled herself and looked around the gym. She watched as Sango's shot bounced off the rim and couldn't help but clap.

"Damn close!" she called down from her perch.

[taijiya_legacy]

She was mildly startled at the sudden applause. She hadn't thought anyone else was in here. Huh. How had she missed that, anyway? Well, maybe the other girl had just come in.

"Yeah, I'm getting better at this distance. Getting it far enough isn't an issue; just need to work on my aim a bit."

Sango was a good shot, in general. Just not a perfect one; it wasn't anything she couldn't work on, and she of anyone didn't mind hard work.

"Did you just come in here? Sorry I didn't notice; I was a bit in the zone."

[wisecracked]

Kenzi focused on one of the balls and sent it back across the court where it settled back on the rack. "I was sleeping up here." she responded with a yawn.

She did the same with another ball as she stood and began to make her way down the bleachers. "The aim is always the hardest part." She squinted over at the far hoop and attempted to send one of the balls through it without actually guiding it through the hoop.

She missed by at least a foot.

[taijiya_legacy]

Sango blinked. "You were sleeping in here?"

Why would anyone even try to sleep in the gym? It was a place that was bound to get noisy or crowded or both. She'd seen people having naps on the roof, or in the nearby woods, and she could at least see some sense in that. Her mind was having difficulty trying to compute this one.

She would have apologized for disturbing the girl, but she watched with interest as her powers were displayed. Sure, she missed by quite a margin, but that was still impressive, in Sango's mind.

"Oh, you're telekinetic? That's always seemed like such a useful power, to me."

[wisecracked]

Kenzi nodded as she brought the ball back to her. "Yeah. No one was around and I was attempting to study but then I kind of dozed off." Study? Yeah right. She had been watching some movie on her phone.

She squinted across the court and sent the ball flying again. This time it hit the backboard and bounced to the ground, causing her to scowl.

"It's pretty useful. What's your power?"

[taijiya_legacy]

Sango picked up another ball, aiming a bit more carefully this time. And that care was so close to being rewarded when her shot hit the backboard and bounced out a few inches away from the hoop. Always just on the edge of getting it.

"Nothing flashy, honestly. Enhanced strength and endurance. Bit of an accelerated healing factor."

She'd never been one to wish that her power was something more visually impressive. Her ability could get the job done. What more did she need than that?

[wisecracked]

Well she was doing better than Kenzi. Without using her TK she couldn't get the ball to actually go in the hoop. That might be partially due to the fact her vision isn't that great.

"Definitely useful." Sure she could, seemingly, increase her strength and endurance but it's wasn't something natural. "Always wished I had healing. Can't tell you how many times that would have come in handy."

[taijiya_legacy]

And partially due to the fact that Sango had been a star athlete since her childhood. Aiming from this great a distance was something new to get used to, but she had a good base to work with.

Her look softened into something more thoughtful at those words. For an advanced healing factor to be considered so handy . . . that had to be rough.

"Pretty dangerous where you came from?"

[wisecracked]

Kenzi gave a shrug as she sent a couple balls up into the air where they started doing figure eights. "You could say that."

I need a chem partner. My current one is inadequate.

[taijiya_legacy]

Really? What's the issue with yours?

[revolting_development]

Not sexual harassment. Just general stupidity.

[taijiya_legacy]

[She huffs a little at the reminder of her current partner. If the guy "accidentally" brushes his hand over her chest while reaching for something one more time . . .]

Lucky for just general stupidity. I'm about ready to piledrive the lech I'm working with at the moment. [This, sadly, is not hyperbole.]

Anyway, I take chem pretty seriously, and it's one of my better classes. You wouldn't have to worry about stupidity from me.

[revolting_development]

And I keep my hands to myself, so you don't need to worry about that.

So, we both meet with the professor, I guess? To make the switch?

[taijiya_legacy]

Well good. I'd hate to be tempted to hurt anyone else.

Yeah. If we could get it done before the next lab assignment, that'd be for the best. And I suppose that would leave our two problem people being forced to team up. Can't say that I'm sorry about it.

[Quite the contrary, actually. She sounds a little amused.]

[revolting_development]

[Dryly.] My partner was a boy, so unless yours felt so inclined....

[taijiya_legacy]

Well, you never know. He could literally be the type that hits on anything that moves. I wasn't exactly inclined to initiate conversation with him other than to order him to stop touching me, so I can't be sure.

[revolting_development]

Shame his mutation does nothing to complicate his touch....

[taijiya_legacy]

Hmph. Tell me about it.

ahhhh a Sango!! <3

[lookalikes]

"Nice shot, Sango! I'm sure you'll be able to make it in no time."

Kagome happened to be wandering through when she spotted Sango. She'd stayed quiet through the shot, not wanting to startle her friend, but the other girl did deserve praise for the attempt.

It's very tentative; haven't read/watched the series in a while. :)

[taijiya_legacy]

She looked up when she heard Kagome's voice. She hadn't seen her come in, but she got in a zone sometimes when she was doing sports. That probably wasn't a good thing, to get so unaware of her surroundings. Could be dangerous out in the real world.

A smile did cross her lips at the praise, though. It was always nice to hear, and Kagome always meant it. "Thanks. Just a bit more practice, and I think I'll get it."

Pffft (And she's keeping it video)

[taijiya_legacy]

[Give her a minute. She needs to look at this really, really hard to figure out what it says. And when she does, she just . . . blinks. That's a good way to diffuse her irritation; confusing her. Though she does sound genuinely apologetic.]

Um . . . I'm sorry?

[Another blink.] Why do stuffed animals need a trigger warning?

[ Have a very kind, if slightly teasing, smile directed at you. You might recognize this person, perhaps even from your own chemistry class, but the person you've seen is more than likely his twin since Yuui is still very new to the school. ]

Ah... your parter's name wouldn't happen to be Fai, would it? If it is, I'm really very sorry for his behaviour. And if not, well you probably should accept him as a parter if he shouldn't volunteer.

I'm afraid I'm not very good with chemistry myself. He is but... well... flirting is sort of his default so he'll probably do it without even trying to.
