Branching Out (for APlaying)

[CaptainL]

Now that both of them were in the ring, Yuna was eager to see what else Garlim had in store to offer her. So far, what she'd seen of the girl had told her she could well prove herself to be a worthy opponent, and Yuna couldn't wait to put that to the test. But what Garlim was telling her now was only going to whet her appetite even further! It seemed that the blonde had caught on to Yuna's quip about taking her down with a breast smother - and she too was willing to boast of what she could do with her substantial bust!

Yuna's eyes went a little wider as she leaned in toward Garlim. "Oh, my," she mused. "I see this won't be your first rodeo, then. Color me intrigued! If your chest has such a record to its name, I think it'll offer a worthy match for mine...and it'll be a match to remember, either way!" She winked, sauntering a little closer, and she nodded to Garlim as she described her strength as well. Everything Yuna was hearing about this woman just seemed to get better and better. She was strong, beautiful, curvaceous, and willing to use all of those things to her advantage. She could really give Yuna a run for her money - and Yuna wasn't going to run away from a challenge like that!

But it was right then, as Garlim flexed her muscles, that her body seemed to change right before Yuna's eyes - going rigid and well-defined! The brunette's jaw dropped at the sight of her foe. She'd never seen anything quite like it! Yuna thought Garlim had been a good match for her, up to this point - but now, she was showing another side of her entirely. But one that would be just as exciting to face off against nonetheless, Yuna soon reminded herself! Yuna wasn't afraid to take on more muscular women, like the Black Lioness. They'd just offer her a different kind of challenge!

"Now that's impressive! I can't say I can do that...but I'm still ready to take you on!" Yuna said. She sank down into a stance, raising her hands as she narrowed her eyes on Garlim. She knew that trying to overpower her in a test of strength, when she had seen her muscular physique, would be hopeless - so instead, Yuna would take off running, attempting to catch Garlim off-guard with her charge as she tried to ram her chest into the blonde's own, striking like a bulldozer!

[APlaying]

When Yuna joked that it wouldn't be the first time Garlim would use her breast, the blonde blushed a little embarrassed, certainly it could be a little extravagant this method of submission, but thanks to her complexion it was a feasible method for her. This kind of detail is not something she likes to emphasize often, but Yuna's company was very warm, and the compliments about her physique only made her feel a little more embarrassed. But before she could say anything, Yuna took advantage of the fact that the powerful blonde ended up letting her guard down and eagerly lunged at her.

Garlim's eyes widened as Yuna's large figure loomed over her and with no time to dodge, she was rammed by the woman causing her to stagger and her large bust was crushed against Yuna's. The blonde goddess tried to hold her ground by planting her feet firmly on the canvas, trying to suddenly compete Yuna's pressure with her own chest.

The woman of little more than a hundred kg was a problem for Garlim, standing up was extremely difficult in these circumstances, and she was not usually taken by surprise. Yuna indirectly or directly knew how to take advantage of her charms, and slowly Garlim was overwhelmed little by little, but she did not want to fall without trying to maintain control, so she gave Yuna a gentle hug to quickly move behind the back of her adversary. There she would seek to press her soft midsection and slowly bring her to her knees, while her bust pressed gently against Yuna's back and her thighs trembled a little with each step.

[CaptainL]

From the moment they had first made contact, Yuna was sure that she and Garlim were going to get along swimmingly. The blonde seemed like a nice girl thus far - and she was even more intrigued by the thought of them pitting their physiques against one another in what was sure to be a well-matched and exciting spar. Yuna always enjoyed going up against women of similar build to her, and the fact that Garlim seemed so willing to do so only made things even better. She could respect that! But just because Yuna respected Garlim didn't mean she was going to hold back - as a matter of fact, as soon as their spar had begun, Yuna quickly ran in toward her, throwing her whole body weight against her like a battering ram! Yuna had been looking to use her sheer body mass to her advantage, gathering all that force behind her charge. And so far, it seemed to be working, as Garlim began to stagger backward!

She didn't go down, though. That as much, Yuna wasn't surprised by. Garlim seemed strong, after all; she was already sure it would take more than that to do some real damage. She kept pushing her weight against Garlim to try and steer her around. But then, Garlim managed to circle around her, going to exert some control around Yuna from behind! The brunette had already begun to set up another shove, so she stormed forward only to hit thin air as Garlim slipped off to the side. That left Yuna skidding to a halt, forced to grind her heels into the mat to prevent herself from veering off course. And she had no time to correct course before Garlim slung her arms around her, gaining enough control over her to force her to her knees!

"Gah-!" Yuna let out a gasp as she was forced to the ground. She could feel Garlim's weight pressing up against her from behind - as she felt the softness of her bust against her back, her cheeks flushed with warmth, but she wouldn't let that stop her for long. Yuna knew she would need to keep up the fight! And she would quickly set her sights on taking charge of the leverage that existed between the two of them - she ducked her head down, attempting to throw the center of balance forward and bowl Garlim over her back!

[APlaying]

The blush became more evident as the blonde goddess slowly subdued Yuna until she was on her knees, the soft contact of her body against her opponent's felt quite comfortable, she could even lie down to sleep on Yuna and she would feel quite comfortable. Garlim is very used to measure herself against muscular and robust girls, so it was a fresh and relaxing feeling to measure herself against a woman with a softer build.

Yuna would try to get out of the blonde goddess's grip by leaning her weight forward, perhaps looking to make her body weight enough to throw her opponent off balance. Garlim would notice this attempt, and even though Yuna's weight was considerable, the blonde goddess knew perfectly well how to block her attempt. She quickly grabbed one of Yuna's wrists and twisted her arm behind her back in a V-shape, at the same time gently sliding her other arm around Yuna's neck to tighten it and grab one of her shoulders to seal the grip.

Garlim applied the transition smoothly so as not to unnecessarily hurt her sparring partner, though she couldn't help but notice that even though Yuna claims to be a fighter, she wasn't standing out much as far as the technical side was concerned. Garlim started to peek his head over Yuna's shoulder and brought her lips close to her ear, almost being able to caress her "Are you okay lady? If you need help getting out of this situation, just ask" She said in a sweet and flirtatious way, as if seeking to relax Yuna.

[CaptainL]

Even if Garlim could've been lulled to rest against Yuna's body, she was by no means out of the action just yet. Yuna would discover that the hard way - when she tried to duck down, hoping to use the leverage of her hulking frame to toss Garlim over her back, the blonde managed to hold firm. Before she could be lifted off her feet, she grabbed Yuna's arm and twisted it behind her back to put her in a brutal hammerlock! Yuna threw her head back, bellowing in pain as the torque on her arm sent a sting through her nerves. Garlim's musclebound physique had led her to believe her opponent would pack a punch in terms of raw power, but as she was discovering, she was a skilled technical wrestler in her own right!

As Garlim began to lean in against Yuna's back, putting more and more pressure on her arm and spine, the brunette's teeth clenched tighter into a grimace. She tried to twist and turn, fighting to gain more control over the position, but she could barely budge with how firmly Garlim held her down. But even still, she wasn't giving up - and she would let Garlim know as much! "Just...you wait-!" she huffed under her breath, looking back over her shoulder to lock eyes with her foe.

Leaning back against Garlim with her full weight, Yuna would begin to rub and grind her hips into the blonde's own, massaging her body against her own curves. Hopefully, with enough force brought against her, Garlim would have no choice but to back off.

[APlaying]

Garlim smiled excitedly at Yuna's response, highlighting a little more in passing her reddened cheeks, she was glad to see that despite her age, Yuna certainly had a competitive character. Although she didn't seem like the type to train from a very young age for this kind of contact sport, she clearly wasn't lying when she mentioned that she had joined at a certain point. Garlim would feel her heart beating faster and faster, even with age, she saw good potential in her to become stronger, maybe she just had to encourage her to develop better in a fight measuring herself against someone experienced. Luckily, the blonde goddess is someone very experienced in technique.

As Yuna tried to push her with her hips, Garlim bent down a bit more and planted one of her knees on the canvas for support, having her thick thighs wrapped around Yuna's hips. Perhaps she could transition to a body scissors, but she was more interested in teaching her a better way out of this situation. "Heeh, aah... You push pretty good, you look like you know how to use your attributes, you should just try it in a different way.... Pay close attention, just as you are pushing me right now, try to lean a little to the side, in a direction where you stretch your arm to release some tension." She whisper in Yuna's ear, and at that instant, slowly guide her upper body to the side where she can stretch her arm a little more.

"As you release the tension on your arm, slowly turn your body towards me while raising your free arm above my head. You will then have room to reverse your grip and counterattack me, grabbing my neck with your free arm, while pushing a little more in the process to release your restrained arm. And most faster you make the transition, better." She said clearly as she guided Yuna to the side, a way to teach her a counterattack for this kind of situation.

[CaptainL]

Garlim had managed to seize the advantage early on in this match - even if Yuna had tried to overpower her, she had still managed to maneuver around her and catch her in a firm hammerlock, wrenching back on her arm to twist it behind her back. But Yuna wasn't going to let that deter her. Garlim might have been strong, but if there was one thing Yuna took pride in, it was her size - and she knew how to use it! Surely, she thought, she had enough heft in her hips to serve as a counterweight; if she pushed herself back hard enough, she could trip Garlim up and force her to let go. It wasn't the most sophisticated or complex of moves, but Yuna had plenty of experience behind her to prove it could work!

However, Garlim too had a counter in mind! In pushing back at Garlim, Yuna had put herself into range - enough so that the blonde could throw her legs around her waist, hopping onto her back and squeezing! Yuna hissed through her teeth, feeling her back buckle against Garlim's weight - and as she pulled harder at her arm as well, the brunette found herself being torqued to the side!

At first, Yuna groaned in pain, her face contorting in a grimace as she was pulled this way and that. However, that was when she realized something. Garlim wasn't taunting her or boasting - as a matter of fact, she was giving Yuna advice. It seemed she hadn't forgotten that she was here to be an instructor. Yuna raised an eyebrow - she hadn't dealt with many opponents who would tell her how to get out of a hold as they were applying it! But Garlim's technical expertise did seem to be one area where there was a gap in Yuna's style. Filling that gap could only serve her well...

"Like...this, you say?" Following Garlim's directions, Yuna went to lean to the side, taking back some leverage with which to take back her arm. A smile came to her face as she did so - she was getting the hang of it! Once she was sure she had the right motion, she spun herself around, grabbing onto Garlim's neck in the process. "Ah, I get it-!" If that worked, Yuna saw how she could take advantage of that opportunity - she would lean back and try to hoist Garlim up into the air, hoping to get enough height on her to drop her down to the mat for a chokeslam!

[APlaying]

Garlim couldn't help but feel a little bad about treating Yuna like this, why did she have to squeeze a very cute little thing like her? But she told herself that learning through practice was the best way to get familiar with this kind of situation, and the blonde goddess would soon smile when she would feel her grip loosen as Yuna stretched out her arm. It even surprised her how quickly Yuna had caught on to the idea, it was obvious the woman had her experience behind her. “Alright, you're getting it! Keep going.” The blonde goddess encourages her training partner, guiding the brunette towards the turn. If she could keep guiding this hot-headed lass.... Maybe Yuna can even maintain position while taking advantage of her weight.

As Yuna wraps her arms around Garlim's neck, the blonde's eyes widen as she realizes what's about to happen. “Mmmhhmf!” Garlim unlike Yuna wasn't very familiar with wrestling moves, and besides she wasn't planning to avoid the move anyway. But she still couldn't help but be a little surprised at Yuna's move.

As soon as the grip on her neck became firmer, the blonde goddess hissed through her teeth as the brunette transitioned into a whip that made Garlim's world spin, just before she impacted backwards on the canvas causing her body to tremble. “OOHG!” Garlim's limbs lifted slightly before collapsing to the canvas, leaving the blonde goddess gasping after the hard impact.

[CaptainL]

Yuna nodded her head, smiling to Garlim's encouragement. It seemed she had caught on to whatever the blonde had wanted out of her - and maybe, then, she would be able to come away from this match with some lessons to grow on. Even though Garlim was nothing if not a majestically-built woman herself, Yuna still had plenty she could offer when it came to her size and weight, and she was learning to lean into that in her matches. In her previous match against the Black Lioness, Yuna had seen what her opponent could accomplish if she exploited her size advantage. Although Yuna had never been much of a specialist when it came to power moves, that was something she could do too.

And, sure enough, she managed to send Garlim straight down to the mat, throwing her against the canvas with a loud thud! It had been no small feat to lift a woman of Garlim's size - even now, Yuna could feel the aches and pains in her arm from the fatigue, and she needed to bend down, grabbing her knees and panting for breath. Even if she was as big as she was, Yuna was used to her curves being her weapon of choice, not her muscles. This was a step outside of her comfort zone, and it was one that had left her worn out. But it seemed like it had just as strong of an effect on her foe!

"How...was that?" Yuna flashed a smile to Garlim, however tired it might have been. She needed a couple more seconds to catch her breath, but she was curious to know what Garlim thought, all the same.

[APlaying]

As Garlim gasped and groaned as she sank to the canvas after the hard throw of this great amazon, Garlim was beside himself with joy, this woman quickly grasped the technique by simply explaining the simple execution. “That... That was a good counterattack.” Said the blonde goddess with genuine appreciation in her voice. “You've got some serious power there!” as she catches her breath, Garlim's eyes sparkle with excitement and a hint of competitive defiance.

Garlim groans as she turns to face the canvas and slowly sits down on her knees next to Yuna, one hand rubbing her lower back. “Girl... you give a wallop!” she laughs, shaking her head in disbelief at the sheer force Yuna had put behind that throw. “I haven't been thrown like that since my fight against Theodora” She said as she crawled a bit, circling Yuna with a smile on her lips until she stood in front of her partner.

“But don't be too cocky, big girl. While you know well how to use your weight offensively, you need to learn how to counterattack as well, because I notice you lack some technical skill. Any moderately experienced lightweight judoka could subdue you without any inconvenience. And believe me, it would be hard for you to come back.” Garlim's eyes narrow, a fire burning within them as she imagined how tough Yuna could be with good technique.

The war goddess really loves to take on tough girls, even softening her demeanor with people she respected as wrestlers, like her friend and bitter rival Ambre Brault. Where at first she despised her for being a mere professional wrestler, but after being defeated in every way by her, a genuine admiration and desire to beat her the next time they meet arose. “You may have size, but you have the technical quality of a mere novice, and size isn't everything. You're strong, but I'm faster and have more technical experience. What you just did was a simple counter-attack.... Hm... As I show you... Come to think of it...” Garlim leaned forward and crawled a little more until her face was inches away from Yuna. “What have been the opponents you've had the hardest time facing?” The blonde goddess asked curiously.
