Fox on the Run

[BlackAkuma]

A small, growing part of Theo was considering just calling this whole thing off as a wash. He was getting uncomfortable, and he didn’t want that to wash off on Kasumi. She seemed nice enough. Fun and flirty. The main thing keeping him at the moment was a Sunk Cost Fallacy. He’d already invested hard into this, so he might as well see it through, right?

He perked up, however, when she mentioned that she was a wrestler, too. That was surprising, but frankly, not as surprising as it should’ve been - he’d already come across other wrestlers in the wild. LAW’s roster was huge, it was inevitable.

”Oh, wow, really?” He gave a quick look over and nodded. She had the body for it, at least. ”Should’ve known. How long have you been into it?”

[ZorzLeth]

Kasumi picked up on Theo's uneasiness, but figured he was staying to not make things awkward. That was when she figured about what to do to make him feel more comfortable and help him enjoy the experience. As she would talk to him, she would reach out and gently hold his wrists. Then, encouragingly, she brought his hands to rest on her waist, and left them there; allowing him to move his arms on her or hold her as he saw fit.

"I've been in LAW for a short while now." Kasumi replied, as she kept her focus on Theo's eyes and trying to keep him more calm and engaged with the situation.

"How about yourself?" she would then ask Theo.

[BlackAkuma]

It was funny how a little thing like having a common could put you at ease, but that was exactly what was happening to Theo, here. Kasumi, being part of the same company, gave him some foundation, enough that he barely even notice as his hands were brought around her waist. This was comfortable.

”For a little while, yeah. Me and my partner-” He shook his head. ”My band. We came out for some gigs and joined up. Doing a few theme songs and wrestling, too. It’s been…”

He grimaced as he tried to think of the right way to put it. ”...an experience. We lose more than we win. Haven’t won yet at all, really.” This was turning into a downer fast. He lit up and looked her way. ”What about you? Having some luck in the ring?”

[ZorzLeth]

Kasumi had ensured that Theo's hands were secured on her waist, as she gently placed her hands on his biceps. She gave a gentle, encouraging rub to help ease his tensions.

"I've only just started getting some matches." Kasumi admitted, "Had a win so far." She whipped her hair around, so that a good chunk of it covered the right side of her face as she gave him a warm smile.

"Don't lose heart, I'm sure you'll score big." Kasumi then said sincerely, but also with a small hint of seduction if Theo didn't catch onto it.

[BlackAkuma]

Theo perked up at the mention of her having a win, though he regretted the reflex. He didn’t know Kasumi, didn’t know her style, didn't know what she was like in a match. Maybe she was really good. She certainly had the body for it.

”Thanks. I, uh, don’t share your confidence, but I appreciate the thought, really.” He laughed it off, though as he did, an idea began to form. He was looking for ways to break the ice, and what was a common thing two wrestlers did in LAW when they encountered each other.

”Maybe you could show me some of your moves?” He looked around, taking stock of the room. Looked big and sturdy enough for them to have some fun. ”A little sparring match?”

[ZorzLeth]

Kasumi listened to Theo and noted his lack of confidence, but then perked an eyebrow up when he suggested a spar. She smirked as she said, "Well, then I should've charged for more than showing off my...other moves." Now, that was clearly a joke as she winked at Theo. As they talked, their bodies were gently brushing against each other.

"But you got me for all night." Kasumi then said, "So we got more than enough time for a little spar." As her hands remained on Theo's biceps, she was curious if Theo's hands, which were still on her waist, would move around and feel more of her body.

"What kind of rules do we want to use?" Kasumi said as she cocked her head in a sexy manner, "And do we want a wager or just keep it a simple spar?"

[BlackAkuma]

Silly as it might’ve been to challenge a stripper he just met to a wrestling match, it made a sort of sense in Theo’s mind. He was still a bit nervous, but this was an avenue they were both familiar, a connection he could draw on. It was already doing wonders for his nerves.

Besides, it would be fun. And it wasn’t like he couldn't use the practice.

”Rules, rules…” He pondered for a moment, and in that moment noticed that his hands were making his way to her thigh without asking for his brain’s consent, as if drawn by magnetism. Kasumi didn’t seem to mind, though, so why should he?

”How about submission? For now. We can try something else a little later, if you’re up for it. As for a wager, yeah, sure why not?” He shrugged and fished around or a quick idea. ”Winner gets to do whatever he wants.” He blinked. ”Or she wants.”

[ZorzLeth]

"That sounds like a fun idea." Kasumi said in response to Theo's suggestion of a submission match. The bed that they had was large enough to be a ring for them to use. She then felt Theo's hand reaching down to her thigh. She shifted a bit more closer to Theo, allowing him the chance to feel other parts of her body as they spoke.

"Well, I guess I got a whole match to think about what I want. How about you? What would you want?" Kasumi said, as she was curious about Theo's thoughts.

[BlackAkuma]

Now that he was calming down, Theo had more to really notice how soft and pleasing Kasumi was to the touch - she seemed to be inviting him to touch more of her body, and he was sorely tempted to accept that invitation. His hands roamed higher, finding her hips and running across them with a smooth touch.

It was a nice distraction, as she bounced his question back at him - what did he want, exactly? She wasn’t a genie in a bottle, there were only so many things she even had the power to give. One came to mind, though…

”A kiss?”

Theo said it without thinking, almost a random blurt. He rubbed the back of his head, a little sheepish. ”If that’s not too forward. Of course.”

[ZorzLeth]

As Theo said that, Kasumi merely nodded with a soft smile. Under normal circumstances, what Theo would say would be too forward. However, this was not normal circumstances and not in a normal place.

"Fair enough." Kasumi merely said with a nod, while looking at where they will wrestle. She would then turn back to Theo, "Submission match with a special wager for the winner. Anything else?"
