L.A.W. - League of Anime Wrestling

Akari chuckled, the woman's crass and carefree attitude was amusing. It certainly fit the atmosphere of the club but she knew that she wasn't just talking big for no reason. No, she could tell that Tanner was a woman with some spice to her. She liked that. She seemed to have this dangerous kind of mystique to her, it was attractive. The way she just casually talked and acted, it wasn't some tough girl act while trying to play it cool, it was genuine.

"Well, I dunno about guys...I'm more into a cute gal myself. Though you've got something wrong, Tanner. We're not tens." She replied, taking a swing of her drink. "We're ELEVENS, dammit." She said with a fiery attitude. "Girl's like us, we run these clubs from open to close, day in and day out." She said, leaning closer and closer, smiling at her until...

*Chu~*

A soft pair of lips pressed against Tanner's cheek, a kiss left by the Sea Turtle. She smiled and winked. "So, going off your own words...I think I just picked up the hottest girl in the club." She said, teasing her. "Also, I'm only playing this gig because I'm gonna be in town for a while thanks to my other job. I was really itching to try and play a live crowd, I need that reaction, that energy, that SPARK. Nothing beats playing for an audience, seeing what songs make them tick."

Tanner nodded along, her toothy grin growing deeper as Akari gassed the both of them up. "Damn straight, sis." Her eyes fluttered down to Akari's soft-looking lips, and she almost moved in to meet her -- until the peck landed at Tanner's cheek instead! She followed the Sea Turtle's face with a snarl, nipping at air instead of closing the distance with a kiss. It'd be the last time tonight she let her go like that, but there was a time and place for everything.

"Side gig, huh?" Because of course it was. Akari wanted the spark, yeah, and she got it. Nah, she got the whole damn thunderstorm in this crowd, shaking the joint from floor to ceiling. If Akari hadn't popped off yet, it was only a matter of time. "I'd say I'm surprised you can't make a killin' off those sick beats, but I'm stuck here for a bit'a annoyin' shit too. Guess even a couple of elevens can get tied down." She raised her drink, cheers-ing to the idea.

When she finished, she leaned casually on the bartop. "Anyway, sounds like you're new 'round here, yeah? I ain't been around too long myself, but I know some sick spots around here. You might'a noticed on your way in, but it's basically a 24/7 festival in these streets. Fried shit to eat, weird shit to buy." It wasn't the way that Tanner usually preferred to ask a chick to get outta here with her, but maybe there was fun to be had with Akari outside the bedroom. "You game?"

Akari cheered, downing her shot and elegantly wiping her lips with a napkin. "Well, I do this more for fun but...I've gotten plenty of bites for my music. Though I'm not looking for a career as an audio engineer. At least, not yet...I'm young, I wanna see the world and do what I wanna do before I get too old to do it. Before I get stuck behind a sound system working for someone else, I wanna live while I've still got this feeling of 'freedom' in my veins." She said, looking optimistic and bright-eyed.

"Life's too precious to take it slow and steady. A lot of people like to tell me to be safer but...there's a difference in being safe and being too afraid to do anything with a risk." She said. "You, Tanner, scream nothing but risk to me...Whatever game you've got planned, will certainly to some questionable choices..." She said, teasing her with a sultry smile, putting her glass down. "And I'm ALL up for that kind of fun~" She said. "Lead the way~"

"'Questionable choices' is my middle name, Akari." With a cheeky grin plastered all over her face, Tanner nodded approvingly at the Japanese girl's flirts. "Risk it is, then." She downed the rest of her drink, slapped a woefully insufficient wad of bills on the counter, and hopped off the stool. After Akari did the same, Tanner quickly wrapped her arm around the DJ's hip and started to usher her out of the club.

Through the throng of flirters and partiers was the sweet release of a cool night's air. Japan was fairly temperate compared to her hometown, but anything would've been more comfortable than the swamp of sweat they just came out of. Now the first step to bringing a hottie home was done: Getting said hottie to leave the bar with her. Usually, she'd be in a hurry to get the girl horny and take her home, but it'd be a waste to not hit the town with Akari, yeah? Besides, "the town" was almost definitely on the way.

"I've gotten t'know these 1AM streets like the back'a my hand," she told the Sea Turtle. "So why don't you point us in a direction, maybe towards your place or a train station or wherever you gotta be." The reference to where she wanted to end up was as unsubtle as Tanner herself, but there were rules to these kinds of things. Thin veiling was better than none at all. "And I'll let you know when we hit somethin' you might like. What're you in the mood for, anyway? I might be fiendin' for some tempura, personally, but there's lotsa cool shit out here. Food, drinks, weird little booths selling random shit."

"My phone's GPS says that we just have to cross the bridge to get back near my apartment...seems to be a lot of street vendors in the way though." She said, pointing forward but to the left slightly, a bridge in the background beyond a sea of tents, markets, shops, and the like...

"Hm, what to do? What. To. Do...?" She said, pondering. "How will I ever get home to my comfortable bed? I'll need an EXPERT navigator to help lead the way and bring me home safe and sound~." She said, clinging onto the back of Tanner, hugging her gently, kissing her neck. "If we happen to make a stop somewhere, I wouldn't mind checking it out...but you gotta promise to keep me safe, okay~?" She said. "I need a big strong girl like you to keep me feeling secure, no one else is capable to do this job other than you Tanner." She said, punctuating her sentence with another kiss. "Besides...even if I make it home...I still need someone to share that bed with~" She said, trying to rile up and fluster Tanner, wanting to give all of her attention to her and really make the woman feel warm and fuzzy.

"Think you're up for the task, Tanner~?"

She could just feel the nerdy lil' quest marker popping up with a ding. Just past a bunch'a stores and across a bridge was the bed of a total babe. It was a win-win: Every distraction at the night market would be almost as much fun as what came after. Tanner hummed with smug satisfaction, ready to set off towards the next part of her night.

But then a sultry voice called out to her. Close. Warm. Every word rolled out of Akari's lips and washed over Tanner's ear. Feather-light kisses dotted her neck. She craned, showing Akari her crook with a sigh that turned into a growl. "Careful," she warned the other girl. Her voice was low, deep in her throat. "Keep playin' with fire and we might not even make it to your place."

It would have been so easy. Just pin her up against the wall and go to town. Hell, that probably wasn't even that far outta pocket outside a club like this. Would've been a fitting punishment for being such a damn tease too. "Hhh..." Why not tease her right back instead, though? As she settled her head back into place, Tanner suddenly bent at the knees, popped her partner up onto her back, and stood -- giving Akari a piggyback ride!

"Up ya go, you goddamn tease." Hopefully that was enough of an answer to her question. They were even closer now, and every step that Tanner took town the street would jostle and rub the two of them just a little more.

"Lemme know if anything catches your eye... Hope ya ain't a lightweight, 'cuz shots and gyoza sounds like a good time to me."

"D'awww...but I LIKE playing with fire...especially when it's nice, warm, and sexy-looking..." She said, teasing Tanner a little more. "But you're right, can't go TOO far now. I just wanted to put a few images into your mind~" She said, before suddenly letting out a partial yelp as she was scooped up by Tanner for an impromptu piggyback ride, surprising the Turtle greatly as she chuckled, blushing as she adjusted to the scenario, clinging to Tanner's body, pressing her chest to Tanner's backside, getting nice and comfortable as she continued to tickle her neck with gentle kisses. "Mmmm, what a view~" She said. "Now, I may be a tease...but tonight, I'm YOUR tease."

With that said, the two continued on through the streets of the city's bustling nightlife...As every step gave her a nice little bump, Akari hung on to the Wild Child's body, holding onto her and nuzzling against the back of her newfound acquaintance's head. She cooed and purred, softly blowing into Tanner's ear every now and then as she continued to keep both of their libidos primed and ready.

"Ooo, more alcohol and food? Sounds good to me...but not too much, 'kay...I want you sober enough to feel EVERY single thing that I'm going to do to you."

Tanner shivered against Akari's breath, and she started to return the favor. As she carried the sexy DJ on her back, Tanner's fingers took long, languid strokes across Akari's hanging calves and thighs. The Floridian felt up as much of the other girl as she could without risking a drop.

Meanwhile, her brain did the math: Nothin' boozier than a light rice wine + just enough water to keep them alive + a trapezing walk through the town = dynamite pussy, all night long.

The jig was up, of course. She didn't need to impress the chick with a night out at the market. They were gonna rock each others' worlds anyway. But even someone like Tanner had standards, y'know? If you say you're gonna Netflix and chill, you gotta at least turn on the TV.

Throwing away any regrets for her choice of late-night excuses with a low guffaw, she opened her mouth once more. "I'll make you a deal, then. One shot of sake, half a glass of water, and the smallest, craziest fuckin' plate they got, at each place, for however long it takes to get back. Because you're right. As much as I wanna show you some of my favorite places, what I really want is to tear all those damn clothes off."

It didn't take long to reach the first booth, and just as promised: A handful of gyoza filled with God knows what, one cup of water to share between the two of them, and two chilled shots. Tanner raised her shot. "So. What're we toastin' to first, hot stuff?"

"Oh, you wanna tear MY clothes off?" Akari responded, teasing Tanner by giving her chest a soft grope. "Depending on how the night goes, I might just snatch that cute-looking shirt off of you first~" She said, cuddling against Tanner's backside as she softly moans. After reaching their first stop, Akari hops down off of Tanner's back, sitting down next to her and partaking in a small, basically sample-size serving of some form of gyoza. "Ooo...it looks dangerously appetizing. I love it." She exclaimed, grinning with this wonderful sense of curiosity and glee, letting the intrigue of the food's contents lead her mind. With a cup of water between them and two shot glasses, Akari took her glass and raised it up. "Two new experiences and meeting new people~" She said, smiling, drinking her round of the beverage alongside the Floridian beauty.

"To new experiences and fucking new people," Tanner agreed. With some slight editorialization, of course. The shot went down smooth as rice wine should. Then the gyoza. Oh man, the gyoza. She tucked into the half-plate between them, nomming right down on one of those dough-wrapped suckers with all the meat and chives and-

"Is this fuckin' eel?" she asked incredulously. It wasn't her thing, but she didn't hate it. More importantly, it was cool as hell, and Mama didn't raise no bitch. She slipped another one in her mouth, giggling at Akari and watching to see her reaction. Then a sip of water, down that glass, and... they were on their way.

---

The rest of the night went a lot like that. Stall after stall, dish after dish, shot after shot. Even a few shops here and there, and of course the occasional potty break. Water was healthy and water prevented hangovers, but it also caused a few breaks in the night. Either way, Tanner and Akari partied their way across the plaza. With each stop, Tanner got closer and closer to her companion for the night. A scoot of a stool here, a hand along the back there. Murmured flirting and breaths too close but not close enough.

Eventually, they got to an apartment. Tanner eyed her new friend hungrily before stepping ahead of her. She positioned herself between Akari and the door, taking care not to block the other woman's access to the doorknob that would really start the night. Then she gave a sly grin.

"So. This the place?"
