Branching Out (for APlaying)

[CaptainL]

The force Yuna needed to draw on in order to execute such a throw had definitely left her drained. Even now, her muscles tingled with soreness, and her chest rose and fell with labored gasps as sweat dripped down her skin. She wasn't used to using such force - but then, she did have the size advantage that allowed her to do so, if she put her mind to it. And it seemed that Garlim could see the potential there!

As tired as Yuna was, she began to look up toward her trainer with a smile on her face. "You...think so?" she huffed. "Truth be told, that was just me improvising..." But the pressure wasn't off Yuna yet - as Garlim noted, Yuna had relied on her size and weight to carry her in her matches. That was usually enough - but when it came to technical aptitude, she was lagging behind the curve. She took a pause as she thought that over, but nodded her head. It was true that she hadn't really trained much in those sorts of disciplines. If she was going to become a stronger, more well-rounded wrestler, it would serve Yuna well to cover some of those gaps.

"My hardest opponents, hmm..?" Yuna needed a moment to stop and think about that. Most of the time, she found, her typical repertoire of smothers and squashes served her well enough. But she couldn't deny that there were times it couldn't carry her. "Well, there was the Black Lioness. I suppose part of that is on me for underestimating her, but I wasn't prepared for just how strong she really was, and I couldn't contend with her power moves. Then there's Elizabeth Graham. Like you said, I figured that she was too small to pose too much of a threat, but her craftiness caught me off guard, and she had her ways of evening the odds. So...I guess I really do try to solve everything with just being big, huh?" She rubbed at her head - the problem seemed so obvious when she put it that way!

How on earth can someone her age be super sexy, but at the same time super tender in expressing herself? That just brought out the charisma of this woman that much more. From the way she commented on her answer, the blonde goddess seemed to be correct in her point. The opponents that Yuna would find most difficult to face would be varied, but the fields to cover would be to have a repertoire of counterattacks, but above all endurance.

Generally women of Yuna's age do not have the possibility of enjoying a very good resistance, especially with her size, they tend to be exhausted even more easily with a physical activity that for athletes like Garlim would be a simple warm-up. Although in this case it wouldn't hurt to help Yuna to acquire better lungs... But first, Garlim couldn't resist the urge to give Yuna a warm hug, just to feel her soft skin. “Aaaaw! It's been a long time since I've met such a tender woman. I'm impressed that someone like you has the courage to stand up to very strong women's. I love that aptitude!” Said the blonde goddess before turning away. “Very well, in that case we need to work more on your durability. You'll need to know how to hold on and know how to control your breath.”

After saying this, Garlim would grab Yuna's shoulder as she pulled her to her feet. Now that Yuna was exhausted, it was the perfect time to push her beyond her limits. “It's time for you to get to know the canvas well Yuna! First pitch!” Starting with some toughness, Garlim would demonstrate her great strength by carrying Yuna on her shoulders until she had her face down. Garlim knew some hard power moves from pro wrestling, and knew how she should employ them without leaving great damage to her opponents. So regardless of how hard the move might seem, Yuna was with a professional in every area.

It was then that after a few seconds leaving Yuna on her shoulders, Garlim would drop down causing Yuna to fall on her shoulders.

Yuna had come from humble beginnings, taking a career in wrestling as a last-ditch effort to support her family as a single mom during difficult times, but coming to LAW had propelled her into stardom. For whatever reason, there was something about her that set her apart from the rest of the roster and made the fans eager to come back for more every time, and that had carried the brunette to greater and greater heights. It had also done wonders for her self-confidence, and seeing her become a figure of such fame - and appeal - to so many people had only encouraged her to be more outgoing and to take pride in what she did. But in spite of it all, Yuna had never fallen into the trap of thinking she was better than anyone else. Even when she had fame and fortune, she still carried herself as she always had - as an average middle-class single mom.

It seemed that Garlim was moved by that - so moved, in fact, she leaned in and threw her arms around Yuna then and there! Yuna didn't see it coming - and she was honestly a bit taken aback by how forthright Garlim was. "O-Oh-!" she blurted out. "Well...thank you-! I try!" She smiled - even if she was surprised, she could at least appreciate the sentiment.

It was time for the lesson to continue, though. And Yuna nodded her head to the blonde as she rose to her feet, paying close attention to what Garlim had to say. At least, she did until Garlim spun her off her feet - and held her upside down in the air! At that, Yuna's jaw dropped. It seemed unthinkable that Garlim could possibly lift a woman of her size with such ease - and for that matter, it seemed a bit sudden to jump to something this extreme so quickly!

"W-Wait, wait-!" Yuna cried, her eyes darting nervously back and forth across the ring. "Hold on! Don't you think this is...well, a little bit much to start out with!?" But no matter what she said, it wouldn't stop Garlim from dropping straight down - and spiking Yuna onto her shoulders! As the ring shook beneath her, a shudder went through the heavyweight's spine, causing her hips to buck and her legs to kick. In her moment of shock, Yuna had no time to brace herself - and now, the impact had driven the air out of her lungs, leaving her body to sag under its own weight as she began to sink down with a groan!

The execution of a move like this kind of Suplex was not an easy thing, the slightest miscalculation and someone could break their neck. Yuna had very good reason to be in panic, something that was amusing to watch the blonde goddess as she searched for the point of balance while holding a body as heavy as Yuna's in the air.

Once she got a good balance, she dropped her body next to Yuna's on the ring. The impact shook the ring completely, as well as the body of the more mature woman whose curves were shaken by the impact. Garlim could feel every ounce of the hundred-plus-pound woman's weight on her arm and shoulder, which was somewhat painful for her, but she had managed to contain the fall successfully.

Yuna's body began to collapse to the canvas as she let out a groan, ending up falling with a thud. On the other hand Garlim gently stepped back, letting her spar partner's head rest comfortably on the canvas, proceeding to simply sit on her knees as she saw if Yuna would recover from the hard impact.

Garlim was certain that this would be the case, for regardless of the fall, it was probably the blonde goddess' own arm that was hurt the most in this case. So as soon as she saw Yuna react, Garlim would not take long to help her sit up and then take her by both hands and place her knee behind her companion's back. “Alright honey, I won't be gentle, I'm going to treat you like any opponent would.” She said as she began to pull Yuna's arms towards to her and stretched it back.
