Closed ◆ I can still recall our last summer
[ It was finally the night of the festival.
The young boy was ecstatic to finally spend some time outside the workshop with his teacher. He was surprised that she actually said yes, but was excited to no end.
When Keiichi first told his father about accidentally becoming an apprentice to the all-famous, Saber, he was flabbergasted to say the least. Although after a few minutes he cried out in joy, proud that his son was going in his father's footsteps and inheriting the 'artistic sense' as he called it.
He'll glance at his watch and smile. The time to meet was at hand. With flowers in his hand, he was hoping that she'll accept them. ]
Well it's almost time.
Nyehehe, if all goes well, this can be my big chance~!

[ Keiichi will scale out the whole tank with a determined glint in his eye. He had to have the perfect scoop. Steady Keiichi... don't and with a swell scoop, fished the goldfish in to his paddle with a smile.]
Alright! Mission accomplished. See this is exactly how to do--ah!
[ The fish suddenly flopped into the tank the minute he nearly finished that sentence. ]
...My fish.
no subject
[A smirk rises to her face.]
But the battle is not yet over! A winner has yet to be determined.
[Not one to be defeated by such a quick loss, Saber snatches up a new paper net and leans over the tank, eyeing the fish. She makes a swipe, but misses. She then tries again, successfully catches the fish, but it falls through again.
On her next try, she successfully catches the fish--and it doesn't fall through!]
Umu! What at first seems impossible can be overcome. What a fine challenge this is! Come, my young apprentice, don't dare fall behind!
[Aaand she goes in to try and catch another, having the mindset that they're competing for number rather than one victory. Better join in, too, Keiichi, before she tries to catch them all!]
no subject
[ He'll watch as Saber successfully catches a fish and claps at her effort, but then... his face falters as Saber continuously scoops for fish. At this rate, Saber was to be the magikarp--fish master! ]
Ah! Keiichi Maebara, this is not the time to space out.
[ He'll grab a paddle and with a roar, will attack the tank with it. In which people will now stare at them with interest. ]
SDFHSKD MAGIKARP MASTER
[The presence of a growing crowd only spurs her on further. a growing pile of broken paddles accumulates beside her while the number of fish she catches are barely bagged in time by the person manning the booth. Those, too, are slowly growing in number on her other side. The score so far is:
Saber-6
Keiichi-?
Saber decides to add fuel to the fire. She speaks to the crowd.]
Today certainly is fortunate! All of you, my loyal observers, shall be gifted one fish each at this competition's end.
Disappoint no one, apprentice!
oh yes! Saber will evolve them into Gyarados
[ However even though he said that, his paddles kept breaking and fishes kept jumping. It just seemed like they preferred being fished by Saber. ]
Come on fish! I can't afford to lose, let me catch you~
[ The only response was a fish spitting water at his face. ]
Why you!
[ So far Keiichi has only taken four fish, which compared to Saber was nothing ]
no subject
The hopes and dreams of the children in the crowd rest upon your shoulders, my disciple. Do not let the fish gain the upper hand.
I would also be severely unhappy to find that a hand-chosen apprentice of mine is incapable of catching a single fish, after all.
no subject
--Ack!
[ Hearing her say 'incapable of catching a single fish' just made his manhood slightly fall. No way is he going to take that, just no way! So Keiichi turns back to the fish and with swift glides, catches a few more fish. ]
Yield to my strength fish! Ahahahaahaha!
no subject
[A broad grin stretches over Saber's face. It seems he's finally understood! She couldn't have said it better herself.
The number of fish in the tank quickly begins to dwindle, and soon, only one fish remains, skittering through the water nervously and rapidly in a valiant attempt to avoid either one of their paddles. From the looks of the bagged fish on either of their sides, the number is tied.]
It seems that our challenge is nearing its finale, my young apprentice. The winner shall be determined with the capture of this fish. Make me proud and don't hold back!
[That said, she lunges for the fish to try and secure that victory for herself.]
no subject
[ Keiichi will send one last grin to his teacher before lunging in as well. There was no way he could lose now. One more fish, just one more fish to catch. He was determined to catch it without any cost!
...However, a 'cat' just happened to wander around at the time and trip the youth into the fish pool. Yeep. Not good. ]
no subject
...Hoh, well, [she huffs in slight irritation,] I suppose throwing yourself in with heart and soul is one way to obtain certain victory.
no subject
[ Keiichi sits there grumbling at his drenched clothing. To think he would be drenched on his (probably only) night with teacher. ]
I'm sorry, teach...
no subject
Umu! You need not apologize, my apprentice. It appears the winner has been decided, in any case.
[She points to Keiichi's head, where the fish is flopping around, nearly tangled in his wet hair.]
1/2
[ Keiichi was confused at her smile. There was no way he could have won. He fell into the pool for oyashiro-sama's sake. Though when her finger pointed to his head, he reached hand up there and scooped the flopping fish into his hand.
Realization in 3... 2... 1...]
Well what do you know! Hey little guy.
2/2
[ Ah. He couldn't let Saber hear him muttering away. She could get ideas from even the words 'punishment game'. Welp. Keiichi shut up. ]
